“We need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us.”
- Kafka

Being one of my favorite classic writter, Kafka is also well know in the world for his enormous impact on the culture (not only in the litterature tho)

As said in the quote, Kafka thought that we need books that ''affect us like a disaster". Here is my list of manga that effected me a lot. Short list for now but I'm constantly trying to read this kind of stories so there will be updates.

Of course, big Trigger Warning, most of the folliwing stories aren't very pleasant to read, you may have trouble while reading them, depend on your sensibility and your traumas.

Recommended read order for all Psycho-Pass manga, novels, and light novels, based on release order.

Note that none of the novels/light novels and few of the manga have gotten an official English translation.

Not on MAL:
- Psycho-Pass 3 got a novel adaptation in November 2019, but it doesn't seem to be on MAL.
- Sinners of the System 1 and 2 also got a novel adaptation in November 2019, but the entry has yet to be approved. (https://myanimelist.net/manga/159120)
