Dark, thought-provoking manga recommendations?

Hello Sanctuary team

I’m looking for manga with a dark, mature, and psychologically rich tone. Serials like Berserk, Devilman Crybaby, and Tokyo Ghoul really spoke to me. I love when a show blends stylized violence, existential drama, and a deep, immersive world.

I’ve also been reflecting on how Generative AI Training is evolving lately and wondering to myself—have you come across any manga that explore AI subjects in significant or philosophical ways? Or maybe works that could even affect AI training models because of their textual or visual richness?

I’d really appreciate your recommendations—whether it’s a powerful seinen, a darker shōnen, or a well-written one-shot. If it’s available in English or French, even better!

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

I recommend Homunculus by Hideo Yamamoto, a haunting dive into the human psyche, this manga explores trauma, perception, and mental illness through a man who undergoes trepanation and begins to see people’s inner psychological wounds as grotesque manifestations. Visceral, disturbing, and deeply philosophical.

Ils se sont crées un sujet et ils se répondent donc , tout … va … bien.

Ouais, j’ai suspendu les deux, mais j’ai trouvé ça drôle aussi…
