I know their both pretty cliche topics but I'm a sucker for this type of stuff.

Also I've seen the majority of anime/manga in which these topics are prevalent.

Please shoot me some recommendations in which you seem fitting of what the title says, as always thank you and have a good night/day!

I would recommend Hataraku Maou-sama!, but it's on your list already.

I really don't know, but you could try Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica. Is not exactly what you're looking for, but just try.

It didn't get a lot of attention, but for me it's quite good.
When people asked 'why are you so quiet?',
just answer 'why are you not?'

Black Lagoon - some pretty dark past hinted, also I'm not sure in which season exactly if you go with the anime version.
Fate/Zero - dark pasts for almost everyone.
Shingeki no Kyojin - dark pasts for both main characters (even darker for the female MC), male MC is seen as a monster. Oh, I see you are reading the manga already.
Claymore manga for a dark past (no idea about the anime), also monstrosities emerge regularly there.
Dorohedoro manga for dark pasts and monster reputations. Not to mention it's super-awesome.

- Pandora Hearts (MC branded as a monster)

- Kuroshitsuji (Dark past, every single member of his family got slaughtered and only MC survived, then forming contract with a demon)

- Vagabond (on your PTR list so i guess you knew it already)

- Afro Samurai (Kinda similar to Vagabond)

- Black Cat (MC used to be a cold-blooded Assassin)

- Rurouni Kenshin (Same as above)


and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'|
