Ajin

If you liked Tokyo Ghoul’s chaotic prompt to have the protagonist find out they are a deviant species, you will certainly like Ajin. They both have intricate systems of how their supernatural beings work which is enjoyable if you like gore (and biology, of course.) Additionally, they both dwell deeply in psychological and sociological themes—specifically if it is alright to sacrifice a minority for the sake of the whole. Character-wise, unlike melodramatic Kaneki Ken, Nagai Kei is an extremely pragmatic and detached character. Though scared at first, Nagai never lets his emotions cloud his judgment and comes up with outstanding strategies unlike Kaneki who often lashes out (Centipede? Dragon?) Both are also extremely overpowered compared to others of their kin. Another thing worth pointing out is the art. Personally, I find TG’s art to be quite unmemorable compared to its sequel TGre: (read it, for art’s sake). Though TG’s art could deliver its impact at certain points, it falls short in comparison to Ajin’s art where there is a cathartic moment in every other chapter (really.)

Blood. Limbs and guts scattered. Oh my, your hands would probably get sweaty as you see squads of underdogs fighting against the odds in order to not get slaughtered. These series are both set in medieval times with strong political and military themes. Also, the two have supernatural mysteries that add more to the lore of their worlds. Overall, Berserk and Shingeki no Kyojin are two thrilling, intense series.

B: The Beginning

Though B's color scheme and characters look more mellow than Psycho-Pass, both present brutal murders, and main antagonists that stand in a rather gray area. Lily reminds me a lot of Akane since they are both enthusiastic about being cops and doing the right thing. Likewise, Keith resembles Kougami a lot in how their sanity got compromised in the line of duty. Personally, it is exciting to see a similar dynamic to Akane and Kougami in Lily and Keith. However, though you could say characters in B have parallels in Psycho-Pass, the way they interact in B is quite refreshing. Plus, humor is more present in this one which honestly helps. Overall, I believe B is a good watch for anyone who enjoyed Psycho-Pass.
