Both are intriguing realistic character-based action manga, and revolve around the idea of revenge and setting things right. I highly recommend Oyaji, the much lesser known of the two.

In both mangas the protagonist is a grown man who is trying to solve a crime... to find a certain man who, in a way, ruined his life. And in both cases the answer is buried deep in they're memory's.
The art is similar too(or so I remember)
