Psyren

I like to think of Psyren as the shonen-version of Gantz.
both series involve a "game" with real lives at stake, set up by some mysterious person, while the main characters try to beat the game to win back their freedom or for other goals later realizing there´s more at stake
Good drawing, good story line. Similar to Gantz, they get teleported to a different world and have to fight unknown monsters
Psyren resembles GANTZ only at the beginning of the series. People are sent somewhere unknown and have to fight for their lifes in order to end "the game". The art gap is huuuuuuge. But both series are amazing.
Though the settings and tone differ, the core of both stories and recurring events are really similar. Gantz, though, is much more mature (Gore, sexual themes, bloodier, and a lot grosser).

Psyren is Gantz for kiddies... Main Character is used by some mysterious entity (Gantz-Gantz, and Psyren-Nemisis Q) and are warped to another... well place. They have to complete some sort of objective before thy can go home.The endings are different, but they both start out very similarly..
Both Gantz and Psyren involve a game were the prize is your life. Gantz is more brutal and more for an older audience

Both have a plot where the main character(s) are transported to an alternate reality type setting. Both involve the idea of a 'game' that the main character(s) are forced to participate in against their will, and they will be snatched randomly and transported into the 'game'. Gantz tends to have more mature content and more gory death scenes than Psyren, but both story lines are very interesting, although Gantz has a darker and more dangerous feel. =.=
There are "games" in both series with real lives at stake, set up by some mysterious person. The main characters at first try only to survive the game, but later realize that the outcomes of "games" might just decide the fate of humanity.

A death game, the characters of both manga are thrown into a game where they have to fight in order to survive, because if they die in this game they die in the real world too. How and why they end up in that game is a mystery. Follow these characters as they try to survive and figure out how the mystery. If you like action manga with gore then this is perfect for you!
Gantz without all the blood and gore and add in a couple supernatural powers and what do you get? Psyren. Both manga have survival games where the main character is fighting against something beyond his comprehension.

Both involve a death game in which it is unknown of its true purpose, it involving killing monsters , gaining points and goals.
Differences - Psyren enters the game through a card calling machine where in Gantz you enter the game by dying, both are great in terms of building tension.
Gantz is extremly gory, dark and wierd and you are likely to not feel sorry for anyone due to the huge amount of deaths.
Psyren is more esp related with superpowers and is funny, where Gants is more serious with action packed stuff like guns and swords.
Both manga are about supernatural death games with a lot of fights, mysteries and surprises.
