If you liked Made in Heaven add

...then you might like Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan add

First off: both are very, very sad stories. They contain a man who has (in a way) given up on living since, because of circumstances, it does not allow him to live it fully. All of a sudden, a young woman named "Juri" (yes, in both of the stories) comes into their lives unexpectedly, and the young man can find no other thought than: "I want to live". The young women with troubled pasts then learn from the men, and then begin at a second chance at life...

If you liked Bronze: Zetsuai Since 1989 add

...then you might like Zankoku na Kami ga Shihai suru add

Hagio Moto's A Cruel God Reigns (aka. Zankoku Na Kami Ga Shihai Suru) was most likely influenced by what was called yaoi's "most major work" --Bronze: Zetsuai. Both of them are from late 80s/early 90s, and they contain semi-insane characters, a controversial plot, explicit sexual abuse, and are angsty, violent, bloody, and horrifying. The dark and grim stories are -extremely- difficult to read and enjoy. There are some clear differences however: Zetsuai has some "nice"r moments, along with lots of melodrama, whereas A Cruel God Reigns has none, and is a lot more refined as a whole.

If you liked Aruku Hito add

...then you might like Koko de wa Nai★Doko ka add

The Walking Man and Yama E Iku (in the Anywhere But Here anthology) are extremely similar to one another. Nothing ground breaking happens, but a man just walks around, and takes in the beauty of nature around him. It's about simple things.

...then you might like Hoozuki no Reitetsu add

Both have an extremely unique way of story-telling. Not only that, but they are super modern, and have their own sense of humor.

If you liked Hydra add

...then you might like Let Dai add

Boys love, miscommunications, delinquent acts, and over the top slice-of-life drama. Not only that, but the main guy refuses to acknowledge and love himself. They're also about how insecurities, distance, and problems grow over time (just like the Hydra, a monster that would double itself when killed). Both have an almost equal cast of female/male characters, and one event concerning a certain girl in both series kinda starts the downfall of everything.

If you liked DOLL: IC in a Doll add

...then you might like Plants Doll add

Both kind of play with the idea of buying "living dolls". The stories also give off similar vibes.

If you liked Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE add

...then you might like Hatenkou Yuugi add

A little spoilerish to say why, but Hatenkou Yuugi goes about all of it's mind blowing psychedelics in a slice-of-life kind of way, while Tsubasa gets pretty intense... Lots of things in one manga occurs in the other one (you just have to get a good chunk into each of them to get to the good stuff!)

If you liked Gals! add

...then you might like Kechonpa add

They both feature a really eccentric gyaru who, not only does she solve the occasional mystery, but they also have close ties to the police force. Kechonpa is more mature, and heavy-handled (especially with it's dialogue), while GALS! is a light shoujo.

If you liked Kagen no Tsuki add

...then you might like Two Will Come add
