If you liked
Mikai no Hoshi
add
...then you might like
Oyasumi Punpun
add

The same sense of obscenity and desperation is present is Mikai no Hoshi and the last volumes of Oyasumi Punpun. The characters are tragic and extremely flawed, paradoxically becoming likeable. Both titles explore the comedown of their characters (and in the case of Mikai no Hoshi, of the whole society) ; however Punpun is more nihilistic than Mikai no Hoshi, abandoning any form of value and worth, while Mikai no Hoshi always retain a strong sense of life, ultimately presenting a blooming flower of humanity in its twisted, "uncivilised" world.

Last Menhealer
add

Two quite similar romances, Last Menhealer is somehow less focused on sex and does not have the "Asano-feeling" of melancholy, but it's still great (by the author of Onanie Master Kurosawa). Both share a couple having a secret, twisted relationship evolving into love for one of them.

If you liked
20th Century Boys

Eden: It's an Endless World!
add

Both manga are plot-oriented, meaning that the scenario is very well developped, with many characters, and covers a long period of time. Both tackle large-scale concerns such as the survival of humanity. That being said, Eden is way more violent than 20th Century Boys, which in return is maybe less realistic and more "rule of cool"

If you liked
Cossette no Shouzou
add
...then you might like
Tenshi no Tamago
add

Both titles share a gothic imagery with very dark and slow atmosphere (Tenshi no Tamago is still slower). Both are also excellent in terms of visual imagery and sound.

If you liked
K-On!
add
...then you might like
JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 3: Stardust Crusaders
add

I know that this rec could seem strange since it seems that K-on and Jojo are in complete opposition, but I still cannot think about one without thinking about the other and here is why : - In both you follow a group of friend in their everyday lives. Jojo SC1 has a lot of slice of life moments (that makes everybody say it's boring while I greatly enjoyed it), you see the lifes of the 5 guys of the group doing their activity : that is travelling and fighting. In K-On you see the girls in the music club having fun. In both sides, there are slice of life moments. - There are also many elements of comedy in both : JojoSC1 is way more comedy-oriented than the other Jojo parts. K-on is basically a comedy - Both titles features in majority a group of people of the same sex (girls in K-on, boys in Jojo) with exagerated expression (moe in K-on, GAR in Jojo) - Lastly, the more important in my opinion, I enjoyed both series in the same way : I wasn't just watching friends having fun or travelling, I felt like I was literally taking part of their group. I was living an adventure in Jojo, I was having fun in K-on I know this recommandation is strange, but if you liked one, there is no reason to dislike the other since they share SoL and Comedy, without romance (the Action in Jojo SC1 or the school setting in K-on can turn down at first but it is greatly enjoyable nonetheless. Also both have a lot of memes on the Internet

Vagabond

...then you might like
Shurayuki-hime
add

Not only they belongs to the same genres (i.e. Samurai, Historical, Seinen), but they also share a special attention to visuals. Consequently both are graphically extrêmely violent titles, but with beautiful imagery and great aesthetics. However, be aware that Lady Snowblood is more excplicit in sexual depictions than Vagabond.

Both are great historical manga that takes place in Japan during the XXth century. They both talks about politics and the horror of war. Hikazu Kaze is more of a thriller while Hadashi no Gen could be called a slice of life.
