The themes of human beings purposefully being limited so that they are primitive are shown in both TV series. There's also a "God" like being in each series. Mecha is surprisingly in both as well.
Both series follow female protagonists who struggle to free humanity from the shackles of their mysterious and more advanced overseers. Honoka from The Third is definitely more self-sufficient, whereas Scrapped Princess's Pacifica is more your typical damsel in distress. Both shows are quite underrated in my opinion, and feature good character development and a fantastic, colorful setting.
Scrapped Princess and Tales of the Abyss have so much in common that fans of one are very likely to enjoy the other. They are both fantasy stories set in a pseudo Medieval setting where lost technology exists in the form of steam driven machines, where spells, sword fighting, prophecies and mystical battles and powerful magical/religious sects dominate. Royal but unfortunate leads and a sense of questing with plenty of travelling thrown in for good measure only make these anime even more alike.
Both begin in the same atmosphere, the fantasy-medieval world, and head toward a bit sci-fi as the series progresses. The art is somewhat similar and the fights between the characters are also very well drawn. Even though Utawarerumono is packed with girls (a bit of a harem there), it clearly shares the same genre as Scrapped Princess. Fantasy, magic, action and awesome battles, you'll find all in both Utawarerumono and Scrapped Princess.
Well both start with a majestically child that has been rejected by their parents because of a bad omen or fortune telling. For the sake of everyone the child has to survive and so get protected by some sort of family.
Similar fantasy-style plot with underlying sci-fi - and both reach about the same level of epic-ness by the end.
Both are about a girl travelling with a group who protects her from an unknown enemy seeking to capture/kill her. If you like long journeys with lots of action and devoted characters you should like these.
They are a lot alike story wise. Where-as the both Aya and Pacifica are hunted by their families and their people. both have a twin brother who doesn't have the same fate as them, the sister. Both are very good stories, they each have their differences, but they are just as good. even though Ayashi no Ceres is a little bit darker, i recommend both.
Similar fantasy setting in both anime, so if you like the enviroment of one, you'll most likely like the other as well.
I'm surprised not to find this here sooner. Reach halfway through Sora no Woto, and the real sinister backstory of the setting starts to poke through. Suddenly all the musical tones, all the moments of expressionlessness, the whole show is tinged with a huge stain of despair and oppression. Kind of like how Scrapped Princess pulled it off when the big tweest happens, just a thousand times subtler. But that silent slap to the face leaves a huge, resounding echo through the viewer.

A-1 Pictures has trolled us again (Birdy the Mighty: DECODE, Kannagi, Valkyria Chronicles); this show is kicking major ---.

Both anime have a similar fantasy world as their setting. They both have a cast of interesting and good looking characters. The protagonists are also similar because they are both young and have royal blood in them and they have many likable companions and friends who help them overcome the difficulties of their respective journeys.
Both series are about a prince/princess becoming outcast of his/her own kingdom/empire. They both revolve around a revolution (though less literally in Scrapped Princess) and both have a main character who possesses a unique and very powerful ability.
I know alot of people will be scratching their heads at this... But I found them similar in two ways. First off they both have very defined and clear cut fight scenes, which I absolutely love in anime. All though Scrapped Princess isn't as action packed as Samurai Champloo they both have very enjoyable fight scenes.
Another similarity is the long trip where one helpless female is protected (more so in Scrapped Princess for obvious reasons -.-) by two strong fighters.
Anyway, hope it helped! :)
Not that similar but they both get hunted by someone
In both series, there is the crossover of magic, fantasy, and technology involving military themes. Additionally among the characters, there is that sibling love feeling.

Furthermore, both series features the adventure type of theme where the characters tries to discover the truth and learn more about the world that they live in. There's also that type of political and conflict-ridden plot crafted into a beautiful story.

Also, there'is action, drama, tragedy, and some hints of romance in both series.

Both anime settings are the same the MC's on both series are princesses which hold great power.


Well I ain't wanna spoil it but if you watch you'll know.
Both have the same feeling of magic and Fantasy with a cute swordsman. Also have strange beings that have almost godlike powers.
In both series, there is a theme of adventure and fantasy taking place in a world of cruelty, power, and dominance.

There is a plenty of action, drama, and some romance presented in both series. The main protagonist from both series are also tough and cunning with the things they do.

Both series' characters also focuses on development as well as interactions with others throughout the course of the story. It is through these relationships that they learn more about themselves and others.
Technology and the military are present in both series as the protagonists shares a sibling like relationship as they endure on journeys/missions.

Love and friendship plays major roles in the story as the world is set into a fantasy like/futuristic setting. There's something mysterious behind the scenes in both series as there seems to be an imminent war brewing.

both are fantasy stories with crazy mechanical dragon things
People should be free to make good and bad decisions. But do they want that?

Similarities:
● temple
● girl with power to change the world
● religion that rules the world
● people trying to free the world
Both shows create a complete fantasy world with its own set of rules. Both have their own politics and their own take on magic. Unlike Scrapped Princess, Shadow Skill's world is entirely self-contained. I would rank Scrapped Princess as third among shows I have seen for being most like Shadow Skill (behind Claymore and Seirei no Moribito).
The story takes place in a fantasy world and revolves around a 15-year-old girl named Pacifica Casull, who is the sister in a set of twins born to the royal family of a kingdom called Leinwan and then, literally, thrown away. The 5111th Grendel Prophecy predicts that she will be the "poison that will destroy the world" if she reaches her sixteenth birthday. To prevent this she is dropped off a cliff as an infant. Believed to be dead, her survival remains no more than a rumour until she is already 15 years old.
Both are fantasy anime where main characters have to go on a journey. Fights, magic and dragons involved.
Both shows contain a main character with a destiny that will determine the fate of the world. The concepts of fate and predetermination are focussed on strongly by each series. In either one, fate seems pretty grim. Scrapped Princess is considerably lighter than X, but they both hint towards a 'doom and gloom' conclusion throughout each respective show.
Both have fantasy elements, with magic used by the characters to combat an evil organisation. Both go on adventures, and encounter problems with some good action. They both also have lots of drama, with the guy who has a possible love interest for the main girl (who has some unfortunate fate/destiny concerning the world and it's destruction) and fight to find a way to stop it.
Good watches for those who like this type of genre, if you like one, you'll be sure to like the other.
Very similar adventure theme
Similar feeling, both have magic and some kind of Lost Technology. While traveling on their adventure they also find more about the truth in a same way.

Although the stories are very different in tone, both Arc the Lad and Scrapped Princess are "Swords and Sorcery" fantasy anime that also have some underlying sci-fi elements.
Similar plot, a long quest to reach some place. Both have female main character with some kind fo special ability.
Both are adventure stories in which the protagonists are girls that are chased because of a hidden power that they have. Both have a medieval world with some rare and mysterious technology as a setting.

Both have princesses who were thought to be executed at an early age and are still hunted as rumors of there survival spread, and it is hard to say why else I recommend them more then that without spoiling the 'twist' at the end
episodes 8-9 in Air seem a lot like Scrapped Princess two people are trying to protect someone who they say is "cursed" but not.They both are quite sad you should check them both out ;)
The setting of each of these two series are alike in that they both have 15 year old main protagonist born into prestige, but similarly have dark emotions that serve as ghosts in their respective closets. Also in both series the main characters are charged with being/having some sort of flaw, neither knowing how or why it is so. In Scrapped Princess, Pacifica is "the poison that will destroy the world", and Oz has unwittingly committed a "sin" worthy of being banished from the earth and sent into the "Abyss" in Pandora Hearts. Overall they just remind me of each other, don't know why no one has made the connection yet. Ahah =)
Both sound simular type stories and battles
They aren't directly similar, however they are both good anime which I for some reason always link together.
Both Scrapped Princess and Trinity Blood deal with a *********SPOILERS************** world with a dominant religious body as a major political power.
While Scrapped Princess starts out as a straight fantasy series, however, Trinity Blood is more of a steam-punk society.




SPOILER PART:
Both Scrapped Princess and Trinity Blood deal with post-apocalyptic tech-powered 'magic' world with a dominant religious body as a major political power.

Scrapped Princess is also an adventure-type anime, and it's about world destruction as well, with god-like creatures that try to balance the world and stuff. Then, both have some sci/fic parts in them, and in which it's kind of confusing. Overall, both are really good anime's and are worth watching. On the other hand, Scrapped Princess is longer <26 eps>. Enjoy! ^^
In both anime main girl character (Rika and Pacifica) are trying to escape from their destiny which is their death. Also, many people want them dead. But all these girls want is a normal life with their friends.
