Platinum End

As you may know Platium End is writen by Obata, Takeshi and the manga is drawn by Ohba, Tsugumi. The same two who created arguably one of the best animes ever, Death Note. As for the anime Platinum End think about it as the reverse or inverse of Death Note. Light Yagami was given the Death Note and tried to instill himself as a god. As for Mirai Kakehashi, the MC of Platinum End, he was given powers by an angel but just wanted to live a normal life. Sadly though he found himself wound up in a competition competing for the title of "God".

Platinum End can easily remind Death Note, especially for the premise.
Both shows feature the main character receiving from a superior entity a power that is huge but can lead the user to abuse it for personal purpose, because it allows to take others life.

The main difference is that the first MC is evil and has distorted

if you've seen the first episode of platinum end you can agree with me: when i've seen an angel who follows the MC which has op superpowers i thought:"isn't it pretty similiar to ryuk and his death note?" well, the story keeps going following its vibe, so it's a dark and full of suspance show and you won't lack of cliffhangers

Both these series share a similar premise in which we see our main character gain god-like powers. The source material of the two has been done by the legendary duo Takeshi Obata and Tsugumi Ohba, creators also to Bakuman and Hikaru no Go. Death Note is a known classic and a great entry anime, and though at the time of writing Platinum End has only one episode out, I expect it will follow in Death Note's steps and be the same.

These two animes have many similarities to each other. Even the appearance of the main character of both is similar to each other. Some of the supernatural things in these two are very similar.
