Shinigami-kun

TV SERIES 2014 1 SEASON

Overview

Shinigami-kun, alias grim reaper #413, is a rookie who pronounces the death of those scheduled to die and brings souls to the nether world. He would appear with the signature phrase ā€œCongratulations! I’m here to call on youā€ although it is hard to say how this can be a happy occasion, and watch over the dying. To a grim reaper, persuading people attempting to commit suicide and preventing unforeseen deaths is also an important task. But because #413 is new to this grim reaper work, he has a tendency to lean towards humans in his judgments, break the rules of the nether world and get reprimanded by his superior.

This production, originally released in 2014, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi & Fantasy genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 6.7 across its 1 season.
