5. Exquisite Blood: The Heretic Onmyoji by Sakaru Fujimoto

Blood rituals, demonic battles, and one dangerous exorcist—Exquisite Blood hits all the dark fantasy notes. With rich artwork and a protagonist who's more anti-hero than savior, this is perfect for readers craving a moody, stylish, and violent supernatural drama.
