I have read Punpun and A Girl on the Shore so far. I am not super interested in reading Solanin, at least based on what Ive heard about it.
Are there any Inio Asano works that come close/are similar to what he did in Punpun?

I heard downfall is supposed to be similar vibes, but Im not sure.

His other works are a lot worse, although I like the Holograph one somewhat. Nothing can really replicate what Punpun did, although you'll find a similar appeal in things like NHK/Three days of happiness.

Ive read NHK and did like it, but not nearly as much as Punpun. Ive never heard about Three days of happiness. What is it about? I might check that out

Ive read the novel of No Longer Human and a bunch of other of Dazais works. Theyre really good but since Ive already read the book i dont really see the point in reading the Manga
