Amō must have read death note and said "I can do that".

Sounds like Death Note but in really bad taste.

Mangaka seem to just get angrier with age. Must be the effects of lifelong virginity.

How great is the chance that this will get licensed in English? I wanna read this.

A boy, not an adult man?

Death Note without the notebook.

Still, that doesn't mean it won't be entertaining.

@Animechic420 He's half Japanese-Jewish.

Fan of Oku?

What does him being Jewish have to do with him being a teenager on a killing spree?

I also thought about Death Note.

Hmm, I might give this a shot if people say it's good.

0% especially if it contains social commentary that's similar to how it happens in the US and Europe. Although if the manga goes that route, it would be more interesting to read.

*sigh* Nevermind. You are not the chosen one.

Depending on how Amo goes about it, this manga could either be brilliant or tasteless considering the landscape of crime in the western world...

...doubt this is getting a western release any time soon. At least, I would be surprised.

None. Because of the subject matter. If mere possession of Death Note notebooks tend to cause not so nice incidents in certain locations, I'd hate to know what this would entail...

I'll keep an eye out for this one; if it turns out well there's a chance it'll see a release stateside, and I'm a big fan of Pyshco-Pass's first season and film so that's could be pretty good.
