Already with the first episode this show feels like Ghost Hunt - the paranormal service for hire in particular. Plus you have all the same various magicks like shinto, onmyoudo, etc.
Both series are about various stand-alone incidents related to supernatural events, and an organization composed of people from various religious/occult affiliations that work together. Though the views on how magic works and personalities of the character varies greatly, both shows have a lot a similarities.
Ghost Hunt- Group of people with different types of exorcism powers(spirit medium, miko, etc.) helping with cases people hire them for.
Rental Magica- Group of people with different types of magic (celtic witch, demon summoner, etc.) helping with problems people hire them for.
Both series is involved in mystery super natural&poltergeist.but i prefered ghost hound because they have great stories that make you want to keep wacthing,this is best horor series that i have seen comparing with other title had also super natural story spice .You will never regret if you watch this series.

These animes have similar stories. They both fight demons/youkais with magic and they have Onmyoujis and shikigamis in common. Also, two of the main characters, Masahiro and Itsuki, both have a special ability with their eyes.

If you like the supernatural/magical element in this series, you would like Rental Magica. It has similar characters: a group of heros with special abilities, in this case an organization, looking to ward off evil in their city. Both have a hint of comedy, darkness, and adventure. Both have very similar main characters: a seemingly normal main guy with a special ability and a strong female at his side.
Both include an organisation of superpowered members protecting their town. Main chars aren't very strong but the other members are quite smart and tough.

the main character have the coolest eyes hidden in a patch, and their jobs as the owner of a organization that deals with monsters etc.

While seeing all these supernatural abilities, we somehow want to become closer to that kind of world. In Kaze no Stigma is exposed only the one side of it - the direct use of magic without a thought about how it was gained and how it is supposed to be used. But there is Rental Magica that not only focus on the supernatural, on the magic itself, but on explaining the things we don't know about it - how it is related to martial arts, what are the different kinds of magic (e.g. Celtic, Shinto, Solomon) that come from different places on Earth. So if you are fascinated by Kaze no Stigma, you'll just need to learn more about magic with Rental Magica!

Similarities of:
Character Team Play- The play that recquires that the Silent Mobius had an agency called A.M.P. and the mission is to eliminate the Lucifer Hawk Categories. While the Rental Magica title itself it's called to 'rent magic user' and had an agency called Astral, and the mission is to accomplish the client's request even it's a friend or foe.

It may be too early to really tell, but this show is giving off a vibe similar to Rental Magica.

both main char.'s have a childhood friend who helps them with the magic issues. Also surronded by other funny friends.

In both of these series the lead boy is made to be with to the lead girl due to reasons revolving around magic. Also,This anime is mostly revoling aroung magic and other abilities. Both male main characters possess a somewhat different power than others... These two are definatley similar
|

Both have the whole 'boy with a eyepatch that fight demons'.

How would you like be be worthless yet be envied? What about useless but powerful? This story is about making people see beyond looks and talent. It combines humor and action as well as some sad parts in a perfect way. Can you fully understand the moral? Try it~
|
|

the episodes are all mixed up
|
|
|
Both about a useless mage and his beautiful girlfriends/magicians
|
|
|
Both revolve into simply fighting off their enemies, being monsters or not!
Both involve having different classes of magic which each character can use, giving diversity.
Night Wizard revolves teamwork for collection of special orbs and safety of earth.
Rental Magica revolves teamwork for cleansing supernatural phenomenons.

Extremely similar concepts. Both the series has their own plotline, but follow a monster-of-the-week format (meaning that almost each episode is self-contained) although an ongoing plot often involving the main character is present. Magic, spirits and the like are also present when it comes to the different characters in both of these series combating the antagonists.

If you like, things involving demons/youkai, talismans, rune magic, priests/priestesses, then this would be a good simliar setting of Tactics to watch!

They both fight evil beings. D.Gray-man = akuma, Rental Magica = ghosts and other beings, however rental magica also rents out magicians to people for their uses. Also both Allen Walker and Itsuki Iba have eyes to help them do their job.

They're not exactly alike seeing as to how one deals with magic and the other deals with the mafia. Actually, Katekyo Hitman Reborn does have something that can relate to magic - the dying will flames. Anyway, in both series, the protagonist is a boy who isn't very strong at all and is usually constantly protected by others (at first anyway). But when you're hoping something unexpected to happen to save the day, it usually happens with the cause being Tsuna/Itsuki. Both characters get pretty strong and it just looks really cool to watch. (Well, not really Tsuna at first per say, but later, yeah.)

While the two have completely unrelated stories and the magic being shown, both have the same concept. Mages offer their service for a payment in return. If you don't get enough of Someday's Dreamers, pick up Rental Magica for more action comedy.

Both anime are about a magician group to solve a mysterious case and banishing evil. Touko and Iba also have both something special about a eye...

Yuu Yuu is a much older anime than Rental Magica, but very analogous I looked across my whole entire animelist, and Yuu Yuu Hakusho correlated to Rental Magica the most, and vice versa. The supernatural powers are at hand, but take diverse forms.
(Only real thing is... Rental Magica takes a massive leap to take used to as it is lethargic in the beginning)
