I'm guessing people have made this comparison before but Muzan really reminds me of Meruem for some reason, mostly aesthetically but also Muruem when freshly hatched even seems similar personality wise.
The dedication and intense training it takes to become both a Hunter and a Demon Slayer is similar.
Although in HxH they're not demons they also face a lot of inhuman enemies.

Two exciting and violent battle shounen anime about a group of young protagonists that have to face many brutal challenges, they have to constantly fight and deal with much much stronger opponents. Both shows have excellent production values with exciting fight scenes.

-Both animes have overall beautiful and riveting soundtracks, which are immensely crucial to making their scenes as impactful as it is. While they hold different styles, it would be difficult to prefer one over the other. The quality of the music are on par.

Although this show is fairly new, even the Hunter x Hunter mangaka (Togashi) recommended reading the Kimetsu no Yaiba manga series. The anime adaptation has been great so far and as a huge fan of HxH, I've enjoyed it.
The MCs in both of these anime have the same personality, They are very nice and lovable just like their friends. The fighting scenes are really awesome and the adventures of the characters are really cool. Both anime have such good characters, it's hard to find alot of characters that you'll hate!
The main character is incredibly similar to Gon
Awesome action scenes
Big family aspect
Awesome side characters
