Dark Fantasy Mystery Psychological Thriller Crime Suspense Supernatural Shonen Manga
Death Note Black Edition, Vol. 6 is the oversized, two-in-one collector’s format that crams 424 pages of Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata’s psychological thriller into one sleek, matte-black volume. This sixth installment lands readers in the white-hot midpoint of the Kira investigation, where Light Yagami and L’s deadly chess match escalates into a global manhunt. Obata’s cinematic panel work—inked in rich, high-contrast blacks—feels even more dramatic at the larger trim size, making every narrowed eye, flicked pen, and shinigami grin leap off the page. If you’ve been following the story in the standard singles, the Black Edition’s seamless page flow and heavier paper stock deliver a premium, binge-ready upgrade.
What makes this copy a smart grab is its “very good” condition: crisp, unmarked pages, no corner creases, and absolutely no smoky odors—traits that matter when you’re building a display-worthy set. At 460 g and 214 mm tall, the book sits proudly on a shelf yet is still light enough to read one-handed. Because Viz printed the Black Editions in shorter runs than the originals, later volumes like Vol. 6 already command higher demand in the used market, so securing a clean copy now saves you hunting (and paying more) later.
For newcomers, this volume is the hinge of the series—major character fates pivot here, and reading past it means stepping into spoiler territory, so starting from Vol. 1 is essential. For seasoned fans, owning the Black Editions future-proofs your collection: the consistent spine design, extra耐用 paper, and larger art showcase Obata’s detail in a way digital scans simply can’t match. Whether you’re a 9-12 reader drawn to the supernatural notebook concept or an adult who appreciates moral gray zones and masterful suspense, Vol. 6 delivers that signature Death Note rush—tight pacing, moral quandaries, and cliff-hangers that beg for the next book.
