A beautiful girl with magical powers accompanies a mysterious bishounen with a mysterious past and a dark agenda on a journey. Compared to the girl in Hatenkou Yuugi, Hakushaku's girl is a little more timid and her powers are more passive than active (she can communicate with fairies, but she can't cast spells--at least, not as of the first episode). Also, whereas in Hatenkou Yuugi, the girl is genuinely a companion for her two bishounen friends, in Hakushaku she is more a servant of the duke, and at his mercy.
Mainly I think the producers had the same target audience for these 2 shows - probably 14 year old girls- and are in the same general genre. Having said that they're are pretty enjoyable with pseudo-dark plots and complicated relationships.

The story lines deal with relatively the same time period or time period styles. It also has a girl who tries to solve some of the supernatural mysteries that occur around her.
It's kind of similar in the concept of two guys traveling with a girl. Although both animes are quite different, where in Hatenkou Yuugi, in my opinion, there is much more comedy and romance, I think you might like this anime a lot.
Hatenko Yugi, “Dazzle,” is a new anime perfect for those finished with VK. The three are in a very similar environment with mysterious, and yet at the same time elegant, fantasy situations that they must conquer while learning about the characters' intertwined and intriguing pasts that shape their personalities and actions now. The characters are also very similar to Yuuki (Rahzel), Zero (Alzeid) and Kaname (Baroqueheat). (The character of Alzeid even looks a LOT like Zero...) The mystery behind their pasts will keep you hooked along with choosing which guy is the best. The situation of dark fantasy adventure with the tsundere romance is strikingly similar!!
As it is produced by the same group as Vampire Knight, Studio DEEN, the animation and soundtrack is also top-notch.
Two boys and one girl fight against evil. Almost equal.
Because they both seem to make u feel excited while watching it
And both animes have funny parts ^^
There's a similar feeling about character interactions and dialogues. Togame reminds me of Rahzel (in behaviour and partially appearance) and they're both accompanied by men who protect them. The comedy is also similar in both series.
- Funny girl is set out with companions for adventures.
- In both there are magic users.
Has romance and funny words, hilarious ^^
Both have action, magic,and strong female characters. And let's not forget the "funny uncles". Just watch. You'll see.
Both series revolve around people who were formerly clowns. In Hatenkou Yuugi, the character is Baroqueheat. Likewise, Pierrot is the character in Yakitate Japan.
While I feel calling either of these animes "dark" is inaccurate, they do both share somewhat gothic sensibility (more like loli gothic than genuinely gothic). What could be considered dark about these animes is greatly lessened or broken up by the characters' personalities and a healthy does of humor. I think the characters relationships have several similarities as well. Mainly I think the respective creators had the same target audience in mind and catered to them appropriately.

The partners of Rahzel are very alike of Fai and Kurogane from Tsubasa according to their character. So it's like they are wandering around without Syoran, Sakura, and Mokona, but having found Rahzel instead =)
Both are fantasy and adventure with great accent on partnership and friendship and a bit of romance added.
If you liked one, you should like the other.
Although Hatenkou Yuugi is more of an action and Spice and Wolf is more serious, both are good fantasy series with quite similar feeling. And as for leads... I think that Horo and Rahzel are very alike in many aspects.
The art quality and the air of mystery are very similar in both. Both have humor and a dark past.
Its different from other animes! I think if you love D. Gray-man you will love this. ^^
On the basic level these two animes are very dissimilar, but ignoring that, they have a very similar feel.

Both deal with powers of some sort and have somewhat stand alone episodes. The main characters are young girls who are strong (more physically so in HY) and going on adventures of sorts. Also, they both share a mix of humor and creepiness (a little more creep and a little less humor in GH).
Both Anime's have a rather dark side to them, yet still manage to have the lightness that is needed to pull it through to be very likable. I also see Sakon carring Ukon around all the time, and Razel ends up carring around her teddy bear.
Both of these Anime twist historical with sci fi into it. They also have a horror feel to it, though ot a majorly scary one.
Although they have totally different plots, in both animes, the main girl is being protected by two guys. Both girls have very strong powers.
Both seem to have a simular time frame to their storylines, with an adage of the steam punk added in. They include mysteries, which are rather on the bizare side at times, not to mention, it leaves one guessing, nearly at all times.
Both have a lolita plot based story, but while Kodomo is more of a slice of life comedy, Hatenkou Yuugi is more action and romance.
