And here I am answering to my soul's desire to read manga/manhwa.. (Despite planning to hold it off until Christmas break)
I'm looking for psychological/seinen titles, like Liar Game and Usogui, to read this weekend. The kinds that make you ask for more.. and more... and more.... ^_^

I'm not queasy 'bout violence, gore, or other sensitive topics, just as long as the story is good. :)


Hopefully, something that has at least 30 chapters.. :)


THANK YOU!!

(on a side note, have just finished reading Usogui37..... ah, Baku-san's scheming is always such fun^^)

thanks, powha!

Have already read Doubt before, so I'd try Higurashi no Naku Koro ni.
As it's been tagged Horror, I shall hold you responsible if I get too scared to sleep. Bwahahaha

My choice, maybe you've read some them, but well:
ES
Monster: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=127
Spiral: http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/spiral-r2312
Freesia: http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/freesia-r1312
the first story of Anamorphosis is good too, IMO similar premise to Doubt and other play or die genre, and rather tame than other Kago's works. But the other stories, well, guro.. I still hesitate to upload it here.
Koroshiya Ichi: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=2421

Battle royale is good. So I recommend it as well.
Also try Bloody Monday. it's not that alike with liar game but it's more on outwitting people so I guess you'll like it? :D

I have just finished the question arc of Higurashi.
That was scary T___T Especially when their eyes change.
And the scene at the hospital T_____T

you're welcome. I also love Higurashi by the way :D

Love it already, as well! I must say that that was one great read. Despite the heart-thumping scare and the goosebumps it brought me.

I watched anime version, but it was awsome (so i guess manga should be too :P)

I can't imagine myself watching the animé version alone.. I'd be scared out of my wits.

Truthfully most have been taken already but just to recommend one more http://www.mangareader.net/606/shiki.html

Shiki I personally like it but I don't know how others respond

there is a anime version but i'm not sure I would recommend it at least til after you have read the manga and well the novel is a lot different I guess

The hell. don't make me remeber it :S haha. When I'm reading it I feel like I'm one with them!

oh yeah. Shiki is good too! why did I forgot something as good as this? Though I'm not really fond of its anime adaptation.

lol sorry searched on google: Shiki Batoto and thought it would be good enough :/ but apparently my Google search failed me

Edit: apparently what I typed was this: Shiki chapter 1 batato

and due to this it ended up not showing damn me and my spelling mistakes :/

The best place to search for a title is the Comic section, the button is under Batoto sign on top of each page.

How about Gamble Fish?

I was gonna suggest Gamble fish too. What about Kaiji. It is somewhat similar to liar game. The art looks old but it grows on you.
