Needless to say, the world of KonoSuba and Onigiri takes place inside a game-like world. While the story of KonoSuba is to fight a Demon King in order to get the main character’s - Kazuma Satou – life back, Onigiri is about a group of girls fighting malevolent creatures called the Kamikui to stop them from spreading. Even though the specified goal is clearly different, they share a comical tone in which makes the viewer fall in love with the characters. For the most part, KonoSuba and Onigiri are self-aware.

To protect the world, the characters must work together to defeat the evil that has arisen. “Zettai Bouei Leviathan” and “Onigiri” have some type of unknown force that threatens the planet. Moreover, the characters in these anime are a bit dysfunctional with each other. However, as time goes on, they start to set aside their differences and work together as a team. Not only do these two have similar characteristics, the two shows don’t really take itself too seriously giving that comical feel you’d hope to expect. Also, they’re based off their own games.

Both are anime based on games, Onigiri is however mini series meanwhile Azur Lane is made into full length anime series. Girls are main characters. They both don't only focus on battles but also into character relationships. alsosomefanservicescenes

Both are these series are short in both run time by episode and total episodes, neither surpassing a hour total run time for the entire show, so both require little time investment and are easy to get into and finish. They have very similar tones as they are short comedy series based off games which star characters from the game. Unsurprisingly they are played up comedically in a gag/parody manga style of the characters you can play as/with in the game. If you enjoyed one of these series I'm almost certain you'll enjoy the other whether you played the game or not.

These are both short series promoting their respective games. They both take little time investment and are great fan service for people who play the games. They are both also worth giving a shot if you've heard of either game as it may give you the push you need to finally try it if you enjoy the series.
