Preferably no romance!

My favorites that I've watched/watching in order

  1. Psychopath Diary
  2. Erased
  3. Terius Behind Me
  4. Death Note
  5. Liar Game (japanese)
  6. Theseus no Fune
  7. Tunnel
  8. Switched
  9. Voice
  10. Signal
  11. Kingdom
  12. Possessed

I also just started Kairos, Zombie Detective,  Alice in Borderland and Trick 

Shows that I've dropped after 1 episode or more: Circle, 365:Repeat the year, Life on mars, Memorist, Player,  The Guest, Uncanny Counter, Train, Sweet Home, Bad Guys, Black, Extracurricular, Strangers from Hell,  Special Labour Inspector Jo,

Thanks for the obscure recs Lou, those series look interesting

Does Kaitou Yamaneko have a depressing ending? Read a review that it was sad

Prison Playbook - a dark comedy about a famous baseball player going to jail (hint of romance but it’s not the main focus)

The Good Detective - an action thriller drama about a murder investigation

Leverage - a crime comedy drama about con artists
