A word of warning: you will cry. Piano prodigy Kōsei Arima lost the ability to hear his own playing after his mother died.

The manga is a short, powerful read.

Do not read spoilers. Go in blind. Humanity lives inside massive walls to protect themselves from Titans—giant, mindless humanoid monsters. The first episode is one of the most shocking in television history. Over four seasons, the perspective flips several times, forcing you to question who the real "monster" is. The manga is finished, and the anime adaptation is a technical marvel. | Category | Anime Title | Manga Title

Imagine a high school genius who finds a notebook that kills anyone whose name he writes in it. Death Note is a cat-and-mouse game between Light Yagami (who wants to become the god of a new world) and the detective L. It is cerebral, addictive, and proves that anime isn't just for kids. The manga is a brisk read that improves upon the anime's rushed second half.
These stories prove that quiet moments can be just as gripping as battles.
