Hi! So i wanted suggestions about mangas with suicide theme
Like, Orange (TAKANO Ichigo)~Kakeru kill himself because his mother's suicide. One of the saddest mangas that i had read
And Tomodachi Gokko (MOMOCHI Reiko)~Midori kill herself because of bullying and she can't take it anymore. This manga made a huge shock on me because the way she was bullied.
Pretty much... I want that the characters to be lead to kill them self because the death of a family member or bullying but that there is a chance so save them...

Kanojotachi no X-day
planning to blow up the school, more about being bullied/depressed
not a masterpiece, though. It's just fine.
Deep Love - Ayu no Monogatari
Confidential Confessions
neither of those is as good as Orange, but they might fit.

"Bungaku Shoujo" to Shi ni Tagari no Douke by NOMURA Mizuki/ KOUSAKA Rito has suicide as its main plot point. It's tagged as shounen, but it feels like a manga for both genders. A bleak, mysterious one full of suspense.
[color=#8A795D]"Stories are what death thinks he puts an end to.
He can't understand that they end in him, but they don't end with him."

To be savoured:
- Blood Alone by TAKANO Masayuki
- Otoyomegatari by MORI Kaoru
- Gangsta. by Kohske
- Seishun Kouryakuhon by AKIZUKI Sorata

Hi, have you read Virgin Ripper? Lol, don't let the name get to you ... I don't think it has anything to do with they storyline. It's pretty good 😃
I also read another one about suicide unfortunately I can't remember the name 😢 it was nice mystery.

I second Jisatsu Circle, but this oneshot is super depressing. If you like Junji Ito or horror in general, then try Black Paradox. To say whether or not the characters were saved is kind of a matter of opinion, but I like it. 🤣

Oh I've read Black Paradox too. Though I don't really like horror, I can say, Junji Itou's works are good.

Maybe H will also be worth a look...
One of the characters slowly breaks down and tries to kill himself by jumping out from a window, after his (ex-)girlfriend is about to distance herself from him.
And, if you don't mind webtoons, Diamond Dust (KANG Hyung-Gyu).
The female main character attempts suicide after she couldn't take the pressure of her partens anymore and she starts to feel like facing a dead end in her future path.
By the way, maybe the first post would have been nice to cover up the informations with a spoiler warning, because some people still haven't read those examples ... Like me. Sighs~
Edit: Just found another one with the intense Motto, Ikitai...
The story revolves about artificial intelligence and a case of murders done by a ghost, which kills the created "human version" of itself in the end after realizing.
"It's like love is a bonus in your life. Even without it, I'm just fine. I don't feel like pointlessly searching for it. You don't have to make yourself unhappy." (Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji)

Let Dai by Woon Soo-yeon

This is a fairly long series (15 volumes) and the suicide don't occur until halfway through. A female rape victim can't move on with her life and decides to end it. She fails her first attempt, but succeeds on the second try.
