Though quite different in setting and genre, Trigun and Bakuretsu Tenshi have a few important themes in common. The feel of the old west. The hero(ine) that won't let anything stop them from their goal, who's willing to face impossible odds to finish what they started. A team of good hearted people willing to put up a fight, and an ending you might not have expected.

What i found very enjoyable in Bakuretsu Tenshi and in Read Or Die was the teamwork they did at times. Though they are both up for hire, the story isn't all that alike. But if you liked the way they stick together and pull off some teamwork that's enjoyable to watch, both R.O.D. and Bakuretsi Tenshi are yours to watch.

If you watched one of these anime because you like to see hot girls in action then the other one should please you too. Both anime (Bakuretsu Tenchi and Agent Aika) contain fantastic, futuristic technology development, hazardous fights, spaceships and an adorable female crew.

The animation in both FFVII and Bakuretsu Tenshi is quite similar. Both have nice fighting scenes which seem to have their origin in 3D animation rather than "simple" hand-drawn art. Along with these computer-animated scenes comes a decent plot that doesn't run too deep. These two feel very similar to each other.

Working together as a group, the characters in Outlaw Star and Burst Angel manage to get through all sorts of situations. Both start out very episodic and gain more of a story as they continue. There's a bit of gunslinger action and some mecha in both, though Outlaw Star includes some magic as well. The main characters are also very similar.

Gunslinger Girl

Burst Angel was a show that had a great deal of mecha action, but when Jo started shooting it up it was a great time. The second season of Black Lagoon continues that trend with great shooter action and a lot more suspense. Jo was a great shot and her personality was enjoyable, but with Revy you get a true shooter with a badass attitude. Have fun listening to those bullets sing!

A girl in an advance fighting machine, either in a violent tokyo (Burst Angel) or in space agains alien (Geneshaft). A lot of very nice fighting sceens, and an underlying mystery are the reason that you'll like both series. Now, geneshaft is more technology driven and asks question about genetically engineered, while Burst angel has a more funny side to it.

Plenty of action, slick characters and some awesome mech make these two series the perfect partners. Burst Angel offers more in the way of fan service, with plenty of panty and cleavage shots, whereas S-cry-ed is more focussed on the action.

S-cry-ed is the straight man to the more comedic Bakuretsu, but the battles in each will attract the same kind of audience.

These two shows are very different, and yet watching Bakurestu kept reminding me of Geass. Lelouch's rebellion reminded me of the rogue bounty hunters in BT, and the excellent use of mech to defeat enemies.

Both are very political, and use violence as an ends to a mean, which means the viewer is certainly in for an exciting ride with both.
