You know, those manga where the hero/heroine is wallowing in their own angst.... that they have to avenge something and lead a life of blood, violence, anger, sorrow etc. If anyone can tell me some titles like that, please do!

I can't really say i've read anything other than Claymore and Ubel Blatt with that sort of specification.

I guess Code Geass qualifies though, but it's more of an anime than a manga, not to say there isn't a manga though for it.

I dunno if Death Note can count really, it's more of a clever guy gone bad sorta thing.

Berserk I guess, although you may have read that already

Lol, i was gonna say berserk as well. cause if you read Ubel's comments, all youd see is bashes against it because "it's a rip off of berserk"

But what you're looking for is more like Action series that have pitiful Main characters.

In which case, all i can think of is Berserk. And Violinist of hameln... Oh, and Kurozuka

But here, i think this will work for you.

Action and tragedy search in the series info. More than likely, youll find lots of goodies.

I think Souten no Ken fits, tho maybe too much brotherly love in it.

________________
Can't read >_<

May or may not want to check out Monster as well. He doesn't go around killing people, but the wallowing in angst and sorrow/trying to fix something he put in motion fits.

Definitely don't miss Kurozuka!!! It's exactly waht you're asking for.

Other choices could be:
Shin Angyo Onshi -> great manga
Vampire Juujikai -> another great manga
Vagabond -> I haven't still read it, I'm only supposing from what other people say about it.

What I like in Trivial Pursuit style. Pick your category:

Crimson Cross lots of angst. Lots of sorrow. Lots of suffering. Even though it is a oneshot, it is some pretty depressing stuff.
Dogs Intro to bullets and carnage
Dogs: Bullets & Carnage lots of angst, lots of revenge. Don't miss this one.
Dolls not so much angst, but there is a lot of gore and an interesting plot
Sidooh blood and revenge

I'm looking for a more youthful character but Berserk and Blade of the Immortal seems... nice.

And onizukaa's right: I was looking for more action and blood.... the pitiful hero/heroine justs complements action stories quite nicely.

Too bad can't find vol 1 of Berserk anymore...

v1 of berserk is quite easy to find, if you know where to look... (IRC!!!)

He's only in the middle 20s I believe right now in the manga. He isn't that old... Manga also focuses on the time when he was in his late teens and early 20s too.
