Anime: Code Geass: Boukoku no Akito 1 - Yokuryuu wa Maiorita

Code Geass: Boukoku no Akito 1 - Yokuryuu wa Maiorita addpermalink

86 is basically a copy of Code Geass Boukoku no Akito: of course, they changed a few things but still have the same taste and feels alike, the same cliche of a Japanese male that goes mad rampage inside a robotic unit and the same main female heroine in the military with similar rank and attitude, Vladilena Milizena (Lena in short) is a copy-paste of Lila Malcal, are a few differences of course but is the same plot in essence just fighting a different enemy, but the main characters are the same with names changed, they just changed how the Japanese are called from Elevens to 86s; then if you liked 86 go and watch Akito because without a single doubtn86 is not 100% is a thousand percent inspired in Cade Geass Boukoku no Akito, then not too much originality I believe but I love Code Geass then i don't mind to have a copy cat read more

Aldnoah.Zero Part 2 addpermalink

Both shows are have Drama, Action, and Mechs
Both shows are focused on the cruelty and unfairness of war
Both shows are emotionally impactful
Both shows share the same critical failure area (they roll-back significant plot developments in order to force the show in a certain direction)

Anime: Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season Part 2

Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season Part 2 addpermalink

If you like AoT, you might like 86 too. It has quite similar themes, but it's a bit different in its presentation, and it has very likable characters. Attack on Titan has been going on for years and is now finally about to reach its conclusion. The story build up over the years and mysteries slowly opening up with the main characters struggling has created a lot of hype meanwhile 86 has just started its story with season 1 and season 2 yet to come.

Aldnoah.Zero addpermalink

Quiet and generally reserved male protagonists in Inaho/Shin
Initially Naïve yet strong-willed female protagonists in Seylum/Lena
Both have mechs.
Both have children being thrust into the frontlines of a war.
Both have an OST by Hiroyuki Sawano with some FIRE singles in aLIEz & The Answer

IMO 86 Part 1 and 2 are the stronger show, but Cour 1 of Aldnoah Zero really brought its A game for an Anime-Only.

Shingeki no Kyojin addpermalink

First of all, Shinei and Levi(from Shingeki No Kyojin) are both very similar characters who are really good on the battlefield and both have also lost many of their close comrades in battle
The story of the Eighty-Six is based on a group of people who fight outside an enclosed area.I can also relate the legion to titans where the 86 are meant to stop them from reaching the enclosed area and the same with titans as the survey corps are meant to stop them from reaching the enclosed area

Anime: Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season

Shingeki no Kyojin: The Final Season addpermalink

A very sad storyline of oppression and war against a nigh unbeatable enemy. There is a lot about sympathizing with those who oppressed you, as well as the possibility of the end of humanity. Many sad deaths and the horrors of war.

Charlotte addpermalink

Both shows' main selling points are their focus on painful, powerful emotional impact that progresses through the shows.
Both shows have impressive, consistent production quality throughout.
Both shows have drama and action.
Both shows have one critical failure area that stops the show from being as great as it is capable of being. In the case of Charlotte, the failure is pacing. In the case of 86, the failure is extremely unrealistic, forced plot developments in order to make the show "happier")

Classroom☆Crisis addpermalink

- Male MC are cool, calm & calculating
- Female MC is persistent, strong & very much in love with the Male MC
- Male MC appears to be cold but in reality wants to be helped 
- Female MC wants to save the Male MC while everyone else doubts him
- Best friend of Female MC has a connection with the Male MC
- A group of tech savvy people closest to the MC(in the case of 86 they are with the Male MC & in Classroom Crisis its the Female MC)
- Lots of internal feuds & hatred towards the MC's little tech savvy group from the company/state that controls them whereas the other MC is at a high position in that company/state & tries to save them
- Mecha/Robot theme as a major part in the story & similar songs & soundtracks
They have to be 2 of my favorite series because of the way the relation between the Male & Female MC & their characters in general are very much to my liking(especially the Male MC) read more

Just like in 86, the characters thrive in a world at war, friends become enemies, the battles are epic, the OST is awesome too.
