Koe no Katachi

Well, those two shows doesn't look the same for the scenario but have some similar points.
1- Those two shows speak about child harassment. The main character will try to save or to redeem himself from the other main character, the girl.
2- The atmosphere is oftenly sad but got some funny moments. In those two shows, the main character got a good friend who'll be helpfull (Nagatsuka and Kenya).
3- Minor characters look pretty similar, for exemple: the mother is there without her husband and try to help her son.

Both shows center around the male and female leads early and later lives, with an ominous past relationship and touches on dark topics. 

report Recommended by Bootyman

The main characters focus on helping another person and trying to make up for the past. Dark subjects that many people are afraid to talk about are explored but it's what made the stories as good as they are. How important the actions of just one person can be.

Fixing past mistakes. A Silent Voice and Erased are both stories in which the MCs fix past mistakes with the aspiration of a better relationship between the MCs.

A Silent Voice gives MC Shouya a hard life present time in consequence of his actions regarding bullying Shouko, despite this he aims to fix these mistakes along with Shouko in order to better their relationship. Erased is quite literal in this matter in that Satoru, who travel back to 1988, tries to prevent classmate Kayo's death by fixing mistakes he made at the time.

A Silent Voice offers a high-quality animated dramatic, romantic story. With Erased being on the flip side, offering a dark murder mystery. read more

Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu. addpermalink

Both female leads are using a notebook to communicate or making conversations to everyone. Komi, Shouko who is afraid to speak to everyone and Nishimiya, Shouko who is deaf so she can't speak nor hear anyone. (Both have the same name "Shouko")

Komi, Shouko & Ishida, Shouya who has Communication Disorder, both of them are afraid of facing everyone nor talk to them.

"Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu" is comedy, wholesome, and lighthearted. while "Koe no Katachi" talks about serious issues like anxiety, depression, suicide, and bullying which has more serious tones.

These are two go-to movies if you want a good cry. Super good art direction, animation, color, etc. They both have very similar themes of self-discovery, of trying to venture into a world you are uncomfortable with, and trying your hardest to survive in mentally challenging situations. If you want to watch a movie with lots of heart, that were clearly passion projects, these two are fantastic.

All the emotions. Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms and A Silent Voice both follow stories that give a heartfelt story full of people going through ups and downs one would normally have in an iffy relationship.

Promised Flower has a relationship between an Iorph and human. Silent Voice is between a former bully and a deaf girl (who bullied by the former bully).

Both are great visual masterpieces that you can expect to be filled with the happiest of times and saddest, though Silent Voice is more depressing than Promised Flower.

If you cried with this movie then you'll cry with this. I believe that A silent voice wraps it up more then Sayonara no Asa ni Yakusoku no Hana wo Kazarou. You'll get all the backstory and character development you'll ever want here.

Two sad movies that will make you cry in despair. They have a very similar atmosphere, both are charming, sweet and beautiful, despite the fact that the action takes place in completely different times. They have similar threads of misunderstanding, anger and love, but one is romantic and the other is familial.

Changing with hardships. Weathering With You and A Silent Voice follows MCs who wishes to change their lives for the better due to past experiences.

Weathering With You follows Hodaka as a runaway going into Tokyo, struggling at first. A Silent Voice is the same though Shouya changes as he ages due to his past as a bully, struggling in the process.

Both are great visual masterpieces with Weathering With You having supernatural, fantasy elements. Whilst A Silent Voice is a school drama about the change of a bully.

This Movie touch on a lot of relevant subjects with a different perspective than many other with the same type of message. It  might feel a bit long sometimes and drags on, but it were no big issue for me. 

Like Garden of words (Kotono no Niwa) it is about a generally common subject, but both has likeable characters with their understanable way of dealing with trouble. Although they do not have similar artstyle, they still have similar way of pushing a subject out.

Internal struggles, the typical teenager stuff, but you need to be with others in order to overcome such troubles. They are both stories of understanding and accepting, all connected together with the awesome power of romance. 

There's not too much Soda Pop can offer in comparison to Silent Voice, but if you are looking for something romantic and loving, I'd go with these two. I will also mention how neither are pretending to be too much for their own good with the drama within them.

both are cute love stories and have a similar feel. Definitely a good to watch after finishing this movie 

report Recommended by rokiirokiiro

Both movies involve a boy with a mental handicap (social anxiety/depression) whose life is changed by a girl with a physical handicap (buck teeth/deafness).

While the visuals are significantly different in both films, both take creativities in with the animation, for example the "X"s on the faces in A Silent Voice and the haiku graffiti and color pallet in Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop.

In both films the climax takes place during a festival with fireworks. 

Kensuke Ushio weaved his magic in composing the soundtracks for both films, which sound a little familiar at some points with simple but emotional tunes. 

Overall, the songs (and the overall tone) of Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop is more lighthearted and upbeat, while the music and atmosphere of A Silent Voice is more emotional and serious. There are certainly however similarities in both films than differences. read more

Colorful (Movie) addpermalink

Both have a similar theme of recovery/redemption, and both deal with similar issues, such as suicide and bullying. 

report Recommended by SomeMoron

Both movies explore the social context leading to a teenage suicide attempt. While  Colorful adds a supernatural twist and Silent Voice more romance, both tell the same basic story. Both show what depression, alienation, loneliness, bullying and rejection do to individuals, teenagers in particular. Both include the extended social environment such as friends (or the lack of) and family. Colorful does a better job with the characters, Silent Voice with the storytelling and production values. With a little hyperbole, one could say Colorful is the Art-House edition of the story, and Silent Voice the popcorn movie one. 

report Recommended by inim

Both are wonderful films focusing on themes of suicide and depression. However, the biggest difference is likely the tone. 

Both are dramatic, but Colorful could be considered the more "quiet" version of A Silent Voice. Think of Colorful as a beautiful piano solo, while A Silent Voice is more of a moving orchestra symphony. 

report Recommended by MeloDreams

The storylines in the two movies surround themes of depression, suicide and rebirth. In 'Colorful' the rebirth is more literal, bringing in supernatural aspects. The rebirth in 'Koe no Katachi' is more figurative - a choice made by the characters to have a fresh start. 
The main plot of both movies are similar, where the characters face new relationships and emotions through experiencing life, slowly changing their world-view and getting them to realise how valuable it is.
Both are beautiful films and make the watcher reflect on their own self. They should be a must-watch for everyone.

Tamako Love Story addpermalink

Both Tamako Love Story and Koe no Katachi are directed by Naoko Yamada and produced by Kyoto Animation. Direction styles are distinctively her own, with use of cinematographic techniques and use of flowers as metaphors and right choice of music enhancing the experience. Tamako Love Story has a straightforward story although depth is added by the heroine's deceased mother and heroine's friend Midori whose role I would not disclose here (watch the movie. It's a modern classic). In Koe no Katachi, the themes are more dark and serious and an important side character, Ueno, is voiced by the same voice actress who played Midori- and she does an excellent job portraying that difficult character.    read more

In both movies the female protagonist transferred to another school. In both movies after a few years pass they meet up again and hang out.

A Silent Voice and Mirai share a similar path in expressing hate of a character, only to understand them in their respective future together. 

A Silent Voice follows Ishida bullying deaf girl Shouko. Mirai follows a jealous Kun bullying his little sister Mirai due to her existence taking away his love from his parents. Both Ishida and Kun end up going through some shift in time to talk things through with the ones they have victimised. A Silent Voice does this via time skip, Mirai literally uses time travel.

Both are good movies, which happen to be s.o.l, with good visuals all around.

 ->Both have a girl who can't communicate in a normal way and some romance with a troublesome boy. But in Senryuu Shoujo it's totally focused on comedy and the boy is genuinely a good person, while Koe no Katachi is an intense drama with the boy correcting his past mistakes.

It doesn't require a lot of insight to see how these two movies are related. Made by the same director under the same studio, Liz to Aoi Tori takes the same cinematographic and thematic themes from Koe no Katachi applied on to a different universe. Together with their characters they embark on a journey of acceptance and self-discovery. An award winning formula in which can only be best described as "if it isn't broken, then no need to try and fix it".

Death Parade addpermalink

While this may seem like a crazy recommendation at first glance, the two actually share quite similar themes and messages once you get to the end. They both deal with issues of life and death, self-loathing, regret, and trying to understand others. While Death Parade certainly focuses on it's style and aesthetic, which it has in spades, it never strays from the root message it is trying to convey. Koe no Katachi contains similar messages, mainly about the value of human life and what it means to connect to others. Both Death Parade and Koe no Katachi attempt to not only show the viewer the value of life, but can truly change the way you view yourself and those around you. read more
