-Both are heavily dialogue driven stories
-Both feature apparitions as the driving force of the story
-Both Araragi and Kuro are introduced as human but later revealed to have already been inaugurated into apparition world before the story began
-Both have similar relationships and comedic dynamics between main characters
The interactions between characters in both series are similar. Both series have characters have dialogue where the main characters are bluntly honest. Both series have lots and lots of dialogue, and explanations. Kyokou Suiri doesn't have as interesting as fight sequences, but it does have action sequences. It focuses more on the mystery aspect, than action. Both series have very long explanations for their mysteries, but they do make sense in some way.
Immortal mc, ayakashi, youkai, super beings, a cute girlfriend and both had a massive amount of dialogues and conversations which they used to resolve conflicts.
Girl and boy with supernatural powers meet then fall in love.
The boy is kind of "dangerous".
Even the characters look similar, lively short girl with short hair and tall melancholic boy.
The same circumstantial event when girl with special ability finds boy with a different special ability and from there on boy's life was never the same again when he finds himself being drafted into service by the girl into fighting supernatural entities.
In/Spectre and Beyond the Boundary are two supernatural anime about a short-haired girl and a boy who both have supernatural abilities—the girl is personally associated with supernatural beings and the boy is seemingly immortal. The two eventually form a relationship due to their supernatural connections.
both are are romance, supernatural and involve youkai. they have very similar vibes so if you enjoyed kyoukai no kanata you’ll probably enjoy kyokou suiri.
The aura of the to shows are similar. Even if the stories are quite different, but they both have the same slow tempo with a lot of explaining at it's center. They're both mystery shows that keeps pulling you in even though the story telling is slow. The art of Kyokou Suiri is also quite similar to the classic Kyoto animation style of Hyouka.
Both focus on solving mysteries and getting to conclusions. Both mc's always looked bored or uninterested, especially towards the main love interest, who is always bubbly and pushy with them. Heavy on dialogue and explaining, but does not disappoint with visuals and story. Both definitely worth watches!
They have a very similar way of solving mysteries but looking more at all possible solutions. There is not a lot of drama or action going on but they focus on the episode's specific mystery. The main characters in both animes are very good at picking up details and creating whole stories from them.
I must say that both these series have a lot in common, not only from the general "detective" style case solving but a whole lot more from having characters to atmosphere, to even the pacing of episode and story details.
Having an anime where a full episode can be filled by the main character just talking very technical without it getting boring is an amazing something in any form of media.
And that's what I directly found that it had a great similarity for me to Gosick and the other way around.
Both anime franchises are therefor really close and have a great similar setting!
it is quiet similar in that the protagonist (the guy) protect the female lead while they are trying to solve a mystery.
the female lead iwanaga is actually very similar in her deduction skill and making up "lies" Victorique.
both of this anime shows the dinamic of the two main protagonist and the struggle they have to face each mystery.
and the gotick vibe is pretty strong in both of this anime..
- Narrative crafting in Suiri is very similar to the negotiation scene in the first half of Zetsuen.
- Kotoko/Rikka rivalry very similar to the Aika/Hakaze rivalry.
Both anime are based on manga/novels written by the same author. Because both are from the same author there are a lot of similarities, such as
- both dealing about something supernatural
- similar characters (Aika & Hakaze are together Iwanaga; Kuro being very similar to Yoshino)
- both being detective stories, although Zetsuen has just one big mystery
and so on. If you enjoy one, you might consider giving the other one a try as well
Compared to In/Spectre, has a bit less dialogue-based interactions. In bunny girl, it is a bit more with scientific concepts, whereas this is more on hypothetical instancess, deductions, and inferences. There is some good Rom-com with both shows too.
The characters are very similar in the way they react to things: the deadpan/blunt way the dialogue is, the way characters don't overreact to everything, the way everything in the world is grounded (besides the supernatural stuff). The characters also don't feel like cardboard cut outs, and have some depth to them. Lots of talking and explaining in both series.
Both are mystery and have some dark themes. Both also have a bit of romance involved. There's also heavy usage of gore and violence. In/Spectre being more dialogue-heavy.
The relationship between the female and male leads are similar. Both are about people who seem normal to the outside world but have supernatural powers.
Charlotte and In/Spectre focus on a duo, a boy with dark hair and a girl with light-colored hair, who actually have supernatural abilities. Both anime even start with the girl finding the boy and asking him for assistance on a task she must do for the sake of others—Nao's job is to stop the misuse of supernatural abilities, and Kotoko's job is to resolve problems between humanity and yokai.
The protagonist is a teenager that can see youkaï, spirits and other paranormal beings
Some youkaï see the MC as someone who can help them, some others see the MC as a target or a threat
Natsume Yuujinchou is however more light-hearted (in a certain way, because it also deals with a lot of drama and sad stuff) and more a SoLesque anime than Kyokou Suiri
Both have detective and supernatural themes. Both main characters have a quirky partner and together they try to solve complex mysteries. Great storylines too.
In/Spectre and Uta Kata are two fantasy anime directed by Keiji Gotoh, and despite the latter anime's cover, both shows actually have somewhat similar levels of slow pacing and dark storytelling. The main character in both shows is a girl who has feelings for a boy who is several years older than her. She also has connections to (as well as can see) spirits, which was eventually given to her with a heavy price.
Both anime are supernatural mysteries aimed at a mature audience (meaning those who are fine with exposition in lieu of constant action.) Both feature strong female leads. Boogiepop is supernatural, but not based on Japanese youkai (as far as I can tell.) FYI the first arc of Boogiepop is a tad confusing (nonlinear storytelling) so be willing to keep going into the second arc even if the first isn't quite your cup of tea.
The same supernatural themed anime where it has two individuals , one guy and one girl whom were in the business of dealing with rogue spirits and other supernatural entities whom were running amuck.
Both are dialogue heavy series, and feature the concept of power being equivalent to viewership approval. Also feature fictional characters that appear in the real world because of viewers.
Surprised no one recommend this similar anime for a while except me.
Both series have a weird mysterious strange girl being very infuriated with the male lead.
Both series was about investigating some mysteries relating to murder or psychological crime.
Both series delves into the psychological reasoning and motivations of people.
Both series have a fair share of violence, death, crazy people and plot twists.
Both animes are similar to the main characters, a couple who are investigating paranormal affairs. There are sympathies between Tilarna and det. Kei Motoba in Cop Craft and Kotoko Iwanaga and Kurou Sakuragawa in In/Spektre, but without showing impassioned feelings, they show this with their amusing dialogues and behavior.
The drama and progression of the story line have a similar feel. The pacing of the shows of smaller cases that lead up to a large multi-episode arc is also similar.
Looking for a mystery anime set in a world with paranormal happenings? Both shows solve mysteries whyle showing the past and background of the characters - which is definitely not "normal" or "usual". Both shows have a male and female lead who are geting to know each other throughout the series. The vibes of the two anime is somewhat similar too in my opinion.
The protagonists of both animes are people in In/Spectre and humanoid youkais in Bem with superpowers. They have to restore order in the city, fighting with different kinds of creatures.
The main antagonist of In/Spectre is an enigmatic steel beam wielding maniac attacking people at random, inspiring fear and mass hysteria in people who believe she exists. She is similar to the anonymous Lil Slugger from Paranoia agent who attacks people at random with a golden bat. Both series focus on the panic, media coverage, and investigation of the unknown psychos.
Paranoia Agent is more serious than In/Spectre.
Welp, I can say, the shows is kinda same, but most of them not.
Unlike Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun, the main character of Kyokou Suiri serial is a demigod. Both series is talking about somewhat of "demolishing" the exaggerated youkai(s).
Both shows revolve around solving, or, in Kyoukou Suiri case, providing a plausible explanation, to one central murder mystery set up by a female antagonist. The process involves lots of theorizing and imaginary sequences.
