Seinen Manga Recommendation Thread

I ran a search through the discussion board looking for a seinen manga discussion thread. While there were discussions about different seinen mangas, I never crossed a general recommendation thread, so if there is one my apologizes and please redirect me to that discussion. Well I guess I will start out.

What I'm looking for is a seinen manga with any varying amount of drama / romance. While I have found some success, I would appreciate your input.

What I have read / watched so far: (while some of these titles aren't technically classified as seinen manga I still included them because it is what I liked)

Berserk
Suzuka
Bitter Virgin
Cowboy Bebop
Rurouni Kenshin (series and movies)
Hellsing
Elfen Lied
Tenjou Tenge
Tsukihime
Basilisk

Looking into: (need more here!)
Gantz

Also, if anyone needs any recommendation I would happy to help out as well. Thanks in advance!

Monster - finished

...how to describe without ruining the whole thing... I can't read ONE volume and if you don't like it dont read it :P

20th century boys - finished

Whole bunch of kids wrote up crazy plans to take over and save the world fast forward 20 years and someone is fulfilling the plans...

Pluto - not finished but hopefully getting close

A re-make of astro boy but AMAZING

^ all amazing masterpices done by the same author

Bokurano

From the author of bokurano 15 children found a man in a cave exploring and were told to play a game he designed next thing they know they are inside a giant robot and one of them at a time have to defeat 15 enemies but at a huge cost... each pilot must use their life force to pilot it...

Zetman

Think batman on crack. Evil scientists make super humans with special powers one of the scientists escape with one and hides away only to be found later. The second main character is SUPER rich and pulls a batman with crazy super high tech gadgets to fight these monster human things.

Battle Royale is great. Think Lord of the Flies mentality/psychology combined with Kill Bill violence.
Parasyte a.k.a. Kiseijū is very good.
Ubel Blatt it's ongoing, but also good.
