P5 and CG deal with the theme of the rebellion in a supernatural high school setting with the MCs transforming their lives from students who suffer boredom to a rebellious leader set out to reform society for the greater good.
Both deal with the morality and justification of the individuals actions as the stories progresses within the white, black, and gray area to compel the story.
Not to mention that Jun Fukuyama voices both Lelouch and Ren making them have whats in common and their looks making both shows parallel to each other.
For those who want to see a badass anime character being badass.
They both have a student that suddently gains a mysterius powerful ability capable of changing the world. The Protagonists are VERY similar and also share the same japanese dubber (who is the perfect one in my opinion). The only problem is that "Persona 5 the Animation" is an anime adaptation of the original game "Persona 5" and because of that some parts are cut down from the game and you dont get to taste the full persona 5 experience. I recommend to play the original game but if u dont have the time or the requirements the anime is ok too.read more
Both protagonist have the desire to rebel against the system, the INTJ personality, having a superhero-like other form, they're the leaders of a group in Japan that wanting to take back what they have lost, and they want to change the world.
P5 and DN are identical in terms of MC (Ren and Light) with the power to change the world who at first starts out as students with a boring life only to have it changed forever. The MC would later face obstacles that would obstruct their goals from reaching full fruition while at the same time dealing with the consequences and morals of their powers that are questionable and righteous at the same time. Both want to reform society that is corrupted due to their passion and are opposed by certain detectives (Akechi and L)
The art style in both shows are dark and edgy in a stylish manner composed with a well respected soundtracks.
Not to mention Ryuji Sakamoto and Light Yagami have the same Seiyuu Mamoru Miyano making them have similar and different aspects. Akechi as another Death Note Reference Resembles Light but has a role identical to L.read more
Pretty identical to Persona 4 mainly because protagonists meets other characters and they enter this other world that has evil in it leading them to defeat them and causing changes in the real world.
Of course both are adaptation of two persona game, Persona 4 and Persona 5. Persona 5 won best RPG in the game award 2017. In you want to see fantasy but also with real life story, This series will provide that. They have normal daily activities in the high school but also have fantasy activities. Combination of real life story and fantasy story was the strenght of persona series
both are about a group of high school students that fight against evildoers by summoning their Persona/Stand that all have their own unique special powers.
While Persona 5 is more similar to Vento Aureo, it has a lot of similarities with the previous Jojo chapter, too.
The premise is identical: a group of students (with the help of some outsiders) fighting crime "indirectly", that is summoning their personal spirits to brawl against other fighting spirits, all of them with lots of powers and rad designs.

Both series have similar atmosphere - there's also a group of young people with special abilities trying to change the world (kinda lol) and a detective, who helps them, has a lot in common with those people, too. The main protagonist seems to be very inteligent as well.

The MCs and the female law enforcers in both shows have similar roles and relationship that makes both shows no different and holds the key to the story.
Kiritsugu and the Phantom Thieves want to change the world through their powers (Servants in F/Z and Personas in P5) while opposed by their rivals (Kirei and Akechi/Sae/Law Enforcement) in a dark supernatural setting with actions that deal with certain and questionable morals and what is just and not just.
P5 like GC has a teenager whose life was changed forever by a certain power and is has guidance of a strange individual and has a group that rebels against a corrupted society.
P5 and GC have strong artwork and visuals that have worth the budget despite suffering certain story flaws. The soundtrack is worth listening to with music greats and voice acting is well done.
Both series focus on the importance of bonds and defeating the evil in peoples' psyche. A good portion of both series take place in an alternate world. Sarazanmai is a bit on the wackier side, but many of the core messages and themes of these series are the same.
I cannot help but compare P5 to K in terms of story, artwork, music, and aesthetics that refine to each audiences' taste.
Both refer to real life Japan with various cities that serve as a battleground with various groups and individuals. Not to mention both have a talking cat and amnesiac MC who is trying to uncover the past that serves the key to prove their innocence while a greater evil is lurking trying to ruin other's lives for their selfish gain.
Both feature protagonists who visit an alternative universe which focuses on the psychological state and emotions of another person, in wonder egg this seems to be focused on more younger people whereas in persona 5 it is focused on more corrupt people in hopes to changing their hearts. Both have deeper meanings to how the emotion of one person can influence the people around them.

TB and P5 are similar in terms of artstyle and the tone that involves a certain supernatural user who wants quells evil with their gifted powers and serves as a selfless individual who provides kindness and generosity to the needs of helpless and oppressed individuals who cannot fight back evil.

The difference being the cast in Grimms Notes takes on the appearance and utilizes the abilities of fairy tale heroes and heroines to aid them iin battle; while the cast in Persona, have an entity that fights alongside them in battle. The main characters in both series are "wild cards" in that they can take on multiple and any persona while their friends are limited to one or a select few entities.
P5 like Durarara is a supernatural high school themed story that deals with a high school teenager whose life would change forever from a regular student who would later involve with conflicts and supernatural aspects that go beyond a scale wilder than their imagination could handle.
The Seiyuu cast in both shows are superb and their music is composed by the titans of their industries making it another reason to watch.

P5 and Baccano! have a themes that pertain to Arsene and the Gentleman Thief, jazzy soundtrack, stylish art, and revolves around various characters who are important to semi important.
