Busou Renkin

Both the action and the comedy are very similar in Bleach, but Bleach is slower paced and keeps them a little more separated from each other. Still, if you liked Busou Renkin you might try to watch at least the first few major story arcs of Bleach

Busou Renkin and Bleach have a great deal in common. The primary premise of both series is that a young man can do a great deal if he has enough determination and pain tolerance. In both series, the inexperienced but honorable boy comes upon what he perceives as a vulnerable girl in serious danger. In a somewhat ill advised attempt to save the girl, he ends up endangering himself and gaining unexpected powers. Each boy finds himself struggling to improve himself both mentally and physically; so, he can fulfill his roll as protector and defender. These are two action series which feature major combat and internal struggle with random bits of humor thrown in.

Busou Renkin and Bleach are both similar in their action/fighting. Renkin has its different types of Arms Alchemy, while Bleach has different types of zanpakutous. They also share the "girl saves guy" story in the beginning.

Both Busou Renkin and Bleach feature a decent high-school student who has duty, honor and the lives of others suddenly thrust upon him. Both also feature a female "sidekick" who teaches our young heroes the skills they will need. I guarantee if you liked one of these anime, you will like the other.

Both Busou Renkin and Bleach are very similar in that the story focuses around the main character being saved by a mysterious female. Both characters end up becoming powerful from the encounters with the mysterious female and continue to fight alongside her and the others they meet. If you liked one then you will enjoy watching the other.

Bleach is almost the same type of anime as Busou Renkin. Busou Renkin is a bit darker than Bleach, but it has the same amount of fighting and (perhaps more) comedy. In both anime people fight with special powers, but in Bleach they use swords and in Busou Renkin they don't. Although, one of the main characters in Busou Renkin fights with some sort of swords attached to her armor (it's a bit hard to explain, it looks really cool though =P).

Both Bleach and Busou Renkin have a very colorful universe, which makes them a joy to watch. They both focus on a male high schooler and an older girl who shows him the ropes of fighting, and fills him in on the way that the world works (at least for a little while). They both have a very flashy fighting style, and they both start with B. If you like one, I have very little doubt that you wouldn't enjoy the other.

Both series centre on an ordinary teen who, through a highly developed sense of justice, are in the wrong place at the right time, and their lives are changed because of their choices.

Their sensei in both are highly trained female warriors, who are stern, but develop an affection for the protagonist.

If you like the way the fantastic rub up against the struggles of everyday life for teens, then you'll like both series.

Both are about young boys, who are accidentaly put into a weird fight, after which they obtain a mysterious power. Also, if you liked the variety of characters with different powers in one, you'll find it in the other too.

Teenage boy tries to save girl, it doesnt work so well so girl gives him super powers! Boy wants to get stronger so he can save girl, protect all his friends and maybe save the world too ! Add a little comedy and some cool swordfights to the mix and you got two very nice shounen with alot in common.

If you like the the first you will probably like the other.

Even if takes your life, you will never give up, you will never back down, you will never let down the ones who believe in you. You will keep going forward! You will fight for the world, for your friends and even for those you haven't met and probably never would. You belive that's the right thing to do and it really is!

Both Busou Renkin and Bleach are created on that same theme. The main characters - Mutou Kazuki and Kurosaki Ichigo, are first thinking about others and then about themselves. But is it an advantage to be so selfless, to care more about the world that about yourself? Who knows? But if you, too, think that the world we live in is worth saving, you must watch these two animes!

Wow this one is easy. Both series have main characters scouted by badass chicks giving them the power. They even have similiar cool-looking weapons ( swords ). They are both fast learners with bad first impression but kind hearts. Bleach and BR are a good shounen anime well worth your time.

Both Busou Renkin and Bleach have male characters that are in a serious crisis and are saved by female warriors, both have similar weapons and the sumoning is nearly the same. If you enjoyed one of these great series, I guarantee that you would like the other one too.

I'm going with the masses and adding the obvious recommendation for these series as they are both so similar. From a similar plot line of a secret society trying to save the earth from the unknown monsters, schoolgirl and guy heroes, special powers to a female side character with very large breasts.

Both are pretty mindless and don't take much thought, occasionally delivering laughs. Regular fight scenes that take more time than is absolutely necessary.

These are certainly not the best shows I've seen, but fill some time when there's lack of anything else better on...

Yet another story about a boy whose life, as well as the lives off all his loved ones, are in danger. Mysterious creatures that bare little to no resemblance to anything they've ever encountered before, have begun to attack their home towns, leaving piles of bodies and taking countless lives. Both protagonists have learned the secrets that had long been hidden from the normal populous, and with the help of two very unique girls, they've obtained the power required to abolish the threats and save their town from extinction. However, what they still do not know is that there is more to it than meets the eye. Can the two live up to their new responsibilities, and accept the fact that they may have to leave behind the very people that they swore to protect in order to fight a greater evil?

Both of these anime's have a strong female supporting character that introduces and works closely with the male character who aquired his powers from the female character. Both anime's involve supernatural powers and defeat things that should not dwell on the planet earth.

As a reccomendation, I believe anyone who has watched either of these anime's and enjoyed it, would definitely enjoy the other

Bleach and Busou Renkin are uncannily similar in several ways. From the animation, the beginning storylines, the characters, the groups and the weapons, you could probably take some of the characters from one, plop them in the middle of the second, and things would work out.

Character-wise, Kazuki and Ichigo are very similar in motivation, temperament, combat styles and eventually story. Tokiko and Rukia are also very much alike, for similar reasons.

Busou Renkin has a storyline that hits the ground running, with very minimal asides and filler. If you liked Bleach, but want something a little more fast paced, check it out.

Alternately, if you liked Busou Renkin and want a little more, check out the early seasons of Bleach.

Very similar plot lines, though Bleach is a little more complex. Both plots host a strong female lead who discovers the male lead and helps him realize his power. Both plots offer heros an extra set of fighting powers. Very similar animes, both very enjoyable.

Busou Renkin is like a shorter version of Bleach.  They both have weapons that suit their way of fighting. Also Kuzuki and Ichigo both meet a strange young girl who give them new power that'll help save the world.  Both of the guys are also incredible strong and manage to win in the end. They also fight to protect they're loved one.

Hmm, where to start, maybe it's shorter if I just point out the things they do not  share. Which is primeraly is their number of episodes. 

Basicly it's about a normal guy, guy gets superpower, guy fights to save the things he loves. Bleach just takes more time for it all.  

When I was watching Busou Renkin, I kept thinking of Bleach. Even with the usual spiky hair and oversized weapons, it's hard to not think of the other when watching either one of them:

Fight scenes a plenty against monstrous foes, the protagonist gaining strength through rigorous training, the cool trainer-esque female character who guides them (Tokiko for Busou Renkin and Rukia for Bleach) and the reason the heroes fight.

Busou Renkin actually ends and moves at a quick pace, while Bleach is still ongoing and moves at it's own pace (depending on the arc). No matter which one you watched, you're bound to enjoy the other as they both feature the same stuff that makes them good in their genre.

Both animes tell about a boy who was suddenly dragged into a HUGE mess due to a series of unfortunate events. The two protagonists gain power from a girl and start fighting along side with them. The two main guys strives to protect the girl and the rest of their loved ones. The action and excitement is just GREAT! If you liked Busou Renkin/Bleach, then DEFINITELY watch the otherr!!! 

Busou Renkin is much simillar to bleach especially season 1 of bleach this is mainly because in both the series lead heroines will grant power to male lead progonists while he is on verge of death, followed by slow adaptation of them in new world (i meant heroine). in my humble opinion busou renkin seems to be the shorter version of bleach. both Ichigo kurosaki & Kazuki Mahiro have many characters in common. to name few their strong sense of justice, putting their lives before others, not compromizing to lose anything (when faced which choosing one life over another), desire to grow stronger & the effort they put in it etc., both the male & female leads in both the series are similar with only exception being Tokiko & Kazuki becoming lovers while Ichigo & Rukia's relationship is still not yet known (yet Ichigo & Rukia's relationship seems to be more than a friend & less than a lover - In my humble opinion). anyways if you like one try another surely you will like it. 

Both series has a similar beginning where a girl saves a guy who then becomes involved. However, even though the concept looks the same, they have individual stories. Also the amount of action isn't that different.

These series are about boys meeting girls that will change their lives forever. Yuji's (Shakugan no Shana) and Matou's (Busou Renkin) destinies are on their way, and the series focus on their dilemmas trying to lead a normal life, and not forsake their freshly-discovered powers. If you liked the strong, sword wielding girl and the boy that tried to protect them in one series, you will love the other.

Shakugan no Shana and Busou Renkin use the same story line (I.E. Such as: Onegai Sensei & Ah! My Goddess). Shakugan no Shana happens to be more on the dramatic spectrum while Busou happens to be on the comedy side. Either way, the artistic values are about the same except Shakugan no Shana has more digital effects than Busou Renkin; and although Busou has good points in its story, Shana appeals more to me because the comedy in Busou lacks forethought (but I'll leave the opinions up to you :)).

For both Busou Renkin and Shakugan No Shana are the ingredients swords and school boys and girls, along with a little romance between the main characters. Both Yuji and Kazuki try to do their best to protect the unknowing human society so that they can live on with their lives without getting killed. Although the story is completely different, they do share a lot resemblance, so if you liked the one, you will like the other.

Both series are about a boy who gets caught up in some kind of magical fighting environment because of a girl. Both have tsundere style female leads, where the female lead starts out cold and tough and gradually opens up, although this is perhaps less true in busou renkin. Shakugan no Shana is perhaps more childish, but the two shows are pretty similar.

Like shows where the protagonist is a mostly clueless male who is at the mercy of a tsundere magical girl through a misfortunate death? You'll like Busou Renkin OR Shakugan no Shana, as this applies to both.

Both series are about a boy meating a girl that is in a world of fighting the normal world does not know about, and both are, despite being told not to, wanting to fight along with the girl. Both boys are discovered to have quiet an amount of potential in fighting and both have a "special item" witch makes them that strong.

Both girls are a member of a organisation with multiple of these fighters.

The way the romance theme is applied in both series is similar too there is not that mutch focus on it in the start but later on the series start with more details on the relationship. Although in busou renkin there is a slight less amount of romance.

In the end, it's all about the alchemy. The idea of alchemists is exploited in both Shana and Busou Renkin, along with the idea of fighting evil powers that use alchemy for evil purposes. You should also find the couple of boy-girl mostly the same as the one in the other anime , because it is the girl that teaches the boy how to fight, it is the boy who saves the girl and it is a relationship that keeps getting stronger in each of their hearts. You'll really like them both!

Female heroines. Tsundere female heroines. Ass-kicking, tsundere female heroines. And then there's the guy. But the females kick ass, the guys have their uses (And are more often than not clueless) and the action is red hot. That's what these two are about; action, fighting and some comedic downtime with a romantic sub-plot.

Lines will be crossed for love, hearts will be hardened and villains will be vanquished. Tune in to the other if either one catches your fancy.

A freshmen high school boy named Yuji finds out he acutally died. He meets a girl named Shana. She is a flame haze who controls fire. Shana gives a flame that returns a temporary life. Anyone who was the flame will be forgotten completley, aswell as thier belongings. The only who will remember their their existence is other magical beings. Yuji starts falling inlove with Shana. Shana starts to like Yuji. Yuji's flame is now gone. Deppression rises inside of Shana and Yuji's other lover. Yujis gets reborned inside of the king of deizions. When they encounter each other, the only way the express their love is throw violence.

Both series has similar start with female warrior saving male lead character, then male lead character helping her in fighting against evilShakugan no Shana has more flavor of romance while buso renkin is more focused in fighting against evilBut if you like one series you will definitly like other series 

If you loved the cool, powerful warrior girl that fights evil, in one of these anime, you will not be disappointed by the other. The stories focus on the fighting girls that have to forsake normal lives and the boys that do so willingly, in an attempt to protect them and make them happy. Claymore is darker and bloodier, while Busou Renkin edges on the humorous at times, but Clare (Claymore) and Tokiko (Busou Renkin) give away the same feeling. They are both scarred beings with foggy pasts, starting to care for a boy that should mean nothing to them.

The seductress known as Power is humanity's mistress. There are those who seek it and there are those who are given it. Yet, power is still power no matter what form it takes and power by its very nature corrupts humanity. This is the tale of heroes and heroines who've been granted power and fight to retain their humanity; such is embodied in Claymore and Busou Renkin.

These series are mirror images of one another. Myriads of comparisons can easily be done between the two. Some of the more common comparisons include the existence of a controlling organization, a skilled and determined female heroine, the involvement of a young and unaware hero, and the ultimate fight to retain humanity. Yet, despite all of these comparisons, the series are distinct from one another much like how two twins are still very different from one another. Therefore, if one has chosen to watch Busou Renkin or Claymore and wishes to watch something similar yet paradoxically different, then one should watch the other.

The action in both of these shows is at least equal to one another. Both of the main characters, Kazuki and Clare, strive to become the best at what they do despite the odds against them.

Both of these anime have the same kind of idea with every person (main character) has their own sword that can do different things. Also, Busou Renkin I belive has more romance, which really enhances everything and puts more tension and it also has a lot of cliffhangers! Claymore I believe leaves you hanging at the end also. I also believe the ideas of two people always traveling together (Clare and Raki vs. Kazuki and Tokiko) is very similar. Believe me, if you like Busou Renkin, you'll like Claymore, and vise versa!

Claymore and Busou Renkin are, at their simplest, tales about a character that has been embedded with a material that will make them stronger so they can defeat monsters, but will eventuially have negative side effects. The character must eventually come to terms with what their life is becoming and make a decision.

Of course, on top of this are some kick ass fights, and plenty of other story elements.

The story lines are handled in different ways and Claymore is slightly more mature, but I am confident that if you enjoyed one, you will gain some enjoyment from watching the other.

One dabbles in comedy and drama, the other has a drop of comedy in a full glass of drama; one has romance, the other... not so much. But what they both have is awesome fights and excitement in the midsts of the drama.

Claymore has a more mature storyline and has a more mature feel overall but if you're a fan of either one, chances are you'll find something to like in the other. And arguably, Claymore might be the better of the two, considering that Busou Renkin can be considered a generic shounen anime. Just keep that in mind.
