Boku dake ga Inai Machi

Boku dake ga Inai Machi involves a main male character who is working things out mostly by himself and solving a mystery. It is suspenseful and psychological.
Gosick is similar in the aspect that there is a main male character, and there are many mysteries to be solved, although the main character does not do it alone.
Time is a key element in both shows, and flashbacks and other imaginings are common in Gosick.
Some female characters show resemblance in both shows, and one of the only major differences is the time setting.
Both anime are fairly well done mysteries that force the viewers to really think and consider the individual characters' situations. While the mystery in Erased was more obvious than most given the small cast of characters, the mysteries in Gosick are not as obvious on the surface and are more involved and unexpected. So, if you were either unsatisfied with the mystery in Erased or are looking for another, then Gosick is your best bet.
Someone died, who should investigate? A small girl? A man in a boys body? Sounds good to me.
Erased is about a man trying to fix his past, save the lives of three girls, and his mother.All the while he does so in his younger self's body. You would think that this would make things more difficult, you might also think that this concept makes little sense.... Well you might be right, because his ability to travel back in time is never really explained.
However, it is still a good anime, with a bittersweet ending, and some amazing music.

Solving the mystery. Although the stories differ quite a bit, Victorique and Satoru are similar in that they both perform some detective work to solve a mystery.
With Gosick being a grey historical mystery, in which multiple mysteries are at play, Erased is a dark murder mystery with a key goal of finding the serial killer.
