Death Game
In this high-stakes death game manga, high schooler Akira Shiroyanagi discovers his power "Creep" activates only when opponents underestimate him - leading to brilliant mind games where he: (1) Manipulates first impressions within 5-second meetings, (2) Turns enemy abilities against their users, and (3) Outthinks killers in a ¥1 billion tournament. The series delivers: - Unique power mechanics based on perception - Cerebral battles with life-or-death consequences - A protagonist who weaponizes being underestimated - Shocking twists on ability matchups. As Akira climbs the ranks, he faces opponents with increasingly broken abilities, forcing him to exploit psychological loopholes in a system where powers manifest based on initial assumptions.
