manga featuring characters that engage in any form of self-harm.

if you know anymore series that fit into this category, please message me & i will add your contribution!

a mix of the genres so some game titles may be only horror and some may be only mystery but many go hand-in-hand, tried to do 1 per game to keep it simple

ones near the beginning are more on the horror and death game side while ones on the end are more on the mystery side

Cute characters must suffer.
A lot of these are the manga of anime that were in my anime stack. (I could be mistaken for some of them.) If you think I should add or remove a manga, send me a message, and I'll consider them. A short, non-spoiler reason why it's dark is appreciated.

manga/light novel series based on rpg maker horror games.

Historie and Ookiku Furikabutte are on hiatus.

Otherworldly and/or monstrous features creeping into character design, art style, and/or otherwise general aesthetics; prominent uses of orange, black, and stripes, perhaps even gothic and/or chilling fairy tales—whether or not it's actually set in Halloween, these anime fit the spirit (or at least at any Hot Topics near you!) ⋆

I'm surprised that there isn't a name to this specific kind of aesthetic I've been craving. I seriously want to see more cute anime that embraces the spookiness in ways like Soul Eater or Hells did.


Non-manga examples:
Over the Garden Wall, Coraline, Corpse Bride, Devil's Candy, Tim Burton, Gekidan Inu Curry
