Do you like death note?

[JackFrost]

I started watching it a couple days ago, it’s pretty good. Is the manga good too? I haven’t read it yet. Can anyone give me recommendations of any shows that are like it?

According to my recollection it was a good anime. I heard that the manga had a slightly different ending.

death note was my 2nd anime ever! i thought it was really fun, light was so egotistical and ridiculous that i loved watching his schemes but was totally rooting for him to screw up. though i will say... the first half had me way more invested than the later parts V_V

you might already know this because it's super famous, but the first similar show that comes to mind is Monster. it's a pretty thrilling mystery and it's also just pleasant to see the main character go around and do nice things for people.

I’ve heard of monster before but never watched it is it good?

You might enjoy The Promised Neverland, which I thought was pretty similar in terms of characters Plotting, Planning and Otherwise Outsmarting Eachother at basically every single moment. I heard season 2 was incredibly bad though, I've only seen the first one. IMO it's perfectly fine to just stop watching after season 1 but that's up to you of course!

I saw it but only season 1 it was good tho!

I think you might enjoy death parade, perfect blue, paranoia agent or Junji Ito's work. More leaning towards the horror side with Ito but I still think it matches well into some of the themes of death, fear, corruption of man etc.

I read juni ito one night and heard a noise and got scared there might be someone in my bed and stayed up all night so no pls. :TnT:

I DID THAT TO MYSELF TOO LOL. I would heavily recommend paranoia agent then, more in the crime/thriller side

seconding the death parade recommendation, and would like to add death billiards (short it's based in the same universe as iirc)!

I got bored and started reading more Junji Ito it’s really good!
