Both World Trigger and Kaijuu nr.8 have a strong sci-fi-esque ambience, and if you're into that aesthetic, I recommend checking out either series! But that is not the only similarity!

Main character is stupid and endearing. A lot of blood and guts. Human society has adapted to a world in which monsters wreak havoc upon the world. Humans use the power of the monsters to fight back. Main character is part of the main organization that fights back against the monsters.

A world were mindless monsters constantly invade, with an organisation made to counter the threat. The stronger monsters have higher intelligence, and the stronger fighters of the organisation are forced to fight these monsters.

Gantz and Kaijuu No.8 both delve into the theme of individuals harnessing advanced plugsuits that grant physical augmentation akin to a power-up mechanism, providing enhanced strength, speed, and durability in order to combat and overpower formidable foes, be it space aliens or giant monsters.
