Both are fantasy stories with plenty of fighting. Both take place in a rather harsh world.
Good anime!Interesting storyline and characters!And many action!
They both have 'Blade' in their English titles. Thus, I'm posting a recommendation. This is MAL. Yes.

For those interested, there ARE similarities between them beyond 'Blade' x2. They share the same composer, for one. Story/character-wise? A tough, roguish ADULT traveling with a much younger, much prettier female companion on a path of vengeance. There's lots of blood & death, naturally.

These introductory adaptations are gateways to the best of seinen manga. They may not impress on their incomplete lonesomes and would piss off anyone looking for a start-to-end anime-onry story, but for those willing to read manga you seriously can't get much/any better. Jaw-dropping artwork is only the beginning (not kidding: these two are contenders for best art). After a grand total of 47 volumes read between the two, I'm one happy wabbit.

Shame that BotI in particular has so few MAL readers compared to Berserk--Berserk having like 5x the MAL listing. They've both been on-going since the 90's and, unlike Berserk, BotI is still good.... and it's ACTUALLY GOING TO END SOON!
