RELATED ANIMES
COMMENTS FOR AMNESIA
These animes are both reverse harem, otome game adapted animes with relatively dull and lifeless heroines. The males in the series are full of colour and the series tends to focus on them as they're "attractive" selling points. While both are relatively dark series due to the setting and premise, Amnesia is a little more romantic in terms that not all the potential suitors are selfish jerks preying on the heroine. However, Diabolik Lovers has far more "fanservice", if you can stomach the abusive content. Both are mostly made for fans rather than the content.
Do you like terrible adaptations of otome games, utterly useless heroines, and a harem cast of douchebags? Then you're in the right place if you watch either of these two! Though Amnesia's guys are more decent (except for one certain yandere), its heroine who is, amazingly also named Yui, a complete and utter doormat with zero personality. I cannot remember any instance where this girl said anything of substance, or the paltry few words and sounds she's capable of making.
Compare and contrast Yui of Diabolik Lovers, and marvel at the similarities!

COMMENTS FOR VAMPIRE KNIGHT
Both these shoujo anime revolve around vampires and they obsessive love for the same girl. Both female protagonists are surrounded by the blood-thirsty boys and encounter them more than once.
What annoys me about these anime is that the spineless female protagonists can't do anything but be quiet and obey. They don't really stand up against the beautiful vampires and just let them do as they please. That alone gives the anime a certain boring atmosphere, I think.
Still, if you're into romantic vampire stories with a bit of sadism, these two will do just fine.

COMMENTS FOR DANCE WITH DEVILS
Both these anime are actually pretty similar, as both play with the themes of humans and vampires co-existing in each other's worlds. I'd say that when it comes to the MC, the one from Dance is faaaaaar better than the one from Diabolik, who was just dumb as a rock. Anyway, getting to the similarities>
# Female who inadvertently gets caught up in the world of vamps/devils
# MC is a high school student
# Vamps/Devils feel an inexplicable attraction to her, which is later on explained and explored
# Both actually have a plot going on for them, which came as a surprise
# Despite being reverse harems, both have a way darker feel to them
# Lots of pretty boys fighting over the MC.
# MC's parents are absent from both the anime.
# Both anime have a crazy sadist/masochist with purple hair who stands out from the rest of the cast, design wise.

COMMENTS FOR BROTHERS CONFLICT
The main female from both series must live with a new family. She doesn't know what to expect from them. In BroCon, she meets 14 step brothers who are all talented and beautiful. We have a doctor/father-figure, lawyer/home-cook/caretaker, cross-dresser, game developer, hairstylist, Idol, voice actors, pro basketball player, florist/gardener, Monk/hostess, a student who goes to the same school as the heroine (her crush), and finally cute little brother. They all fall in love with her and have accepted her to their family. They will protect her. While in Diabolik Lovers, we have vampires who want her blood and have taken interests in her. They will do anything to her. Talented voice actors can be heard from both series. Both series are adapted from an otome visual novel and categorized as reverse harem.

COMMENTS FOR KAMIGAMI NO ASOBI
Both of these anime are ones of the best reverse harem you will ever see. In both anime there is 1 main female character which is almost trapped in this specific place and there are people that are not letting her escape. Amnesia is also an anime based around those facts however in her case there is no-one holding her back from escape because she is almost trapped between different world. this is similar to kamigami no asobi because both of the female characters can return home when they have done what they had to do. Amnesia is similar to diabolik lovers because both of the female characters are confused by their situation and are unable to control things that are happening around them.

COMMENTS FOR OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB
When I watched, immediately comes to my mind Ouran Koukou Host Club image. First the "Prince", then the "Intellectual", after that the "Big guy" and finally the "Childish" one with a "teddy bear" in his hands. What's the difference? This is not a club, they are vampires. Maybe I forget the twins... but well, until now is the same.

COMMENTS FOR HAKUOKI ~DEMON OF THE FLEETING BLOSSOM~
If you somehow managed to put up with one of the most pointless and infuriating heroines I recommend Diabolik Lovers! Yes, They could probably protect themselves without the assistance of hot men and yes, they make decisions that will cause you to bash your head against a wall, but the side characters will keep you clicking the ol' faithful 'next' button. Can you make it through this show without screaming at the heroine to run for her life? Probably not.
COMMENTS FOR SHIKI
Both anime contain vampires! The plots are really different, but there's that similarity.

COMMENTS FOR UTA NO PRINCE SAMA
Well, both involves a girl in the middle of 6 guys..a reverse harem for all who don't know. But whereas Diabolik Lovers seems dark and evil, Uta no Prince-sama seems pure and light, well, if you don't mind the seiyuu of the guys singing the songs themselves, then go for it!!
*their singing is not bad plus one of the seiyuu is Mamoru Miyano~
COMMENTS FOR OZMAFIA!!
Both:
- similar art styles
- characters can be comparable ( Kyrie=Laito, Scarlet=Kanato, Axel=Reiji/Shuu, Caramia=Ayato, Caesar=Subaru )
- based on games
- school settings ( sort of )
- music is decent
- make you think "why am I watching this?"
Unique to Diabolik Lovers:
- stupid female protagonist
- stupid vampires
- characters are less likeable
- longer series
Unique to Ozmafia!!:
- weak male protagonist
- characters can be more likeable
- shorter and easier to get through
- light-hearted and comedic
I guess this was sort of a mini review for these series.

COMMENTS FOR DANGANRONPA: THE ANIMATION
now you may think these have nothing in common; but if you love anime based on games and visual novels then these are for you. the psychological genre is very prominent throughout both of these also.

COMMENTS FOR MASTER OF MARTIAL HEARTS
Both shows take genres that are otherwise inoffensive (panty fighters for Master of Martial Hearts, Reverse Harems for Diabolik Lovers) and add shock value to keep the viewer entertained. Both are also considered to be the absolute nadir of anime by many.
If you like one, chances are you will like the other, since you clearly have a taste in anime that destroy the soul.

COMMENTS FOR FRUITS BASKET
Its about a girl who is surrounded my men who seem to care about her a lot. But the girl in Diabolik is a pushover and lets all the men push her around. In Fruits Basket she learns to speak up for what she wants and gos and gets it.

COMMENTS FOR BLACK BUTLER
Both are shows with Gothic and Victorian influences. Each show has a predominately male cast and the shows are marketed towards young women. Both shows contain dark mystery plot lines with supernatural elements. While Black Butler uses demons as their creature of choice, Diabolik Lovers uses vampires. Diabolik Lovers leans towards the sexual side while Black Butler is much more violent and gorey.
