Another dark shounen title where it starts of somewhat happy and quickly turns dark. They strive away from the normal shounen formula and goes against the hero always wins norm. Both titles have very interesting and likable characters as well as a real good power system where they actually makes sense and are well thought out.

Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man. A pretty common recommendation on this site recently. But it’s true. The two are very similar.

Both began in Weekly Shōnen Jump in the year of 2018, and are darker and edgier battle shōnen manga. Both have a horror theme, similar art styles and both also take place in modern day Tokyo.

However, there are differences. Jujutsu Kaisen is more traditional, having more clean-ish art than Chainsaw Man, and isn’t as dark, messed up and morbid as that manga is. Jujutsu Kaisen is really reminding me of Chainsaw Man the more I read it. Fans of one should really check out the other. read more 

reportRecommended by SebCyrSC2000

So, you finished part 1 of Chainsaw Man and you're eagerly waiting for part 2? I can't think of a better series to pass that wait time than Jujutsu Kaisen. It scratches the same modern-setting, horror-action, occult-centered itch that Chainsaw Man appeals to without being so similar that you've already seen it before. 

The two series' plots premises are remarkably similar at a glance, but they diverge well when it comes to their themes and how they handle their "edginess." Like CSM, JJK makes time for humor that generally lands, but its humor is far less morbid and lends JJK a far more typical-shounen feel. However, JJK doesn't pull its punches - this series is just as dark and its conflicts are nearly as costly as CSM's devil exterminations.

A similarly rough but otherwise distinct artstyle makes JJK easy on the eyes as well, with great paneling and distinct character design to boot. If you're a fan of the messy-yet-organized feeling Fujimoto's art brings to the table, Gege Akutami cranks that up to an eleven with thick lineart and liberal use of dark ink and hatching, creative use of forced perspective, and exaggerated expressions to give its art an even more chaotic and intense feeling.

Overall, while JJK and CSM both have dark, edgy, and supernatural tones JJK stands apart from CSM as a distinctly separate approach to these similar themes, and I would call it a must-read for anyone who enjoys Chainsaw Man. read more

Firstly, the protagonists have +/- the same objectives: They are used as guinea pigs to eat "Fingers / Demon Parts" that if they survive they gain power / remain alive, if they cannot die or be killed !!!

reportRecommended by DeadlyQueen101

This is an obvious recommendation, but it's obvious for a reason!

I think of Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw man as sister mangas, kind of. Besides coming out around the same time, they are extremely similar plotwise and there are a lot of parallells between characters and the roles they play in the story. There are some crucial differences though. CSM is a LOT darker and grittier than JJK, in style and theme. CSM's main character Denji comes from a shitty upbringing and his life gets progressively worse. If you, like me, thought the jujutsu sorcerer kids were having a rough time and wanted them to catch a break, Chainsaw Man will make you tear your hair out. 

The story might seem like your standard, shallow, punch-slash-explosion-boobs-bloodsplatter shonen manga, but if you want to get into it, the story has a lot of hidden (or not-so-hidden depending on whether you possess basic reading comprehension skills or not) depth! It's got some of the most interesting, sympathetic and honest takes on psychological trauma that I've ever seen. (You can also read it just for the fight scenes and tits if that's your thing, it does that well too!)
The characters are also, just like in JJK, wonderful, and despite (or maybe because of) their abrasiveness and moral ambiguity/straight up lack of morals, they are all very charismatic!

Jujutsu kaisen is similar to Chainsaw man due to:

1- The organizations that fight against evil.

JJK: We have the sorcerers that fight against the curses (spirits) that threaten humanity. Sorcerers are controlled by the Jujutsu Technical High Schools which assign missions to the sorcerers.

CSM: There are the demon hunters who fight against the demons that threaten humanity.
The demon hunters are commanded by the organization known as the Public Security Demon Hunters who assign missions to the demon hunters.

2- Powers and abilities.

JJK: They use ritual techniques based on cursed energy (what curses are made of) to fight curses (hypocrisy).

CSM: Demon hunters make pacts with demons to fight demons (hypocrisy). read more

when i started chainsaw man i immediately had to check if jjk was by the same author-they are VERY similar and are both funny and follow different patterns than your usual shonen
-they both have similar protags (very straightforward, earnest, innocent, not your “typical” shonen protagonist full of lofty convictions)
-similar character interactions + same comedic sense
-the art styles are both sketchy and a little rugged (more so for jjk) so if one doesn’t bother you the other most likely won’t
-both are about demons and have very similar premises

As mentioned before, it is also a part of the dark trio. Has similar pacing to an action shounen and the art is amazing. The plot twists are incredible and it is definitely one of those stories you can reread and uncover more things about the story the more times you read it. I personally thought the callback to denji asking makima if a perfect world will have bad movies is absolute genius writing. If you have read it you know what I am talking about and if you didn't then read it!!! It is a piece of art, go indulge in it.

There are countless similarities between Jujutsu Kaisen Chainsaw Man, we can mention the similarity between the characters, Itadori is like Denji, the kind and funny protagonist who doesn't want to hurt even the demons, Nobara is like Power, the protagonist's friend excited and outgoing, who often steals the show, Megumi is like Aki, the quiet boy with black hair who is a friend of the protagonists who had his family killed and wants revenge, Gojo is like Makima, both are very strong with incredible powers that can finish off any enemy, Miwa is like Kobeni, the two poor comic relief from the countryside.

Another point to highlight is the relationship between Mitaka and the War Devil in Chainsaw Man part 2 which is very similar to the relationship between Itadori and Sukuna. In addition, the pace of the narrative is similar, both work with demons and curses and are shounen manga. read more

Honestly, it’s shockingly similar. While Jujutsu Kaisen is a darker series and Bleach the lighter one, it’s clear that Gege Akutami was influenced heavily by Bleach. 
The relationship to death as a concept is very much pulled from Bleach, as well.
Incredible fights in both.
One of the larger differences is simply that Tite Kubo is a much better character designer and artist. But, Jujutsu Kaisen does well enough.
Definitely suggest Bleach, though, if you haven’t already read it. Some amazing fights and just a fun time overall. It’s not as long as its chapter amount, simply due to a lot of panels just being for fights. A quick read for such a long series.
Enjoy! read more

This will contain slight spoilers for both series and a major spoiler warning later on.

The manga starts with Yuji having to awaken powers because of a life and death situation by eating Sukuna's finger. Similar to him Ichigo had to awaken his Shinigami powers because of a life and death situation where Rukia transferred her powers to him.

Afterwards we meet Gojo Satoru aka "the sensei" who is very similar character wise to Urahara Kisuke. They're both seen as very powerful entities in their worlds and are hated by many people.

Yuji was first meant to be executed but he got away with it for a short time given so that he can collect all the fingers of Sukuna which are indestructible. People didn't want to trust Yuji at first since he had Sukuna inside of him which is why he received a lot of hate from the sorcerer society and was even hunted down for it later in the manga. As a parallel to that, Ichigo was seen as an enemy by the Shinigami during the Soul Society arc and was almost killed multiple times while trying to save Rukia from getting executed.

While Yuji is able to "transform" by letting Sukuna the King of Curses take over his body, Ichigo can transform into a hollow and also communicate with Zangetsu who lives inside of his Zanpakuto and lends him power.

Spoilers for Shibuya Arc (JJK) and TYBW Arc (Bleach):

In the Shibuya Arc we find out that Kenjaku had transplanted his brain into Kaori Itadori's (Yuji's Mom) body which is why Choso ends up calling Yuji "brother". Yuji was revealed to be related to Kenjaku which also explains his supernatural physical abilities in the first few chapters. This is a big parallel to the plot twist with Ichigo's mother not being a human but a quincy and him being related to Yhwach because of that. read more

Dragon Ball addpermalink

The main argument as to why I think these two manga are similar, is the energy that both Toriyama and Akutami bring to the page. Jujutsu Kaisen and Dragon Ball have the most vibrant panelling that I've seen in the entire medium, action scenes are incredibly intricately choreographed, but drawn in a way that is easy to follow, characters can pop out of their respective panels, and the two styles of actually constructing a page of manga (which are extremely important, but often unnoticed when reading) are energetic but digestible in the best ways possible. 
Another similarity is the fact that the action never stops in either of the two series. Akutami & Toriyama don't waste time by letting things build up more than they should and more often than not jump straight into the central conflict, which is very gratifying as a weekly reader (regarding Jujutsu Kaisen only). read more

Ao no Exorcist addpermalink

- Both series deals with the protagonist as something supernatural, but part human.
- Supernatural creatures.
- Demon/supernatural schools.
- Both main characters don’t have much, to any family left.
- Character relationships are kinda similar.
- Villains who wants power over the worlds.
- Interesting battles!
- Both are very underrated [Hopefully will both get more recognition when Jujutsu gets its anime and if Ao no Exorcist gets a third season].
