These two series feature quite a lot of violence and bloodshed. That is quite obvious from the first few episodes of each. However, the main similarity has to do with character.
The main female character in both series has two sides. The first being easygoing/happy/cute, and the other being a murderer/assailant highly skilled in combat. There are more differences between the two character "sides" in Elfen Lied, as they are more extreme. However, both are highly similar.
The tone in both series can be connected as well, although Blood C isn't immediately similar to Elfen Lied. The two contain militaristic themes, and the overarching plot delves into

Both have interesting plot, likeable characters and impeccable drama.
Ok, I lied but they both have blood, gracious amounts of fan service and dense lead characters. The best thing about both series is the opening song and I guess Blood-C is a pretty looking show.

In my opinion these two animes have a lot of similarities in the MC as well as in the story. A MC who goes between being a ditsy, child-like, innocent girl to a killing machine due to whatever circumstances & when that side of her is shown expect plenty of blood spill & limbs to be severed. Both plots involve the MCs past, betrayal, & "monsters". In both I would wait an entire episode just for the action to come & when it did it was totally worth it. So, to sum it all up,
-MC with two personalities (Killer/innocent girl)
-Every fight ends in a bloodbath
-Plot

The things interesting in both series are the fights and gore.
Both plots could have been so much better, but in some way, they're enjoyable.
I recommend both only if you like bloody scenes.
If you like the gore and the horror from Elfen Lied, Blood-C is the perfect choice ;) The movie is also good!

These are both 12 episode long anime that are full of blood, gore, and secrets. While these two anime are not the same, they have a similar type of story. The main character of Blood-C, Saya, is also similar to Lucy in Elfen Lied. Neither of these anime are for people with a weak stomach (They are among the goriest anime I've seen), but they are both good anime for horror fans.
both are gory
