COMMENTS FOR THE THOUSAND NOBLE MUSKETEERS

GridironOtaku says:

Both shows are about weapons portrayed as pretty boys, with the main difference being that for Touken Ranbu they are swords and in Thousand Musketeers they are guns. Thousand Musketeers takes more of the approach with Hanamaru focusing more on the slice-of-life aspect than the more action-driven Katsugeki series.

COMMENTS FOR KANCOLLE

Lulu1221_ says:

Based on a online browser game are both.
While in Kantai Collection are only girls, in Touken Ranbu are only boys.
In KanColle the girls are ships, in Touken Ranbu the boys are swords.
They are fighting with a black organization like to stop them doing bad things.
Where they all live is almost same, just in KanColle is a school like and in Touken Ranbu is a mansion.
