Devilman - 53 chapters in 5 volumes. It was the main inspiration behind such manga as Berserk and Kiseijuu.
Saint Seiya - 110 chapters in 28 volumes. A good series if you're interested in Greek Mythology, though it'd require buying some volumes, as there's no English scans for volumes 12-18.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1 - 44 chapters in 4.5 volumes, or 3 if going by the JoJonium edition. Of course, the overall series is far longer, but you can use this and part 2, or the 2012 anime, as a taster into the series.
Kongo Bancho - 114 chapters in 12 volumes. Made by the same person who created Nanatsu no Taizai, which must've you have gotten into.
Koroshiya Ichi - 101 chapters in 10 volumes. A pretty good psychological series that some of you will be aware of from it's movie adaptation, "Ichi the Killer".
Gou-Dere Sora Nagihara - 24 chapters in 4 volumes. One of the few series where I consider the humour to be near Gintama tier hilarity.

Again!! is on the longer side of your criteria
Aku no Hana and other stuff by the same mangaka (name currently escapes me....Shino-chan Can't Say Her Own Name and Yutai Nova are pretty good....can't find the last chap of Yutai Nova though))
Omoide Emanon is defo worth a read and is very short (just one long chapter....very long chapter lol).
Life Is Money is a decent dark psychological series but the scans are harder than Berserk's to understand. Not as good as Liar Game or even Kaiji but at only 15 chapters (might feel like twice that when you have to reread a page 8 times and still don't get what they're saying....u can read it 8 times sideways nd still know fk all).
Claymore has a lot of stupid stuff to go with some redeeming qualities and is 159 chapters long. Dunno if you could handle it so soon after Berserk.
Gokusen was ok as a casual read for me.
Nowhere Boy and Welcome to Room #305 are good manhwa (especially the latter, since I'd say it probably perfectly does what it sets out to do....actually Nowhere Boy ain't all that so far but is still ok....mebe) but the translations got disrupted a while back, dunno what the current situation is.
Welcome to the NHK! is almost good. Animu>je mange. If you want some of the psychological themes covered in it but in a more realistic/less typically manga-style melodramatic light then I'd recommend Again!!.
No.6 might be somewhat ok. Bit shounen-ai.
Onani Master Kurosawa is nice n all.
RRR (first manga I read) is still the best legit boxing manga I've read ahead of Vajimme no Ippo easily and ahead of Katsu! a fair bit). Bit rushed towards the end unfortunately. Recommended cuz MC is attempting to drink his misery away within the first few chaps.
