Manga: MW
Both are mature works from Tezuka-sensei. Both are to some degree character studies of deeply flawed individuals. There are scenes of homosexuality in each, though much more in MW.

Manga: Utsubora
Mature drama about a popular author and plagiatorism. Both contain adult themes such as suicide and sex, and could be said to be about a femme fatale.

Manga: Helter Skelter
Liliko and Toshiko are the same - fake and selfish celebreties, destroying their opponents. Also similar plot, supporting characters and even finishing. 
reportRecommended by alexrus
Manga: Chikyuu wo Nomu
Both Tezuka works are set in the postwar period and feature destructive women as main characters. Both are mature and have less than perfectly happy endings. 
reportRecommended by ejala
Manga: Ayako
Both are mature works from Tezuka-sensei. Both contain intrigue, murder, sex and persons of dubious morals. Ayako is set earlier than Ningen Konchuuki, and covers a longer period of time.
