21 [Similar Anime] Like Re:Creators

Both of these series have the same director and they are both anime where powerful figures appear in the real world and fight each other. Fate Zero involves historical figures fighting for the Holy Grail while Re:Creators involves characters from various forms of popular media (anime/light novels/video games) fighting over the fate of the consumer world and the people who created them.

In both stories the anime/other world bacomes reality. The people from the anime/other world as well are the people form the real word fight for their beliefs. Both male MCs like very much anime/manga/light novels and also like to come in contact with the people for the anime/other world.

Same scenario but flipped. Normal person is sent to fantasy world. Conflict drama and a varying amount of true seriousness with humor.

Both focus on the creation, heart and impact of stories.
Mega extra highly recommend both mostly to artists and writers (well..creators basically).

Both animes feature heroes and villains from different worlds coming together, with the focal character of the anime being a struggling artist.

Both of these shows explore the nature of storytelling and the relationship between the creator and the created, with self-aware writing and meta use of character tropes.

Both series are about... characters from different universes united in a world, where they fight each other. The only difference is that one has a darker theme (...right?), gory and includes real people that once existed on this planet such as Nobunaga Oda and Joan of Arc, the other has fictional characters from TV series, mangas and games.

- creatures made by humans appear in the real world
- main character is also creating a character, who is also getting real
- main character fights against the "evil" creatures, because they wan't to destroy the real world (the world of their creators)

- several heroes from history (F/A)/games, anime and PVs (RC) got spawned in the real world and must fight
- heroes are divided into 2 major teams
- similar fighting systems; involving magic and sword combat

Both Re:Creators and Fate/Stay Night UBW are about people summoning important figures from history/literature into the real world, where they fight each other.
Both follow a story of a highschool boy who accidentally meets one of the important figures (Saber/Selesia).

Okay this one is a kinda strange bridge that I didn't realized previously, but both are about fantasy characters summoned to the real world and having to deal with the consequences of how the real world effects them. They're very different in tone. Re:Creators is a drama battle, while Devil is a Part-Timer is a fall from grace comedy. Emy and Selestia also have kinda similar character design, but Selestia luckily definitely isn't a tsudere.

If you like Izaya you will like this show. Megane is very similar to Izaya, but eviler and with magic that involves manipulating people with her words. AKA so much worse for those against her. Like Izaya she loves all humans though. In this character comparison Alicetaria is Shizou, which fits but minus shipping.

Both are dialogue heavy series, and feature the concept of power being equivalent to viewership approval. Also feature fictional characters that appear in the real world because of viewers.

I would like to say I have a lot of things to say about these two series. I don't.

While having no notable names due to the characters of Re:Creators are all original characters, both Isekai Quartet and Re:Creators have a similar premise of having multiple characters from multiple types of media and genres and having them all in one world and having them interact with one another.

1. Multiple characters from different worlds converge into one spot and engage in conflict before finally recognizing the real threat.
2. What was relatively a peaceful life for one of the main characters is shattered by the turn of events within the respective series.
3. Both have those particular characters many people would like (ex. Magane and Yuri; Rui and Yugo, Blitz and Kurosaki).
4. The chief main character is actually the main villain (or at least part of), and their demise is more of a mental or psychological approach to where a character closely associated to them reached out to them, assisting in their redemption one way read more

One of the main character for Re:Creators, Selestia is loosely based off Asuna from SAO. Re:Creators is a brilliant battle between copyright safe versions of anime characters from different genre. Its awesome. Selestia has a true fantasy backstory and is more mature than Asuna. But if you loved Asuna and want to see a show where her character type really shines check out RE:Creators and if you somehow haven't seen SAO and want to know Setsuna's base character watch the first half of SAO.

Both have sci-fi and mecha's (usually Selesia Rui for Re:Crators)
Both have beautiful and yet similar soundtracks (But both done by different people)
Both have similar characters
Both have incredible fight scenes
And they both have interesting plot wise

A group of strong characters from different places gathered in one place. They're not familiar with each other, but they have the same goal (to defeat the Demon god in Rokka no Yuusha/to find the creators in Re:Creators). But, instead of achieving their goal, they just fight each other to prove that they're on the right side.

The reality for some might not be holding all the truth, that is the premise of both manga. Either madoka or re:creators show to the public a different kind of history involving mahou shoujo. The only thing important to mention is that in re: creators the mahou shoujo plot is well developed but it still is only a small portion of the main theme presented.

Crossovers of characters from different genres. Creator-creation interactions. Some characters are hostile to their creator because of the circumstances of their canon. Go Nagai World is obviously a LOT goofier than Re:Creators, but if you enjoyed the meta aspects of one, it might be worth it to give the other a shot.
