Both of these animes have strong themes of "coming-of-age" struggles. The characters often process scenarios in ways that are typical during teenage years but may at first seem "over-simplified" as an adult. Both have very colorful, unique art styles, story structures and the characters work through these complex emotions through the allegory of fighting strange monsters. For these reasons, I feel that watching these shows with an open mind is needed. The confusing nature of theirs struggles seems to reflect how confusing life can be growing up as a young teen. and the character simplicity often fits with their developmental stage. It might be easier to relate with if you are currently the age of these main characters or can easily remember what it was like to go through massive changes during this time of your life.
