Ao no Exorcist is very similar in storyline to D. Grayman. The main protagonist is a young boy named Okumura. He however is cursed with being the illegitimate son of Satan. He then is rescued along with his twin brother by a society of exorcists. A priest, who Okumura calls father raises him, in hopes that he Okumura will use his powers for good, and not evil. After Okumura's foster father is killed, he pledges himself to train to be an exorcist, and defeat Satan's forces. In D. Grayman the main protagonist is Allen Walker, who is becomes cursed after he turns his dead relative, and father figure into an akuma, by being tricked by the evil Earl. However Allen's relative instead of killing Allen fights the urge, and then curses him. Allen then leaves after destroying his relative to then be found by General Cross, an exorcist of the Black Order. Allen then after a time of apprenticeship goes to the Black Order to be trained and become a full fledged exorcist. So if you like Ao no Exorcist then you will love D. Grayman.
Both about exorcists and devils. Both main characters are in the gray zone.
Both are shounen action series where the protagonists are Exorcists with special powers who fight and defeat demons, and who are regimented in an academy setting with their comrades. Both are battle series with strong biblical themes and dark gothic art.
Same feeling to it. A bit of gothic/dark art and exorcists. Both created from a female manga artist. Also, both have cute main characters!!
* exorcists, demons theme
* both main characters are very special
* action, shounen
* both are very enjoyable!
Both animes are connected with exorcists and demons.Both animes offer great art and story.
Similarities: Exorcist and demons
Both of the main protagonists are Exorcist that fight against demons. Both have dark, evil side within them.
The characters who fight the demons/akumas are called Exorcists. Also, the demons take advantage of the weaknesses of people.
1. Exorcist vs. Demons. Although the point is a bit different.
2. The main character in both of these animes is good, with a dark side.
well if you love demons and love the exorcist that train to combat them and save the world, you are gonan love ao no exorcist but its a little more kid friendly then d. gray man so your mileage may vary
D.Gray-man and Blue Exorcist are action anime that feature exorcists that all have unique powers and are part of an organization that protects the innocent people of their world that don't know about the existence of demons. Both series have main protagonists who are mistreated despite being kindhearted at first but as both series progress they find family and friends within their organizations. The main characters also have father-like figures who passed away but influence them greatly. The only downside is that D.Gray-man is a bit long as a series. If you liked watching one of them you wont regret trying out the other.
Both animes have characters support the main are exorcists and the main characters both have a dark side of them.
both are about exorcists and in both is a main character with a dark side
Both talk about demons and exorcisms but each one have their own vision of it
I really recommend it
They both have this Exorcist vs Demons theme in them. There are Exorcists and Demons + the main characters are kind of similar.
They both are themed after the catholic church (or entity closely resembling) doing battle with demons. Both deal with super powers, and both have a unique main character that brings others close to them. Both are filled with a ton of great characters, though one is darker than the other.
Ao No Exorcist (a.k.a. Blue Exorcist) is the lighter more fun series
D.Gray-man is dark and kind of brutal at times
Having nakama to help you are huge themes in both stories. Overcoming pain and defeating demons are key themes.
Well... it's clear that they're both supernatural shonen genre-wise... but D.Gray-Man seems a bit darker atmosphere wise in my opinion... both are Great series which display an organizational structure against opposing forces (akumas/demons) and the main characters of both series respectively (Allen & Rin) seem to have a daunting character growth ahead of them....
Both involve exterminating demons.
Both involve exorcists and both main characters are gifted with a special powers. (sorry that its short don't have much to say.)
Both animes center around an order of exorcists fighting demons!!
Similarities to genre,publishers.
You can tell from the start that both main protagonist is funny in many ways and when there is action they become serious. Both follow similar stories and its just one of those animes you need to watch(Both).
The MC in both show are Exorcist who wants to save people by defeat their 'father' and fight for the people they care about......similar plot so if you like one you'll probably like the other
Both are an Exorsists stories. And very good stories :)
both exorcist anime and is about adventure and nakama. both have good stories
Medieval Setting revolving around the church.
Dark Fantasy.
Both are about teenagers exorcising demons. Enough said.
Both are really good shounen animes with exorcists

Both are generic shounen series on the surface, but are enjoyable regardless.
They both take place in a school dedicated to defeating the supernatural and both stories revolve around the students, mostly.
The main characters also both deal with being demonic
Both Anime styles are the king you would find in those nice child friendly movies you might watch for Halloween. They have a wide cast of characters and things get crazy as the plot progresses.
Ao no Exorcist - a young man who finds him self thrust into a world of demons and exorcist attending a school to learn to control his ability's to defeat demons and eventually satan...
Soul Eater- fallowing a couple who are teamed up to defeat demons and witches as part of their school assignments they are sent after deams and train to become stronger
What to say? Stories are mainly different, but overall they still share some mentionable point:
• well, let's start saying that they both are famous shonen that share the same action, fantasy, supernatural genres
• both evolve around special schools/academy who teach our characters how to use their powers
• both have a various number of characters, be it protagonists or villains, with strong and likeable personalities
• both stories deal with defeating the evil, in SE are the witches and the Kishin (sort of demon), while in AnE is represented by the ultimate evil: Satan
• overall both are enjoyable series but there's one last thing to mention. Both anime end up having a "filler ending", or better say: they are concluded with something definitely not canon to the story of the manga. Yes i think you should be warned about this, as it's quite an important thing when it comes to anime adaptations.
That said, i think if you liked one of those you might probably like the other as well!
Both animes have student studing in a big academy to fight demons.
In soul eater they are demon hunter. In Ao no Exorcist they are demon exorcists and they go out slaying demons with teacher supervision sometimes, just like in Soul Eater.
The stories are very similar except in Ao no exorcist they have their own weapons, unlike in soul eater where they had the meister and "weapons" which were actually another person.
They both have a dude that thinks hes all that. They both have similar character. They are both about kids hunting evil and go to a school to learn how.
The art is very similar!
Both are exceptionally good;
and they both include an academy and demons! :o
the op. song/art has the same style as soul eater also the story is very similar .. both anime are GREAT !
The both animes involve two worlds in which the characters are related to. Te looks of the characters are also similar. In they both share the same geners.
Honestly, when I first started watching Ao no Exorcist, I felt it screamed Soul Eater. I mean, not only are the art styles similar, but Rin (the protagonist) reminded me greatly of Soul. Even then, as you continue to move forward through the series, you'll be able to make more and more comparisons. For instance, Faust is a lot like Lord Death, having that same wackiness.
There are a lot of other similarities, like similar humor and such. But regardless, you should take the time to watch this.
Similar animation, similar setting
Ao no Exorcist and Soul Eater are action anime that have a "let's team-up and save the world" feel to them. They both take place in a special special academy, which trains young teenagers to become fighters that stand against Satan and his henchmen in Ao no Exorcist, and demons in Soul Eater. The characters in both series are simply AMAZING, each having their own unique look, personality and fighting style. Both series also feature superb animation mixed with amazing action sequences that will make the viewer beg for more after each fight. If you are a shounen anime fan and you liked watching one of them you shouldn't hesitate to try out the other.
Both deal with a group of students in training to become great fighters in the war against demons/the supernatural. They have intense plot lines but are injected with enough humor to keep it from being too serious. However, the drawing style for Ao No Exorcist is a bit more wispy and edgy than for Soul Eater which uses a more cartoony style.
Both series features supernatural themes in a supernatural world where the main characters learn new skills. They are considered shounen and often or not, their battles incorporates such themes.
Both series has a lot of drama, comedy, and action.
Both series' main male protagonist also have similar personalities.
Both series also has powerful antagonists that puts not only the main characters and their friends at risk but the world as well.
Ao no Exorcit is basically poor man's soul eater. If you want to watch interesting fights and memorable characters, watch this instead.
Both anime involve demons/demon slaying, and both involve an academy
Both are shounens that in both the group of main Charcthers are in a school that teaches about defeating their enemies(Which is demons in blue exorcist and demons/witches/and other Halloween related things In soul eater)
Soul Eater and Ao no Exorcist are alike because both deal with gifted kids who to a school that teaches them how to fight things such as demons. Both have humor and main protagonists that like to slack off.

If you're looking for a series about brotherhood, then both series would have to be the best recommendation as both tell a tale of the bonds 2 brothers have and the trials they go through. Whilst both series may be of different plots, what they both share is the highly-packed action and spectacular graphics.
Even though it's a bit too early to tell, the relationship between Rin and his brother Yukio seems to be a major theme of "Ao no Exorcist," as is the importance of Ed and Al's bond in "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood."
The mood and tone of the animes are similar. I loved them both because they have serious plots ( though totally different) and they have comedic elements in them also. There is a show of brotherhood in both of them also~ but basically they both have the same feel to it all~
Both shows are about two brothers and their relationship as they struggle to accomplish their goal.
Although their storylines are quite different, Ao No Exorcist and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood have similar themes of brotherhood and semi-scientific special abilities. I found that the governmental structure and the moral intricacies were explored in similar ways, encouraging the viewer to question their understanding of these elements.
-Similar art
-Story about two brothers
-Their mother is dead
-Their father isn't human
-Both are really enjoyable and worth watching
The main protagonist's in my opinion are very similar.
They both are centered around brothers.
They are both action-packed, and the drawings are similar.

the similar are the charaters personalitys
i would have to say that Naruto and Rin are alike they are some person who likes to help others, and let them understand peoples feelings, Naruto and Rin know when people are being hurt or know that when they need someone, they know that they have to be the one to be there. Like Naruto helping Gaara, Naruto new that Gaara was like him, and the same thing went as Rin wanted to stop Ryuji making the same mistake as what he did to his own father. Everyone didn't like them, everyone knew that he had a demon in side of Naruto, and everyone called Rin a demon because he act like one.
But i also think that Rin is like Gaara too, because people keeps calling them a demon. And that Father Fujimoto is like Naruto too because he understand Rin and Rin knows that he under stand him.
so i would say that it's equal to equal to each character
Naruto is like Rin and Fujimoto
and Rin is like Naruto and Gaara
Things that made Ao No Exorcist "the same" as Naruto:
- There a students that is styding on a school for becoming something
- They are on missions outside and need to survive without the teacher (tho, that episode was very exciting!)
- They can make animals and things come and help them only by saying special formula or something.
- They can bite their fingers and use their blood to make the things they get from the formula to be stronger.
- The story start's also about a boy that is borned demon and got a horrible childhood.
- The demon boy also lose his control over his demon powers, but ends with mastering it in the end.
- The boys was also found outside alone when they were babies and somebody took them home. (I'm not going to say anything more about that, because that is a very interesting story!)
- The demon boy is also in a class where he is fighting with another boy and taking about who is best etc..
- There is a old/young/good looking lady that got big boobs in both of the series.....
- The mine teacher in both series are acting the same to the mine character (Rin and Naruto)
- They both get flames when they using their power, only that the colour is different.
Now I can't think of anything more, but yea...
Both shounen. Both have action. Both have the main character treated as bakemono (Monsters) Both have academy.
Differences are between Naruto and Ao no Exorcist: Ninjas/ exorcism. 220 episodes/ 25 episodes.
Both main characters have born with powers from Evil that they will have to master in order to save the World from destruction and avoid their friends to get hurt by that same power.
Both protagonists are loud mouth idiots that are shunned by their peers because they're cursed with awesome and they both strive to become the best despite their stupidity and naivety.
They have the same protagonists who have a darker side which they initially hated but later on accepted. Both try to show others that what they really are is not the ONLY thing that defines them.
both main characters were rejected as kids by their community and also have amazing great hidden power

Both have protagonists whose appearance changes during fight scenes and both include demons (yokai) and exorcists.
Both series features a main character where they try to hide their real self from their classmates. There is the supernatural element in the story as well as drama, comedy, and action.
Additionally, in both series, the world contains the supernatural involving demons where the main protagonist fights with the help of his friends. They also learn the dark past of other secrets as episodes progresses and resolves ways to stop their adversaries.
Both have a powerful demon living as human, which has to hide his demon appearance when certain conditions are met.
Both of these anime have main characters who turn out to be demons.
Both are shounen anime with a non-confident MC
Both Mc gain confidence as the series goes on
Nurarihyon and Exorcist both take the approach of making the characters a feared person
Nurarihyon-The Lord of Pandemonium, Exorcist-Satan's Child
Both characters are interested in being friends with humans
As both of them revolve around demons (yokai) and the main character are both in their teens so they can both be related with each other in that sense. They both have their funny moments and the two main characters Rin and Riuko both fight with a katana.

The main character is the incarnation of the greatest evil; however he only wants to be a good guy. Both stories have funny and serious moments (less in Daimaou). As far as I know, there will be an academy atmosphere which is also common in them.
Similarities:
Both muchacho (lead male characters) were part of the up most demon hierarchy.
Both have school, supernatural, action and magic genre.
Both muchachos were orphans and grew up in an orphanage.
Both muchachos were extremely powerful.
And both muchachos have a male sidekick.
Dissimilarities:
In AE the muchacho is an asshole, while in IUD the muchacho is a gentelman.
The muchacho in AE exhibits physical signs of being a demon, while in IUD the muchacho looks whole human.
The muchacho in AE has a sword than contains his entire powers, however, he still has a knack for trouble, while in IUD the muchacho already has his in a the form of "Mana" he has trouble controlling his powers thus always gets him into a lot of awkward situations.
The muchacho in AE is lazy and doesn't do well with his studies, while in IUD the muchacho is a top student.
IUD has an extra ecchi, harem and romance as it's extra genre, while AE is a full supernatural genre.
The way it starts is similar because they both are unaware of their special powers and they are both related to something demon-like plus they're both veryyy amazing!!
The main character is the incarnation of the greatest evil; however he only wants to be a good guy. Both stories have funny and serious moments (less in Daimaou). As far as I know, there will be an academy atmosphere which is also common in them.
The main protagonists struggle against a world that curse their innately evil powers despite their best attempts at being good.
They are indeed very similar in a number of ways. Both are some how the carrier of the greatest evil while still heavily trying to deny it at first but later on still make the most out of it.

Both of these Anime have fighting scenes, sword play and monsters that need to be taken care of. There is also the theme of hell, less played up in Bleach. One of the major themes is protecting others, and another is being accepted for who you are.
The main boy characters started fighting when they were 15yrs old, both weild a sword and have to train to use their powers, both boys have friends with their own special abilities and have one friend that was afraid of them at first but got used to them, both boys want to get stronger to protect people although in Ao no Exorcist, Rin wants to get revenge on a powerful demon too....both Rin (Ao no exorcist) and Ichigo (Bleach) have the same personalities (well Ichigo has gotten older now and maturer but at the beginning of Bleach, he acts and sounds like Rin lol) Both Series have an adult man that knows something in each episode, like in Bleach its Urahara, a former Soul Reaper n in Ao no Exorcist its the Chancilor of the High school, a demon thats also an Exorcist.
Ao no Exorcist and Bleach are action series in which both main protagonists are thrust into supernatural worlds where they both gain powers that they never thought they'd acquire to defend the world from demons or hollows that normal people can't see. And ultimately, both of them struggle with their identities because of how these powers change them. Both series feature a lot of swordplay and plenty of unique and cool characters so you're bound to relate to at least one of them in some way. It's safe to say that, if you enjoyed watching Ao no Exorcist, you will most likely enjoy Bleach, and vice versa.
Hollow- Demon
both are shounen with fighting scenes.
both of them are with some dramatic scenes.
Both Bleach and Ao no Exorcist have male protagonists trying to overcome a major obstacle to protect, and they both have to get stronger. Both are really great animes.

Rei looks a little bit like Rin and the blue flames.
They both have the action, Shounen and Supernatrual genres.
Rei and Rin have the same seiyuu.
>Both revolves protagonist using blue flame.
>The flames are powers of evil, Satan Flame for Ao no Exorcist
>Protagonist has the same seiyuu, Rin and Rei
the main character, rei ogami, has the same power as rin okumura [also the initials, RO and the voice actor], although the plot differs a lot, the feel of the anime is same.
the genre also aligns with each other being supernatural, shounen and action.
Both of the main characters use blue flames as their main weapon—not to mention a katana as well.

Both series are about a pair of brothers fighting against demons. The older brother Dean is more the action kind of guy, attack first, ask questions later, which is like Rin. Sam the younger brother is the more reserved thinking brother. Sam also is very smart and tends to use research and intelligence against enemies rather than brute strength like Dean (though they both kick some serious ass regardless). This is quite a bit like Yukio. In Supernatural one brother also shares a strong connection to demons and Lucifer (Satan) in particular (not going to give away which one). The other brother often tells his demonically inclined brother that he shouldn't use demon powers and that they'll corrupt him (sound familiar?).
In particular there's actually a scene in episode 24 of Ao no Exorcist (spoilers if you haven't watched it all yet) where Yukio is possessed by Satan and when Rin comes to save him Satan starts beating the crap out of Rin but Rin refuses to harm Yukio and believes his younger brother has to be in there still and can hear him and overcome Satan. Though the Supernatural anime has yet to get that far in the story yet, in the original tv series of the same name there's a scene remarkably similar to this one in Ao no Exorcist. BTW Supernatural came first and is a big hit in Japan which actually lead to the anime series being made (a first of it's kind, an anime adaptation of an American live action tv series) so I've actually wondered a few times if they didn't base that scene on the scene from Supernatural.
Anyways if you like series that follow brothers and deal with the supernatural then this is definitely one to try.
two brothers (twins in Ao no Exorcist, just brothers in Supernatural) fighting against supernatural powers, demons and main villain - Satan (Lucifer) and one of the brothers is a container for Satan (Lucifer). In Ao no Exorcist are exorcist, when in Supernatural we have hunters. in both demons can posess human body and when thay are "kicked out" of it, they come out as a black smoke from the mouth.
Both stories are focused on two brothers, who fights against demons and other supernatural beings. Main goal is to destroy devil because of whom they have lost somebody precious. Relationships between brothers are pretty similar as well. They argue all the time, but despite that they are very protective of each other. Both anime are full of action and humor, but Ao no Exorcist is more shounen like while Supernatural has a lot of violence.
2 brother who hunt supernatural beings
a father who teaches them to do so
they share much more things, but i would be a big spoiler for supernatural (google sam + devil if you want to know)

I'm an addict for series that follow a pair of brothers. For me Ao no Exorcist and FMA fall in the same category. Hot headed older brother, check. Reasonable, level headed younger brother, check. Supernatural elements, check. You could basically exchange the Exorcists for Alchemists, alchemy for magic, and homunculi for demons and have a pretty close to the same type of story. And did I mention the brothers and lots of brotherly love, angst, family bonding moments in both? I've made my point. Though not like anyone whose watched Ao no Exorcist will have not watch FMA. Seriously if you haven't you really shouldn't call yourself an anime fan. AnE though good the anime will never come close to comparing to either series of FMA.
both shonen, awesome animes, the two of them feature brothers who have certain goals plus the younger brother is a bit more mature than the older brother kinda.
Well this is not obvious but the sensation I had watching ao no exorcist reminds me of Fullmetal alchemist. The story of 2 brothers, one got power and is reclkess, the other one is strong and wiser. they join an organisation that is full of rules and will fight with AND against it. The story really is differents but there is a little something that is alike, don't know why but i'm sure if you liked FMA, you'll definitely like ao no exorcist.
both are shounen
both revolve around brothers

Both series are about demons and exorcists who try to vanquish them, with both series starring a lone demon who works for good. Both have spectacular graphics and fluid animation, and a story that's worth being in your list if your into the supernatural/demon genre.
Both talk about a fight agains a powerful demon. ( Satan in Ao no Exorcist and Aion in Chrono Crusade). There are in both an organization which fight against a lot of of demons. True Cross Academy Exorcist School in Ao No Exorcist; and Order of Magdelene in Chrono Crusade.
The main characters are demons who fight agains demons to protect humans.
Both have comedy, drama and action.
Both series involves the theme of exorcists fighting against forces of supernatural such as demons and devils.
Both series also have contain drama, comedy, and action.
Both series also have a similar feeling and style that brings entertainment to you.
Both have comedy and the concept of exorcism and exorcists. Also, i like how both anime dont go in depth with romance. Lots of action with a twist of humor, if you like Chrono Crusade or Ao no exorcist, you'll love the other!

I just feel that the main character has a similar situation. Being half human and half demon, the main character doesn't belong to either side. But they chose the human side and decided to get stronger in order to protect them.
Both of these series have half breeds of demons who rebel against the idea of following the demon ways, so to speak. One uses the Japanese lore, while the other focuses on using European lore. The main male characters share very simular personailties, in the fact they act rough, but deep down, they have a caring human heart.
Demons and Awesome story line :)
Both main characters are Half Demon and Human
Wield's a sword, and if it's gone bad things happen
Discriminated when they were little, yet raised as a child
Both use their head very little

The same:
Situation where the protagonists are up against the church where they also belong.
Both MCs have special abilities.
Both have the supernatural and action.
Not the same:
One has an extra school genre, while the other has adventure as its extra genre.
One MC was a demon, while the other is a supernatural being.

Both are typical highschool shounen shows with supernatural (aka devil/demon) elements, with the main difference being that Ao no Exorcist doesn't have the enormous amount of fan service.
In both shows the loser/outcast/main protagonist gets involved with these supernatural elements and has to fight and train with all his might to win the inevitable battle at the end to safe the ones he loves.
Typical, but very enjoyable.
Both shows have a strong base in the battle taking place between heaven and hell. They each have good action and a simple yet enjoyable story. Don't go in expecting anything to deep, but it will be a fun watch nonetheless.
Both are about a boy who one day finds out about how his world has its secrets and by secrets they find out that demons are real and they're have to fight and kill the rouge ones.In Ao no Exorcist,the MC chooses to fight them because he feels he needs to prove that his bad bloodline doesn't make him a bad person while in Highschool DxD the MC is revived by a demon and has no choice in the matter so he has to learn to fight in order to survive.Ao No Exorcist is more of a Shounen while Highschool DxD is a Ecchi/romance/action

-main character is cute

-church themed
Both pretty much church themed
Chars working on being Exorcists/Priests to fight off monsters/demons

Similar main character personality and has action with side comedy
This is similar to To Aru Majutsu No Index because, it has a sort of supernatural feel
and also it has something to do with church.

both the main characters are monsters.
both have people hunting for their blood.
both select to be human .
both have many foe.
both want to Protect their friends.
both of their parents are kind.
blood-c and ao no exorcist are similar because both main characters have a monster side and both use a katana as a weapon. and contain weird looking monsters that the main character must slay even though they are like the same being

Felt the smiliarity directly when I watched the first episode of Ao no Exorcist.
Mostly the combinations of demons/torches/Guzes no tomogaras and exorcist/flame hazes. Thought in Ao no Exorcist there misses a opposite-gender main character but that probably will be filled up by Rin's brother Yukio.
Conclusion: Both have a mysterious story that you have to accept to continue and lots of action and a slight touch of comedy.
-Very action packed
-Both have some romance involved
|
|
|
Demons , action , fantasy > if you like it , you will like the other
In both, the main protagonist is the offspring of a demon and a human, and has demon-like powers/qualities that make him practically invincible compared to the humans around him. Both involve the protagonists hunting down/slaying/fighting/etc. demons alone or with the help of the supporting cast.

Because its unique and i love the plot/story! I don't even know how to explain my excitement to you, because this anime, IS A MUST. If you're an otaku, then you must definitely watch this, but if you watched this already then read the manga, there's a lot of twists and cliffhangers though, and you have to wait for it to update and stuffs like that, but the best part is, ITS WORTH IT.
Both protagonists have a dark side to them, both being "Demons" in their own ways.
Also, both of them have to keep their true identity a secret from their close ones.

Both the main characters are almost very similar, they have determination to become one of the best and strongest person there is. In both series they possess unbelievable strength and power already or later on. They both also are similar 'cause they have a path of solitude and basically not wanting to rely on others that much. Another aspect about both series is that they both have a lot of Dram since the main characters have at least a lost a loved one. Both are also really good Shounen and this one is mostly Seinen 'cause there's a lot of action.
The protagonists of each series have to deal with a great loss which inspires them to become stronger so they may defeat a powerful entity. Both series' share similar themes and atmosphere as the heroes struggle to prove their worth and accomplish their goal.

Both Rin and Rikuo are part demon and have powers which they use to fight and protect their friends. But both of them are somewhat reluctant to use their powers at times.
Both animes are Shounen with lots of awesome action and fights!
Both characters have something to do with demons and they both have powers sleeping inside them that they can use only when certain conditions are meet, in Ao no Exorcist Rin gets his powers when he draws his sword, in Nurarihyon, Rikuo can only transform at night

Both have a crazy cast of characters along with similar anime styles. There is also nice amounts of humor built in and sometimes the plot line does get series.
both main characters are cute, idiotic, loud, crazy, and strong

While the characters and plot aren't all that similar, I found them to both have very good action, and a somewhat interesting plot (Although DTB's is better). They both had a very similar feeling for me.
|
|
|
Both use Blue Fire as a power
|
|
|
They both heavily involve supernatural elements (Exorcist = demons; Blood+ = vampires) and a main character who is darkly connected to those very forces that he/she fights. Both series are quite fast-paced and exciting, and the first episode or two of either should suffice to draw you in.
|
|
|
-Both exciting & great anime.
-Both main character in the beginning of the anime realized that they had powers deep inside of them
-Both horrible past
-Both same goal; lost all of their love ones due to an evil enemy and swore to get revenge on them.
|
|
|
The main protagonists struggle against a world that curse their innately evil powers despite their best attempts at being good.
|
|
|
Although Ao no exorcist isn't comedy, it has some funny scenes with a good character development in a universe with humans and demons, as well as Hataraku Maou-sama!;
Both have good fight scenes and characters with supernatural powers;
Both have some demons that are trying to conquer the land of humans;
Rin and Maou have similar personality;
The art is similar.
|
|
|
Both are action/comedy anime that involve magic use for exorcisms.
|
|
|
both are bishonen action shows, similar characters, many of them have Mu's eyebrows.
|
|
|
Both have a Overpowered Main Protoganist. and magic/fantasy/action genre
Also both of them take place in a school.
Sorry for the LowQuality Recommendation but i didn't had much time ^^.
See for yourself if you like it.
|
|
|
Both main characters have unice powers and both are ending up in special schools to train them up.
|
|
|
these animes are very similar in genra wise there both two young boys who set out to make a goal and reach there dream they are also both carless leader types which makes both aanime have the same sence of comedy so if you like ao no exorcist then i would recommend one piece
|
|
|
Both of these series starts off as tragedy stories after a startling revelation is made.
From there, the main character tries to become someone they never thought to be and get justice. Along the way, both characters meets others whom they bond but also conflicts with.
In both of these anime(s), there is action, violence, and drama. There is also comedy (less so in Zetman), and even very tiny hints of romance.
|
|
|
In both series the main characters hunt people similiar to them. Alucard it's a vampire from an anti-vampire organization(Hellsing) and in Ao no Exorcist we've the son of Satan(Okumura, Rin) becoming an exorcist.
|
|
|
Both Bakemonogatari and Ao no Exorcist has the same:
• Art Style - Produced by Aniplex.
• Genre - Both have elements of Supernatural conventions.. Although Bakemonogatari is more aligned to a horror genre unlike Ao no Exorcist which is more on the shounen side.
• Narrative - Both give out the same atmosphere. Both Protagonist are alot dominant compared to other characters. Ao no Exorcist Son of Satan and Bakemonogatari Vampire.
|
|
|
-A character that wants to become stronger to protect others and is comedic (Rin and Yoshimori) paired with a serious, studious character that keeps the other in check (Yukio and Tokine)
-Fighting demons or ayakashi
-Yoshimori (Kekkaishi) and Rin (Ao no Exorcist) are given a power at first that they deny, and have immense, natural talent
-The same sense of adventure and reckless strength
|
|
|
Similar styles, similar quirky humor. The story line have a light side to them but also a darker side.
|
|
|
The similarity between these two is the idea of purifying / exorcising evil. They are not really similar otherwise, they are more like paralel series, they are ahout exterminating evil in 2 different cultures. Shounen Onmyoujy deals with Asian beliefs (youkai, shikigami, etc), while Ao no Exorcist deals with more like European beliefs (satan, devils, familiars).
|
|
|
The feel about series is similar, both are quite dark, but feature some comedy. Also, again some group of humans vs. demons, special powers, hell gates (or rather equivalents), etc.
|
|
|
Both Anime's got fantasy and both male characters uses a sword to fight with.
|
|
|
The exorsists have special privlages, getting to go wherever they want to with the keys. The hunters license is like a passport to anywhere. Each group goes on adventures within their group and they form friendships, despite dark adventures.
|
|
|
There is a wide cast of characters and similar humor. The art styles are also similar and yet different in their own ways.
|
|
|
The main characters are sort of similar, in that both use flames and can't control it at first.
|
|
|
The main characters have special powers and have to fight to survive while leaving their abilities unknown to the rest of the world.
|
|
|
Both of these shows deal with the power that you have and dealing with it in constructive manners. Both of these shows are also riddled through with a great deal of humor that comes across wonderfully.
|
|
|
I think Rin and Ueki are a lot alike. They're both kind of idiotic and there is a lot more to them than meets the eye (without inserting any spoilers)
|
|
|
I'm surprised no-one has put these two down for recommendations yet.
Both similar types of drawings.
Both supernatural (Ao no Exorcist - Demons, DRRR! - not fully centred on supernatural, but a big majority of it is based on myths/legends/demons).
Both similar genres - action, comedy, drama-ish, etc.
Both a very enjoyable watch.
Although I would say that DRRR! is more complex (but still easy to understand), while Ao no Excorcist has a much more simple story line.

ao no exorcist--- demons
natsume yuujinchou--- yokais
|
|
|
~both shounen
~deals with purifying/exorcising the possessed ones
~both protagonists uses gun and sword
|
|
|
Kokuchi are possesing human bodies and powering them up in Monochrome Factor, as demons are doing that to people in Ao no Exorcist....It seems similar. xD
|
|
|
majutsushi ~magicians, cool fights and mistery. nyan!
|
|
|
In both the anime are little invisible flying demons, and both the protagonists are the son of a important demon.
|
|
|
Monsters.
An epic character who uses guns.
(both supernatural and action, though Hellsing Ultimate is infinitely more violent =P)
Need I say more?
|
|
|
Both series are about a pair of supernatural siblings who fight demons. Both fight as a duo wielding swords and guns to defeat demons.
|
|
|
The are both about guys who aren't very good at hiding their 'secret' powers.
|
|
|
Both are packed with action but also light humour in between. They aren't too deep but oh so enjoyable! And they leave you with a positive feeling after you watch them.
I also found that the two main characters resemble each other greatly.
|
|
|
Both about Exorcist
Both main characters have a katana as a weapon
Both side characters have different and unique weapons
