not for all ages but must see for shounen/seinen fans unique psycho detective anime/manga. if you can bare in the blood/crimes and monsters. there s a lot of problem like transformation? i don t understand why the culprits need to transform into a monster its so weird. theres is many good episodes such as the last 2 arcs in the 14-25 . but overall i love this anime and its recommended for those monster.detective,devil mystery.

In the end, it's a pretty decent show, but it is pointlessly confusing and badly written often. It tends to do better when it is in a continuous arc, but even those can be poorly written too. Neuro is a great character, but the rest are all generic. Worth a watch if you have a lot of free time.

Not very funny because of detective plots simplified.Much of them are solved without logic,it's not Sherloc Holmes.Main hero has no real enemies.The only interesting mystery was solved in last episode with rare lack of talent

Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro is only good for killing time. Only charater worth noticing is neuro, all others are plain as hell. I didnt understand the meaning of face changing at all, so it seemed way more stupided than it could.

Great characters, awesome characters relationships, clever humor. Fresh, non-standart series. Detective riddles knowingly simplified, but it doesn't worsen things, they're just a background for characters. Watch ep.6 to see how cute the main heroine is ^^

16, female, , adolescentAn adolescent (teenager) is 13 to 19 years old., ahogeConsisting of a single, often large, lock of hair sticking out from the top of the head, it is most often used to identify foolish, bumbling or carefree characters., brown eyesThe character has brown eyes., hair clipA small metal or plastic clip used to keep the hair in a certain style, or sometimes just for style., overeaterA character (who quite often is anything but fat) eats enough for an entire football team, usually devastating the whole table — and perhaps entire restaurants — with their insatiable hunger. Often combined with a speed-eating technique that makes food seem to vanish spontaneously from the plate., ribbon tieA ribbon tie is a ribbon used to tie the collar of a shirt, blouse, or other clothing top. This means that the ribbon, with or without a bow loop, is tying a collar that is cut close to the neck (i.e. not a low-cut collar); otherwise, the ribbon is just a common case of ribbons on clothes. Please see the full description for more detailed instructions on when to apply or not apply this tag., school uniformA type of uniform worn in Japanese schools (called "seifuku" in Japanese), generally high school age or younger. They can vary considerably; commonly, females will wear a sailor uniform (modelled off the British Royal Navy uniforms in 1920) and males will often wear a "gakuran", which is a dark button-up uniform modelled off Prussian army uniforms. But expect to see a substantial amount of variety., short hairShort hair is hair from (but not including) bald, up to (but not including) shoulder-length hair. This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length.

male, , arrogantHaving or revealing an exaggerated sense of one`s own importance or abilities., cynicalThe character often goes for the most realistic/pessimistic take on events., demonIn Western lore, demons are often described as minions from Hell, generally known to attack humans and feast on their flesh or possess the bodies of those with weak souls. In Eastern lore, on the other hand, they are generally supernatural, often but not always malevolent beings who can be more mischievous than actually evil, or simply supernatural spirits of no specific alignment., hair beadsno description set, multicoloured hairMulticoloured hair is hair with more than one colour in its main portions. Do not use this tag if only hair streaks or the hair tips are differently coloured; apply the appropriate hair streak colour tag in those cases., prehensile hairSometimes people have a hairdo so big it seems like it has a mind of its own, and moves on its own accord. And then there are the people who have the ability to make it move. Characters with "superpowers" that allow their mullets to become murderous., regenerationRegeneration is a supernatural ability to repair great extents of damage incurred as a result of, for example, combat or accidents, and generally to do so fairly quickly. This may include, for example, the replacement of destroyed limbs and organs in a matter of minutes or less. It is not to be confused with the slow, limited, natural damage repair ability that most living organisms have, which does not provide for replacement of limbs and organs, quick or otherwise., shark teethThe character has a mouth full of jagged triangular teeth.
