24 [Similar Anime] Like SSSS.Gridman

Out of all the shows that make attempts to pay homage to Eva, SSSS.Gridman accomplishes this the best in my opinion. Both shows are able to supply the enjoyment of giant kaiju/mecha battles while actually making their characters and themes of existentialism the actual focus of their narratives. If Eva left you satisfied but understandably nihilistic Gridman is a slightly more wholesome take on a similar story.

An homage and a love letter to tokusatsu, complete with the tropes we all know and love, a delightful cast of characters, and a story that goes in a direction you wouldn't expect.

Both are character focused action mecha series! Gridman has more slow, methodical character drama with big action scenes in the second half of each episode. Planet With has some character drama as well but, is more focused on it's themes and allowing the story to expand with psychic mecha battles throughout the series.

Both are more lighthearted mecha series than its contemporaries and have MC's that both have a vague memory. Both MC's are also thrown into a world where they have to fight off the opposing faction in super giant robot battles that leave minimal damage to the actual planet.

Two modern 'sequels' that aren't supposed to be sequels of older franchises. Anyone who enjoys the foggy, dreamlike atmosphere of Gridman might find something similar in Jeeg, where the fog is a little thicker. Expect kaiju fights and oldschool hotblooded action.

Both shows seems to be homages to classic tokusatsu films/series. Both feature a huge kaiju(s) that needs to be defeated by the protagonist and co.
Gridman has significantly less action and seems to rely on giving a surreal or mystery feel to the show. The CG designs are notably much cleaner, but very wonky in terms of movement.
The Godzilla Netflix films are more action-oriented and set up a post apocalypse sci fi setting. The films are all "CG-fied" but have significantly better flow in terms of movement.

Both of the story is about robot, the tengen toppa gurren lagann is fighting another robot, and the Gridman is fighting monster and robot but mostly monster, so gridman is similar with a TV series called "ultraman"

Both are shows with action scenes that revolve around combining robots, hot-blooded action and flashy finishing attacks. Also, SSSS.Gridman constantly homages the Brave series: the mecha franchise where Gaogaigar comes from.

Both SSSS.Gridman And From the new world Era futures And Post-apocalyptic
SSSS.Gridman enemy for monster huge
From the new world enemy For monster Rats
Not really SSSS.Gridman just like utopia / Dystopia

both are anime and both seem like high quality

Although both animes have a different conception and setting, only one thing is associated with them — robots and the main character who has some problems with " health". Besides it, he is surrounded by beautiful girls who fall in love with him, or not.

They're both Trigger shows that don't have quite the usual Trigger feel, but still very good overall animations. Both also involve giant mechas.
Darling in the FranXX is more romance / drama based, focusing on the characterization of the main cast and their journey to better understanding their current world as well as to adulthood.
SSSS Gridman, on the other hand, seems to aim for surrealism and mystery (though not in an ideal way). It also does try to characterize the cast, but to a lesser degree.

both have a similar feeling with both being reboots of a series. both have a transforming gimmick.

This might be far-fetched but watching SSSS.Gridman reminded me of Punch Line because for both I expected action and got very inteligent mystery.
At first glance their plot seems very generic, shounen-oriented and normal but turns out to be much more inteligent and interesting.
In both anime a boy finds himself in a puzzling situation and has to save the world.
Both have high quality animation, with art that is a little bit unusual.

you could say they are mitamedoushi, one of a kind. both anime has mecha action and deep plot in it. some evangelist say gridman copied evangelion, while new weebs said its the other way around. but in my opinion, they are both original.

SSSS.Gridman reminded me of Bleach when I was first watching the show. Gridman and Bleach both share a similar action/slice of life balance to each episode. Each episode there is good character building and also plenty of action/flighting scenes. The characters in Gridman also reminded me of those in Bleach, the side characters mostly, they aren't necessarily human and have a supernatural kind of twist. If you enjoyed Bleach and want to try something a little different I would recommend SSSS.Gridman.

- using mecha surface to make character driven show about their internal struggles
- main characters face similar developement, to not spoil that much
- both were passion projects with throwback to mecha classics of the past

What if God was a high school student with destructive tendencies if left unchecked. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya tells the story of the SOS Brigade valiantly providing entertainment to God so the world doesn't get destroyed out of boredom. SSSS.Gridman tells the story of the Gridman Alliance battling against God's self destructive loneliness. You might enjoy this series if you don't take it seriously.

if you liked deep plot with supernatural touch, you will like both.

Overall SSSS.Gridman makes much more sense than FLCL but it shows tendencies of the same craziness and oversteps some borders that standart anime don't touch.
Both have an inteligent plot, that is fun to analyse, talk about and read stuff into it.
Both have high quality animation, that tends to be a little bit arty.
The characters are teens, and there problems are handelt in an metaphoric way.
Both have mecha and well done fights.

First of all, both are the revival of a series from the past for a new audience. With that said, Gatchaman Crowds and SSSS.Gridman have similar atmosphere and artwork, likable characters and share some tropes.

both are mecha shows about a digital world in which the protagonist has lost his previous memories.

of you liked the hack and slash and henka and gattai, you will definitely liked both. i dont know about the plot tho ;)
