If you liked Ikigami add

...then you might like Yokokuhan add

Both of these manga deal with slightly different, alternative present world where government is rotten, system is bad and human lifes have little worth. Ikigami's protagonist realises it while working as part of the government maintaining it and starts questioning it, while Yokokuhan's is oppressed citizen who decides to fight it via terrorism. They give of the same vibe as they have similar style of narration, composition and art. If you liked one of them and generally like serious seinen pieces with more realistic approach storywise and in character designes you will enjoy both of these.

If you liked Liar Game add

...then you might like Last Inning add

One is sports, other is game... but they have one big thing in common: interesting main character that is practically a con-man and uses his skills and knowledge in order to help a naive party succeed (to go to the Koshien or not ending up with humongous debt). If you enjoyed either one of them you're certainly going to like other - expecially if your thrill is getting insight in strategy, tactics, mind games and sometimes antiheroic, but necessary means.

If you liked Cloud add

...then you might like Yokokuhan add

Both of these manga are about hackers trying to both get revenge and show to people in their communities oppresion politics and injustices using illegal cyber means resulting in thrilling deduction based cat and mouse chases between them and the police, so, if you liked either one of them, I bet you'll like the other certainly.

If you liked Blaster Knuckle add

...then you might like Green Blood add

How often do you get to read a wild west manga? For those who enjoyed Green blood which is a lot like Hollywood movie Gangs of New York with Leonardo Di Caprio, I bet would enjoy reading Blaster Knuckle which is a lot like Django Unchained, just with monsters... both are action packed seinens filled with pursuit of revenge.

If you liked Sidooh add

...then you might like Shigurui add

Although not in the same era, both are violent samurai manga set in historic Japan containing explicit scenes, gore and plentifull amount of bizzare depictions of, for instance, martial arts training in secluded schools, deranged people etc. While Shigurui is told in a form of a flashback story for two samurai participating in a death match, Sidooh has more adventurous form of storytelling. If you enjoyed Shigurui you just might like Sidooh.

If you liked Sci-Fi Harry add

...then you might like Red Garden add

Both of these anime are distant from more common japanese etnocentrism - meaning they are set in America and have zero to none japanese characters, except for that, both are relatively mature mystery shows and in both main character/s realise that they are different than other people and show how they deal with it but also how it changes their relations with other people. If you liked either one of these shows you will most likely enjoy other.

If you liked Oyasumi Punpun add

...then you might like Boku to Issho add

Both are tales of adolescence, in both of this manga main character is somewhat unadapted to his surroundings but at the same time observant which generates a lot of somewhat cynical humor in the story. If you liked Oyasumi Punpun you will certainly like Boku to Issho, as they both are great manga for people who enjoy reading more mature content.

If you liked Wooser no Sono Higurashi add

...then you might like Miss Monochrome The Animation add

Both are short episode comedy anime and feature some life problems with the help of anusual protagonists. If you liked Wooser, he makes cameo appearance in Miss Monochrome multiple times, while if you liked Miss Monochrome maybe Wooser will interest you because he often contemplates on various problems very passively just like Monochrome.

If you liked Kaumori add

...then you might like Kobutori (1929) add

Both are one of the first anime ever created that still exist today, and if you liked one of them you will certainly like another. Kobu-tori is a folktale, while Komori has special "old cartoon" appeal while telling fable like story with animals. Both are good for "expanding the horizons", bragging that you watched an anime made before they were "mainstream" and for casual enjoyment.

If you liked Kobutori (1929) add

...then you might like Furusato Saisei: Nippon no Mukashibanashi add

If you like Nihon no Mukashi Banashi you might like Kobu-tori, a 10 minute short movie from 1929 about villager with a lump and group of tengu, which is one of the folktales in Mukashi Banashi, if you like folktales you might want to check this old version too.

If you liked Jigokuhen: Aru Jigoku Eshi no Kokuhaku add

...then you might like Kami no Kodomo add

Both are first person "confessions" of sociopathic individuals which draw you into their madness. Both have unusual art style in comparison with mainstream manga art style, so if you liked one of them you certainly might like the other. While Kami no kodomo is more drama like and generally drawn in light colors, Panorama of hell is visually very dark and ink strokes are heavy do depict more grotesque setting.

If you liked Kono Yo no Owari e no Tabi add

...then you might like Kami no Kodomo add

Both are surreal psychological tales of sociopathic protagonists with unique wiew-of-the-world phylosophies with alternative artsy art. They come from the same author so they have, naturally, unique similar feel. If you liked Kami no kodomo, you can expect almost the same level of bizzare in Kono Sekai no Owari e no Tabi, and I'm certain you'll like it.

If you liked Marie no Kanaderu Ongaku add

...then you might like Garden add

Except from being from the same author, both are surreal fantasy dramas with very similar imagery (style is very artsy and unusual in relation to most manga, an alternative to vast majority contemporary manga art). Garden is collection of short stories, while Marie is one story, if you are interested in reading more alternative manga and you liked one of them you might be interested in reading another.

If you liked Dragon Ball add

...then you might like Tatakae!! Ramenman add

Ramenman is quite a lot like DB in terms of animation style, setting (both have those chinese style mountains and watercolor nature depictions similar to those in old painting scrolls), both have a lot of martial arts training sequences, adventuring and bad guys defeating. They provide similar feel and level of enjoyment when watching. Ramenman is a bit faster paced and more episodic, so if you are looking for something like DB, consider Ramenman despite it's main character design and title might make bad first impression.

If you liked Hyouge Mono add

...then you might like Gifuu Doudou!!: Kanetsugu to Keiji add

Both are situated in approximately similar time period (warring states) and tackle real historical figures... on the level of characters there are a lot of eccentrics in both of them - passionatelly pursuing some ambition, also, occasional wars, political strategic interactions, communication by gestures, a lot of unspoken which can leave you confused at times and similar. Hyouge Mono has much more content quality to it, Gifuu has a bit more action and is a bit lighter storywise.

If you liked Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku add

...then you might like Brigadoon: Marin to Melan add

Both have quite serious story disguised behind animation style you would't expect, similar main character hardships upon discovering something/someone from another dimension and travel between them, sci-fi and fantasy elements. Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku more tragic in usual context of tragedy, while Brigadoon is more of a tragicomedy, depicting a lot of serious issues trough jokes. You will definetly like Brigadoon if you liked Ima, Soko.

If you liked Furusato Saisei: Nippon no Mukashibanashi add

...then you might like Yami Shibai add

Both are narrative and simple in terms of animation, also, while Nihon no Mukashi Banashi tells old traditional folklore tales, Yami Shibai tells scary modern folklore and urban legends.

If you liked Tentai Senshi Sunred add

...then you might like One Punch-Man add

Both are hillarious comedy-parody manga about overpowered superheroes who are so strong that they defeat their "cliche" opponents easily with one hit (there is no getting stronger drive of the story) so both of their plots mainly revolve around gags and their personalityes (Hero Saitama and Sunred are also similar - lazy, easily get annoyed and a bit antiheroic).

If you liked Sanctuary add

...then you might like Heat add

Except for similar art and setting, both of these manga feature specific kind of character growth - becoming more influential in yakuza society. If you liked Hojo side of Sanctuary story, and how he advanced trough the ranks you might like Heat which is about young ambitious yakuza starting to get more attention and influence.

If you liked Niku no Ana add
