If you liked Jujutsu Kaisen add

...then you might like Chainsaw Man add

This is an obvious recommendation, but it's obvious for a reason! I think of Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw man as sister mangas, kind of. Besides coming out around the same time, they are extremely similar plotwise and there are a lot of parallells between characters and the roles they play in the story. There are some crucial differences though. CSM is a LOT darker and grittier than JJK, in style and theme. CSM's main character Denji comes from a shitty upbringing and his life gets progressively worse. If you, like me, thought the jujutsu sorcerer kids were having a rough time and wanted them to catch a break, Chainsaw Man will make you tear your hair out. The story might seem like your standard, shallow, punch-slash-explosion-boobs-bloodsplatter shonen manga, but if you want to get into it, the story has a lot of hidden (or not-so-hidden depending on whether you possess basic reading comprehension skills or not) depth! It's got some of the most interesting, sympathetic and honest takes on psychological trauma that I've ever seen. (You can also read it just for the fight scenes and tits if that's your thing, it does that well too!) The characters are also, just like in JJK, wonderful, and despite (or maybe because of) their abrasiveness and moral ambiguity/straight up lack of morals, they are all very charismatic! ty 4 yr time (｀-´)>
