If you liked Highschool DxD, then you will like Highschool of the Dead too. Action, Ecchi, Supernatural are some genres in both anime. Cute girls with powers or guns —perfect !
The main characters are similar (a shy girl, the most powerful girl, a smart girl, and a guy...) A harem for the eyes ! ;)
Lots of action and they are both echhi :3
In both shows,the story is good, there are good fights, pretty girls and ecchi.
Both have the "supernatural" aspect, some of the girls are into the protagonist, and of course both have a little bit of ecchi.
Both has same amount of fan service , actions, interesting story lines
Lots of ecchi, some fights, good quality and too much awesomeness all over the anime
hot girls, lots of fanservice, fighting and good story
lots of ecchi, and they both have a lot of action
the horrors of the supernatural and a also some good laughs...
Both shows have a great deal of half naked girls with a weapons, action and humor. What's not to like. So if you enjoyed Highschool DxD, there is no doubt that you'll like HOTD.
Both are about how a guy is suddenly thrown into a life threatening situation where they have no control over.Both are ecchi/action and a little bit of harem type animes.Highschool DxD has more of a demon/action theme to it where as Highschool of the Dead is more of a horror/action.
Highschool of the dead reminded me of Highschool DXD. The main characters are really similar. They series are really good, with a good plot. Either way, both series are a must watch ^.^
-Both focus a lot on action and ecchi.
-Both about monsters. (HOTD has zombies, while DXD has demons, etc)
-Both have 4-5 females, and 2 males as the main characters. Basically what I'm trying to say here, is that in both series there's a group of breasts fighting, while their clothes slowly rips apart, along with 2 other male main characters.
-Both have either weapons/powers.
-Both have lots of blood.
Did I say ecchi? Well imma say it again xD. Both series contains a lot of ecchi~!

The level of horror isn't like Highschool of the Dead, but they are both must see animes. They're just awesome if you like horror, killing, and just plain blood shed.
Both with excessively needless amounts of boobs and gore.
Very Bloody anime
same time can be amusing and ecchi
Both of these take a serious premise, like zombies or mutants, and then throw in an incredibly unnecessary level of fanservice.
They both have a lot of blood, and ecchi, and a strong story. If you like Elfen Lied, you will like HSOD
both animes have a great voltage level! I love both!
Both are action-type animes with a tiny bit of comedy, have slight harem themes, and involve lots and lots of killing. Also, great dubs. To sum it all up in one sentence: boobs, blood and death.
Action, Horror, Military,
Elfen Lied, unfortunately, does not have Ecchi :(
Both of these anime are same, blood,action,ecchi and horror.HOTD is shounen while elfen lied is seinen and HOTD is supernatural while elfen lied is psychological

Contains a lot of violence as well as a good amount of fan service.
Both contain a big amount of blood, action-packed & not to mention all the ecchi elements they have.
In both,the characters are forced to cooperate and fight against monsters/zombies in order to survive.
HOTD has much better animation and character design.
If you like one you might enjoy the other as well.
People must survive an impossible situation, in Gantz there are aliens; in Highschool of the Dead there are zombies. Both have nudity, both are very gore. While Gantz have realistic characters, HOTD focuses more on fan service and Bad-ass characters.
it have so much action like gantz
also its about a group pf people who have to run for there lives
Both have fowl language and fan service.

Both Have Like That Same Vibe / Feeling even though one is about zombies and one is about dead kids and their life. U get the feeling that like the group is fight against everything else and like stick together with lots of comedy =D hotd has more eechi though.
Both are story of survival. In, Angel Beats! they fight to survive so that they will not disappear from the afterlife while in Highschool of the Dead they fight to survive from the creepy undead zombies. You can say that they are both gore and have unexpecteed endings.
Both involve combat at what seem like large school complexes, and feature brutal, bloody, gory combat. Also seems to feature characters with pasts they regret.
both fun ;). both have guns. xD . and cool actions i guess
The art work is very similar and it also has to do with untrained kids dealing with weapons for separate insane reasons. Angel Beats is definitely the greater of the two taking out the ecchi elements in HOTD and replacing it with very intense drama but HOTD concept is very imaginative and is actually very hard to pull off when it comes to zombie apocalypse as it never truly has an ending just ask the people who made RESIDENT EVIL

Both loaded with Gore, amazing quality, and overall great feeling shows. Highschool of the Dead has a lot more fan-service, but that doesn't mean Hellsing Ultimate doesn't have any.
Both don't have a serious story and is all about the badass characters and the gory action, both have zombies in them, both have bad ass weapon specialist. HOTD has ecchi and Hellsing Ultimate has those cartoon comedy moments. Both are high quality animation Madhouse production.
To quote Wedding Crashers "It's sexual and violent."
Blood, Gore, Action. Both feature a rather large amount of fan service and both feature at least one girl with a rifle.

While Higurashi no naku koro ni is a lot more Mystery and about mysterious murders, both of them contain a lot of gore.
Both about students and making big changes, changing your attitude towards things. They both have similar artwork and are both quite gory, although HOTD is more gory.
They both are gory. Psychotic people are also included in both.
the both are gore and both got really good history
|
|
|
The protagonists and their friends are isolated from society (or a lack of), and they must fight for their survival. Both are gory in nature and features heated fight scenes.
It starts off as a normal school day then all hell breaks loose, and both these anime's have lots of death and blood :) enjoy.
There's much Blood. One thing that different is zumbi's
Both series feature a main male protagonist where after a certain event, his life is changed forever. By basis, the characters in the series are isolated at a location that is no longer where they feel like at home.
Both series feature horror themes where there is violence, gore, and blood spilled.
Both series focus on survival and how the main characters must find ways to ensure that he lives and achieves his ambitions.
Both series have action and supernatural themes.

for some reason they looked similar. Lots of ecchi and action
Action packed with strategically placed censoring ><
Both are a easy short ecchi story, with some nice fights very well drawn
|
|
|
Both have zombie's in it :D
Try Watching this Both series has zombies in them but this one has a bit ecchi scenes but you will like it very much.
Both are zombie animes,other than that these two are completley different.Sankerea is about trying to prolong a zombie girls life while Highschool of the Dead is just about escaping from the zombie infestation.But you dont find many zombie animes so if your a zombie fan like me you'll enjoy both.

In both animes everything was peaceful, until suddenly people start turning into monsters, zombies in High School of the Dead and vampires in Shiki. Both anime contains an atmosphere of horror and mystery. If you want an anime with blood and slaughter, both are recommended.
Both animes begin with a normal world until an sudden outbreak of undead monsters occur (zombies in HOTD; vampires in Shiki). Soon people have to destroy these and stop them from spreading and killing more people. Both have a lot of blood, gore, action and killing.
Both are kinda similar, in both it starts with a rare decease and people figuring out what it is. Both contains the atmosphere of mystery and horror. The difference in Highschool of the Dead, the story takes place in the city and its about zombies. In Shiki, it takes place in an small village and its about vampires.

Both ecchi.
Both are about zombies.
HSOTD is WAY more ecchi and violent ~
both really good. ;3
In this case, the main character is a zombie and his party is composed of other super-powered characters.
Both are about zombies. However, one is heavier on the ecchi and gore while the other is more light hearted and random. The atmosphere these 2 gives is completely different. HOTD is like a thriller with excessive fanservice, unlike Zombie which mixes many genres together to create a rather unorthodox story (mahou shoujo mixed with zombie= win?)
|
|
|
Both of the series contain many buxom girls having bloody fights with undead monster while their clothing is getting ripped apart.
Both Shikabane Hime and HotD revolve around one main theme - killing undead zombies. Action-oriented.
|
|
|
Both have zombies and good amounts of gore, however, HOTD is mainly fanservice/ecchi based where Zombie-Loan is not.
involves zombies but in a larger scale
|
|
|
Action, Supernatural, Thriller/Horror, Both anime contains the same genres, Both are a little bit brutal, (Even though on High School Of The Dead they killed zombies? Is that called a brutal?) No wonder, There are some blood shed, Action, Fighting, And I've seen some zombies in Mirai Nikki, Isn't that called a zombie? Or err, Just similar to zombie would be fine, One more thing, Both shows contains Mild Nudity. High School of the dead shows some porn? Or what, Just what they mean "Ecchi" And about the Mirai Nikki, I think less than?
Goofy fanservice and quite a bit of gore
|

Both have next to no plot development until the last two episodes, and both also are only held together by an incredibly epic fatty that serves as comic relief.
Both kick start with zombie disaster occuring within a school.
In Highschool of the Dead's case, the school is actually infested with zombies, a theme this series stays loyal to, yet within Occult academy, spirits take on a zombie-esque role, mindelessly attacking anybody and everybody, possessing dead bodies in one case, infecting thoses attacked, yet occult acedemy is open to all sorts of supernatural events occuring.
Both schools need bringing down, as they litterally harbour nothing but trouble!
Perhaps I should highlight, though this is my opinion, that both feature exceptionally annoying heroeins, from the selfish, somewhat dopey Rei within HOTD, to the know-it-all superiour Maya within Occult

Boobs, action, and countless Crowning Moments of Awesome. A lot of the main chars are comparable: Sasha= Komura, Mafuyu= Rei, Teresa= Saeko, Ekatrina= Saya, Tomo=Shizuka, etc. Both have really good (And similar) art and were made recently. SnQ is more fantasy themed though, while HOtD is slightly more realisic.
Do you like shows that initially promise a unique setup and lots of awesome action, but are then dragged down by ridiculous amounts of fanservice? Then either of these shows are for you!

Surprised no one already recommended this anime. Similarities include gratuitous violence, strong overly attractive female leads, zombies and the like. A must see if you like HS of the dead.
Both are very campy action series with decent animation, and a considerable amount of fan service. Ga-Rei: Zero has a wider audience for it's service, so there's that.
I thought HoTD was a lot better, but Ga-Rei: Zero stood to be stupid fun.

It has the same animation style as H.O.T.D
It also involves action,lil goriness and romance.
If U like one,U'll eventually like the another ;)
Both of these products contain
+ interesting dramatic life questions
+ numerous stylish scenes of fighting
+ really great romantic line
+ burlesque humor - not very much, but rather nice
+ and a lot of BT ecchi (also nudity & some h ).

Tragedy happens and people struggling to survive. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 is better though; no violence, no fan service, just pure humanity.
Both deal with a very realistic, destroyed Japan where everyone is in a massive state of panic. Both have drama, although in Highschool of the Dead it's a lot more action than anything else.
|
|
|
Same Western styled Horror and walkers (albeit different styles).
Same bullshit setting, horror-wannabe, no-plot. Watch only for laugh. And boobs.
|
|
|
Both anime are focused on survival, and the main characters are constantly worried about betrayal. Rightfully so, I might add. Highschool of the Dead has massive amounts of ecchi and fanservice while Btooom has barely any.
Both main characters left their normal life's and have the same goal: Stay alive in a world ruled by chaos and cruelty

What can I tell ya - Infection, zombies, post-apocalyptic time, lots of blood.
This may seem obvious but both heavily zombie based and action loaded. The thing is its hard to compare high school of the dead with a lot of anime since its unique since there's almost no survival styled anime. Biohazard (resident evil) tho is a movie based on survival horror in most ways. The movies deals with surviving a zombie filled airport and eventually develops a larger plot with the will pharma corporations virus/cure.
high school of the dead is a more traditional city survival and because of that i would have liked to recommend Biohazard damnation which is the sequel to degeneration but it was sadly not listed on my choices. I think you can get enjoyment from both movies if you liked HOD. It may lack the erotic and sexual content but it has all the action that i felt the show needed more of.

The main theme for both anime series is" survival." Their peaceful days are changed forever. The humans face an unstoppable force that causes the world to panic in fear. The Zombie/Titans appear in groups and attack on instinct.
With only a select few of brave humans will humanity survivor or cease to exist.
both are an anime where humans are abruptly shattered with tragedy and despair within a few minutes of there normal everyday lives.
both anime shows the existence of an unnatural 'being' appearing out of nowhere suddenly and destroying what humanity created within centuries only to crumble within a few hours or less.
both are very realistically precise as to what humans exactly 'do' in a do or die situation/desperate situation, it shows the mental state as something unnatural in everyday lives appears suddenly and causes upright despair, will they rebel,cower in fear,be courageous,stupidity etc.
both animes follow/show as the story progresses a group of young teenagers as they fight for their/humanity survival, defeating the 'beings' as they move to safety.
both show tragic deaths in inhumane ways, that will strike emotion into the audience, while the supporting cast watches the slaughter
they are both similar as a group of teens are fighting against 'monsters' to save humanity/themselves, probably enjoy one if you enjoy the other.

Maji de Watashi Koi Shinasai! is another anime based heavily on action scenes and fanservice, although less of the latter than HotD. Though not yet complete, Watashi Koi Shinasai has quite a bit of potential to develop into an excellent story.
|
|
|
Both anime have a huge amount of fear elements worked into them, and suspense is a key element. Murder is the center of the story for both shows, and each has its own style of immorality.
|
|
|
They both are gory and awesome fight scenes.
|
|
|
they both involve A LOT of action
and some of the characters are a little similar in a way
the 2 main male leads almost look and sound the same xD
|
|
|
Both houses girls who can kick some serious ass. Obligatory major fanservice as well.
|
|
|
They both have ecchi in it, but high school of the dead is more of a horror-action series.
|
|
|
both animes have one main guy who gets all the other girls aka harem cast while the other guys have no enjoyment in life :D
|
|
|
Action, violence, drama, ecchi, monsters...
|
|
|
Both are violent.
Both have some sexual stuff in them.
Another thing that's similar to High school of the dead is a manga called Kingdom of zombie. Kingdom of zombie and Highscool of the dead both have zombies.
|
|
|
Both pretty super natural. But Kämpfe is more of a magic fighting anime.
Highschool of the Dead is more of a IRL zombie anime.
But the thing that they got both in common is that there's alot of boob grabbing and boob shots if you know what i mean. Alot of girls in both. Also the're worth watching. If you like one of those then i recemmend you check out the other one too!
|
|
|
both have horror type theme
|
|
|
both series have feminine power in the plot.
|
|
|
Who likes ecchi type anime with allot of action will realy like this
|
|
|
(Similar to all Kara no Kyoukai movies)
-Same amount of action
-Romance
-Lots of deaths
-Strong female character
|
|
|
the idea behind it is the same, some kids/teenagers must survive in a changed/another world being targeted by several enemys.
|
|
|
Schoolgirl that killing monsters , blood
|
|
|
Blood gore and violence is in both of these, hellsing has little to no ecchi but they both have a great stroy are short and dark, i'd say both series left me wanting more but still felt like there was closure
If you like one you'll like the other
|
|
|
Fan service! These two series are full of it. Ichiban Ushiro is far more comedic than Highschool of the Dead. But if you enjoyed the ridiculous, over the top boobs and panties in HSotD, the wacky ecchi humor of Ichiban Ushiro may be just right for you.
|
|
|
TOKKO deals with demon creatures that can infect Humans and essentially turn the Humans into "zombie-like" beings which then a special task force has to eliminate in order to close all of the gates through which the demons enter. There is blood, gore, and a decent plot.
|
|
|
Both have a lot of gore and violence. Granted, no zombies and its way less ecchi, but they basically have the same core character plot. Highschool has zombies and Black Lagoon is darker with the romance.
|
|
|
Right when I watched the opening for the first time I thought about how similar the graphics where. Not really the same genre but, it was the first thing that came to my mind
|
|
|
High school kids fighting the undead and demons. If you want blood and gore, these animes will fill your appetite. There is also some similiarities between characters based upon personalities and the formation of the groups in each anime. Though High school of the dead has quite a bit of ecchi and fan service where non is found in Tokyo Majin Gakuen Kenpucho.
|
|
|
Both are great anime with unnecessary fan service shots
|
|
|
The atmosphere reminded me of Bible Black while watching HOtD.
|
|
|
Both of them are similar violence, booby girls, gore, lots of women, supernatural, smexxy x3
|
|
|
Action with pantsu. Also have weak characters.
WARNING: High School of the Dead has zombies and more gore.
|
|
|
Much like High School of the Dead, King of Thorn is a survival horror anime in which a group of dissimilar individuals scuffle their way through a plethora of grotesque creatures.
^_-
|
|
|
Action, sex, and girls with guns. Hotd is more hardcore tho.
|
|
|
Both anime contain blood, ecchi and almost the same plot. Watch 11 eyes, you won't make a mistake.
|
|
|
Both have high levels of violence and sex. Both are well written, acted, and directed. Both are VERY unique and really hard to compare to anything else out there. Strongly Recommended.
|
|
|
Both are violent series set in post apocalyptic Japan and features multiple ED songs for each episodes.
|
|
|
In both these anime's there is a great deal of fighting and action, Highschool of the Dead however is more focused on an Apocalyptic attitude and zombies. When Ben-to is truly brawling over half priced boxed lunch. I also thought the animation and drawing style was similar.
|
|
|
If you liked Horror, blood and such stuff. Both of the shows are worth watching.
|
|
|
For the fancy weaponry and sexual situations.
|
|
|
If you enjoy HSOD then you might have a taste in anime that ruin the soul. Try this.
|
|
|
Boobie action! If u loved HOTD boobies you're going to love and Sekirei Pure Engagement boobies! >_>
|
|
|
Both are very scary animes about a group of people that deals with strange supernatural things and at the same time tries to survive.
|
|
|
they have the same plot like zombie all over the town in here demon all over the world and some people fighting them...
|
|
|
Although HOTD is much more violent, they have a similiar school-setting with undead, also the art is alike.
|
|
|
hm, harem, but not bad ghost, there are zombies~!
|
|
