Both stories trace the memories of a cute and charismatic female. Omoide Emanon looks into the past while YKK ponders time's end. If you enjoyed YKK's understated artstyle and gentle pacing, you'll find similar enjoyment in Emanon. 

Both feature gorgeous girls as the protagonists Their beauty is so magnificent that men fall in love easily with them Both protagonists are immortal and are reborn many times 

Even though both of these manga differ a lot from each other in many ways, they share two main similarities that make placing a recommendation link between them worth. The first one of them is their visuals. Both manga offer stunning, detailed and realistic art style with brilliant panelling. The other one is mature storytelling. 

while Omoide Emanon doesnt share many similarities to Nausicaa in terms of plot, i find Emanon and Nausicaa to be similar as characters. both Emanon and Nausicaa have a sort of connection with the planet in which they inhabit. Nausicaa has her intuition that seems to be almost like telepathy between her and the state of the world, and Emanon has a first hand photographic memory that goes all the way back to when life first appeared on earth. aside from the MC's the art style is rather similar. the moment i first picked this up Kenji's style reminded me alot of Miyazaki. Emanon also has two sequel/prequel volumes called "Sasuri Emanon" and "Sasuri Emanon Episode 1" all three stories are separate mini stories about Emanon and Sasuri is illustrated in beautiful watercolors ; very reminiscent of Miyazaki. its a good short read with a pretty simple plot that has a pinch of scifi aspects that will leave you wanting more. i just wish Tsuruta Kenji would make his own full story out of it! read more 

Immortal memory. Omoide Emanon and Frieren at the Funeral both follow individuals who outlive the mortals they reside with, quite a lifestyle has been shown in both manga to be slightly depressing as such a preternatural being. Omoide Emanon does this with the mind, as Emanon's memories go back to when life began. Frieren at the Funeral does this with Frieren simply living as a regular immortal being would. Both are quite depressing manga, though they do have their light moments to spare for the audience. Would recommend both. 

Possessing impressive artwork with magnificent backgrounds, they’re both atmospheric and ethereal. The narrative also mostly revolves around the interaction between a normal male human and an otherworldly female creature that tries to deduce the meaning of life, existence, and evolution. 

Nice and have creative and interesting views on life. Both wholesome and have great conclusions. Both have creative methods (3 days of happiness being the ability to take away one's life for money and Omoide emanon with memories dating back 3 billion years ago). Both have nice art and both include wholesome romance and you feel happy but yet sad at the ending. a perfect sensation while reading both 

same vibe, feeling of emptiness when it ends 

Much like a Mushishi chapter, Omoide Emanon incorporates a supernatural element into an otherwise mundane world to tell a poignant story about an aspect of what it means to be human. Emanon also shares some similarities with Ginko as a character. Both are forced to live a nomadic lifestyle due to their respective supernatural condition (and for what it's worth, both are heavy smokers). 

Both thought-provoking, and they follow a person who meets someone extremely mysterious and 'omniscent'. 

Fantastical stories with a soft, contemplative side and dark undertones. Talk about human nature. 

both of them deal with girls with mysteries. those girls are quite attractive and dangerous at the same time. the main thing which bounds those series together is the nature of mysteries which are represented as a knowledge or rather an ability to sense and understand something which is most likely won't be accepted by any commoner. the way those stories are told is quite similar too, without any exaggerating, like those things happen on a daily basis. 

Both manga are about immortal beings. Both have a relaxing atmosphere to them. 

Two stories about mysterious women with supernatural abilities. If you like somewhat dramatic yet fascinating science-fiction plots, you can find pleasure in reading both "Moon Child" and "Omoide Emanon". 

The matter of fact presentation of ludicrous concepts gives a strong sense of magical realism. They also share a wistful style of art. 

These are different genres but both deal with very enigmatic mysterious young women and themes of life, death, reincarnation and immortality both stories have a touch of the surreal, so if you like those type of stories try them both. As one review said Seol Hui is not the type of manga ( manhwa ) for everyone, but those who like unusual stories and mysteries will appreciate both. Personally, I think Seol Hui is interesting and not cliched, she seems dumb at first and then you realize it's an act and she is clever. These stories both morph between different types of genres as you read them as well. The art in Seol Hui is not spectacular like the art in Emanon, it's more the themes of the stories that are similar.  read more 

For the leads, as well as the (male?) readers, nothing else matters other than the dazzling heroines of these two. With their worldly experience and intelligence - as well as their beauty - they draw men to them, and even conversations become exciting. Young though they may appear, they moist certainly have an adult allure. Two stories pushed forward by lengthy exchanges that never bore, the titles' similarities are many. And you shouldn't mind this because, even with only black & white images and text, it's understandable why the 2D ladies are so fascinating, for no mere mortal could hope to resist them.
