COMMENTS FOR PET

Rob7 says:

Kokkoku and Pet was made by the same Studio Geno based on mangas from different authors, but when you watch it the similarities of the narrative are so strong that you may guess the Studio has chosen these works based on this to keep a style.

- Supernatural
- Thriller narrative

Both are sfish dramas with hyper tension and fast storyboard

COMMENTS FOR STEINS;GATE

drwatchon says:

A must-see for all time-traveling enthusiasts. Steins;Gate explores the multitude of possibilities in the course of time as it unforlds (from a point in the past onwards) while Kokkoku is about entering a co-called stasis, a frozen frame, a single moment in time where some have the "power" to interact while the rest of the world around them is like an unmovable picture. S;G starts off really slowly but at some point BAM! it hits you strong and accelerates. Kokkoku is going fast (oh the irony!) from sec one. There's lots of violence in both cases, if you have a weak stomach better avoid them during lunch time.

Rating: 78.17/100

COMMENTS FOR PARANOIA AGENT

ButadonMeitantei says:

From the more realism-lenient art style and chaotic opening, to the many questions posed by their concepts, both series (at least so far for Kokkoku) carry a very similar atmosphere.

Rating: 76.15/100
Ajin: Demi-Human
Mysterious immortal humans known as "Ajin" first appeared 17 years ago in Africa. Upon their discovery, they were labeled as a threat to mankind, as they might use their powers for evil and were incapable of being destroyed. Since then, whenever an A...

COMMENTS FOR AJIN: DEMI-HUMAN

authenticity says:

Although the animation, plot, and characters are very different, they give off the same vibe. As I was watching Kokkoku, I started thinking of Ajin as soon as I saw the creatures summoned in the world of Stasis.

Rating: 55.07/100
The Lost Village
A bus full of eccentric individuals is headed towards the urban legend known as Nanaki Village, a place where one can supposedly start over and live a perfect life. While many have different ideas of why the village cannot be found on any map, or why...

COMMENTS FOR THE LOST VILLAGE

Nyrne says:

Both are psychological/mystery Seinen.
The shows take place in a kind of alternative universe out of time.
The characters are confronted with fantastic/paranormal elements.
The animation quality is mediocre in both shows and the designs are similar.

Rating: 67.75/100
Occultic;Nine
The "paranormal science" story follows nine idiosyncratic individuals, linked by the "Choujou Kagaku Kirikiri Basara" occult summary blog run by 17-year-old second-year high school student Yuuta Gamon. Little incongruities that occur around these nin...

COMMENTS FOR OCCULTIC;NINE

Lemon says:

- Very large and diverse cast
- Winding story
- Funky music
- Superpowers and mystery
- Lots of death and blood
- Tense atmosphere

The art in Occultic;Boob is nicer but the artists behind Kokkoku has a better understanding of female anatomy. Both shows also share similar short-comings but if you were able to enjoy one, give the other a try.

Rating: 76.74/100
Inuyashiki: Last Hero
Inuyashiki Ichirou is down on his luck. While only 58 years old, his geriatric looks often have him written off as a pathetic old man by the world around him and he's constantly ignored and disrespected by his family despite all that he's done to sup...
Read more

COMMENTS FOR INUYASHIKI: LAST HERO

Lemon says:

Where one of the main characters is an elderly man with superpowers. Also similar atmosphere, gory themes with lots of violence and action.

Not many shows around with elderly people (60+ or at least looking 60+) as protagonists but that doesn't necessarily the ones that are around are any good...

Rating: 74.34/100
Ghost Hound
In an isolated region of Kyushu lies the town of Suiten. Though seeming small and modest, Suiten is not a picturesque place for a vacation, unless it is from the "Unseen World." Taro, Makoto, and Masayuki, three boys with traumatic pasts, learn to le...

COMMENTS FOR GHOST HOUND

Lemon says:

- Small town mystery feel
- Jazzy music that doesn't quite fit but the contrast in turn makes it good
- Superpowers with a history (backed by powerful pseudoscience)
- Mysterious cult

The cast of Ghost Hound is on average younger than Kokkoku but the chars in Kokkoku aren't exactly very well written adults so there's v little practical difference.

Rating: 83.72/100
Gintama Season 4
Gintoki, Shinpachi, and Kagura return as the fun-loving but broke members of the Yorozuya team! Living in an alternate-reality Edo, where swords are prohibited and alien overlords have conquered Japan, they try to thrive on doing whatever work they c...

COMMENTS FOR GINTAMA SEASON 4

Dewelleric says:

Ok, not a perfect recommendation, but listen up. The first two episodes of Gintama's fourth season use a similar premise to Kokkoku. In both, the main characters find themselves in a world frozen in time where they are able to roam freely while everyone else is motionless.

Rating: 71.10/100
Boogiepop and Others
Hushed exchanges among the female student populace of Shinyo Academy center around an enigmatic supernatural entity. This entity is Boogiepop, a Shinigami who is rumored to murder people at the height of their beauty before their allure wanes. Few kn...

COMMENTS FOR BOOGIEPOP AND OTHERS

ButadonMeitantei says:

Both have a similar vibe and atmosphere. Great soundtracks, different perspectives from different characters, and the past is unravelled for each show as they go on.

Rating: 84.08/100
Parasyte -the maxim-
All of a sudden, they arrived: parasitic aliens that descended upon Earth and quickly infiltrated humanity by burrowing into the brains of vulnerable targets. These insatiable beings acquire full control of their host and are able to morph into a var...

COMMENTS FOR PARASYTE -THE MAXIM-

Wotakunai says:

Being in the world of parasytes and being in the world statis draws similar feelings of isolation and dread.

Art: The dark grungy atmosphere and presentation of the animation are almost the same.
Sound: Both have amazing opening themes that are inspired of metal rock and electronic disco.
