Black Bullet

The remaining humans risks their entire race on a fight for survival or face extinction, the rich and powerful ruled for either the good of everyone or the greed for power. 'Black Bullet' demonstrates that good and bad are not very different depending on how you perceive it. 

'Shingeki no Kyojin' has a darker history as the people have lived under fear for a longer period of time and any beings that are different from them have to be destroyed. Kill or be killed is a way to describe the ways of life of the people.  Freedom of action is not permitted to the greatest of pleasure but just like 'Black Bullet', it proves that good and evil are just lines drawn to preserve order and peace. 

'Black Bullet' puts the spotlight on the discrimination of species where the infected humans are classed as the villain. Children are forced into a series of life and death missions where the casualty rate is of no concern, what matters the most is that the so-called humans get to live another day. read more

Humanity on the brink of extinction. They built a barrier/wall to protect themselves from the Titan/Gastrea. That wall will soon collapse.   Only a select few of people are capable of killing these Titan/Gastrea. End of humanity is upon them. Will they survive in the end? Kaji Yuuki does the voice of the main character in both series.

In order to to save humanity from the brink of extinction from a mysterious catastrophe, the remaining people have built a barricade around the area that they live in. In both series, only a few special individuals have the power to fight the monsters. While SnK is set in a medieval-ish world, Black Bullet is set in a futuristic one. 

Both MC are voiced by Yuki Kaji.

report Recommended by F1Krazy

Throughout watching the series Black Bullet, I can definitely note some key similarities to that of the 2013 success "Shingeki no Kyojin". 

Firstly, the most apparent similarity is that of the theme subject that evolves through both of these animes- Humanity suffered a terrible crisis in the past, and built themselves protective 'walls' or 'barriers' to help prevent the crisis from reoccurring. What was the crisis? The evolution of dominant species who have it in their power to wipe out the entire of humanity. In Shingeki no Kyojin these manifest themselves as 'titans' who posses a minorly gigantic human appearance, and in Black Bullet they manifest themselves as giant insect-appearing 'Gastrea'. These animes also prove themselves to be similar within the plot, in that there are specially trained humans who require some sort of aid in order to fight and combat the giants that may infiltrate the walls. In Shingeki no Kyojin their aid is the 3D Maneuver gear, and in Black Bullet their aids are the child-like companions whom posses unique abilities, as well as the specially designed bullets.

It is also important to note that the protagonist for both animes are voiced by the same actor (this is for those who watch it subbed and not dubbed). In my opinion I also find the anime openings to have some sort of similar genre of music to them, but this in itself is my pure opinion and some people may not view this to be 100% accurate. 

There are also similarities with regards to the spoilers that are revealed within the shows, but due to my interest into not wanting to spoil the show, you will just have to find out by watching the two and judging for yourself. read more

If you enjoy Hidan no Aria where guns are blazing and some great action scenes, then you might like Black Bullet. In both of these series, the main male character are mostly partner up with a main female character that usually have a task of protecting the city or eliminating the threat. Guns are usually a primarily weapon that the main characters used, but there are supernatural powers that can be used as a secondary weapon.

There are a lot of parallels that can be drawn between the main characters from the functionality of the character down to the looks. 

Kinji is like Rentarō as they both function as police officier who never stray far from path of righteousness. Both have a lot of potential that they are consciously hiding from everyone. Aria is Enju (tsundere version), Shirayuki is like Kisara (if she became is she is Initiator), Riko is like Miori (both are schemers). 

But all in all, corresponding Hidan no Aria characters have ecchiness on steroids.

Both consist primarily of a typical slightly-moody light-novel protagonist surrounded by a harem of loli girls geared for combat. 
WorldEnd's mc has a slightly better-constructed backstory and reasons for brooding, and the mc, while still (over)powerful in his own way, isn't capable of fighting side-by-side with the loli girls like in Black Bullet. WorldEnd is also more lighthearted with less emphasis on life-and-death situations.

Go watch it. Seriously it's like someone got so frustrated watching Black Bullet that they decided to make the show a second time but right.
So you get your giant beasts and the last hope of humanity turns out to be cute lolis with a short lifespan, but more !
First: it has an end. Like, a real, satisfactory one (you're not ready for the feels).
Second: The main character is actually not a lolicon who doesn't assume. Do you imagine ? He treats kids like genuine kids and not potential sexual partners ! I've waited for that kind of character for faaaaaar too long.
Last but not least (like, at all): THE SOUNDTRACK IS STUNNINGLY WONDERFUL. You're not ready for the intro scene of the year.

- The action combat is very similar as they both fight in pairs together using martial arts technique or unique items/skills. the MC plays as the "controller" often calling orders, while the other is "supernatural" and plays a unique important role.
- Both have a younger female protaganist that does most of the fighting. 
- In both, the main characters try to rise through the ranks, and become #1.
- The character relationship in both are a "Master-Servant" relationships.  Like between Rentarou Satomi and Enju Aihara are the same as Raishin Akabane and Yaya, and it is also same how both Rentarou and Raishin don't see there "servants" as "servants" but as actual people. read more

Little girls used as a weapon. Main hero treats them with care, for some others they just instrument. 
Both anime full of drama and angst.
Gunslinger girl is more mature and realistic title - without your average japanese highschooler, who can save the world. On other hand Black Bullet is your average shounen anime. 

report Recommended by Gokudo-kun

Young girls with powers/enhancements are partnered with older males and made to fight. In Black Bullet it's to save the world from virus-made monsters, while in Gunslinger Girl it's to be assassins and protectors for the Italian government. Black Bullet seems lighter in tone than Gunslinger Girl, but they both make a point of mentioning the tragedy of the necessity to use young children in their positions.  

report Recommended by noirgrimoir

In both series, there is a bond like master and servant, in this context is officer and his helper. The officer is man and the helper is a little girl. 
The girl has special ability. In GSG, the girl has a kind of transplanted human body which makes them stronger than any ordinary human, while in Black Bullet the girl is a special breed infected from monsters called Gastrea which also makes them stronger. These girls are so agile in combat, helping their officer to solve cases and beat bad guys. 
Oh, and in both series there is some gun involved.

Gunslinger Girl is essentially a much darker and serious version of Black Bullet. It is a true hidden gem in my opinion.

The things Black Bullet have in common are that there are monsters who kill humans. These monsters get killed by girls/women who are part monster part human. These girls/women have recognizable appearances. In Claymore it's golden hair and silver eyes and in Black Bullet it's little girls with red eyes. 
The rest of the story isn't that similar in my opinion.  

report Recommended by Amethyst_Soul

In both worlds humans coexist with dangerous predators, in Claymore its Yomas and in Black Bullet it is Gastrea. The only ones that can defeat them are humans who are part monster themselves.

Similarities 
Both Heroines are part monster. 
There's discrimination towards the hybrid humans.
Hybrids can only be female.
The heros both have lost loved ones to the monsters.
There's a dark ambience and atmosphere. 

report Recommended by kinoiri

Factual similarities: Both anime have humanity fighting monsters by using monster-human hybrids (all of whom happen to be female) who are at a constant risk of becoming monsters themselves. Discrimination against them is a common theme. The main focus is on a pair consisting of a human male and one of the aforementioned hybrids. 

My opinion: I didn't like either show, but I think Claymore is the less worse of the two. The only major issue with Claymore is really just one character. Black Bullet, on the other hand, has a whole host of problems. BB is one of the more generic shows I've watched; I can't put my finger on what exactly made me dislike it because there were so many reasons.  read more

Both are set in post-apocalyptic worlds ravaged by infection spreading monsters (Gastrea in "Black Bullet", "Them" in "Highschool of the Dead") and focus on a group who work together in order to survive and combat the threat. The main characters are also quite similar:

Rentaro=Takashi===> Both are generally nice guys whose actions tend to be very pragmatic, and can fight both physically and with a gun.

Enju=Rei===> Both are the kindest of their groups who show sympathy even for the infected beings, and tend to call out the others for their more ruthless actions.

Kisara=Saeko===> Both are beautiful, highly-skilled swordswomen with a very violent and unstable side.

Anime: Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo

Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo addpermalink

In an almost seemingly peaceful city bounded by natural order lies a dark secret. The minds of the society has been poisoned which in turn leads to a bizarre belief that no everyone is equal. It just goes to show that an unfounded law supported by absurd theories may spread chaos in the long run.

'Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo' focuses on a naive human race where control is everything. It shows how fragile the human minds are when manipulated to discriminate their own kind. The human outcast are trained in slaughtering enemies that would threaten the existence of mankind, making it a three way melancholy cycle. The unique thing about this show is that it brings in a huge variety of genres that normally wouldn't blend well together but in this case it did, not to mention the OST is something to be applauded. Overall the show is set up to fail in a sense but succeed in the end.

'Black Bullet' pushes the boundaries of cruelty to a whole new level while revealing the true nature of the humans we are sworn to protect. Children are forced onto the battlefield fighting men's battle and are widely expendable while the pitiful normal humans show no remorse towards these sacrifices. Being neither monster or human, the children were placed on a despairing wheel of fate where they had to kill one half (monster) of their kind and being rejected by the other half (human). The storyline actually stands firm throughout the character development and you will find yourself hyped with the breathtaking OSTs.  read more

Coppelion addpermalink

Both anime feature the following:

A modern world in which humanity is near extinction and trying to survive.
Genetically superior/modified humans (mostly girls) that are resilient to the source of extinction and fighting to save humanity.

Differences: Black Bullet's affliction is a virus that mutates people into giant monsters, and Coppelion is simply the aftermath of a giant nuclear explosion and people surviving areas with nuclear waste.

I am more so recommending Black Bullet to people who watched Coppelion, as Coppelion seems much less interesting to me. Black Bullet seems to be more action packed and has a bit of romance and a loving loli. Coppelion is more of rescue operations being performed by girls who can survive breathing toxic air within nearly abandoned ruins of urban areas, though it does have some gunfight related conflicts between humans. Both also do have some conflicts between superhumans. I suppose I would say Coppelion is more emotional and in a more devastated seeming environment.

As a side note, I would describe Black Bullet as "Attack on Coppelion". read more

While it may seem that these two don't have an awful lot in common, and they don't, they both aired around the same time and feature a main male character with a young girl for a sidekick, whom they view as a little sister but are shown to have a bit of a crush on them.

No injured survivors can be left on the battlefield... Even your closest friend might turn into your enemy! (Not a spoiler btw) They live in a somewhat secluded world from the outside, safe from the no mans land inside the cities. Simply the pacing and over all world build felt like both creators took inspiration from the same source.

Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei addpermalink

Both  protagonists are living in a sci-fi futuristic world setting, one that has learned to use magic, another always in danger of being attacked by gastrea. however both protagonists seem to be underestimated in Tatsuya's case would be that he is a 'weed' and in Rentaros case, he and his partner are lowly ranked at the start. Both of them begin to show their true powers in the middle of the storyline and slowly gain recognition and acknowlegements regarding their strengths. If you like OP protagonists, this is the anime for you.

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka addpermalink

Both anime give you the same aura -a boy who wants to be stonger, has excellent potential, willing to help his new family and a loli girl that is crazy in love with him in their imaginary relationship in her head. If you enjoyed DanMachi you will really like Black Bullet, as well.

Tokyo Ghoul √A addpermalink

"Black Bullet" and "Tokyo Ghoul √A" are both super-powered action shounen anime series with the male protagonist being someone who tries too hard to do everything alone in order to protect those who he cares for around him.

In their respective societies, there exists groups of powerful individuals who are discriminated against due to what they do as well as their origins. These two shows are also both straightforward in their dilemmas and uses backstory to add emotional impact to the lead characters.

World Trigger addpermalink

Both of them are similar because in both animes there are monsters who came into the human's world and start attacking.
In both of them the humanity strikes back and defends itself.
In both of them there's something unnatural which can defeat the monsters (in world trigger it's Trion, in Black Bullet it's the cursed children).

Both are sci-fi actions where humans fights strong insect-like enemies. Some of the humans also have specia powers similar to the monsters. Both are violent, but Terra Formars is heavily censored (the tv version, that is).

Hunter x Hunter (2011) addpermalink

These 2 anime's here are amazing animes, they consist of strong plot aswell as moving the story long towards lots of fight scences. More or so Black Bullet is more about saving the world and trying to train and become stronger, while HxH has more violence IMO.

Enjoy!
