I've recently finished reading DeathNote. It's about a boy who finds a notebook that can kill anyone as long as he has a face and a name of that person. It's an interesting story that follows the antagonist instead of the protagonist. Overall, the first half of the series is fun to read, the second half got pretty boring and lame.
Another one, if you like Rurouni Kenshin, the only other manga popular from Nobuhiro Watsuki is Busou Renkin. The story is very similar to Bleach. It's about a boy who tries to save a girl named Tokiko from a monster called a Homunculus. But little did the boy, Kazuki Mutou, know, that Tokiko is an experienced Alchemy Warrior. The boy dies and is given a new life with an item called a "Kakugane" to replace his heart. This Kakugane gives Kazuki new powers that can be used to fight off Homunculi (the plural of Homunculus) properly. In my opinion, a lot of events in Busou Renkin are very parallel to events in Bleach, but maybe it's just me.
