There is a similar tone to these two manga, and they both include depictions of graphic violence. The plot and themes of the stories are also similar, as they explore morality and the dangers of labeling another group of people as "other." Characters are drawn from two groups, a minority that lives at the expense of the majority, with sometimes fatal consequences, and a special branch of police that hunts them. There is also an underground/terrorist organization that fights on the side of the minority against a shady government group on the side of the majority. Both have their own mysterious agendas. Lastly, there are similarities in the combat systems of both worlds, with a few super-powered combatants that can dominate the battlefield. For most characters, however, it takes grueling training to make any sort of measurable difference in the fight. Shinazu no Ryouken goes furthest with this concept, exploring the pyschological toll such training takes, while Tokyo Ghoul explores trauma itself in a more exaggerated and supernatural way. Odds are, if you like one series, you'll like the other.

In both series, the MC becomes something more than human. While both characters struggle to retain or retain their humanity, the themes in TG are more character driven and intimate than inn Midori no Ou, where the characters feel a bit insubstantial compared to the world changing events they're involved in.
