These two shows differ quite a lot in tone and plot, but they both focus on the philosophy and reasoning behind why people lie. They both explore the many reasons why people lie to protect themselves, protect others, to hurt others, to brag, or simply out of fear. They cover the topic with nuance, individual and complex characters, and don't tell you what's right or wrong, but simply talk about it.
In the city of romance, the FL lies to protect herself due to trauma and ends up compulsively lying quite often. She works through her anxiety and grows as an individual whilst dealing with her lying until she begins to feel safe enough to be honest.
In Usotoki Rhetoric, there are mysteries each episode with the lead characters having to unravel the lies of the people involved. The FL is able to hear lies and she learns the reasons why people lie in each episode which helps her to reflect on herself and her ability.
