I'm new to manga and have read the above. I get hooked on the cat and mouse of "How will our protagonist overcome it this time?". Any manga recommendations like this?

Of the above, Berserk was my favorite. Beefy men are a plus.

Thanks ahead of time!

Psycho-Pass wasn't an adaptation. The manga came after and is a rare anime>manga adaptation, and not a version of the story that's worth considering over the anime, IMO.

Oh I wasn't aware it was an original series. While it's definitely not a smart assumption, i generally just assume any popular anime was a magna first.

It's a safe assumption, as most of the time a manga doesn't exist at all if the anime is original.

But there are exceptions.

As for anime being original, happens more than you'd think. And a lot are novel adaptations.
