Both are the stories about a cyberspace layered on the real world. The concepts and details are bit more confusing and scientific in SEL. SEL is a must watch for anyone who like sci-fi anime like Dennou Coil.
Also has the 'future of cyberspace' aspect. It also deals with children around the same age and is another engaging story that is a joy to watch unfold.
It fuses virtual reality with the real world, but while Serial Experiments Lain philosophizes about god and people, Denno Coil avoids the god issues and instead talks about the connection between and among people. Both stories are surprisingly deep even as the main characters are all children.
Both are dealing with the unknown in cyberspace.
Denno Coil is another series that involves children using futuristic technology.
Definitely a must see for anyone who enjoyed Lain.
It deals with cyberspace interference with normal, real world. Although it's not as dark & deep as Serial Experiments Lain it surely is well crafted and the plot will keep you wanting to watch the whole series.
Both of these Anime deal with the relationship between the real world and a virtual world that has begun to intrude past the traditional boundary between the two. Whoever, while Lain is more complex and is more focused on character interactions, Dennou Coil is more light hearted and easier to understand, and has more "Action" scenes.
Both center around a female protagonist at the forefront of new technology.

Both have similar feels to eachother, and have a sci-fi element, and also involve a bunch of kids.
Denno Coil and Noein tell rather unconventional stories in which children must deal with extraordinary circumstances such as a cybernetic world that mingles with reality in the first case and time travel in the second case. In both cases, a different dimension threatens to bring about destruction and the possibilities that arise from the existence of different worlds is handled in an intelligent and highly original way. For a fresh take on sci-fi themes with out of the ordinary character designs and very fluid animation these titles are a must see.
Maybe Dennou Coil doesn't have battles like Noein, but it has a similar feel to it. Both have kids, high tech devices and mysteries
Both anime involve kids and are Sci-Fi.
Denno Coil is more of a Slice of Life, while Noein has action
In both shows we have different worlds that intertwine and children who travel trough them in order to explore many interesting things.
Dennou Coil is also a sci-fi adventure revolving around children whose world is crossed with another 'universe' (virtual reality in this case). It also boasts endearing characters, a well-developed world with unique sci-fi elements and some surprisingly cool action-scenes. So if you liked Noein, check out Dennou Coil.
Even though the storylines of these series are pretty different, both Dennou Coil and Noein and unique, innovative series with elements that you don't see very much in most anime. Both have a similar feel to them, involve high technology, and contain common thematic elements.
What at first glance seems to be a children story turns out to be involving well written story with a twist. Writing is convoluted and infodumbing. Characters are developing throughout the series. Great production quality especially motion animation. Finally there's imaginative and original setting

While the settings are vastly different (Futuristic computerized city, verses rural small town) the over all themes dealt with in the two series are very similar. Loss of loved ones and learning to move on, understanding what is real and what is fake, etc.
Haibane Renmei and Denno Coil may seem very different at first glance, HR taking place in an environment deprived of modern technology while DC focuses on the borders between reality and the internet but the spirit of both shows is remarkably similar. Both deal with young female leads who must learn how to adjust to unusual circumstances surrounded by mystery in a world where things are not as they at first may seem. The original take on this theme is enhaced by thoughtful moments and a subdued but very lush artwork. What truly seals the deal in establishing a kinship between the two titles is the relationship between two young girls: a certain emotional healing takes place in HR and DC, providing excellent character development through and through.
In both these series, the ultimate conflict involves an emotionally damaged girl having to come to terms with her past trauma through the help and friendship of another girl. The latter parts of both series have a similar mood.
They are both about young people coming to trust others and move on from the past. Endearing, believable cast of characters combined with a surreal setting that both warms and chills the viewer, makes these two more similar at heart than any other series that are recommended.
There are strange parallels in characters. And o much kindness in both titles!

The kids in both anime use skills/technologies to have "souls" separated a while to go to alternative worlds (often in a condition of not being dead) that have creatures look black (ghosts/illegals).
Same atmosphere and mysterious "unseen worlds" like parallel dimensions. In Dennou Coil it's virtual reality, home of cyberpets while in Ghost Hound it's the home of ghosts. There are kids in both series who try to discover these worlds.
Involves kids living a second, overlayed "meta" reality without the full awareness of their parents, or participation of adults.
Ultimately, their activities relate to something going very wrong and spilling over into the real world.
In both animes the unknown beings are similar. The characters are both a young group of kids who are curious and get into lots of trouble and somehow they discover something beyond their knowing.
In both series, there is a gap between fantasy and reality that is explored.
Both series make a connection with its character cast (similar age range) and takes a setting in a somewhat utopia like world. From that world, there is supernatural and mysteries that surrounds the events presented throughout both series.
Both series features layers and layers of mystery, some which are unique and becomes a source of plot device in both series.
Quite a rare gem worth checking out.

Mysteries hidden in the alleyways and streets of human civilization, secrets that people hold and forgotten memories. Experiences that can be terrifying yet at times not so bad.
If the part of Dennou Coil or Durarara!! that you liked the best is the urban mystery (internet rumors, urban legends, unexplainable(?) phenomena) with a colorful cast of characters, try the other out.
Everything is ocmpletely different, but the feeling you get while watching Durarara!! is the same as the one in Dennou Coil. In both of them, character development in great, there are some amazing plot twists and both of them are looking more into what happened in the past (Celty's head vs. Who's 4432) then what will happen in the future (eg. in Naruto you're wondering if he will save Sasuke or not). If you liked iether of them because of the sotry and plot twists, you're definatelly gonna adore the other one as well.

both series have an alternative world aspect to them.

Both series immerse you in a future of day to day technology far beyond our own, yet taken from a perspective of rediscovering the wonder of said technology. While Denno Coil's main cast is far younger than Eve, they both have their unique takes on what this future could be, and spin a story worthy of attention. Both are hidden gems - you should take note of.
Both series contain the sci-fi genre that are presented in a rather more unique way than the traditional types.
Both series focuses on technology that are utilized in an way that is considered peculiar but also at the same time, intriguing and hard to miss.
Both series also contain a strange similar feeling in that they bring forth science fiction in a way never seen before.

Both are good sci-fis featuring children solving mysteries having to do with digital creatures, programs/viruses and a virtual/digital world. They are notable for being rather serious and realistic for shows featuring child protagonists, but also have their light-hearted and humorous moments.
Both involve children being forced into adult situations by the influence of digital entities. They both explore the characters' pasts, why they act the way they do now, and what the digital world had to do with it.

Magical Slice of Life Adventure. Plus both are excellent quality in terms of animation and story!
Both stories have middle school girls as the main characters with a twist thrown in, the settings share a similar small-town feel and have very well done animation. Dennou Coil is more serious and features science fiction elements while Kamichu! is more light-hearted slice of life with fantasy elements. Both a very enjoyable and of great quality with interesting ideas.

In .hack,the virtual world is an MMORPG,in denno coil,the virtual world is accessed by wearing cyber glasses,both worlds have big mysteries and urban legends concerning their creations that the characters try to figure out,that's just the start,there's more similarities but i don't want to spoil the show,i'll let you discover them.
Denno coil has more action and comedy (the comedy is very present in the first half of the show,it almost completely disapears in the second half) while .hack has a slower pace.
both deal with nearest future, digital reality and coma. they have different atmosphere but similar feeling

The Future and Girls firin them lazers

- the main two girls in both series both start off start off as enimies but one ends up saving the other in the end.
- While the theme of these anime are different, they both have an aura of mystery where you don't fully understand what is going on until the story is fully unravelled at the very end. This quality is what makes the storytelling of both of them so beautiful.

future full of electronics, mystery, teenagers work for some secret organization; and one more very similar thing is Adol Brinberg'sYuuko's complex: the character that actually isn't bad does bad things because of hisher ill sibling

tech - kids - intelligent conversations - good humor

Both titles explores on the dilemma of how being intimately close to technology might impact the emotional, social, and cultural aspect of humans as he struggle to adapt with its implications.
|
|

Both have a bunch of children. The theme is basically also about getting over the loss of a loved one. Light-hearted. Slice-of-life. Somewhat cute and funny.
|
|
|
Despite the completely different setting, both tell the story about reconciliation with the loss and parting.

The two series take place in the not-so-distant future, with Dennou Coil being a couple decades from now with the influence of Augmented Reality glasses, and Planetes half a century with the space revolution reaching the general public. Both take a realistic approach at handling these future technologies that isn't too over the top. Plot-wise, they take a light-hearted Slice-of-Life start for the first half, and a serious dramatic plot for the last half too. Both series have their funny episodes, serious episodes, and a good amount of WHAM and character development. Both also have high-quality input production, with Planetes taking advice from JAXA and Dennou Coil having been in production for years with a veteran director/producer behind the project.

The two series has several similarities: A group of children in a futuristic setting, getting involved in an incident that eventually they'll have to investigate to explore and solve its hidden mystery that is affecting their very lives. While both series has mature themes, Loups=Garous contain scenes that may be disturbing for some viewers.

Cencoroll and Dennou Coil are quite particular.
While Cencoroll evolves around "real" weird beings, Dennou Coil has "virtual-but-somehow-real" weird beings.
Definitely original interesting stories are another shared part of both anime.
Still, the two share the same sci-fi genre.
Also, somehow i have the feeling that designs can be considered a little similar as well, especially when it comes to the weird creatures around both worlds.
I highly suggest to watch both, since i think a perfect word to describe them is: interesting.

The Ghost in the Shell series, specifically the 'Stand Alone Complex', and Denno Coil feature worlds where the internet has been heavily integrated into society. Each anime shares this feature; however, both take drastically different perspectives. Ghost in the Shell is what some would call a 'hard' science fiction, whereas, under the same scrutiny, Denno Coil would be considered a 'soft' science fiction. I think the adjectives 'hard' and 'soft' to a lot to describe the differences between the anime in terms of art, sound, story, and animation. For example, Ghost in the Shell takes the perspective of agents of the government who have cybernetic implants which they use to kill the bad guys. Denno Coil takes the perspective of children who frequently play games, and solve puzzles. In both cases connecting to the network causes an entire meta-world to open up for the characters to explore. People who enjoyed either of these anime should be able to find some enjoyment in the other for the above mentioned reasons.

The "encodes" used in Dennou Coil are very reminiscent of the enigmatic style of alchemy seen in Fullmetal Alchemist. Interestingly the symbols and patterns, despite being apparently pretty much just magic, are justified as "science" and technology in both series. Like Fullmetal Alchemist, Dennou Coil is also very much a "coming of age" story that has somewhat darker tones occasionally, especially towards the end. I would recommend that fans of Fullmetal Alchemist watch an episode or two to see if they enjoy it.

In both anime, the world has gone computerized and virtual; and children spend their time in the virtual world. Additionally, the kids are being attacked by a thing that is supposed to protect them: in Dennou Coil, it's Sacchi; and in Dennou Boukenki, it's the Web Knights.

Denno Coil and Kakurenbo focus on a group of children and their efforts to unravel the truth behind urban legends. Both take place in worlds filled with bizarre events with the idea of playing a game being present. Denno Coil has plenty of light hearted moments, though, while Kakurenbo is considerably darker, stranger, and downward tragic.

Zettai Shounen and Dennou Coil involve children investigating unusual events related to rumors and urban myths/folktales of their respective locales. What is regarded as "real" is questioned in both stories, and the key to solving the mysteries is locked in the protagonist's murky past.
|
|
|
Very much the same premise, a bunch of kids find glitches in a program that is connected to the real world.

Most users will blame me to compare the masterpiece Akira to Denno Coil, but actually they are similar in some points.
Both storylines are focused in young characters (teenagers Tetsuo/Kaneda in Akira; kids Yasako/Isako in Denno Coil) that have a very unusual behavior in their society. They are "rebels", yougsters that goes against the rules of society to acquire more knowledge about a phenomenon (Akira in Akira; Illegals in Denno Coil) and in both animes they surpass a lot of obstacles to decipher the mysteries hidden in their world.
Another highlight on these animes is the drama: The mix of love/jealousy/betrayal/friendship that develops between the characters is well-build and fascinating. Well, enough babbling and watch Denno Coil and Akira, two great sci-fi anime!

Other than similar twin ponytail hair styles, Re-1 Mayer seems like a future Amasawa Yuko when she gets older...in another world...of course.
|
|
|
Similar character styles
Both involve a cyberverse overla of reality that is central to the plot
|
|
|
Why you ask? Yes, they are too defferent - but the character design, the similar atmosphere...
Whats more the two sisters - Satsuki and Mei(My Neighbor Totoro) / Kyoko and Yuuko(Dennou Coil) - are alike.

Both series are about cyberspace in the near future.

Brave Story and Denno Coil both deal with a "normal" child thrust into a world that is half real, half make-believe -- but which nevertheless is dangerous. Themes of alienation, fear, a personal sense of failure, responsibility and the essential fragility of a seemingly strong individual are all present in both anime.

The more i watched dennou coil and eureka seven, the more it reminded me of eachother. the illegals and Coralians seemed so similar. there are even human like ones in dennou coil and eureka seven. Also, the Scub Coral reminded me of the coil domain. i think if you liked dennou coil, you might like eureka seven.
