1. Dark Gathering, the one with the Creepiest Art style
Dark Gathering is currently as part of the Summer 2023 anime line up alongside Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead.
Dark Gathering is a legit dark and horror anime featuring Keitaro Gentoga, a college freshman who after an accident ends up with the power of attracting ghosts and spirits but chooses not to get involved with the unknown.
He encounters Yayoi Hozuki who posses the creepiest looking eyes of all time and just like Kyoutarou she is also able to see the unknown.
But the catch with her is that she’s unable to attract spirits because of overwhelming presence.
Dark Gathering invites its viewers to accompany the ghost busting duo of Keitaro and Yoyoi on their haunting journey.
2. Mieruko-Chan, the one where Miko lives a Normal Life while ignoring Ghosts and Spirits
Miko Yotsuya for some reason is able to to see ghosts and spirits but doesn’t want to get involved with them. So she chooses to ignore them in order to live a normal life.
Mieruko-Chan anime will keep you on the edge of your seats with scenes where you don’t see ghosts in one panel and just the very next second they will appear out of nowhere.
Watching Miko successfully maintain a straight poker face while ghosts roam all around her is thrilling as hell.
Mieruko-Chan anime is sure to make your heart race but not in a good way.
Just like Tendo from Zom 100 tries to complete his bucket list while ignoring zombies, Miko also tries to live a normal life while ignoring ghosts.
3. Chainsaw Man, the one where Denji is a Pervy Devil Hunter
The Chainsaw Man manga is the most popular manga today.
Chainsaw Man received critical acclaim for its dark and unpredictable storytelling, unique art style and complex characters.
It has been praised for its subversion of Shonen manga tropes and its willingness to take risks with its narrative.
The CEO of Mappa quoted, Chainsaw Man anime was indeed a monetary success but failed to have the impact they were looking for something like their prior anime release, Jujutsu Kaisen had.
This could be the reason behind Chainsaw Man season 2 having no official release date yet.
Considering the immense hype behind the anime release due to the popularity of its manga, Chainsaw Man anime underdelivered in having a cultural impact, like Demon Slayer.
As someone who absolutely loved reading the Chainsaw Man manga and then watching the anime the way it was received, I was personally unhappy.
So, I would suggest you read the manga before watching the anime.
