Both take place back in the samurai days.
PMK isn't as dark or brooding as Bakumatsu is, but both are historical fiction. In fact, both include the Shinsengumi. PMK focuses mainly on the Ikedaya incident of the Shinsengumi and follows 15-year-old Tetsunosuke Ichimura as he goes out to avenge the death of his parents (he also meets Ryoma Sakamoto, who, in Bakumatsu, is Akizuki's master).

The only negative thing I would say about this is that they over-exaggerate the blood spatter.
Both titles are about the Shinsengumi in the same era of Japan's history. A handful of the characters are featured in both works, so it's interesting seeing the same historic people portrayed differently.
The characters are also related somehow. LIke okita, toshiro and such... Shinsengumi... All the less, they're both good~!
Synopsis
Although traumatized by witnessing the murder of his parents by one of the Choushuu, Ichimura Tetsunosuke's thirst for revenge lead him to desire strength. At the age of 15, Tetsunosuke approached the Shinsengumi, wanting to become one of its members. However, Tetsunosuke lacked the skill, mind and will to emotionlessly cut down whoever threatened peace and the Shinsengumi. Even with the support of his brother Tatsunosuke and his newfound friends of the Shinsengumi, little did Tetsunosuke know the blood and pain he would have to face being part of this historical group. Based on the manga by Chrono Nanae.


Both anime on samurai, set in the same time period

both have a lot of samurai and an annoying little kid
These are two of my favorite Samurai series. The art work is beautiful and both the stories are wonderful and drama filled as well.
Samurai action is all this show is about and, if you are an aficiendo for that kind of thing than this is the show for you. Set in 1860's Japan Peace Maker Kurogane paints the story from the Shinsengumi's point of view, and not the side we are used to seeing in RK. Fifteen year old Ichimura Tetsunosuke wants to join the ranks to avenge his parent's untimely deaths. However, his short stature and ill temper make him reduce to grunt work for the Vice Commander. A slew of interesting and great characters present themselves throughout the story. Highly recommended!
Both of these anime have to do with a group of samurai, while they are in different time settings both deal with the aspect of bonding, fighting and getting to know one another.
