Okay, I've read Berserk, had cries and laughters, but vomited from the Gantz. What another manga should I read? (sh.itjust.works)

I have a deep connection to Junji Ito's works and realy enjoy beautifully drawn graphical violence. But not that cheap and stupid like it's done in Gantz. I strive for something more meaningful, moreso if it's a long manga that is availiable on the bay. Do you have some suggestions akin to Bers or Ito's Spiral?

Maybe try Dorohedoro

What the hell is even that premise of the story lol

After the initial few chapters, things get really interesting

Will try, thank for recommendation (also like OP i love Berserk but Gantz was simply boring for me).

Nothing can top Berserk. But Vagabond is a pretty close match except that it's on hiatus for a while.

Yeah when i want some long run i go for xianxia manhuas, for mangas i got used for them to top in few dozens chapters then die off, with few exceptions (like Hajime no Ippo which somehow is still going on except plot being dead fish for a long time now)

Hajime no Ippo is still going on?

Finished reading Dorohedoro. Turned out, it was manga about beheadings. I don't think even one about Charles-Henri Sanson would have so many beheadings in it. Generally was great at first but after En's death it become pretty boring.
