Ajin

Both main characters are dragged into being different types of mutant humans. The powers in Tokyo Ghoul are more like a natural defense mechanism they are born with and in Ajin they are immortals and some can control a type of stand like in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Both shows are dark and dramatic, the key difference is that Ajin is a lot more cynical and Tokyo Ghoul likes to explore the interactions amongst Ghouls 

Ajin is the new Sei no Kakuritsu in my opinion because, the key about these two series is the suspense. Kei reminds me about Shinichi in some ways like :The poor main character who wants a normal life but, BOOM something comes on and change his entire life. Also,while Shinichi has Migi, Kei has his phantom or whatever it is.  

- Similar in vibe and also soundtrack - Ajin has a lot more action than Death Note - Shinigamis and Ajins look similar - Strong police force involved - Anti hero characters  

Both main protagonist and antagonist turn into superhuman and the feel is the same 

On ajin they have a creature that can become like a stand. While ajin more hated on the stands, because they are more hard to control and can go berserk. jojo they are used for more on the good and isn't really known to the government and or police.  

Monsters and people with supernatural abilities both feature heavily in these series. 

* Both series shows supernatural beings ( Diclonius & Ajins ) being hunted by humans... * Both shows are dark and dramatic... * Both MC's ( Lucy & Kei ) becomes cold hearted killers ( mostly for self defense ) * Both Lucy & Kei has helpful people around them... * Both are intense as hell... * Both has 13 episodes in total ( Ajin has movies ) 

What makes us want to live and what makes us so scared of dying? But if you could not die, what than? Would your views chance, would you still be scared of your own death, or would you face it again and again until you find the life you can be happy in. Both of these psichological thrillers deal with these question in verry different situations and if you like the story of on you will surely like the other 

Both are about humans and some other species coexisting (or not). Both are quite violent and have similar messages about what it means to live/survive. Shiki is much more serious and has much more philosophical grey-area to it, Ajin is often more light-hearted and sometimes comical, but still serious when it needs to be. If you like one you might like the other. 

Protagonists of both shows have similar personality, and they're being thrown into the action due to circumstances while neither of them would want to be a part of it, seeking for safe and comfortable life by (almost) any means, always preferring rationality over morality. 

Both anime feature an organization which experiments on superhuman beings in a massive government conspiracy. The main protagonist in both anime possesses superhuman powers and are now being hunted by an evil organization. They both have plenty of action, violence, blood, and gore. If you like one, you should enjoy the other.  

The main protagonist in both Ajin and Devilman: Crybaby are thrown into a life of darkness and possess a special ability (Kei being immortal and Akira Fudo becoming a demon). In both anime, the main character must gradually gain control of their newfound powers and develop into a more aggressive, formidable, and determined person. They both have a dark and gritty atmosphere and are loaded with violence, action, and blood. If you like one, you might like the other.  

- Both main characters are being chased by the government. - They have been treated in a very cruel and unjust way at some point. - They're not exactly positive characters. - Both of them are 'superior' to most other people - Nine is supersmart, while Kei has superhuman abilities. - There are terrorists/weapons/riots/bombs and stuff. - Both anime contain violence, blood, murder. - They have similar music. - And they really give off a similar feel in general. Also, there are some really emotional moments. 

Both having similar art style and vibe to the show, both great ones 

The characters and the general atmosphere are quite similar.The characters are sometimes cruel or the protagonist isn't like your typical protagonist and can be cold hearted.Also the dark creatures in Ajin are similar to the headless rider in Durarara.Plus they are mystery and supernatural genres. 

Are they human? Not exactly, in Ajin, Nagai Kei is an Ajin or Demi-Humans if you prefer. Ajin's look like normal humans on the outside, but are actually immortal and have the ability to summon an IBM (Invisible Black Matter), which cannot be seen by the naked eye. While in Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, Ikoma is a Kabaneri, something inbertween a human and a kabane. If you are suspected or confirmed to be a Kabane or Ajin you will try to be captured by someone, and eventually turned in to the government. The government will kill Ajins over and over, while in Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress they will just make you to use the suicide bag. Each show also has an old friend of the main character who helps them, even after everyone else has declared them a threat to the rest of the society. Each show has a unique art style. They are both animated by up and coming studios, Polygon Pictures (Ajin), Wit Studio (Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress). read more 

They cgi art is pretty simular. Both have sci-fi/action stories with lots of violence. 

Dark world full of violence, gore, inhumane actions, horror. Both anime makes you question what's good and bad, right or wrong. Police forces try to stop criminals/ajin, because they're threat to society.  

Both have great and detailed animation that gives a lot to the atmosphere of anime and feeling. Lots of action, fights, deaths, blood and gore. Ajin has more of terrorism and killing, whilst Another has some detective horror story.  

In both shows the main character discovers he's immortal and has to flee or else they'd become the subject of some cruel experiments. I recommend it one way because Pupa's plot doesn't make sense, while Ajin's storyline is coherent and engaging. so if you liked Pupa go ahead and give Ajin a try. 

This movie BLAME! without a doubt is amazing. The similar between Ajin and Blame! is breathtaking events happening through out the movie and the series, It gets you heart raceing of what is going to happen next. 1. Amazing Animation 2. Amazing Cast 3. Amazing Story I recommend to watch both of these anime. The action is amazing and everything else is to. Im not putting to much details but its amazing!!!  

I consider these two anime the two best Thriller anime i've ever seen. And debating, Monster is probably the best Thriller anime existing. They both have really smart MCs and deliver a story, which seems unbelievable hard for them. You could not think of a way for these characters, to solve their problems and the surrounding crimes. Both anime are dark, gloomy and real. At least they feel so. Both anime have several plot twists, interesting characters and story lines and deep deep character development. 

Both give out similar vibe and are thrillers jokers game is about bunch of spys and ajin is about immortal involved in terrorism. Both series are doing similar work. both have some mystery to it both are multi-focused character series (ajin to a lesser extend)  

Ajin and Big Order have a lot of similarities. To start, the main protagonist isn't exactly human. In Ajin he is an Ajin, which is a human who cannot die. While in Big Order, the main character is an Order user, his Order basically destroys everything around him. Each protagonist has a mummy like creature he can summon. The female main character in Big Order also, is immortal and regenerates after she is killed. In each series the protagonist has a younger sister who is in a hospital. To finish, each protagonist is being hunted by a group of people. 

The powers of the characters in both anime are very similar as in both cases the characters summon monsters that they can control to fight for them. 

EIS and Ajin have similar dark and offensive themes with a main character that gains a crazy amount of strength although EIS is more of a power fantasy with no power creep. Ajin takes more of the struggle as a result of MC's sudden climb to power and that's what made me enjoy Ajin a lot more in comparison. If you don't like CGI anime then Ajin might not be for you. 

Both deal with humans who acquired supernatural abilities, terrorists who want the country to be theirs and those who want to stop them, along with the police. In addition, they show the sufficiency of those who are gifted, by being marked, by being trampled by even the humanity that is once part of them. 

Both very beautiful anime's. With beautiful witty character dynamics.  

Both wanna explain the humankind. With the simple question: What makes you human? Very similar feeling but in Ansatsu Kyoushitsu is the fokus more on the emotional thining which I liked more. 

In Ajin, the existence of these “inhuman” people is common knowledge but the monsters of Gleipnir are but a secret to everyone except the parties involved. However, both Ajin and Gleipnir feature main characters whose lives are inadvertently changed because of a strange property present in their bodies. Their situations are both showing the perspective of a high schooler with a promising future having to deal with the violent consequences of being inhuman. 

MC had a conflict with his life and then, BAM! His life is getting much more worse after finding out that he was not a human! Now, he'll face much more pain than before These anime are sci-fi genre, packed with bloody action and plot twists 

These two anime have a similar premise with a non human character being hunted by a evil government because they are considered to be a danger to the people. These two have different tones, but they still focus on the idea that our main character is more human than the people going after them.  

In these two anime, you have a boy main character who is not normal and is trying to fight for the worlds future. Both anime also have the main character that is caught between what they believe is right and wrong. They may be targeted at different demographics, but they do have a similar dark supernatural tone to both of these shows.  

Dark anime genre with gore and an immortal MC. 

Similarities 1 Action packed full of gore blood thriller and horror 2 Both have 3D CGI animation 3 Intense action scenes 4 Both have a plot in which two species are trying to annihilate other and became dominant 5 similar setting and similar MC  

If you liked Ajin or the Promised Neverland... You'd enjoy the other. Both are set in a world that has a much darker side to it, the main cast are both struggling to survive in a world they thought they knew. The people they thought were friends, may or may not still be their friends. Both anime are complex, have a great pacing to them and contain 'monsters'.  

I don't like anime with silly characters where decisions don't really make sense and their thinking seems random. Both these anime have intelligent characters, where you can only be pleasantly impressed with their decisions and thinking patterns. I guess both have a psychological aspect. They're not at all similar in terms of the plot. It's weird to say this since they both involve supernatural elements to the plot (time travel for Boku Dake, and Ajin creatures in Ajin), but they're both very realistic in a sense, I guess because of the way the characters respond to situations and the internal consistency. You won't feel like you're being treated like an idiot by these anime. 9/10 or 10/10 for both read more 

Both series have a similar feeling throughout. They both focus on a Cat and Mouse style involving strategy and outmaneuvering one another through smarts and leverage. 

3D animation, similar feel, desperation, and monsters  

Ajin and Demi-chan are both about the rise of ajin in the modern world and how they are delt with. Ajin however, is much more serious. 

both are a "Immortal Human vs Mortal Human" series both character appearance are similar (Look at Izumi from Ajin and Ennis from Baccano!) But beside it, Baccano! Use Alchemy And Ajin have some science theory / reaction for explain what is the Immortals are.. 

Two and very very different anime, yet they have some things in common. Detailed and great art style ( even though ajin has cgi, it helps to create a darker atmoshpere and makes anime even better) Soundtracks are used well to help people to get in touched with characters and anime. Make it intense or easy and enjoyable. Also same voice actors 

Sentai Daishikkaku and Ajin Demi-Human approach the journey of the anti-hero spiced with the theme of immortality and regeneration in very similar ways. In Ajin, the demi-humans possess an innate ability to regenerate, rendering them nearly immortal. This unique trait becomes both a gift and a curse, as they are relentlessly pursued by authorities eager to research or eliminate them just like the Dragon Rangers tend to exploit this trait unique to dustmen during their staged battles with these villains. The black soot that emanates from both demi-human and dustmen while regenerating from their wounds is a stark visual reminder of otherness their bodies possess and the dangers they face in spite of this advantage. So all in all Sentai Daishikkaku offers a satirical take on superhero teams, where the villains often display similar regenerative abilities but with a comedic twist. Whereas Ajin delves deeper into the ethical complexities of inhuman experimentation and societal responses. read more 

Searching for people who keep coming back to life just like in Ajin? Well, Mermaid Forest is just like that. In Mermaid Forest, those who eat mermaid flesh become immortal. The protagonist, who is 500 year old, search for a way to turn back into a normal human. The plot may not sound so similar to Ajin, but whenever some character dies and comes back to life I simply can't think about anything else. It really gives a lot of Ajin vibes.  

Both about discrimination of special powered humans by the system and their struggle to survive and fight back. 

Both of these anime contain elements of horror, mystery, and supernatural. In fact dark psychological elements are profound characteristics. Both delve into the realm of the human psyche. 

- 3D animation - Dark and at times gorey, violent - Lots of action, fast paced - Explores themes of social isolation and persecution 

Do you want to become immortal? Maybe you should first watch Ajin and Mnemosyne and reconsider. In both anime the main characters as well as some of the antagonists are immortal; and in both series these immortals will have to suffer a great deal because of their immortality; such as being used as living test subjects for the weapon industry or used to harvest an infinite amount of organs. Both anime have plenty of action and some gore...and they might make you reconsider whether immortality would be a blessing or a curse. 

Nakano Kou from Ajin reminds me a lot of Shirou from FSN. Even though Ajin 1st season is mostly about Nagai Kei, Kou has a more significant role in the 2nd season. Kou and Shirou are both redheads with similar hairstyles; and wouldn't mind risking their own lives to save others. Luckily for them they are both near immortal (Many characters from Ajin because they are an ajin, Shirou because of some kind of plot device). Both anime have plenty of gore and epic action scenes. A major difference is that Ajin has more realistic characters IMO, while in FSN the characters are mostly archetypes (tsundere etc.).  read more 

Both are mystery with a fast pace and surprising twists. There are ex-soldiers and a criminal mastermind in both who have a take on life like a big game. There are some supernatural elements in both. In both anime we discover the hidden truth as the protagonist searches for it, through their findings. 

Both anime are dark supernatural anime. The main protagonist (Yakumo Fuuji in 3x3 Eyes and Kei Nagai in Ajin) in both titles are immortal beings that can not die. The main protagonist in both titles got hurt in similar a deadly accident and end up finding out that they are immortal. The main protagonist in both series has a friend on their side to help them out. Both titles have action, violence, blood, and gore with a very dark and gritty atmosphere. If you enjoyed one, you will enjoy the other.  

Boah and Ajin both have a main character who is being pursued by a villainous organization and is attempting to be killed off by scientists. In both anime, the main character is deemed a risk to others and has a companion to assist them in escaping evil. They are also highly action-packed and violent. If you like one, you'll like the other. 

Both have similar animation style. End of the world feeling, Ajin with indestructible demi-humans and Seoul-yeok with zombies. Both explore true human nature in the face of sheer terror. 

- CGI heavy: much smoother and slicker in Gyakusatsu Kikan, MMD level blockiness in Ajin - Broody, dark atmosphere: because who needs colour when you have E D G E. - Edgy af: gore, blood, death, suffering, the usual. - Cold, logical, emotionless, ultra-super-duper-extra intelligent protag: to get you feel hot under that fedora. - Very nice animation: far more consistent and nicer in Gyakusatsu Kikan. Great fight scenes in Ajin too but being a TV series, they were obviously more time/budget restricted. - Philosophising: if we talk enough about the nature of morality they won't see the glaring plot holes right? That said, if you did enjoy one, give the other a try.  read more 

Very rarely are whole full length TV series made in full 3D like these two shows are. The atmosphere/genre/style/setting/plot/characters are all very different but the 3D visuals make them interesting curiosities. 

Dark world, smart and intellectual main characters, lots of action . Good character and story development.  

Both anime are mysterious and psychological. Main character is smart, but emotionless and very monotonic. Satou and Gray have the same voice actor Houchu Ohtsuka.  

Dark atmosphere of the world, both series composed by Hiroshi Seko. Biggest thing they have in common is showing how few can control the many. Big corporations are testing new species whilst public knows nothing about it or are forced to thing that it's helpful and nice for ajin too. In Banana Fish it's the mafia ordering everyone around, getting people in important government positions do what ever mafia wants and public are left in the dark. Sort of soft disclosure.  

• Naive main character, living in his own perfect world, trying to be a decent human being. • Both MC's go through traumatic incidents that changes their life. •They both train to become stronger, better, smarter etc. • Nagai has the intelligence, while Tanjiro has a sensitive nose. • Both anime have fight between humanity and demi-humans. Urokodaki and Satou have the same voice actor. Tosaki and Gyuu too.  

Though the genres are a bit different both anime have great and pretty realistic animation, dark atmosphere, intelligent main characters.And there's a weird villain who lost the sense of humanity.  

Dark world where humans and and "monsters" live in the same society. ( Ajin (demi-humans) and ghouls). Both protagonists are living normal life, studying in school when accident happens and they find out that they're not humans anymore. Both main characters are being hunted by the police forces and special ops. Both MC's experience a lot of pain and are subjects of experiments and insane abuse. Lots of action, violence, gore, fight between humanity and ajin/ghouls. Psychological, questioning morals of what's good and bad/right or wrong, and humanity.  

These anime have a similar feel to them to me. Both have an odd disconnect between the protagonist and everyone else seeming to know more about what's going on. 

Devils Line follows a similar formula to Ajin in which it talks about a different race amongst humans who are potentially dangerous. It also talks about the political aspects of one group against another, the public's reaction, and government involvement. The action and the moral discussions are also very similar. The only difference between the two is the romance aspect in Devils Line, but it makes the show that much more charming.  

What makes the two series alike is that only a certain number of people posses something the majority does not have. In Mirrai Nikki it's the phones that the character in the show posses and the ability to know the outcome of future events. For Ajin, some characters posses immortality. While Mirrai Nikki's "God" literally gives a handful of people a survival game, for Ajin it is just survival and no "wish" would be granted to any of the characters ( although one or two of the characters in the anime make it seem like it is a game ).Furthermore both anime series makes you have a sense of uncertainty for the characters' personality and who the main character should really trust. read more 

If you are looking for recommendations after completing either of these anime then you are not bothered by 3D computer graphics animation. That being said, Ajin and Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 are centered around a conflict between humans and non-human entities (Ajins and Post Humans). Government players are trying to capture and control these non-human entities while the Ajins and Post Humans are pursing their own agenda for society. People will always judge Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 more harshly because it does not measure up against other titles in the franchise, but it is an enjoyable series. Ajin was also surprisingly good. You might as well judge them for yourself.  read more 

Humans with Unique Abilities: Both series feature protagonists who acquire unique, otherworldly abilities. Kafka in Kaiju No. 8 becomes a human-Kaiju hybrid, while Kei in Ajin is an immortal with regeneration and the ability to summon Black Ghosts. Societal Outcasts: Due to their unusual abilities, both protagonists find themselves ostracized and hunted by government agencies. Moral Dilemmas: Both series explore the ethical implications of possessing extraordinary powers. Kafka grapples with the balance between protecting humanity and his own desires, while Kei questions the meaning of life and his role in the world. Action and Suspense: Both anime offer thrilling action sequences and suspenseful plotlines as the protagonists fight for their survival and uncover hidden truths.  read more
