Bloody Monday

I only realized the similarity with around chapter 22 of BM.

There is a mastermind with an initial (K and L). There are genius on both sides of the fighting line attacking with intellect and sleuth. Bloody Monday has more action and blood than Death Note and DN has more brains. There is mystery regarding both the protagonist and antagonist and their plans. Death is brought up on both and justice.

Shounen thrillers with lots of twists and turns.  Both sides play a game of mental chess and set up elaborate schemes to catch each other, and we get to watch it all unfold.

Both are shounen thrillers that involve masterminds playing mental chess with each other. Also involves lives at stake in the games between the opposing sides. Death is an integral theme in both plots.

Well to start both are battles being waged out in a mental battlefield, and each side are trying to tip the favor to their side which delivers intense scenes and moments that can not be easily forgotten. Pretty interesting read which keeps you wanting to read the next chapters until your done.

mind battles , mental chess , psychological thriller , exiting plots

I instantly thought of Death Note when reading Bloody Monday. They are both thrillers that involve a lot of elaborate plans in order for both sides to reach their objective. BM has more action, while DN has more mental planning. The main heroes and villains of each series are very intelligent. Both even have characters that have code names such as L(DN),and J and K(BM). They are both full of twists that make you want to keep reading until the very end. Luckily they are both relatively short. The art style is even very similar.

Both manga involve a mastermind who has a plan in mind to kill a lot of people, although this is for very different reasons in both of the manga. But this is exactly what makes this so interesting. After reading one of these stories you should read the other one to see the other side of what might happen to our world. If you liked one of them I highly recommend reading the other one as well

You want mind games? You got it.
You want mental chess? You got it.
You want gore and killing? You got it!

Both series have two intelligent protagonists who are fighting against each other. In Death Note, it is between Kira and L while in Bloody Monday, the protagonist is actually on the good side, like L and the antagonists are like Kira, who kill for "justice". You got two sides tryin' one-up each other through with fearsome tricks and traps. Both are extremely thrilling and exciting.

If you're into Death Note kinda stuff, like detectives, terrorists, strategies etc. Bloody Monday is for you. 

The story follows a high schooler who's secretly a pro level hacker and how he gets himself involved with International affairs and terrorist attacks and threats. 

Although I'll admit the story would've been a little more better if the the protag and his friends were to be adults instead of teenagers. But regardless I treat the protag and his gang as adults because i like it that way. It's upto you, him being an high-schooler is not that bad it's just my opinion. 

I'm a little surprised why this manga hasn't been animated. Anyways enjoy reading! read more

The concept of the story is very similar.
- Geniuses fight against each other.
- Revolves around starting and stopping something that can cause thousands and millions of people to die.
- Using people like pawns to proceed their own missions.

Emerging addpermalink

Both manga deal with combat against a disease. The differences are that the disease in Emerging has already broken out at the start of the manga, and develops naturally, whereas the disease in Bloody Monday is engineered. Bloody Monday deals with much more government conspiracy than Emerging.

Manga: Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex

Koukaku Kidoutai: Stand Alone Complex addpermalink

Both feature an elite counter-terrorist group and anti-crime unit in law enforcement and intelligence; with computer hacking being just as powerful as any other weapon in cyberwarfare. Ghost in the Shell is more near-future sci-fi , while Bloody Monday and its sequels is more modern, being set in the present with current weaponry and technology. Bloody Monday, as it's name implies; has a lot more blood, deaths, and occasional gore, while Ghost in the Shell has more android and cyborg innards being shot up, or exploded. Both have their fair share of surprises and twists, but Bloody Monday is almost based solely on betrayals and espionage at every corner as it's main features, where viewers should "expect the unexpected". That phrase has never more true than before.  read more

Billion Dogs addpermalink

Both have genius protagonists which are really smart and good with computers. The  plots are  kind of psychological with some police and government involved. The art is also similar.  

The difference is that mc in Billion Dogs is not exactly as nice as the mc in Bloody Monday. He's more evil and he doesn't use his talent for the greater good...

XS Hybrid addpermalink

This manga is extremely similar to bloody monday, im surprised not many people noticed.

I guess both are pretty obscure.

Not only do both of these manga have a similar style of the early 2000s.
Both series are about hackers.
And both series revolve around basicly a deadly or some kind of mutant virus.

Both protagonists are hunted by organizations and they have very similar personalities also trying to protect their family/friends.
While they are both very creative and go head to head with professional assassins or organizations.

The writing and dialogue even the slang is almost identical, i almost felt i was reading a spin off of the other series etc

Both will guarantee you constant tension and non-stop thrilling action. Bloody Monday tells the story of a genius high school hacker who fights (with help from his friends and his father's special police force) against a cult organization from unleashing a bio-weapon. Until Death Do Us Part tells the story of a girl who can very accurately estimate her own future, who will seek help from a blind swordsman (and a secret police organization) to escape from men who wants her power to predict the future.

Black Cat addpermalink

They both have similar aspects in the plot, such as the virus  in Bloody Monday and the virus near the end of the of Black Cat. Both protgists sometimes have split pupls and there nature seems to change. I think that they are both quite similar as they are both trying to stop people from spreeding viruses (near the end of Black Cat) and has a very complex plot. I think that is you like one you will like the other.

Alive: Saishuu Shinkateki Shounen addpermalink

Started with deadly crisis and phenomenon, these two manga shares very similar atmosphere. Both feels intense and a bit mature than the usual shonen series. However, they're still shonen series, and is shown by the similarity of having an MC with full of spirit. The major difference is that Alive has a strong supernatural theme in it and the fights are more physical, whereas in Bloody Monday the fights are more mind battles.

Guilty Crown addpermalink

Both manga involved secret organisation, male lead with supreme ability (hacking in BM and the 'Power of king' in GC ). Both of the male lead seemed to be a useless high school kid at first glance. And both mangas give off exciting feelings as you continue further. (I would recommend to watch the anime version of guilty crown too.) Give it a go and you'll see what I mean.
