Mystery genre is similar to romance genre as like it, it has to have other types like suspense,thriller,pyschological to make it much better.
The List starts with the number 10 spot upto number 1
Here are some of my top Mystery Anime recommendation:
Death Parade
After death, there is no heaven or hell, only a bar that stands between reincarnation
and oblivion. There the attendant will, one after another, challenge pairs of the recently deceased to
a random game in which their fate of either ascending into reincarnation or falling into the void will
be wagered. Whether it's bowling, darts, air hockey, or anything in between, each person's true nature
will be revealed in a ghastly parade of death and memories, dancing to the whims of the bar's master.
Welcome to Quindecim, where Decim, arbiter of the afterlife, awaits!
Death Parade expands upon the original one-shot intended to train young animators. It follows yet more
people receiving judgment—until a strange, black-haired guest causes Decim to begin questioning his own
rulings.
Pyscho-Pass
Justice, and the enforcement of it, has changed. In the 22nd century,
Japan enforces the Sibyl System, an objective means of determining the threat level of
each citizen by examining their mental state for signs of criminal intent, known as their
Psycho-Pass. Inspectors uphold the law by subjugating, often with lethal force, anyone
harboring the slightest ill-will; alongside them are Enforcers, jaded Inspectors that have
become latent criminals, granted relative freedom in exchange for carrying out the
Inspectors' dirty work.
Into this world steps Akane Tsunemori, a young woman with an honest desire to uphold
justice. However, as she works alongside veteran Enforcer Shinya Kougami, she soon learns
that the Sibyl System's judgments are not as perfect as her fellow Inspectors assume.
With everything she has known turned on its head, Akane wrestles with the question of
what justice truly is, and whether it can be upheld through the use of a system that may
already be corrupt.
Erased
When tragedy is about to strike, Satoru Fujinuma finds himself sent back several minutes before the
accident occurs. The detached, 29-year-old manga artist has taken advantage of this powerful yet mysterious
phenomenon, which he calls "Revival," to save many lives.
However, when he is wrongfully accused of murdering someone close to him, Satoru is sent back to the past
once again, but this time to 1988, 18 years in the past. Soon, he realizes that the murder may be connected
to the abduction and killing of one of his classmates, the solitary and mysterious Kayo Hinazuki, that took
place when he was a child. This is his chance to make things right.
Boku dake ga Inai Machi follows Satoru in his mission to uncover what truly transpired 18 years ago and prevent
the death of his classmate while protecting those he cares about in the present.
Gosick
Kazuya Kujou is a foreign student at Saint Marguerite Academy, a luxurious boarding school
in the Southern European country of Sauville. Originally from Japan, his jet-black hair and dark brown eyes
cause his peers to shun him and give him the nickname "Black Reaper," based on a popular urban legend about
the traveler who brings death in the spring.
On a day like any other, Kujou visits the school's extravagant library in search of ghost stories. However,
his focus soon changes as he becomes curious about a golden strand of hair on the stairs. The steps lead him
to a large garden and a beautiful doll-like girl known as Victorique de Blois, whose complex and imaginative
foresight allows her to predict their futures, now intertwined.
With more mysteries quickly developing—including the appearance of a ghost ship and an alchemist with the power
of transmutation—Victorique and Kujou, bound by fate and their unique skills, have no choice but to rely on
each other.
Tokyo Ghoul
Tokyo has become a cruel and merciless city—a place where vicious creatures
called “ghouls” exist alongside humans. The citizens of this once great metropolis live in
constant fear of these bloodthirsty savages and their thirst for human flesh. However, the greatest
threat these ghouls pose is their dangerous ability to masquerade as humans and blend in with society.
Based on the best-selling supernatural horror manga by Sui Ishida, Tokyo Ghoul follows Ken Kaneki, a shy,
bookish college student, who is instantly drawn to Rize Kamishiro, an avid reader like himself. However,
Rize is not exactly who she seems, and this unfortunate meeting pushes Kaneki into the dark depths of
the ghouls' inhuman world. In a twist of fate, Kaneki is saved by the enigmatic waitress Touka Kirishima,
and thus begins his new, secret life as a half-ghoul/half-human who must find a way to integrate into both
societies.
Hyouka
Energy-conservative high school student Houtarou Oreki ends up with more than he bargained
for when he signs up for the Classics Club at his sister's behest—especially when he realizes how deep-rooted
the club's history really is. Begrudgingly, Oreki is dragged into an investigation concerning the 45-year-old
mystery that surrounds the club room.
Accompanied by his fellow club members, the knowledgeable Satoshi Fukube, the stern but benign Mayaka Ibara,
and the ever-curious Eru Chitanda, Oreki must combat deadlines and lack of information with resourcefulness
and hidden talent, in order to not only find the truth buried beneath the dust of works created years before
them, but of other small side cases as well.
Based on the award-winning Koten-bu light novel series, and directed by Yasuhiro Takemoto of Suzumiya Haruhi
no Shoushitsu, Hyouka shows that normal life can be full of small mysteries, be it family history, a student
film, or even the withered flowers that make up a ghost story.

price.
Mirai Nikki
Lonely high school student, Yukiteru Amano, spends his days writing a diary on his cellphone,
while conversing with his two seemingly imaginary friends Deus Ex Machina, who is the god of time and space,
and Murmur, the god's servant. Revealing himself to be an actual entity, Deus grants Yukiteru a "Random Diary,"
which shows highly descriptive entries based on the future and forces him into a bloody battle royale with
11 other holders of similarly powerful future diaries.
With the last person standing designated as the new god of time and space, Yukiteru must find and kill the other
11 in order to survive. He reluctantly teams up with his obsessive stalker Yuno Gasai (who also possesses such
a diary), and she takes it upon herself to ensure his safety. But there's more to the girl than meets the eye, as
she might have other plans for her unrequited love...
Steins Gate
The self-proclaimed mad scientist Rintarou Okabe rents out a room in a rickety old building in Akihabara, where he indulges himself in
his hobby of inventing prospective "future gadgets" with fellow lab members: Mayuri Shiina, his air-headed
childhood friend, and Hashida Itaru, a perverted hacker nicknamed "Daru." The three pass the time by tinkering
with their most promising contraption yet, a machine dubbed the "Phone Microwave," which
performs the strange function of morphing bananas into piles of green gel.
Though miraculous in itself, the phenomenon doesn't provide anything concrete in Okabe's search
for a scientific breakthrough; that is, until the lab members are spurred into action by a string
of mysterious happenings before stumbling upon an unexpected success—the Phone Microwave can send
emails to the past, altering the flow of history.
Adapted from the critically acclaimed visual novel by 5pb. and Nitroplus, Steins;Gate takes Okabe
through the depths of scientific theory and practicality. Forced across the diverging threads of
past and present, Okabe must shoulder the burdens that come with holding the key to the realm of
time.
