Sugar Dark: Umerareta Yami to Shoujo
|
These two have a similar style of plot and development. Sugar Dark almost reads like an arc of Pumpkin Scissors, with a mystery that serves as the background and setting for the characters' growth. Sugar Dark has stronger fantasy elements, more gory horror, and a conclusion. Pumpkin Scissors has a larger and more diverse cast, less idealistic hope, and explores more themes.

Kure-nai

A young man is shaped by the people around him. Super powered silliness (ala kung-fu cinema)! Conspiracy! Mystery! The tragedy of love! Slice of life. Kure-nai is more serious in tone. Futakoi is more extreme in every way.

Magical realism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magical_realism) used to talk about human nature. Surprising depths of theme. Modern treatment of traditional memes.

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

Michiko to Hatchin

Both are silly without loosing the ability to deliver a dramatic message. Both use a linear narrative to tell a coherent story. Both have a strong ensemble cast. Both use quirky characters within a group dynamic to drive the story forward. Both are top notch entertainment where every episode is worth watching. Bebop's episodic nature makes it a better standalone series and allows it to play more freely with genres and styles. Michiiko's more continuous narrative allows for better character growth which builds deeper attachments to the various characters.
