Aku no Hana

Super-slow paced shows with an ominous atmosphere. They both have rather unique animation style and have that same feeling to them. Artsy anime, basically.
Very similar "empty" atmosphere. Realistic character designs and each episode has little action or talking. Also very slow paced shows.

The pacing within both series is slow and methodical, backed by an emphasis on emptiness and confusion. The unique art style contributes to the way in which the story is told. For example, Aku no Hana's visuals could be considered 'ugly' but, the characters within the story view the world as ugly. I feel this ties together and creates an interesting atmosphere.
