Both series are from the same author so they somehow have the same feels even though the theme are different Both show are slow and relaxing. And the story moves on the characters's dialogues and behaviour Both have food shoots and people relaxing, it's especially heavy in ACCA ACCA: Plus: - the story is being set in a contemporary world - the art is very colorful and pleasing to the eyes - full adapation - great OSTs Con: - terrible pace, it's running too fast Goyou: Pros: - the background and the colors are beautiful - the pace is perfect, it totally dwells the viewers into the relaxing mood and atmosphere of the story Cons: - the character design might be unappealing for some people - not full adaptation  read more 

These two anime have their stories and design both from a same original author, Natsume Ono. Therefore the character's personality are giving a somehow similar vibe. But the two stories are set in totally different era and world. Saraiya goyou is the Edo, Samurai sort of stories. If you enjoy character that are mysterious, I would definitely recommend this 'Saraiya Goyou' / 'House of Five Leaves' to you. 

Both "ACCA-13" and "Saraiya Goyou" are cool and mature shows in that they feature zero fan-service, zero character tropes and zero anime cliches. The characters from both shows have this aura of composure and levelheadedness that is almost ethereal. Whilst "ACCA-13" is a unique political thriller based in an exotic setting, "Saraiya Goyou" is a Japanese period drama (set in the samurai-era) about two men, forsaken by society, who help each other fight their inner demons and find purpose in life.  

-Both MC's have similar personalities. -Both revolve around the MC traveling to different parts of the world. -Each place they travel to has a different culture, way of thinking and being.  

In ACCA Jean travels to vastly different regions as an inspector for his country. Kino visits different city-state like countries as traveler with her motorad Hermes. Both Of these shows are episodic focusing as much on how people live in these fictional regions as on their main characters  

Both are thought-provoking political dramas (Kado more so) They have a similar "serious" feel about them Character interaction is a big part of what drives their story Main characters are level-headed and good at what they do ACCA-13 has more action, Kado is more discussion 

Both anime features adult-cast with very intricate plot whiling putting an emphasize on character developement. Although they are not similar in theme(one about politics, on about Rakugo), the two shows strikes me as similar in vibes and level of detail. If you appreciate one, you would have an eye for the other as well. 

Behind the peaceful journey, there's a mystery happening  

Baccano has a similar feel of art-style to it, that's only the background art-style though. The character design style for them are totally distinct, but both are very well designed. They both having a very strong music style of itself. Those kind that you would remember the tune after finished watching it.
