They might not take place in the same setting but both series has a familiar feeling when it comes to some concepts. The main character isn't entirely normal (non-human) and in fact possesses superhuman abilities. Throughout both series, we see their inner struggles and coping with their newfound life. They do possess some human traits, mostly in terms of their behavior though. The stories are also grim and tells of tragedy when it comes to various events that often revolves with horror, violence, and death. I recommend Tokyo Ghoul and Claymore for those into supernatural horror.
Claymore has many elements in common with Tokyo Ghoul. Both are about creatures that are similar to humans and live among them, but can only live by devouring them. Also, both protagonists of the two mangas are take part in similar transformations gaining super-human strength, altering their forms and becoming literally monsters. Claymore has a darker atmosphere and is more action-based then it’s psychological, but it’s really engaging.

And let's not forget how both Mangas have the best female cast in
