If you liked D.Gray-man add

...then you might like Kuroshitsuji add

While Kuroshitsuji is VERY different compared to D.Gray-man in terms of story, art style, characters, length, the environments and tone are very similar. The setting is the exact same, and the comedy is pretty similar in both. While D.Gray-man and Kuroshitsuji aren’t a perfect recommendation, they do have some similarities that are worth sharing, and watch both as well!

If you liked D.Gray-man add

...then you might like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood add

D.Gray-man and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood have quite a bit of differences, but there’s some things in common. The art style is similar between the two. Both anime have a dark story mixed in with lighthearted comedy (much more so in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood). The main protagonists, Edward Elric and Allen Walker, both have a cursed arm as well. Both are really good and worth checking out.

If you liked Chrno Crusade add

...then you might like D.Gray-man add

While not the exact same, there are some similarities between Chrno Crusade and D.Gray-man. Both have a similar dark atmosphere that is lightened up with some comedy, and both anime have religious undertones and a similar art style as well. Not to mention that Chrono and Allen Walker have similar kind personalities as well! Both are worth watching, but Chrono Crusade is a bit better.

If you liked Chrno Crusade add

...then you might like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood add

Chrno Crusade and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood both revolve around two blonde siblings trying to make everything right again. The story in both are dark, but have humor to lighten things up. The characters are similar as well, with Alphonse being similar to Chrono and Edward to Rosette. Both are pretty good!

If you liked Hellsing Ultimate add

...then you might like Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage add

Hellsing Ultimate and Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage are both over the top and very violent seinen anime. Both anime, more so Hellsing than Black Lagoon, don’t hold back on the violence, and are pretty dark. Both were animated by Madhouse as well, and have a similar art style. Watch S1 of Black Lagoon first, and this recommendation also applies to Roberta’s Blood Trail.

If you liked Hellsing Ultimate add

...then you might like D.Gray-man add

Fighting against the supernatural is the main theme of both Hellsing Ultimate and D.Gray-man. Both have a similar dark atmosphere, and the setting is pretty similar. In Hellsing Ultimate, Alucard fights against vampires and ghouls, while in D.Gray-man, Allen Walker fights against the akuma. Both also have some humor as well to lighten the mood. Hellsing Ultimate is a seinen, unlike D.Gray-man (which is a shounen), and as a result, is much darker and way more violent, so keep that in mind. Both anime are worth watching, so check them out!

If you liked D.Gray-man add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen add

The main protagonists in D.Gray-man and Jujutsu Kaisen (TV) are cursed, with Allen from D.Gray-man having a messed up arm and Yuji from Jujutsu Kaisen (TV) having a demon inside him. Both anime have a darker tone than most battle shounen anime, and both involve exorcists and demons, with D.Gray-man having Akuma and Jujutsu Kaisen (TV) having Curses. Both are worth a watch for sure.

If you liked Black Cat add

...then you might like Bungou Stray Dogs add

Black Cat and Bungou Stray Dogs don't have the most similar story. In fact, the storylines are very different. But the tone, atmosphere and some of the characters are pretty similar. Both manga have a mix of serious and funny moments (Black Cat has a bit more comedy compared to Bungou Stray Dogs, but this is probably due to the former being a shounen and the latter being a seinen), and the dynamic between Train and Sven is very similar to the dynamic between Dazai and Kunikida, except Train is a lot less suicidal. While both are different, there are still some similarities between the two, and I believe that fans of one will also like the other!

If you liked Made in Abyss add

...then you might like Yakusoku no Neverland add

While the style of presentation and storylines are very different, Made in Abyss and Yakusoku no Neverland have a very similar atmosphere. The main protagonists are also alike, and both anime have a cutesy art style that makes the dark moments even more horrifying. Have fun...

If you liked Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen add

While the storyline and tone are very different, Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu and Jujutsu Kaisen (TV) both have the main protagonist go through a big change. The art styles are slightly alike due to a shared character designer as well. Both have great animation and music as well!

If you liked Cowboy Bebop add

...then you might like Jormungand add

Cowboy Bebop and Jormungand, while they don't have a similar setting or storyline, have the same air of realism. Both anime begin episodic, but bigger storylines later appear near the end. Both have really good fights involving guns as well. Check them both out!

If you liked Dogs: Bullets & Carnage add

...then you might like Jormungand add

Dogs: Bullets & Carnage and Jormungand might have very different storylines, but the style of both anime are very similar. Expect a lot of gunfights and a good storyline that's mostly episodic. Badou is somewhat similar to Koko as well in personality. Have fun watching!

If you liked JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (TV) add

...then you might like Bungou Stray Dogs add

JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (TV) and Bungou Stray Dogs are very different anime series, but they both have one thing in common: name references. JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (TV) references music, while Bungou Stray Dogs references literature. If these sorts of naming conventions interest you, check out both of these anime.

If you liked Black Lagoon add

...then you might like Jormungand add

Black Lagoon is very similar to Jormungand. Aside from them both having a similar episode set-up, they are both realistic seinen anime while still being over the top (Jormungand is less over the top than Black Lagoon) with a ton of gunfights. The art style and some characters are very similar as well. If you want a dark and serous anime with guns, watch these two anime!

If you liked Black Lagoon add

...then you might like Dogs: Bullets & Carnage add

Black Lagoon and Dogs: Bullets & Carnage both have a very similar feeling and art style. Both have a ton of gun fights and insane characters such as Revy and Badou. The tone is similar in both as well. Black Lagoon is much better, but fans might want to check out Dogs: Bullets & Carnage as well due to the amount of similarities.

If you liked Elfen Lied add

...then you might like Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu add

Elfen Lied and Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu both focus on a new type of species that is being hunted down by humans. There is a lot of gore and messed up stuff going on in both anime. Both anime are quite tragic as well. If you are looking for a tragic anime with some good content, check these out.

If you liked Toradora! add

...then you might like Amagi Brilliant Park add

Toradora! and Amagi Brilliant Park are both lighthearted anime with quite a bit of funny comedy. Toradora! gets a bit more serious later on, but the atmosphere and comedy is very similar between the two. The main characters of both anime, Ryuuji and Taiga in Toradora! and Kanye and Sento in Amagi Brilliant Park, have a similar dynamic as well. Check them both out!
