Deathnote or Bakuman

VS

Deathnote and Bakuman are both written by Ohba Tsugumi. Ohba Tsugumi is a fictional writer credited with writing the manga Death Note. His real identity (and gender) is a closely guarded secret. Some fans believe that Tsugumi Ohba is just a pen-name for Hiroshi Gamou. Obata Takeshi is the artist for both.

Deathnote is a story about Light Yagami who is a brilliant 17-year-old student, one of the top scorers on his exams in all of Japan. One day as he leaves school, he finds a mysterious black notebook on the ground with "Death Note" written on it. The first thing written inside: "The human whose name is written in the notebook shall die." Light decides to use this to cleanse the world of evil by killing all the criminals. On the scene comes L, ace detective, who's determined to find Light -- who the world now calls "Kira" -- and track him down, thus bringing us an epic psychological thrill ride.

Bakuman follows the story of high school student Moritaka Mashiro, a talented artist who does not know what he wants to do with his future. One day he draws a picture of Azuki Miho, a girl he is secretly fond of, during class and forgets the notebook at school. He comes back to find that his classmate Akito Takagi is waiting for him with his notebook. Takagi tries to convince Mashiro to become a mangaka, a manga artist, with him, only leading to Mashiro's disagreement. Mashiro goes home and thinks about his mangaka uncle, who had only one successful series before he died in obscurity. Mashiro is interrupted by a phone call from Takagi, who says that he is going to tell Azuki that Mashiro likes her. Mashiro runs down to Azuki's house to find Takagi waiting for him. Once Azuki comes out to meet them, Takagi tells her that he and Mashiro are aiming to be mangaka. Mashiro then learns that she wants to be a seiyū, a voice actor, and has shown promise in the field. Mashiro, once again thinking about his uncle, accidentally proposes to Azuki. She accepts. However, she will only marry him after they achieve their dreams. In addition, they cannot see each other until then.

These two mangas was serialized in Shonen Jump and both of them was made into an anime even though Bakuman just started airing in Oct.2, 2010. Deathnote was surely a hit and Bakuman will become a hit for sure because it is interesting. I'm not comparing both manga/anime, I just want to let you guys know that these two great anime was written by the same person and I want to know which of the two will become popular. Surely, Deathnote is popular but Bakuman can surpassed it but anyway congrats to the people who made this two mangas into anime because they are great! ♥_♥
