Ichigo Kurosaki is just your ordinary high school boy who doesn't know supernatural anything could exist for real. One day, though, he finds himself face to face with a so-called Hollow – a spirit who devour human souls – and his life changes drastically. In a situation where he couldn't believe his eyes, and didn't know how to act, Rukia Kuchiki – a Soul Reaper – appears and tries to protect Ichigo and his family. When she gets seriously injured, Ichigo, to fight the Hollow and protect his family, accepts Rukia's proposal to take her powers and become a Soul Reaper! That's how Ichigo's life as an ordinary high school student ends for good. Owari No Seraph and Bleach are both supernatural action anime. As for the plot, in both these shows we find a hot-headed protagonist with a strong desire to protect friends and family. What's more, in both shows we can find a strong family theme. Ichigo lost his mother when he was very little, and so he grew up with a strong desire to protect his sisters and his father, even though his pride will never allow him to admit it. Yuu was an orphan and managed to build a family with his brothers and sisters from the orphanage, so he, same as Ichigo, grew up with a strong desire to protect and not to see his dearest ones get hurt ever again. Another similarity can be found about weaponry, as in both shows we find a weapon imbued with spirits that can be powered and grow stronger. Probably, the most important trait Bleach and Owari No Seraph share, though, is the way Ichigo as well as Yuu started their adventure on their own, just to find themselves surrounded by friends and people willing to help them. The same relationship that Guren and Yuu share, can be seen in the relationship Urahara share with Ichigo, for example. It's fair enough to say that if you liked Owari No Seraph, you will love Bleach and viceversa!

Teito Klein is a student in the Barsburg Empire's Military Academy, which trains elite using a power called “Zaiphon”, that develops depending on the soldier's nature. Even though Teito is one of the most promising students of the academy, he is hated by his comrades since he was a slave and has no memories about his own past. Only one person, Mikage Celestine, tries to befriend him in spite everything and so they gradually become best friends. One day, Teito discovers a dark part of his past. After trying to kill Ayanami – a high-ranking official who killed Teito's father – Teito is discovered and imprisoned. Mikage, willing to help him, will find a way to make him escape and Teito will end up in 7th District Church and take in by the bishops. From that moment onward, Teito will struggle to find the truth about his own past and behind his role in the change of the fate of the world. 07-ghost and Owari No Seraph both start with the same premises; we find two orphans, and both of them with a past as slaves. Both of them lost everything and swore revenge, and their lives became all about that. They both wanted to have a better life together with their best friends, but that dream was shredded to pieces and they had to adapt to a new setting and face the fact that things went wrong with almost no possibilities to fix it back. The military theme is strong in both these shows, and the relationship between Guren and Yuu is very similar to the one between Frau and Teito, since both Guren and Frau love teasing the main protagonist. Putting the teases aside, Guren, as well as Frau, truly care about Yuu and Teito and their role is almost like that of an older brother. What else can we say? Both Teito and Yuu don't want to befriend anyone and yet they end up surrounded by friends, so they are very similar in their characters. As you can see, Owari No Seraph and 07-ghost share a lot, so if you like one, you will like the other as well!

On the island of Hinomoto, people have built station to shelter themselves from horrible monsters that can infect humans with a bite, and turn them into undead creatures known as Kabane. The only way to kill Kabane is to pierce their hearts, which are protected by iron. This story revolves around Ikoma, a boy who helps to build the Hayajiro – a locomotive running on steam – and who created his own weapon against Kabane. He was waiting for a chance to use his “Tsuranukizutsu” and prove that it worked, and when he came to know Mumei that the station was under attack, he just ran to prove the world that Kabane can be fought back! Both Owari No Seraph and Koutetsujou No Kabaneri are about mankind about to be destroyed by superhuman monsters; vampires and Kabane – that are essentially zombies. The two protagonists, Yuu and Ikoma, are both fed up with their surrounding and they want to struggle and change things up, and say to the world not to give up. What's more, Mikaela – Yuu's family – and Ikoma share the same fate; they are no longer humans, as Mikaela is half a vampire and Ikoma is half a Kabane, but managed to stop the infection somehow. So we can say that both of them are half the creatures they are fighting against. Owari No Seraph and Koutetsujou No Kabaneri are both shows about the downfall of humanity, and the courage of humans to fight the enemy to regain back what is lost. It's not a stretch, even though Koutetsujou No Kabaneri has a horror trait with it, it shares with Owari No Seraph what it takes for you to love it!

It's the year 2071 and mankind is about to be erased by monsters called “Aragami”. The organization called Fenrir was built with the purpose to fight Aragami back, and to try to save humanity. Fenrir's strength lies with the “God Eaters”, who are humans able to use the so-called “God Arcs”, the only weapons that can destroy Aragami. Lenka Utsugi is one of the most promising God Eaters, and as such, he must fight with all his might to erase Aragami once and for all! With this plot, it's clear as daylight that Owari No Seraph and God Eater share some important similarities. First of it all, both these shows are supernatural action anime. In both Owari No Seraph and God Eater we find humanity struggling to survive against monsters, via two associations; Fenrir for God Eater, and the Imperial Demon Army for Owari No Seraph. In both these shows the scenery is apocalyptic and dystopic, with a little party of people who fight to find a way to survive and have the upper hand against the enemy. Even the weaponry is similar, as the God Eaters use the God Arcs who are uncommon and are shaped on the single fighter, similarly in Owari No Seraph the demon who becomes the weapon is shaped on the single fighter. As for the main character, Lenka and Yuu don't share the same character, and yet they share the same willing to save and protect people. Probably God Eater has a more serious trait with it, as the comedy parts are near to zero, but if you liked those beautiful fights in Owari No Seraph and the main theme of humanity trying to be free again, we think that God Eater is what you all are searching for!

Rin Okumura is a troublesome and yet ordinary boy. He is fast to start a fight, doesn't want to study and he has a twin brother who, unlike him, is perfect whatever he does – Yukio. A bitter twist of fate, though, changes Rin's life for good. In fact, he discovers to be the son of Satan. If things could get worse, now Satan wants his son back and wants Rin to help him conquer “Assiah” – the human world. Rin is not one to lower his head; he decides to study to become an exorcist and change is fate by defending Assiah with his brother Yukio! These two anime share a lot of similarities, even with some characters. Let's start from the beginning; we find in both these shows main characters who are left without family. Rin and Yukio lose the man who raised them, Fujimoto, while Yuu and Mika get separated during childhood. It's interesting to see how Rin and Yuu resemble each other a lot. Both of them are hot-headed, over-confident and are prone to put themselves in trouble. In the beginning, both of them have a hard time dealing with one of their classmates, who resemble each other a lot as well. We're talking about Ryuuji Suguro and Shihou Kimizuki. Just like Suguro suddenly becomes competitive with Rin, similarly Kimizuki does the same with Yuu, and in both cases their fights start some very funny gags. We find in both Owari No Seraph and Ao No Exorcist a school setting in the beginning, and Rin, exactly like Yuu, in spite his character is befriended by a lot of people. Even Mika and Yukio share some similarities, as both of them are madly in love with their brothers, and yet they hide something. Both Owari No Seraph and Ao No Exorcist are supernatural action anime, so if you like that atmosphere, and the typical shounen protagonist, we are sure you're gonna love Ao No Exorcist!

Tokyo has become a scary city where ghouls – creatures devouring humans – live. Ghouls can hide themselves among humans, waiting in the shadows to strike. In this merciless Tokyo, Ken Kaneki lives his life as a bookworm, and he is in love with a seemingly bookworm girl, whose name is Rize Kamishiro. One day, Rize approaches Ken and asks him out, and that is the moment when Ken's life drastically change. Rize is actually a ghoul, and in the attempt to devour Ken, something goes wrong and she dies. Ken, who is on the verge of death himself, is saved and for a bad twist of events, he has some parts of Rize installed into his body during the surgery. That's how he becomes half a ghoul! Even though Tokyo Ghoul has a strong horror trait with it, it shares with Owari No Seraph important similarities. For starters, both the protagonists are orphans. Both Ken and Yuu have a friend that they consider as a family, Hide and Mika. In both these shows we find humans fighting against another race. Another important similarity is the fact that in spite Ken hates ghouls, he becomes one. Similarly, Mika who hates vampires, becomes one of them. So we find main characters hating half of what they are, and yet struggling for the sake of their beloved friends. Kaneki, as well as Mika with Yuu, wants to protect Hide from both Ghouls and humans. Both these show face the pain of losing comrades, and as a consequence both Ken and Yuu decide to become stronger to finally save humanity, even if it means sacrificing themselves. Ken and Yuu are very different in character, but they both share the willing to fight with all their might for a better future. Don't be put down by the fact that Tokyo Ghoul has no comedy part with it; it's totally worth your time... and your tears!

Tokyo Ghoul looks at the city from a corrupt and merciless perspective, as vicious evil creatures called ghouls now exist alongside humans. The worst part of it all is their ability to take the form of humans and blend in with the rest of society. Ken unfortunately meets his demise when he is confronted by a ghoul he knew, leading him down a dark path of uncertainty. After he awakens and sees the outcome of the previous event, he now realizes he has transformed into a half ghoul, half-human and must now find a way to blend in with the evil corrupt community. Izumi and Kei are driven into a world of the unknown and must now come to learn of their dark future that lies ahead. They both were taken out of their comfort zone without permission, which led them into a chaotic and bloodthirsty atmosphere where they need to come up with the right solutions to survive. Every direction they head in is full of mystery, as the enemy is always tracking down their every move with the intent to erase them from existence. Strategy, planning, and outmaneuvering their opponents is how the two must survive, otherwise they run a huge risk of being outplayed by the opposition. Both shows are a game of chess, where each step you make can only lead you closer to the check mate so everything matters.

After succumbing to the full effects of Pupa, Yume undergoes a eerie transformation into a monstrous creature with an rapacious desire for flesh; Utsutsu, on the other hand, is only partially affected, gaining the incredible power to regenerate at will. Ensuring to keep the promise he made to himself years ago, Utsutsu is willing to sacrifice everything in order to always be there for his little sister. Pupa tells the story of a loving brother's desperate attempts to save his sister, while protecting the world from her uncontrollable hunger. The great similarity between the two is how both enemies have the unquenchable thirst for blood, and must devour other humans in order to survive. Yume and Utsutsu have to use their abilities to survive, even if it means to eating other people. Izumi's enemy have that very same ability as the aliens that burrow into a body must eat other humans to maintain their energy, and grow in strength. Both shows leave you questioning what could possibly happen, as each scene leads you down an uncertain road, and the enemy always planting different traps to throw you off. It shows us cannibalism in the extreme extent, which is just a reflection of how our own reality must cope with these sorts of problems on a daily basis.

Shinsekai yori tells a fascinating story of Saki and her friends as they journey to grow into their roles in a Utopian based world. Accepting these roles, however, might not come easy when faced with the dark and twisted truths of society, and the impending havoc born from the new corrupt world. Two opposing factions are neck and neck with eachother, as one tries to outsmart the other in a battle for supremacy. Izumi and Saki are thrown into uncharted territory where they must now face the shocking reality that lies in front of them. The premise of both stories are that each main character must confront a challenge, and each new one presents a much higher difficulty than the last. Certain scenes throughout both shows blur the line between what's good or bad, and so the viewer is drawn into these events along with the protagonist. Both anime question the judgment of the two characters, but also leave you scratching your head as to what you would do in that very moment.

A race of cannibal monsters called the Shokujinki exists and it is the job of the Kifuuken, an elite group of beast-hunters, to stop them. Toshihiko, an expert swordsman and son of the Kifuuken organization's leader, puts himself in an awkward position and falls in love at first sight with a beautiful girl named Yuka; however, to Toshihiko's surprise he comes to realize that Yuka is in fact a Shokujinki. Kemonozume explores a territory that most find very gruesome and inhumane. The truth is that this type of ruthless behavior exists in our reality, and has existed throughout our life span. Cannibalism is the act in which one human thrives off the flesh of another human, in order to survive. In both shows, there exists a race of monsters that have come to Earth to feed on unsuspecting prey, and to take control over the human race. Toshihiko much like Izumi, come across these monsters on a daily basis, and at some point must build relationships with a few in order to survive. Their lives become a race in order to stop the major threat that inflicts suffering upon society before all of humanity is wiped out.

Humanity has been pushed to the brink of extinction following the evolution of man-eating monsters called “Aragami”. They conquered their territory, devouring almost everything in their path and leaving nothing behind. To defeat them, an organization named Fenrir was established as Earth's answer to save humanity through the use of “God Eaters. One such God Eater is Lenka Utsugi, a New-Type whose God Arc takes the form of both blade and gun.  Lenka must master his God Arc if he is to fulfill his desire of wiping out the Aragami once and for all. The monsters continue to multiply while the fragments of humanity struggle to survive. God Eater. much like Parasyte, features characters who have acquired their ability from the enemy, and now must use that very same power against them to protect Earth. Both Lenka and Izumi must form a bond with their weapons and master them before the threat becomes too big to handle. Each must form an alliance with various individuals in order to seek out more answers behind the invasion, and use the data to outwit their opponents without harming too many casualties. It's an action packed adventure that leaves you guessing at every moment, as to what could possibly happen to the main character if they make one fatal mistake.

The story starts off Jin Kanzaki, a young man with the ability to transform into a superhuman being known as Zet, and Kouga Amagi, a young man with a strong sense of justice who uses technology to fight as Alphas. The fates of these two men and those around them come together as they fight to protect mankind and destroy monstrous man eating abominations known as Players. The Players in Zetman have a similar mission and that's to burrow themselves into the skin of innocent humans, and using them as tools for their destructive purposes. Both main protagonists must join an organization that have all the answers to their existence, and must use this information to destroy the enemy before it's too late. Kouga and Jin work as a team using their superhuman powers to fight off evil, much like Izumi and Migi in their world. Their fate relies on their ability to work together under severe pressure, while unveiling the weak spots of the enemy and eliminating them as swiftly as possible.

This heavyweight Ground-type evolves from Hippopotas, and as its name implies, greatly resembles a hippopotamus. Its coloration depends on its gender, but both male and female Hippowdon have several holes on their backs and snouts, in which they store sand used to generate sandstorms during attacks. It is an incredibly aggressive Pokémon with large teeth and a jaw powerful enough to crush a car!

Nidoking is the final evolution of the Nidoran and evolves from the Nidorino. It is a Poison-Ground hybrid, and one of the few gender-specific evolutions. Its female equivalent is the Nidoqueen. It is a large, bipedal purple Pokémon with lizard-like features, including large ears and a horn sprouting from its head. It is another very powerful Pokémon and uses its tail to smash its prey before ruthlessly charging them down with its steel-like hide. It can inflict Poison damage using the ability Poison Sting, and can inflict massive damage with the move Thrash, although at the risk of leaving the user confused.

Gastrodon is a dual-type Water/Ground Pokémon with two distinct colorations and slightly different features, depending on what side of the Sinnoh mountain range it lives on. It lives in shallow tidal pools and evolves from Shellos. Like its earlier form, it greatly resembles a much cuter version of a sea slug. Despite its appearance, it has only one weakness (Grass-type), and is capable of dishing out surprising amounts of damage with its poisonous attacks, and is overall quite well-balanced.

Steelix is a dual-type Steel/Ground Pokémon that evolves from Onix. It is a serpentine creature made up of discreet, rock-like sections that are a steely grey, and lead to its massive head, which possesses a wide jaw filled with large teeth capable of chewing through boulders. While it is powerful in its standard form, it also possesses a Mega Evolution, in which the cells in its body crystallize, making it almost impervious to damage. However, it's powered up form isn’t without its drawbacks, as its immense strength comes at the cost of speed.

Excadrill is a Ground-Steel hybrid that evolves from Drilbur. Like Drilbur, it resembles a mole, although this evolved state resembles a warrior, with its sharp front claws and a large blade extending from the top of its head. It is capable of straightening its entire body which it can then spin rapidly, to drill through the earth, and even metals like iron and steel, which is valuable when used for construction, but can also devastate subway systems and man-made tunnels. It sometimes starts with the move Mud Slap, which does Ground damage and lowers an opponent’s accuracy.

Evolving from Rhydon, Rhyperior is the final evolution of Rhyhorn. It is a Ground-Rock hybrid that resembles a cross between a dinosaur and rhinoceros. It is bipedal and has a brown, hard, plate-like skin, as well as a drill-shaped horn coming out of the center of its head. It is an immensely powerful Pokémon, capable of toppling buildings and boring through diamonds with its horn. It is also super tough, capable of withstanding extreme heat, and even molten magma. One of its means of attack is to take rocks and boulders and insert them into the holes in its hands, after which it will fire them at its enemies like massive bullets.

Swampert evolves from Marshtomp and is the final evolution of the infamous Mudkip. It is a Water/Ground Pokémon with a large cobalt blue body accentuated by head and tail fins and is capable of walking on its hind legs. Despite its somewhat frog-like appearance, Swampert is strong enough to move boulders, and swims as fast as the best of ‘em! It has a powerful underwater vision, and its senses are keen enough to detect stormy weather, which it uses to safeguard its nests. Swampert has access to a Mega Evolution, in which it gains considerable bulk, giving it the look of a prize fighter. In this form, it fills its organs with air in order to give more power to its attacks. Swampert is also only weak to Grass-type Pokémon, making it even more of a force to be reckoned with.

Garchomp is a dual-type Dragon/Ground Pokémon that evolves from Gabite and is the final evolution of Gible. It is a blue draconian Pokémon that walks on its hind legs. Because it has horns and a snout, as well as a fin and tail, it is rather shark-like in appearance. Its body is also covered with horns, and it has functional wings that allow it to fly at incredible speeds. On top of its three evolutions, it also has access to a Mega Evolution, a temporary, more powerful form that allows it to grow in size, making its claws more akin to scythes, which bring even more pain to an opponent’s creature!

Landorus is a dual-type Ground/Flying Legendary Pokémon. It is unique in the fact that, while it doesn’t evolve from or into any other Pokémon, it does have another discreet form that changes its abilities and appearance. In its incarnate form, Landorus greatly resembles a Djinn, with muscular arms and a cloud-like lower body. In its other form, Therian, Landorus becomes a lean, orange, quadrupedal feline, with could-like paws and a tail. It is the leader of the group of Pokémon called the “Forces of Nature,” comprised of itself, Tornadus, and Thundurus, and is worshiped for its helpful nature in harvesting.

Worthy of the number one spot, Groudon is a legendary Ground-type Pokémon that possesses the incredible ability to expand continents. Because of this, it has an ancient rivalry with Kyogre, a Pokémon with the ability to expand oceans, and whenever they meet they engage in ferocious battle. It is a massive bipedal red dinosaur covered with spikes and has blue stripes that glow when it is charging its power. As its status as a legendary Pokémon would imply, it is immensely powerful, capable of evaporating large amounts of water and causing volcanic eruptions. The mascot for Pokémon Ruby, it is the only one capable of learning Precipice Blade, which causes Ground damage to the target and adjacent Pokémon.
