Man has magical powers, man uses said powers to build a harem, man has sex with said harem. That is basic plot for both Himekishi ga Classmate! and Maou no Hajimekata. In classmate the lead was reincarnated, and in Maou, the man just regained his youth through magic.

Lots of sex, impressive harems, and mindbreak in both.

Both stories involve a man using mind control to build a harem of sex slaves, which includes a knight who could be seen as a special threat to oppose/resist his powers.

Both take place in fantasy without explicitly game-like mechanics. Both have very dark themes and explicit content, and have powerful characters. Both manga also have monsters and people of various game races in them (ie elves, beatpeople, etc)

If you liked Goblin Slayer or How to Build a Dungeon: Book of the Demon King, you'd like the other because they are both a bit dark and mature...

so just read 'em, k?

Re:Monster

Re:Monster

Tomokui Kanata has suffered an early death, but his adventures are far from over. He is reborn into a fantastical world of swords and magic-- as a lowly goblin! Not content to let this stop him, the now renamed “Rou” uses his new physical abilities and his old memories to plow ahead in a world where consuming other creatures allows him to acquire their strengths and powers.

both take place in fantasy universes, with strong male mcs who build their own harems and expand their own communities that they rule over. Hajimekata is a lot more explicit, though. 

Okinodoku Desu ga, Bouken no Sho wa Maou no Mono ni Narimashita.

Okinodoku Desu ga, Bouken no Sho wa Maou no Mono ni Narimashita.

The new demon king, Vermot the 13th, is bored of his life in the demon kingdom, so he decides to take over the human world. He heads there with his sword and his pretty maid, Sara. With his powers and abilities, he is easily able to take over the first kingdom he targets, reduce the surviving princess to his pet, and slaughter any righteous heroes that come his way. He loves how he can take whatever he wants with his own power in this new life, rather than it already having been given to him (as in the demon world). He's not planning to stop his conquest anytime soon...

Both mcs are extremely powerful, and the manga centers around them building their harems. Both have explicit sex and rape, as well as blood and violence and a ruthless protagonist

Hisshou Dungeon Unei Houhou

Hisshou Dungeon Unei Houhou

One sunny leisurely day, a woman visited my house and asked me if I were interested in managing a dungeon along with support from goddess. But of course, I refused. Eh? Shouldn't I ignore a person in trouble, moreover if it's a beautiful woman? No way! That's too bothersome, and why do I have to do that? I'm perfectly satisfied with my comfortable life now, throwing it away is just overly stupid...... ...sigh, fine, so it's go to another world, become a dungeon master, manage a dungeon and deal with the Mana circulation problem? Understood, but how to do it?

Dungeon no Maou wa Saijaku!?

God left a dungeon in the hands of a boy known as the Demon Lord. After receiving multiple blessings from God, let’s start my life as a Demon Lord! …Or that’s how it was suppose to be, but God messed up and created the worlds’ weakest Demon Lord ever. To continue living, I have to continue making dungeons.This story is about an idiotic protagonist, a lonely demons’ child, an Undine who lives in a bathtub, and a princess who fell in love with the Demon Lord, even though she was human. A story that all unfolded during a bath.
