Hello, I'm looking for intresting anime and manga about assassination.
The reason is mostly because I watched Phantom: requiem for the phantom and got hooked
If you have any recommendations please let me know

Dendrobates is a pretty classic example. The protagonist has no qualms about his job either, which is always a plus.
Freesia is similar. Though the MC isn't very likeable in this one, it's arguably more realistic.
Other classic assassin/hitman stories:
Gunslinger Girl
Ordinary ±
New York no Benkei
Deathco
Number
Number Five
With a supernatural bent:
Luck Stealer
Andromalius
Arachnid
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu - Not in the typical fashion; more like assassination training than the professional variety.
Funouhan, maybe, but he's no ordinary killer: basically a psychological torturer who accepts hits just so that he can enjoy his hobby.
Akuma no Riddle - If you don't mind mild GL.
Akumetsu - If a vigilante who kills corrupt politicians of his own volition counts as an assassin, anyway.
Girl May Kill - Iirc, this mostly explores the psychological aspect rather than the actual killing.
12 Nin no Yasashii Koroshiya - Leo Murder Case -- Focuses more on one particular murder than on assassination as a whole, despite it being the MC's job.

If you don't mind a slightly comedic one, try Alyosha.
There's also Cynthia The Mission. Which is more action based. It has a bit of gore though.
There's Anonymous which is a bit short.
I have a few more at the top of my head that I don't remember the name for at the moment.

Thank you, I'll try them out.
And by the way I don't mind GL, the only genre I'm not into much is horror
