Mind games, Machiavellian methods, and mass murders. If you found either of these titles interesting, you might want to also try out the other one since both involve unorthodox detectives hunting down serial killers. However, MPD Psycho is definitely not for the faint of heart with its sexual imagery, explicitly gory death scenes, and mentally unstable characters.

They're both about serial murder cases and someone who solves them. Also both are gory and show mutilated corpses. However, MPD Psycho has a more complicated story.

Detectives and intriguing storyline. The visual and style that each series offer are similar and creates the atmosphere of mystery.  
reportRecommended by Personas
Both are mystery and action. There are many similarities in the plot.

Psychopatic serial killer that leaves the mutilated bodies on display as a way to taunt the detectives. Both manga have quite graphic content. 
reportRecommended by abystoma2
Many instances of unemotional brutality and gore are depicted in order to paint a bleak, nihilistic portrait of society with main characters changing drastically, taking on different appearances and playing a significant role as a renounced, perhaps respected influential character that dictates the future in humanity's changing standards of morals and what it means to be human. While both contain a heavy sense of realism, both also have lightly supernatural elements that are used to further develop its themes without the story seeming too fantasy which would make them seem incorrectly like comfortable works. They are unapologetic.

Both of these are about multiple bizarre murder cases, where people frequently get dismembered in gruesome fashion. While Goth is a collection of stories, MPD Psycho has more straight storyline.

Detective trying to catch a serial killer that leaves the bodies arranged in brutally derranged graphic fashion. 
reportRecommended by abystoma2
Both are dark, psychological crime mangas. MPD Psycho is more graphic and disturbing, but Dolls has its fair share of bloody corpses. I would highly recommend either series for both art and story quality.

The story is written by the same author and employ the same use of disturbing gore sceneries bordering on guro. If you are looking for a slightly deranged supernatural seinen series, look here. However, behind the gore lies a nearly spiritual portrayal of what constitute a human being. Both series showcase a quite profound worldview on these matters amidst the gory details.

If you like murder mysteries with very interesting individuals leading up the investigation, look no further. MPD Psycho features a detective who has a multiple personality disorder and features the disturbing cases happening around him. Kurosagi is about amateur college students, each posses a different kind of psychic ability and a passion for murder mysteries, the gruesome cases they deal with are VERY similar to those of MPD. Check them both out!

Though Ichi's plot is a milk for babies comparing to MPD's crazy twists, the whole atmosphere of insanity is pretty the same. Madman killers represented by every second person in MPD and Ichi alone in Ichi, but bloodshed and gore are almost at the same level. So, if you enjoy mad murderers do their work check these series.

Even though completely different in plot, mood, and lenght, both are weird Shou Tajima/Eiji Otsuka works which makes me think that the authors are obsessed with eyeballs and short-haired girls. 
reportRecommended by RenaPsychoKiller
Both have a similar creepy vibe.
