So I've been really into psychological anime recently my favorites being one outs and death note.

What are the best psychological anime?

Also it doesn't have to have this but I would really like a character(s) where they can out smart everyone and stuff like that

Thank you and also happy new years!

psychologicals a pretty broad term, could you specify?

Monster without a doubt a classic its a little slow though.
for something shorter and more on the edge of your seat i recommend boku dake ga inai machi or mirai nikki. both arent really my taste but i think if you enjoyed death note you will get something out of those two.

Shinsekai Yori is by far my favorite Psychological anime. It's truly unique.

Some others:
Aoi Bungaku Series - This is the series that I deem the most psychological. If that even makes sense. It's the one that really pulled me into the psychological genre.

Yuri Kuma Arashi - Yuri anime with a lot of hidden meanings. It's not what you'd expect. It's one that gets better with each episode.

Ergo Proxy - Honestly, just a must-watch for psychological lovers.

Steins;Gate - I think you would like this since you liked Zankyou no Terror. They have very different plots, but still give off kinda similar vibes in my opinion.

Hmmm... I'd probably say Code Geass or Ghost in the Shell these are both wonderful psychological anime. However, if your feeling bold you should try My Future Diary.

A pretty short one but Alice in Borderland in good, and if you want one with plot twists and all check out Tengen Topan Gurren Lagaan.
