Apocalypse manga recommendations (during the apocalypse, not post)

Looking for some recommendations for end of the world manga.
There's lots set post apocalyptic, but I'd like to read some where the end of the world event is occurring - see peoples reactions / panic etc. Be it plague / meteor / war etc.
I've read Gantz and have been recommended Devilman. Are there any others that people could recommend (even if it's just a one shot)?
Thanks in advance

X is the one that springs to mind immediately.
Also, I think Alive: The Final Evolution had one too? It's been a long time since I read it though.
And, for a "classic" zombie apocalypse, Dead Days.
EDIT: Also, while it's nominally post-apocalyptic, 7 Seeds has some moments that flashback to the moments when the apocalypse was imminent. It's survival elements are also very in-line with other apocalyptic series.

Thank you - I'll give X and Dead Days a read. I had 7seeds on my list, but it's just moved up too.

Hellstar Remina
Jacarandá - localized disaster rather than worldwide apocalypse, but has a focus on reactions before, during & just after.

Thank you for the recommendations - grabbing sprite and Jacaranda now. Not looked at Hellstar yet but I will do soon.

Milk Closet Is about inter-dimensional beings destroying Earth. Outlanders is about an alien invasion.
