Waking up in the hospital after an accident, the boy finds that his eyes become able to see certain people's shadows. Later, it is revealed that those people are murderers, and he gets scouted and recruited by a team of 3 girls to hunt those murderers.

Some examples of murderers:

  • A woman with a giant eyeball shadow replacing her face. She takes eyeballs off her victims.

  • A man with a scythe-shaped shadow replacing his head. He was shown eating ramen next to his victims' corpses.

The manga doesn't have an anime, I believe, since it is quite recent. I am quite certain that it was released after 2013. Not a lot of chapters are out. The premise does sound quite a lot like Shinrei Tantei Yakumo or Tsukihime.

  • It does sound like [Psychic Detective Yakumo](http://myanimelist.net/manga/17541/Shinrei_Tantei_Yakumo). but not sure because only some description match according to synopsis. – mirroroftruth Mar 12 '15 at 07:09
  • @mirroroftruth But as I recall there was no team of girls assisting Yakumo? –  Mar 12 '15 at 07:19
  • @KajTorvaldGrey that was just a guess, i have not watched the anime or read manga – mirroroftruth Mar 12 '15 at 07:22

It's definitely Deathtopia.

Here is the picture of the main character on the color page of chapter 1.

Chapter 1 Color Page

This is a scene near the end of chapter 1 of the guy who eventually murder everyone in his family and eats ramen while sitting on the couch, as revealed in chapter 2 and 3. At this point in time, the main character had yet to see the true shape of the shadow, and he only managed to made out the scythe-shaped shadow in chapter 2.

The three girls who scouted him at the end of chapter 1:
