Ultimo kinda reminds me of Steins;Gate because it too has a time travel story. Ultimo however is more about action and androids where Steins;Gate has a more "realistic" feel. 

both of these series have a duo that goes through the quest of discovering "what is good/rightousness and what is evil/wicked" very different in asthetics, one is mecha scifi with japanese historical asthetics. while one is in south africa with heavy metal asthetics, both of them fight many others deemed evil/good, while diasporaiser is the protagonist as wicked/evil while in ultimo the protagonist represents the good/rightous of course both series raises the questions of subjective morality and impartiality etc 

Both have similar art and both have excellent action scene if you like one you might like they other one 

Same mangaka, so similar art. Shounen stories about mechanized boys who awake after a long sleep, and fight evil and protect goodness. 

Both Takei works,and both have a similar design robots(called Jumbor in Jumbor[d'oh]and Karakuridoujis in Ultimo[double d'oh])and similar tranformation of parts of the body to weapons.And made by a mad scientist(Dr. Occult in Jumbor,Dunstan[Lee] in Ultimo. 

Same author. Same art style too, needless to say. Also both relates to humans partnering up. In Ultimo, it's human-dolls like robots. In Shaman King, it's ghosts.  

Stan Lee helms the concept in these two series, and you can certainly feel his influence as you read them.
