Ajin

Both are gore animes and have a lot of interesting characters. Each one of them have a huge personality and the plots are very catchy. Worth a try! 

Both stories have similar main characters that become hardened through their experiences. Kaneki is a ghoul, and Kei is an Ajin. Both of them became their respective species by deadly experiences. Ghouls possess superhuman strength, can only ingest humans, and have a kagune. Ajin are immortal, and they can form a black humanoid being that they can control. 

Ajin is the non-mainstream version of Tokyo Ghoul. 

Both have an MC become a ghoul or an Ajin. Both MC used to be human and try to deny becoming what they have come Both involve the MC fighting against other ghouls or Ajin Both have the MC being hated by humanity Both have a society of ghouls or Ajin Both have ghouls and Ajin being both almost or completely immortal 

-Both have an MC that is dragged into an unknown 'world' to them -Neither one did anything wrong to deserve what they're put through -Both MCs become the ones hunted by humans because of a deadly accident -Organization vs Monsters The main difference: The MC in Ajin is a lot more clear-headed and is much more mentally and emotionally stronger, as opposed to the one from Tokyo Ghoul, who is less courageous and gives in to situations a bit easier. 

Both main characters, who seem like innocent and kind teenage boys, are forced to hide from society because of their "monster" side. They both have a faithful, blonde-haired best friend. Both anime are of similar genres - psychological, action, supernatural.  

Dark world where humans and and "monsters" live in the same society. ( Ajin (demi-humans) and ghouls). Both protagonists are living normal life, studying in school when accident happens and they find out that they're not humans anymore. Both main characters are being hunted by the police forces and special ops. Both MC's experience a lot of pain and are subjects of experiments and insane abuse. Lots of action, violence, gore, fight between humanity and ajin/ghouls. Psychological, questioning morals of what's good and bad/right or wrong, and humanity. Good soundtracks 

Both characters have to deal with adapting to an entirely new way of living. Going from seemingly normal, to not human.  

Both anime have humans and non-humans. Both have a character that struggles with their specie. And they have a friend to help them. They both have a group of people ruining the specie's life. 

- Both protagonists become superhuman and have to adapt to a new lifestyle - Both protagonists have that one friend who always tries to help them and pull them out of trouble (they also look-a-like) - Both shows include supernatural beings - Both shows include very strong police force 

Both main characters are outlaws. Both are chased. Style of plot is similar but instead of ghouls are ajins.  

A constant shocking psychological game comes to mind of our protagonists in his discovery: stop human being. We can also see the strong conflict for his big difference, ghoul / ajin against humans, a large elite in search of these phenomena and our protagonists of one of these monsters. You will find peace again, that when it was considered human? 

- MC have almost identical reveals or changes - Something happens to MC later which makes op realize his fate (....Any guesses?) - Story is very similar except - Properties of the titular entity/black particle-y thing are similar to ghouls. There are few big dissimilarities though - Blonde headstrong best friend who makes up for MC's lack of clear mind - Worst Mother Ever perhaps????? If you read TG Manga and if anime followed the plot perfectly then it would have been something similar to this minus the foreshadowing. 

If you like the themes in Tokyo Ghoul, you'll really want to watch this anime. I was sucked in right from the beginning. We all love a good opening song. It gives us the feel of the anime and gets us pumped. Everyone that has watched Tokyo Ghoul knows that opening just with the first sung note. So just like Tokyo Ghoul, Ajin has a very catchy, interesting opening song that gives you a feeling of anticipation and excitement. It's like that feeling of "yes, I want to see what this anime is about because this song is great!" The main character in Ajin is relatable in his own way. It seems that it's normal to feel apathetic and uncaring because some of us lack the social cues necessary to be an empathetic person. The idea of being "cold and calculating" has become a normal thing in society. So, it's easy to feel like you can relate to the main character as he struggles with the lack of empathy many humans have. Tokyo Ghoul, as well, has a main character that one can relate to. However, on an emotional level he is vastly different from Ajin's main character. He is an extremely empathetic/sympathetic individual that fights with the desire to eat flesh until he is faced with a terrible experience that leads him onto a darker path. Which is the opposite for Ajin's main character. Kei, in Ajin, begins as nearly emotionless to an individual trying desperately to care for other human beings after experiencing unspeakable horrors. He goes from being a "jerk" as his sister calls him, to an individual that wants so badly to be compassionate and loving. The action in both anime is amazing. There's never really a dull moment. It's really neat to see other worldly creatures go into hand to hand combat. And the fact that many characters in Ajin do not stay dead adds an interesting element into the mix. And finally, one of the main reasons I love these anime is the reoccurring theme of moral ambiguity. There are horrible, inhumane things done to human-like creatures, Ajin and Ghouls alike. There is prejudice against the unknown. And let's be honest, these are things we face in the real world. Society has a habit of fearing the unknown and judging people that are seen as "different". So, we find ourselves caught up in this ethical debate: should they die or live (Ghoul, Ajin, and humans alike). We want to fight against those wronging the main character but also struggle internally with whether it is right or wrong to actually kill a human being no matter how terrible they are. All in all, this is an intriguing anime. I love these kind of dark, thought provoking anime. So if you're in the mood to question your morals, these anime are very good for that kind of thing.  read more 

Both are anime with psychological elements, the main character was previously human and then changed into a form despised for society. 

Both are slight deviations on basically the same story. 

Kei : Kaneki Kaito : Hide Satou : Yoshimura Tosaki : Arima 

the protagonist suddenly discover they are not human similar concept of government wanting to hunt them down they have a blonde loyal best friend sato-san is like eto and likes to cause havoc on the city for fun 

These two are very alike: -Both MC's look alike -Both MC's are weak at first -Both MC's find out their a ghoul/ajin and is hard to accept it -Ghouls and Ajins are alike in how they are not accepted in society -Some of the characters are alike Kaneki/Kei Hide/Kaito Akihiro/Satou Arima/Tosaki 

-Both of them have a main character who doesn't want to be this other species, but has no choice but to be it -Both have the main characters mature over the series -Both of them take place in a modern society -In both, the main character has a friend who tries to help him  

They both live in a world, where another specie that looks like a human, but has supernatural powers and doesn't die that easily. Both main characters are going through a rapidly change, from being in the "human world" to have to get to know the "other world". Both are very thrilling 

- Both the main character is somebody with strange powers that make him an outcast. - Both involves the same situation where the guy who is one of the hunted finds himself in a condition where he has to fight to survive. - Both speaks about an human that become "non-human" and have to live in a world that try to kill him. - The main characters of both anime become a being/monster and even though at first they are scared and confused, they overcome it and become pretty badass. - Both are also action-packed and, while I liked Ajin more than Tokyo Ghoul in terms of Action ,fans of one will enjoy the other. read more 

they're hunting on Ajin's in ajin, and they're hunting on ghouls in tokyo ghoul. nagai Kei (Ajin) looks like kaneki (tokyo ghoul) with black hair. 

The struggle among human beings and "monsters" (ghoul or ajin). Principal characters dealing with a "non-sense" -at first, at least, for them– new identity, running away from danger (actually a prosecution of those who profess a lack of knowledge and fear of what is new) . Both animes depict a steady race for survival and an internal dialogue about what it means to be human.  

It has a great plot,In both animes the main character is a boy which suddenly gets his humanity taken away. Both main characters are solitaires Ajin main character is really intelligent and Cold-hearted .The anime fights look a little more realistic in Ajin,and they're not so overpowered has in Tokyo Ghoul. The animation its kind a weird comparing to other animes but it does totally worth watching it. 

In both there feared creatures for humanity, In both the protagonist is very scary but then turns serious. A really good anime Ajin 

Lots of blood, lots of drama Not humanlike "people" that are seen as monsters Good antagonists interesting main character and main focus on the main characters methods (though to be warned the mains in these are completely different) Awesome fights 

Both main characters have to afront the idea that they aren't humans. They want to have peace in their lifes. They are going to try to find a way to live a normal life. The difference between the main characters is that nagai (AJIN) is more manly than kaneki (TOKYO GHOUL). 

Both have dark themes and are centred around the protagonist becoming something inhuman. There are a lot of other parallels, such as side characters acting similarly (strong female side character and a human best friend), but Ajin manages to hold its own as a series. It arguably does a lot of things better than Tokyo Ghoul, though many overlook its potential as a story and series for its unique animation, but the CGI in Ajin is high quality, and is among the top uses of CGI I've ever seen in anime. 

These series are very similar. If you loved Tokyo Ghoul, I'm sure you'll love Ajin. Both series have "Demi-Human" or Demonic Creatures in them, thus keeping a relatively dark atmosphere.This really gives both anime's good tones. The MC's both share physical and mental traits as well. Which makes it that much better to recommend. The dark/deep story's really make the stories that much better. Enough talk, go check out another great series, Ajin. 

In Ajin and Tokyo Ghoul both protagonists are forced into a lifestyle where they become mutants. In Tokyo Ghoul, Ghouls are born with a weapon which they can activate at will, this works as a defensive weapon which protects them from their enemies and helps hunt. While in Ajin they're immortal beings whom can also control a weapon, this one is not connected with the user of the weapon and is used as an offensive weapon. Ajin focuses on survival of a single person while Tokyo Ghoul on character development and fighting for eachother. 

- similar genre: action, mystery, horror, supernatural, seinen - both are about creatures who hostile with humans 

Strikingly similar plots and characters. The MC learns he's inhuman and he struggles with his new identity. Both undergo horrific torture that forces them to become different people, and both shows show the same tension and mistrust between humans and the ghouls/ajins in their worlds 

Both are about a group of people that are feared and hunted by society. The main character is thrown into a life changing situation between the feared species and the humans. Both have a a best friend that they depend on.  

both series focus on main characters who both become something non-human, that they are afraid of/told to fear, and looked down upon by society, and both want to do something about it. the only difference is that kei nagai in "ajin" was *born* an ajin, while ken kaneki in "tokyo ghoul" *becomes* a ghoul by ghoul-organ transplantation. both heavily discuss the idea of humanity as a whole and both characters' lives are turned around because of their newfound lives. both characters are both kinda unreliable characters but definitely anti-heroes. the only real difference between both series is that tokyo ghoul focuses more on how far it takes for the innocent to break, while ajin asks the question: what would you do if you were tortured for being who you are? and what makes, or qualifies, us as human? overall, they both focus on humanity and what makes us human, as well as what drives us to the point of breaking. if you like psychological thrillers that will have you on the edge of your seats wanting more, then these are for you. read more 

If you enjoyed the Anime of Tokyo Ghoul you will like this series. Just like in Tokyo Ghoul Ajin has a new species the so called Ajin, who are superior than humans. For me this series does everything right where the Anime version of Tokyo Ghoul failed.  

I like both of them. Both series are good and unique in there own way but Ajin was in part inspired by Tokyou ghoul this is why Ajin reminds you of Tokyo Ghoul. The characters look the same, the main character has a monster inside them, the anime's a horror etc.  

Both of these series deal with a main character rejected by society. As is the case with Kaneki, Kei is deemed as an unsightly being that needs to be "eradicated", or, in the words of the residents of Japan, "locked up and taken care of by the government". Both protagonists dance a fragile line between staying themselves and being what everyone else believes they are. Both are in hiding and both lose a bit of their humanity somewhere along the line. But unlike Tokyo Ghoul, Ajin doesn't completely screw over the second season (okay, maybe there's like one scene that could've been better). All in all, it's one of my favorite series out there. Don't let the animation throw you off - it actually grows on you! A must watch! read more 

Both title have a ,,dark story" but if you want somethink more realistic just watch Ajin 

Both MC characters got their powers ACCIDENTALLY, if you know what I mean. The story and the plot is alike to some scenes. Give it it a try. The graphics of Ajin may be bad but worth it. 

i am a fan of both and I see some similarities between the two, the character design give you feeling of deja vu. the main character has a monster inside them, the anime's a horror  

Both protagonists experience a change within themselves and gain a supernatural power that they are unable to control. They both contain a detective/mystery aspect with both protagonists being hunted. 

-MCs become (or were already) something that is considered a threat to humanity. -MCs are decently strong after the story kicks off. -Both animes deal with death and gore. As well as mystical powers the inhuman have. -Both MCs go through torture that changes them. Differently in both animes but it creates the story. -Both Animes have a detective/squad/government after them trying to catch them. 

Follows a main character who was a normal member of society only to become/realise they're a monster that society hunts 

"They are not human... right?" All of a sudden an ordinary high school boy realizes he's not a normal human anymore, he begins to struggle trying to find a safe place in such a cruel world being despised by society. Is he not a human, or are humans not humane enough?  

They have the same "kind" of forced unfair situations that lead the main characters go "wild" 

Dark and cruel world. A fight between humans and parasytes/Ajin. Both anime have a school boy who's pretty much innocent and naive, and finds himself to be the parasyte/ajin. Lots of action, violence, gore, fight between humanity and ajin/ghouls. Psychological, questioning morals of what's good and bad/right or wrong, and humanity. Shinichi has Migi, Kei has IBM ( Invisible Black Matter) who fights and protect them. 

Supernatural creatures reside in humans and they possess special ability. Due to that circumstances, the community despise them and hunt for them.  

* Both series shows supernatural beings ( Parasytes & Ajins ) being hunted by humans... * Both shows are dark and dramatic... * Both MC's ( Shinichi & Kei ) becomes cold hearted killers ( mostly for self defense ) * Both Shinichi & Kei has helpful people around them... * Both are intense as hell... * Both has dislikeable antagonists/enemies...that makes you want to punch your monitor * Both has outstanding BGM 's...(truly perfectly fitting) 

A young man discovers an amazing ability. He handles it in his own way. Violence ensues regardless of how well he handles it. 

-Are commonly associated with Tokyo Ghoul, but are much better. -Have a dark theme -Have a protagnist that is wimpy at first look, but can be serious when needed -Protagonist is inhuman and hides his abilities 

- Similar themes. - Both reagrding young people coming to terms with a strange power that separates them from normal humans. - Both are serious, complex, and well-written.  

In both there are humans that need to hide because of supernatural stuff. The Ajin need to hide because of their abilities which the government wants to exploit and experiment on. In Kiseijuu the parasites are aliens that want to hide because of their plans and the main character is someone that kept control over his body and is all by himself like the main character in Ajin. Both are involved/confronted with others of their "race" what want to harm humanity. And they don't want to work together with them. (Which means they need to hide from other humans and from others of their "race".) Politics are involved in both. In Kiseijuu the parasits infiltrate political positions. In Ajin they Ajin try to influence the politics through fear and terrorism. read more 

Two mutated teenagers. Going through live problems. Both MC's are getting hunted down. Revolve around live issues. Very indulging anime.  

If you like Action, Horror, Psychological, Seinen... And of course Fantasy (Kiseijuu is Sci-Fi, while Ajin is Supernatural), you'll enjoy these animes. There are big changes in high school students' lives, when they realize they aren't ordinary humans anymore. They're trying to live peacefully, while humans are hunting "monsters" (parasytes or demi-humans) and monsters are planing to take governance in their hands. But things aren't going as well as protagonists wanted to... And both animes have similar atmosphere, so if you liked Kiseijuu: Sei no Kakuritsu, you should watch Ajin. 

Both are thrillers with protagonist ending up in a supernatural situation. Both protagonist are students similar stories are similar are about beating an antagonist with similar powers Both have action and some mystery elements too  

Both stories are about teenager with psychological problems who finds himself being another specie. Borh main characters face oppression and try to hide their true identity. Also both shows have amazing character development and cool-looking fighting scenes. 

Well It Involves the same stuff as ajin, the arise of new superpowered beings and their clash, the politics and stuff, the action and the way ajins work is pretty similar to parasytes.  

Both protagonists are very smart and intellectual. Both MC's have to escape police same voice actors, lots of action, pretty intense and keeps you wanting more. Morals of what's right or wrong/ good and bad. Both anime shows how different characters can be when we see their reasons for acting one way or another.  

the shinigami's in death note reminded me of the black ghosts in Ajin. and they are hunting on kira, second kira enz enz in death note. and they are hunting on Ajin's in Ajin. 

(applies to both Ajin sequels and movies too) - Both shows are EXTREMELY smart, thrilling, dark, psychological, unpredictable and have heavy attention to detail. - They feature clever, kind of anti heroes who obtain a supernatural power and they use it to achieve their goals. - Has 2 of the greatest and the most intellectual antagonists of all time. - They feature a cat and mouse chase throughout the series. - Similarly epic narrative and characterization. - Every episode is immensely Intense and keeps you wanting for more. - Awesome soundtracks which makes everything even more thrilling. - Shows it from both perspectives with their thought processes and strategies. - They are'nt black and white and u might end up supporting the 'bad' guys. - Both shows are Very Highly reccomended. read more 

I find it similar to Death Note as both series' got me, personally, hooked on anime. Death Note was my first anime, and it's the reason I started loving it. After a while, I drifted away from anime, and nothing really made me want to watch it again. So I decided to go out of my comfort zone and watch an anime that i'd never really heard of; and I'm so glad that I did. Ajin has really made me love anime in the way I used to again. Give it a go! 

both are absolutely thrilling rides with a heavy plot and clever excitement. there's cat-and-mouse stuff going on here (L and light/kei's group and sato). the pace of *ajin* isn't nearly as fast-paced as *death note.* both are very psychological and similar in vibe. both shinigamis and IBM/black ghosts have the same concept. *ajin* has a lot more action strong police forces are involved, which serves as a heavy antagonist. both protagonists are anti-heroes. morals of what is good or bad. both show how different the protagonists can be when we see the reasons for acting in such a way. 

Both animes have a serious tone and deal with death, in ajin it is about immortality, you have a group of people who are immortal who fight against the law enforcement . The protagonist slowly learns about the extents of his powers as the anime progresses and fights against several antagonists including people that have the same power as him. In the end it is also a battle of wits. For people who want to enjoy an anime that takes itself seriously, has little to none romance or eichi - i.e. an anime that does not seem "weird" I would recommend this show, because it is realistic and beginner friendly read more 

Both shows are done in CGI. Both main characters had to get used to their new life after "something" happened. Similar feelings. 

Both anime have dark atmosphere and CG. Protagonist that had some struggles in life gets some super powers and you can't call them human anymore. Action, gore and lots of killing.  

we have a guy who suddenly has a newfound perspective on life because he’s been granted a supernatural power. The main difference here is that Kei’s life immediately takes a downward turn because of his supernatural power, while Inuyashiki starts experiencing a more triumphant and glorious life. When one person is caught between a mysterious government agency and terrorists, it’s hard to expect any joy in life. The more subtle similarities deal with the action and the character relationships. In both, action scenes are characterized with brutal hits and pretty free-flowing CG. However, the intensity of bloodshed isn’t too high in either. There is a little more in Inuyashiki, but so far it is not gratuitous. Then there’s the way that Kei approaches Satou and tries to reign him in. This seems to be the route that Inuyashiki and Hiro are taking read more 

Both the antagonist and protagonist are not human, as the enemies are difficult to kill while obsessed with murder. 

-Inuyashiki and Ajin both feature a mass serial killer having no mercy for their victims but still having (understandable) reasons for their terrorist acts. -The main characters of both series are non-human and unkillable, battling each other with their powers. The only difference is that in Ajin is they're are born with the said power while in Inuyashiki they mysteriously receive it from an unknown entity. -Both animes are animated with CGI, Ajin is completely CGI while Inuyashiki is mixed both with hand drawn animation and CGI. 

Special type of humans who have conflicts, in a contemporary setting. 

The IBMs are really similar to stands in Jojo 

both protagonist have same powers like stand...and the person who have same power as protagonist only they should see each others powers 

--Both the anime focuses on "Fighting Ghosts". --Both the Villains are Old. --The MC's Stand/IBM is the strongest in the anime. --Both are super fun animes to watch. 

Although the animation, plot, and characters are very different, they give off the same vibe. As I was watching Kokkoku, I started thinking of Ajin as soon as I saw the creatures summoned in the world of Stasis. 

Dark plot. Villain with abnormal mindset. 

Deep characters and a bit of a dark setting is reliable to both anime! The villains and the psychological story is very very good and makes both anime to a must watch in my opinion!  

Ajins and diclonius have suffered from experiments and torture by humans. 

Both titles include supernatural beings hunted by scientists. Some of those specimens broke free and are hating humans for pain that they causing him. 

- Both deal with humans dealing with supernatural beings which are invisible to them and trying to exterminate them - both MCs (Lucy in EL and Kei in Ajin) are cold-hearted killers in the sense that they protect themselves - Both have gore - Both MCs need to protect themselves from other members of their species Differences - Ajin has a slightly happier feel, less gore etc. - EL has only female MCs which are in this different species, Ajin only has male Both are dark and gloomy and if you like one you'll probably like the other, except Ajin's style may not be everyone's cup of tea but other than that they're both really good psychological-type anime. read more 

Both give off the same vibes and similar art style that's older. Both about needing to hide to survive. Both species are feared by "normal" humans. 

What does it mean to be human? What separates man from monster? These are questions both Shiki and Ajin explore. With a battle between mortals and immortals, they show the points of view from both sides, and execute it well. Both series greatly deal with the darkness within humanity, and if the "monsters" really are in the wrong. 

-Both male MCs are physicaly weak but they are imoortals and can't die also they use every mean possible to win agaist their enemies no matter how dirty that is.Furthermore they are caught up in a power struggle. -Both MCs live in a violent world where the weak dies and the strong survives. -The enemies of both MCs are twisted and find amusement in fight furthermore they are manipulative and evil. 

They both involve revival, fear, drama, uncertainty. People wanting to kill you. Not sure if someone is your ally or enemy. Both have a level of horror / gore (implied or otherwise). Both leave you really, really wanting to see the next episode. Both have a good focus on the nature, personality, and morality of various peoples/characters -- is someone being evil because they kill? Both start with a sort of mediocre high school male character, and both show subtle but minimal growth with the hint of future growth of the MC. Ajin is obviously more supernatural with a focus on humanity and violence, whereas Re Zero is more fantasy and over-the-top characters with a focus on the characters themselves, and especially the MC's perspective and mental workings.  read more 

Both characters were living somewhat perfect lives, until they were just dealt a bad hand, albeit one could say a well deserved hand, and now they have to adapt to what they were given in order to survive daily. - Ajin involves a methodically thinking student who is thrown into a world of "terrorism and misunderstandings." - Youjo Senki involves a methodically thinking office-worker who is thrown into a "magical WW1-esque era." 

Both series have unique protagonists that work in combination with a unique "alternate-universe" setting where the world is pretty damn similar to ours (at some period in time) but thrown in with a supernatural twist. If you're like me, you probably liked either Ajin or Youjo Senki because of the unconventially assholey protagonist. While the protagonist of Ajin is similarly selfish and tends to prioritize themselves/their safety over others like the protagonist of Youjo Senki, the most notable difference between the two is that Senki's MC is rather cruel, mentally twisted, and motivated, while Ajin's protagonist is far more apathetic/socially challenged and really undertakes far more character development than the former. Also, Ajin takes place in a world that mirrors our modern era and Youjo Senki is heavily inspired by WWI. It is worth mentioning that if you DON'T like military anime or don't enjoy the learning curve when trying to learn the international format of an alternate universe then Youjo Senki might not be for you. read more 

Both are from Polygon Pictures, both are CGI anime, and if you watched it dubbed they share many voice actors.  

Both shows are in CG. They have a gloomy tone with dark themes. Both of them have monstrous creatures. 

Both have similar feeling, perfect plots, complex story, peculiar art, well-developed characters and reflections. 

Have a lot to do with turning into monsters and everything escalating from there. 

-Both are awesome and gritty shows which might be overlooked due to their unconventional animation. -The Mc obtains a dark supernatural power which turns him into something inhuman. -They fight others of their own kind. -Amazing and well thought out Antagonists. -The goverments get involved in exterminating them. -Both are action packed and has a dark and bloody atmosphere. 

These two anime are from Netflix and have a young boy main character that is not totally normal. These two anime deal with themes of the increasingly paranoid of the supernatural and how people react to the existence of monsters to humanity. Not to mention characters learn to train and control their powers until they come to accept who they are. 

Both are about some sort of terrorism and a showing corruption in a high developed country. Also, both have extraordinary character but with a deep humanity. While Ajin is more frontal on the cause of terrorism, Zankyou no Terror is a bit more mysterious throughout the storytelling. It's also more melancholic and contemplative. To me, both are an approach on the same kind of problematic. 

Both stories are about group of people braking law and the government which tries to stop them. In both anime we see both main characters' perspective and perspective of the group/government which tries to stop them. Also both of them have amazing soundtrack and breaking moments. Finally, ZoT are amazingly written stories which you can't stop watching until you finish them. 

This anime is also about immortality and etc.. its not comedy at all like Durarara but it has good antagonist and Storyline its a bit Dark anime and its 3d that u might not like it , but believe me it worth the Story. 

Moral ambiguity is a major theme in Ajin, which we see in Psycho-Pass. In Ajin, there are horrible, inhumane things done to "human-like creatures". There is prejudice against the unknown. And let's be honest, these are things we face in the real world. Society has a habit of fearing the unknown and judging people that are seen as "different", which is something that is brought up time and time again in Psycho-Pass as well. So, we find ourselves caught up in this ethical debate: should they die or live (human and "monster" alike). We want to fight against those wronging the main character but also struggle internally with whether it is right or wrong to actually kill a human being no matter how terrible they are. All in all, both anime are intriguing. They are both dark and discuss the various views of what is deemed ethical and good by society/a higher power in opposition to what other characters may see as morally sound. They make you question your own morals. Each anime brings to the table something unique. Psycho-Pass is a psychologically based anime in which people are deemed as "latent criminals". This means, if someone is viewed by the Sibyl System (the governing power) as a possible threat to society, they are tossed into rehab or worse, some end up in holding facilities for the remainder of their lives. From the beginning, these people are seen as criminals without actually committing a crime because they are "different". Similarly, in Ajin people that are deemed different are turned into test subjects. Society sees Ajin as something like scum. And the government uses them as their play thing because who cares about a monster, right? These anime are horror. There is a lot of blood, gore, and deaths. There is always a lot of action. If you want standard animation, I would recommend Psycho-Pass because Ajin is very CGI. However, both are very interesting in their own right. read more 

Both cgi only anime and have a pretty good story to them also. 

thts meaning the genre almost same,.... Nagano Kei in anime AJIN is not a human......maybe seems like a immortal human, just like Ikoma(The main character in Koutetsujou no Kabaneri), he is half human half kabane(Kabaneri). Both of the main character has a special power, and they'r've a supporter character tht always help them...... This anime is vr awesome, cool, etc 

They both have that element of mystery and suspense which keeps you on the edge of your seat through both series. Another and Ajin both are pretty gruesome anime at times, but believe it when I say these types of anime are the best. 

We have in here some similar stuff, like the torture/experiment on the wiked for more information, and at some point, the organs were removed and grew back again. The polt is not actually the same, but there are similarities on the way the main characters uses their powers to fulfill their actions 

Both are fully CGI animated, have dark tones and great soundtrack. 

Both very beautiful anime's. With beautiful witty character dynamics.  

Dark, psychological, realistic animation, intense, lots of action. Great character and story development. Morals of society of what's right and wrong/ good and bad. Some good plot twists showing us what we really didn't expected. We might hate some characters until we see their reasons of acting one way or another, and then you see it all differently.
