If you like the dark and unforgiving world of Jujutsu Kaisen, you might want to check out Vagabond. The martial arts manga by Takehiko Inoue focuses on a violent orphan and his transformation into a kind and strong warrior.

The manga, just like Jujutsu Kaisen, is known more for a character-driven story rather than its plot. So, the character development is well laid out. If that’s not enough, amazing fight sequences are also here to convince you.

4. Dandadan

Dandandan by Yukinobu Tatsu is a sci-fi action manga that defies the expectations of a typical shōnen series, just like Jujutsu Kaisen. Both manga, despite their absurd plot, are very much capable of keeping fans on their toes with their supernatural elements, and power-packed action.

Momo Ayase and Ken Takakura are on opposite sides of alien and paranormal existence but soon get thrown into a blizzard adventure after a supernatural encounter.
