Cossette no Shouzou

First of all, I must say the stories of these two anime are very different. But if you're looking for an intriguing anime that gives you the same feeling you have when you watch Jigoku Shoujo (and vice-versa), Le Portrait de Petite Cossette is a good option(and vice-versa). Petit Cossette, is a little bit more bloody. And naturally, Jigoku Shoujo, could afford to move on the storyline more slowly since it has more episodes, while Petit Cossette has only around 120 minutes. But both series build the mystery at a similar pace, keeping you interesting and wondering what's going to happen next. 

Same feel. Lots of gore, powerful music, lolis, and a complicated but not fully explored plot. 

Two surreal concepts, transport us into dark worlds that hide a relationship that develops over time. Everything started because an object that is appreciated by the protagonist (A drink in Cossete, An egg in Tenshi), which keeps within himself, his own hope to change what is their world. 

Both abound in surreal and frightening dreamscapes, Art Noveau aesthetics, references to European literary classics, and both feature music by Yuki Kajiura. 

Both very supernatural and hard to follow shows. I recommend you watch them slowly and connect the dots little by little, then you will find both shows very horrific and formidable, yet somewhat entertaining and interesting. Both shows are equally good. 

Both are very dark, beautifully animated, and have spiritual/paranormal feels. Both involving a girl who at one point wanted to severely harm/kill the male protagonist but then learned to love him. 

Le Portrait de Petit Cossette and Comedy are dark and brooding anime that take the supernatural element to a whole new level of psychological ambivalence. Both are visually challenging and original in their take of emotionally upsetting horror.  

Nothing alike. But SE Lain was one of the first animes that came to my mind when I began watching Le Portrait de Petit Cossette. Even though their feels grow apart after the first episode of Petit Cossette, they both start in this intriguing way that make you sink right into the story, in their own 'confusing' ways. Lain's focus is more towards a slow paced, mysterious, sci-fi(the internet). While Le Portrait de Petit Cossette clearly focus more on the horror(blood) and morbid romance. Despite all differences, they are both dark, intriguing series that pay close attention to the characters' thoughts and 'insanities', ones that might even trigger your own ;) read more 

Both animes have a dark atmosphere that goes very well with the themes and storylines developed. Le Portrait de Petit Cossette's more romance-drama based, and on other hand Pet Shop Of Horrors is focused on mystery and human's psychological analysis. Either way, if you like dark animes that have the power to give you the creeps and stll be very interesting, now you've two good recommendations.  

Very similar, but the doll in Rozen Maiden is really...a doll. 

The main character works/owns at his store. He meets a mysterious doll/girl who takes over his life. Rozen Maiden is light-heart while Cossettte is dark and horror like. Similar background art animation.  

Horror series featuring a mysterious girl and an ordinary boy trying to discern and overcome the supernatural circumstances plaguing them. The plots are quite different, but the creepy ambiance pervading both is remarkably similar. 

Similarities are :A"strange" young girl entrancing a boy in both anime , many shots are similar as i believe they have the same director, both towards the gothic type of anime (Petit Cossette being more)also the main boys both work in antique shop. 

First would be how both the main characters, Victorique and Cossette have similarities in terms of outer appearances(dark-lolitas) so there would be instances that they give strong similar aura around them so as for Kujou and Eiri. Second is that both animes also have elements of romance and mysterious/dark stories around them though Cossette no Shouzou is indeed a more serious type of storyline. -Nevertheless both of the anime are very interesting and is worth the watch for fans who love the same genre of Cossette no Shouzou or Gosick. 

I had the same strange felling watchin' both series.. mystery, dark and a little bit psychedelic. 

They start quite innocent, the main guy meets the main girl on supernatural terms and from an innocent start it all goes dark and gore in the end and both have a more or less open end to think about. 

- Both have dark stories that makes you have an idea of what's going on at the beginning that slowly changes towards the end. - Same feel. Lots of gore and a intrincate but not fully explored plot. 

Both are trippy as fuck and barley make any sense. However Botha are a visual feast. Some of the most mind-bending cinematography in anime.  

Both dive into the dark mind of a human different ways but still in the brain. While in there they fight over what is the truth and are lies. Cossette does stray away from that with a tragic love story. 

Both have a similar feel including a gothic lolita as well as stunning visuals. They both also have a historical setting. Paintings are the main attribute to Cossette no Shouzou whereas Dantalian no Shoka are books. 

- They both have supernatural stuff going on, not always making sense at the first look, but with deeper meanings. - They're full of odd dialogues (good "odd" dialogues) and sometimes they give a sensation of discomfort while you don't quite understand what's truly happening. 

I don't see how anyone would think that Boogiepop or Petit Cossette wasn't fantastic if you already liked the other. Dark, beautiful animation and DEFINITE confusion at every turn. 

There's a sacrifice for love, there's a lot of pain, blood and suffering. Mysterious, epic, dramatic feel. Also a lot of colours, strong emotions and meaningful symbolism. You don't understand the story right away but by the end you admire the intricate plot and the surprise which you haven't expected. Both shows contain what is called 'hidden gems'; they're one of a kind, memorable. 

Look closely and you'll think. "These two animes are nothing alike". Le Portrait de Petit Cossette has more of a dramatic feel to it, while Ghost Hunt slides way more towards a comedy(Le Portrait de Petit Cossette is very VERY far from a comedy). But for some reason, they both appealed to me in a similar way. So if you're looking for a horror, dramatic version of Ghost Hunt with a tad of romance, go for Petit Cossette. If you're in the mood for a more lighthearted supernatural anime, go for Ghost Hunt. 

Vampires(NightWalker) versus Horror(Le Portrait de Petit Cossette). One might think I went insane when making this recommendation. They're both dramas, in their own ways. And they both contain a sensible taste of romance. While Le Portrait de Petit Cossette is a much more crude, bloody version of the less dramatic NightWalker... they both give me the same feeling somehow. As if they were supposed to be on the same category... a tad of drama, romance, and a load of mystery. 

Mystery that unveils in different ways. Both slow paced in their own ways. While Mushishi is much more of a relaxed, yet serious watch; Le Portrait de Petit Cossette is more of a horror(bloody) dramatic anime. Very different in everything apart from the core feeling, but both intriguing in their own ways. (And I think I never said 'own ways' so many times in my life) 

(Of course I mean the whole KnK series, not just the final movie.) These titles are similar in many ways. First, they share a gloomy atmosphere, occult themes, rivers of blood & lots of other horrors. Second, both are truly stunning artworks featuring all modern achievements in the field of animation. Third, the plot: the two stories are equally unpredictable, with unexpected sharp turns and mind-blowing endings, and also connected by themes of love, sacrifice and redemption. And last — but definitely not least — the brilliant music by Yuki Kaiura. 

Both anime have dark undertones, with Cossette's being more apparent most of the time. While ef is more refined in artwork and storytelling, both are conceptually very well executed, and deal with dualism of relationships past and present. 

Both these short OVA are about love (or a strong connection) that has been built up between characters in a past life. The main characters are now -in this life- confronted with those feelings and all that revolves around it, be it friendship or love. These aren't soppy love stories, though, for both series are also about murder and it's up to the main characters to solve these bloody twists of fate.  

Both series contain the theme of horror and mystery. Although Cossette no Shouzou slides into the more serious side, both anime(s) retain its dark atmosphere. Romance and drama is also present in both series.  

Both involve an older teenage boy who falls in love with a blonde loli and ignores the girl who loves him. Both use Victorian esque, symbolic art. Both are great super natural romances.
