Not historically accurate, very minimal to no fantasy.

Time period ranges from around 400BC to the early 20th Century.

Berserk for instance, would not qualify due to its prominent fantasy setting.

All entries are set in Historical Europe or a very similar setting. Vagrant Soldier Ares qualifies as it takes place in a setting very similar to ancient Rome.

Manga depicting the daily life/religion/historical events/just culture overall of different parts of the world.

Doesn't include Japanese culture since most of the manga have a Japanese setting anyway.

Doesn't include manga with settings older than the 10th century. So no Ancient Greece or Roman Empire, for example.

Do not interpret this list as "reccomendations for series as good as good as Berserk," because you won't get that! But if you like knights, swords and castles and occasionally magic and appreciate those things on an aesthethic level, then you'll find things to enjoy.
