Both are samurai dramas with similarly dark but beautiful art. House of Five Leaves is much more of a slice of life drama, with hardly any action in it. Sword of the Stranger has a ton of action. But they somehow both feel very comparable. The feel of the rustic buildings, the leaves falling from the trees as two swordsmen stare each other down, it feels like the characters could bump into each other at any time. If you are a fan of samurai anime in general, neither of these should be missed. They are both masters at what they do.
