Beastars

both series' are supposed to be a commentary on society. Beastars uses animals to communicate discrimination by using things like herbivores and carnivores. Pluto uses robots and humans to do this and utilises stuff like mechanical and biological things. Both showcase discrimnation and unjust in society. Both are a reimagining of the current world but they both substitute it with other things but essentially the problems in beastars and pluto are evident in the real world too!

Both have religiously important characters such as greek gods. Both have good fight choreography and focus on battles rather than plot (record of ragnarok still has a good plot but is more focused on characters). Imo record of ragnarok is the superior series as its plot is more coherent and doesn't rely on asspulls. If you semi enjoyed goh then you would love record of ragnarok. Both have a likeable cast

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

While they tackle different audiences, i say they are both fantastic in their narratives and characters. FMAB and Monster also have extensive lore and history (monster set in the 80s and the lore of germany) while FMAB has immense lore and a great narrative that ties it all together. Both have fantastic antagonists and deuteragonists (grimmer, truth, father, roy mustang, lunge etc). Both protaganists go through hard decisions and have to be forced to make decisions. Both can be interpreted to be a 'hyporcrite'. Great writing in both and great uses of religious symbolism are present in both. Great OSTs and music for both as well and they both have good enough animation (keep in mind, monster was made in 2006 but still has clean animation, dont expect some demon slayer animation) FMAB has gorgeous animation despite being made in 2009.

Both tackle themes of isolation and the inability of 'fitting in'. Aku no hana tackles abnormality and repeatedly reinforces the thought provoking question. What is being normal? No Longer Human similarly tackles abnormality but the main character has no intention of 'fitting in' and his character is more similar to the other main character in Aku No Hana: Nakamura. While his crisis is more sad and depressing the main character Yozo Oba has perfect characterization and in my opinion has the best portrayal of a 'tragic' character. They both also are full to the brim of symbolism. Aku no hana uses ironically the aku no hana (a flower of evil) and No Longer Human uses a doll as its main symbolic feature. Both are in my top 2. and both have great character conclusions. (aku no hana's conclusion might seem abrupt but i say search for analysis' on it so u can fully understand it)
