Both have violent but cool fighting scenes and even some sex together with interesting stories. Beserk follow a medieval fantasy world while Gantz is set in alternate present cyberpunk. Both main characters are also affected by unknown forces.

This is a very mature, violent, bloody, seinen, dark manga. The manga has been around since like 1990 (so it's been over 20 years!!!) and the story is simply AMAZING. I am very impressed by the creator of Berserk. I watched the anime first and then jumped straight to read the manga. The anime only covers like 10% of the whole story and the manga is not even finished yet. This is another AMAZING manga.
Hundreds and hudreds of very graphic and detailed deaths. Lots of main characters die. There are explicit sex scenes, violations and a lot of gore. Probably the two hardest mangas I have read.

If you like stories with a fantasy setting then you should read on. Both of these manga take place in a fantasy setting, but that's not all they also contain a lot of violence, blood and gore. So if you are interested in these type of manga then you should give these two a try because they are the best in their genres. If you like one of them you will probably enjoy the other one as well!
Out-of-this-world monsters, violence, blood gore and sex... It is so similar in this aspect is was surprising. However, one revolves around revenge while the other is more about saving humanity. If you just love violence and gore, then both these are just for you.

Berserk and Gantz have quite a bit common. Be it the very mature themes, to nudity, language, to over the top violence. They are both very dark in theme, and the characters are very detailed and fleshed out. Once you start reading either manga, they are hard to put down.
In Berserk, the main character, Guts, is fighting off supernatural forces, whereas in Gantz, the main character(s) are fighting extraterrestrial beings. Both mangas have the people battling against the odds, making it feel like it's a few people fighting the world. Oh and they both have gigantic swords.
- Both are Seinen
- Very detailed artstyles
- Huge amounts of violence, gore, and sexual content
- Both have nightmare fuel incarnate creatures (Aliens and Apostles) The enemies get stronger and more insane as each chapter progresses in both manga's
- No one is safe in both worlds
- Both manga's have the main protagonist and others battling the unknown and trying to win even when they are pushed to the limit
- Both manga series have had long runs
- Well written and well designed characters

This too has a death plot, where anyone can die anytime, lots of killing, supernatural beings, intense action, amazing world building and the art is similar to Berserk too. Enjoy.

Grotesque monsters, over the top violence, blood, nudity and gore. If your looking for a manga with these things then I suggest you start reading now, both will have you hooked from beginning to end. Berserk differs being a fantasy set in medieval times, with a more direct story revolving around the main characters. While Gantz differs by being a sci-fi set in modern times, with characters tasked to take down monstrosities.
