If you liked Hideout add

...then you might like Sayuri add

Both are 'pure' horror stories lacking comedy and weirdness, instead opting into atmosphere and appealing more to primal fear. They also make strong use of shadows to reveal only part of what's scary, leaving a lot to the imagination.

If you liked Ibitsu add

...then you might like Sayuri add

Both are 'pure' horror stories. To compare to Junji Ito's stuff, they lack comedy and weirdness, and instead build creeping horror and atmosphere to attempt to deliver a real scare.

If you liked Aho Girl add

...then you might like Mousou Telepathy add

Main/supporting characters with one-track minds. In Mousou Telepathy, the offender takes the form of a guy with an incorrigibly lewd mind, whereas in Aho Girl the offender is a new species of monkey girl who wants various kinds of bananas. It's also pretty easy to tell what all the characters are thinking in either series. In any case, they share similar brands of humour.

If you liked Hinamatsuri add

...then you might like Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen add

The comedy is driven primarily by misunderstandings. Kaguya-sama has two characters trying to outfox each other in matters of the heart, together with a cast which serves to complement this. On the other hand, Hinamatsuri features a more subtle and mature brand of comedy which somehow works even with ESP, yakuza, salarymen, salmon roe and kungfu thrown in. The latter will appeal more to older readers.

If you liked Jisatsutou add

...then you might like Golden Kamuy add

The authors regularly discuss survival techniques in comparable depth, though in Golden Kamuy these particular segments are more tangentially related to preparation of food or exploration of culture. Jisatsutou is a lot better when it comes to exploring its main plot (which doesn't actually relate to food.)

If you liked Ajin add

...then you might like Fire Punch add

Undying characters trying to kill each other in creative ways, similar art style (though Ajin is more detailed), and well fleshed-out characters from the very beginning. Fire Punch is more humorous in its random obscenity, but Ajin actually makes sense.

If you liked Baki Gaiden: Scarface add

...then you might like Oyaji add

Larger-than-life, powerfully-built MCs who also happen to have hearts of gold and communicate with their fists. They're certainly a little hard to look at, but the main characters are pretty similar in their 'silent giant' appeal.

If you liked Bokurano add

...then you might like Sekai Oni add

Almost identical premises and plot twists; Sekai Oni is clearly influenced by Bokurano. Similar teenage angst, victory conditions, and deathmatches against enemies from other worlds for the sake of survival. Bokurano has philosophy, a stronger mystery element, slower pacing and a depressive atmosphere whereas Sekai Oni has relentless plot developments and wild emotions. Of course, in general Sekai Oni doesn't compare in terms of readability, but it might appeal more to a subset of younger readers because of its action.

If you liked Mx0 add

...then you might like Angel Densetsu add

They're centred around male main characters that are believed to be extremely powerful fighters by everybody around them, but in reality this perspective is due to numerous misunderstandings. They're also set in school settings, though Mx0 has a lot of magic in it. Comedy is one of the main elements that they share, though Angel Densetsu is definitely a bit dated.
