Quanzhi Gaoshou

These feature skilled gamers in fantasy MMORPG settings. Though the plots differ considerably, there's no shortage of similarities in other regards such as the engaging action sequences, the very skilled and confident protagonists, and the cute female companions. 

Similarities: -Similar Smart Gamer MC's. -Cunning, strategic, and a bit of a troll. -Both have gaming aspects. Differences: -LH focuses on in-game politics and world building -QZGS does not have the "trapped in a virtual game" aspect so it's "politics" are purely RL ones, mostly due to the competitive spirit of other gaming clubs. -LH is Japanese while QZGS is Chinese. -The art is very different. One is more 2D, the other has CGI and looks more like something from Fate Stay verse.  

The MCs are really overpowered but were left out. Quanzhi Gaoshou MC was thrown out of team and Overlord MC got stuck alone in world.  

Badass main character who's can be a prideful prick? Check. Modern and Good Art? Check. Action-packed fighting by main character who is a legend, but also "flawed"? Check. Both MKnRand QZGS are fantasy/magic type animes that don't try to reinvent the wheel, but still remains refreshing and intriguing. While they are sort of directed to different audiences, both elicit either a love/hate response. The side characters are surprisingly memorable and different too. QZGS's beauty is the character development and unique stories while MKnR is all about "imperfection" not being an excuse for being OP, hence the huge class divider. Bonus: Both have great OP/EDs too! BonusBonus/Sidenote: I'm not sure if this is unique, or a pro/con but McD's surely milked the opportunity to advertise on QZGS. Also, QZGS has a unique, but fairly balanced mix of CGI/3D/normal animation. Both are definitely not meant for everyone.*** read more 

If you're looking for a good Chinese anime, you must give Zhen Hun Jie (Rakshasa Street) a try. Although the quality of the animation of rakshasa street is not comparable to Quan Zhi Gao Shou, it made up for it with its interesting plot and characters. The way the anime was directed is also interesting in the sense that two different timelines are being explored at once (instead of the typical flashback used in Japanese anime) and tie-in together nicely towards the end which made some of the revelations very satisfying. For example, the first episode is about the current timeline then second episode switches to the past timeline and the third episode is back to present time again, etc. Not to mention, it has the best OST and songs that I've heard in Chinese anime. The length of the episode is pretty short, roughly about 12-15 mins except for the first and last episode which are 20+ minutes.  read more 

Games. OP MC that wins everything. The MC also gets accusations about cheating/hate because they are too good. 

the MC team is overpowered, and often takes their time or doesn't really go serious for most opponents. The main difference is that Quan Zhi Goa SHou is in a game, and Nanatsu no Taizai is not, but the action of both is very entertaining 

Tanya is young soldier who battles for Germans in WW. The nations war is similar with guilds. Tanya is apathetic equally as Quanzhi Gaoshou MC. 

It gets you into the mode of online gaming. Online gamers can relate. 

Both these anime are maid by the same company and have a similar feel to them. The animation is bright and fluid in both and the high amounts of action keeps you engaged. While one is about a fantasy world and the other is about a fantasy game i still think that if you like one you should also enjoy the other. 

Both are Chinese anime with fantasy, magic and fighting scenes; MCs are OP with unique skills (magic in Quanzhi Fashi, mental and gaming abilities in Quanzhi Gaoshou). Both MCs are hiding something: as for the MC from Quanzhi Gaoshou, it's his true identity, while MC from Quanzhi Gaoshou it's his double magic ability. They're very fond and protective to people close to them (Su Mucheng in Quanzhi Gaoshou and Xin Xia in Quanzhi Fashi). 

They are both action-packed and focus on battles between characters with various abilities. While Quanzhi Gaoshou involve game characters with different classes and skillset, The Outcast involve characters with different supernatural abilities. They both feature an amazing ensemble cast where the MC is surround by competent and charismatic supporting characters with unique personalities and backstories. 

They both have with someone playing an MMORPG game from the beginning with op skills at gaming. The worlds give off similar vibes although Quanzhi Gaoshou is more focused on esports  

The King's Avatar (Quan Zhi Gao Shou) centers on Ye Xiu, a top-tier esports player who is forced out of his professional team but decides to reclaim his position using his extensive knowledge and skills in the game Glory. Similar to Throne of Seal, this series highlights the protagonist's journey to achieve excellence and mastery in their respective fields. Although it blends fantasy with the modern world of esports, the intense strategic battles, character development, and themes of perseverance and redemption resonate with the epic quests and martial arts mastery seen in Throne of Seal. The King’s Avatar combines thrilling action with a deep dive into the gaming culture, appealing to those who enjoy stories of underdog triumphs and personal growth. read more 

Similarities - Both MCs are professional gamers - Both MCs are strategic prodigies - Both series are Chinese - Both MCs treat their lives as games* - Both MCs are legends in their respective worlds Differences - Wo Shi S2 is an isekai VS. Kings avatar is a game - Wo Shi is a 3D donghua VS. Kings avatar is a 2D donghua - Wo Shi is a cultivation based storyline - Wo Shi MC uses underhanded tactics to beat his opponents VS. Kings avatar uses godly combos - Wo Shi S2 MC specifically uses a computer set up to beat his opponents  

Well, at first glance this recommendation seems a little strange but it is not as farfetched as it might seems. First of all in both anime special attention is given to the character and development, based on the personal life stories. "Netojuu no Susume" does appear a little more Ladylike due to a female main character and involving a lot of emotions. However, in both anime the game play is not focused, but on the other hand the characterization based on interaction and the ongoing plot is done pretty well, without being too predictable. To me these shows appear like representing two sides of the same coin. Both take look at the benefits and disadvantages of online games, on the one hand a pro-player who starts struggling his way back to the top and on the other hand a woman trying to re-discover the feeling for the beauty of life. I enjoyed both shows.  read more 

Similar settings, very similar MC's. Over powered main MC. Too good for everyone else.  

The MCs are gamers. They have their own place to play games. They know each other in real life so they formed a club. 

Both involve players playing Multiplayer RPG kind of games where they are uber powerful. In one game he is sacked from that game and must start anew and the other the game ends and he must start a new game. Both focus a lot on the player's "real" life... 

The Ye Xiu the MC of QZGH has very much the same appeal as Yang Wenli from LotGH but boosted by Reinhard's snark. If you are someone who believes QZGS or LotGH is the epitome of """maturity""" and appreciate the super-ultra-extremely-peerlessly smart tactics of """real""" adults, with their """subtle""" interactions then I think you will be sure to enjoy the other. Other points: - Both are more or less sausage fest shows with a few stereotypical token females. Though they get more screen time in QZGS - Yang/Ye both have the magical ability to scout out skillful people quicker than you can say 'contrived'. - Tactics, teamwork, and whatnot. Plenty of screen time dedicated to people praising the actions of the protagonist because god forbid you fail to appreciate how super-ultra-extremely-peerlessly skilled these people are. read more 

Chinese anime about a group of people playing a massively popular multiplayer online game. Unlike most video game inspired anime, these also focus on regular life of the players, not just in-game stuff. 

If you like adrenaline pumping fight scenes in Quanzhi Gaoshou, you might like to try Zhen Dao Ge. Both are from different setting. QG in modern MMORPG world and ZDG in classic China martial arts world.  

A fallen career professional fights his way back to the top. Yuri on Ice is about a pro figure skater and Quan Zhi Gao Shou is about a pro gamer. Both are adults nearing the end of their professional life in their discipline and are looking for a way to find revive their career. Stylistically and presentation wise they're very different; but both are very ambitious with complex choreography and action, and the resulting CG is just as ugly whether it's made in China or made in Japan. Both leaves you with an uneasy feeling of incompleteness. Regardless of my criticisms, if you liked one for the profession-starting-again theme give the other a try. read more 

- Both are sports stories, that tackles the life of pros, the dreams and efforts that goes into professional sports. Differences: - Ping pong is fast and concise, QZGS requires a long prep time but contains far larger scope. - Art style and action  

The feeling is similar. Both Sei and Ye Xiu are really passionate about games and battles. And you can feel their enjoyment of the game. There are slight differences Sei is younger and is now fighting in a tournament to become the strongest, while Ye Xiu is already a veteran winner of tournaments, player no. 1 in the game and already an adult. Both series show the life of the players in and outside the game and their relationships. Good humor also.  

If "Protocol: Rain" caught your interest with its contemporary take on esports within a slice-of-life and the power of "friendship" framework, then "Quanzhi Gaoshou" might be your next go-to anime. While it doesn't focus on slice-of-life, the power of friendship and such, it excels in picturing the big and strategic world of professional esport teams, with more immersive details, combined with top-notch animation and deeper character development. It's a great follow-up to a more action-packed look at esports. 

Both are about the Mc's who are deep into the "gaming world" sh**. There was no cure for this, ah!  

Two series that focus on the world of their titles and their leading characters survive the hiccups that appear before them. Both series don't use an "arc" based formula that many manga and anime do but instead have multiple plots intertwined together to create a more complex narrative, that isn't always apparent but still compelling.
