I initially struggled to outline what "sexually explicit manga" exactly means, but I ultimately went with "any manga where a sizeable portion of its content consists of considerably perverted or sexual acts, subjects, imagery, etc."

The content does not have to be titillating, meaning something like Berserk counts too, which obviously is not meant to arouse you (unless you have questionable fetishes).

Of course, this list will NOT include straight up hentai. Erotica or borderline hentai is okay, though I will mostly try to avoid them.

A list of manga with the most realistic artwork I can think of. Some titles have their own style added into the manga, this is totally fine - so cartoonish features and anatomically incorrect proportions are fine - so long as backgrounds or character art is high quality and reminiscent of realistic imagery/CGI then its eligible for this list.

Also sometimes labelled as a splatter, the main focus of the manga is well the blood, guts and dismembered body parts. Shock is a key element of this genre. Movies such as the SAW series are famous for the difficult-to-watch torture sequences, but what a bout the manga? This list is compiled of some of the most gory manga I have seen that aren't pornographic.

There are some manga that immediately hook you at the beginning, and make you ecstatic and hopeful that they will at least keep it up. But over time you notice how the things that made you interested at first give way to stale tropes, lazy character development, nonsensical plot decisions, well-telegraphed "mystery" reveals and other forms of writing impotence.

Notable plotlines remain unresolved, characters that should've stayed dead are being resurrected, difficult dilemmas are being resolved through talk-no-jutsu and plot armor, antagonists that do bad things aren't held properly accountable, lack of protagonist's ability is circumvented by sudden power-ups, lack of agency circumvented by deus ex machinae... surely you know a series or two that have fallen victim to one or more of these, perhaps as a result of either poor planning or editorial department's insistence on stalling overall plot progression so that more volumes could be sold—until it wears itself too thin to continue at all. As a result, those of you who keep following the story witness its slow, agonizing descent into the abyss by author's own hand, pleading to end its misery.

This list mainly includes manga that at least at some point—usually their first few volumes—were good enough to warrant a recommendation before everyone realized where it was going. Aside from that, I also decided on a whim to include Solo Leveling and Grashros (both of which were never worth recommending as far as I'm concerned) simply because their continuous decline in writing is remarkable on its own. It's a bit of a so-bad-it's-good situation, so you can still enjoy them ironically.

This list constitutes my personal views and stances. If something isn't on it, it likely means I haven't read it or I think it was never that good to begin with. Feel free to shoot me suggestions via DMs, but make sure you have a convincing argument if it's not something that's already on my main manga/anime list. I don't promise it'll end up here, but I will consider all suggestions.

Worldbuilding - "the process of constructing a world, originally an imaginary one, sometimes associated with a fictional universe." These kinds of manga are usually set in a fantasy and/or sci-fi world, and excel at establishing & showcasing the rules/history/economy of their fictional universe. List was created through collective data from multiple websites of people's answers as to what manga are considered to have great world building.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 147 would be the Himitsu Series of books. It's for children and I can't find it on MAL. It has 116 volumes and started in 1972, and has sold 23 million (June 10th, 2018).

The Masked Man is an American YouTuber who makes videos primarily about manga, but also anime, and very occasionally video games. He does in-depth analysis on the subjects he talks about. Here is his top 50 manga.

NOTE:-
"Fata Morgana no Yakata: Anata no Hitomi wo Tozasu Monogatari" is not manga, its a Visual Novel.(https://vndb.org/v12402)
Consider this list from Beserk to OPM to be the actual manga list.

Okay so my favorite niche sub-genre of manga is the ones where the cast has to kill each other or participate in some sort of sick and sadistic game. I have read most of these, but it is my favorite so I figured I should share with the world, enjoy!
