About the series
A tense survival-game thriller from Casterman, Mirai Nikki (2009–2011) follows a lonely teenager who discovers his diary can predict the future—only to be thrust into a deadly contest where eleven other diary-holders must eliminate each other to become a god. Written and illustrated by Sakae Esuno, this 12-issue series is a cornerstone of the psychological horror genre, blending high-stakes paranoia with twisted character dynamics. Its gripping premise and ruthless pacing have made it a defining work of 2000s manga-inspired comics.
