Description: This is the story of a very smart student called Hirama Ren who is used to always getting the top results in his school, and is the chairman of the student's council. One day, he walks past a group of bullies and asks them to leave--and because of that, they decide to teach him a lesson. They decide to beat up a couple of guys and they reported it to the teachers, blaming him.

Hirama becomes enraged by it and and so he decides to attain some power that could allow him to change the world to a world that he wanted...one without such pathetic people..the people who hides from responsibilities, look for shelter from others when in trouble, etc.

Coincidentally, his vice-chairperson called him and asked if he was fine with her inviting a hypnotist for some event at school to hype up the school population. He thought it might be THE ability that he was looking for, so he agreed to it. During the "trial" test of the hypnotist's ability, he set up some plan and later on used it to test if hypnosis was able to hypnotise people who were avoiding it. With his new found knowledge, how will Hirama use this new power to reshape the world?


Ok this totally has a Yagami Light and Death Note feel to it. Except he's going to use a more realistic weapon like hypnotism. There's only two chapters out on OM but it definently seems to be interesting. You can check it out here (http://www.onemanga.com/LostBrain/).

ha just read it, great start and it seems like it will be much more brutal than death note. however if it starts to be too similar to DN i will probably drop it. but right now i am liking it alot.

Well, it's kind of funny because unlike DN, where light is trying get rid of the criminals and make it better(even though he can be evil doing so), this guy just thinks the rest of the world is scum. xD

I bet he's also the type to use his parents to get out of jams, too. But I hope we get to see another psycholigical battle. But I hope it's not going to be just one detective(L >.>) that is fighting him. I hope he has to go against the whole Police force and stuff.

It has potential definitely, but the amount of potential to be amazing is equal to that of failure as I see it now.

I will be reading every chapter as it comes out though. I agree, if it get's too similar to DN it's dropped.
