Death Parade - Recommendations

katyperryismine says...

The reason i make this recommendation.Is both series deal with judgement and moving on after death one occurs at a highschool  one occurs at a bar both have differnt ways of dealing with death and unfished buisness but both shows have the people who have passed on work thourgh their lives and in the end move on to wherever they need to go. Both shows tug at your emotions and feelings as you feel empathy for the characters. Both shows also make you think seriously and offer some thought provoking moments. That is why i recommend angel beats if you liked death parade.

lizardgarden says...

Similar premise. Not quite as dark as Death Parade but also takes place in between life and death and is pretty sad 

zorlop says...

Both of these animes operate on a different plane of existence. Making us all think what really happens after we die. Both are great series' and have a terrific ending

Riruri says...

Both of these anime have the same life after death concept. Although Death Parade is a little bit darker than Angel Beats they are both pretty sad anime.

ShowerOfSunshine says...

Similar background, following the life after death and tackles the different problems when it comes to death and going to Heaven or to Hell. Both anime have a touching ending and are filled with loveable characters that you will easily get attached to.

TallyCrow says...

Death is the main subject with both of these Anime. 

Although Death Parade does it in a darker twisted away while Angel beats does it in a more comedic way.

Both of them bring out emotions you never thought you had with dramatic, intense storylines and memories from the characters. 

I loved seeing both versions of the afterlife from the Anime and I really loved both equally. 

NikorasuX says...

Both stories follow the concept of the transition between death and the afterlife. Although Death Parade is a darker anime, both animes present characters with very touching backstories that are developed throughout the series.

pikachu203 says...

While I will admit Death Parade tends to be more graphic and open with it's dark themes, both Angel Beats and Death Parade focus on the afterlife, or - more specifically - what people experience before reincarnation.  They both are highly emotional, and have fascinating insights on life after death, understanding one's existence and it's meaning, the judgement of souls after death, coming to terms with one's passing, and the hope and despair that comes with it.  Both shows are well-crafted, and have creative imagery and beautiful animation.  Overall, Death Parade is far darker than Angel Beats, but if you enjoyed one, you would likely enjoy the other.

ccallstar111 says...

Both shows discuss the issue of what happens when a person dies. Both shows are incredibly emotional and deal with grief and the pain behind memories of one's life. They both are set in a limbo-like location. Both have bitter sweet endings.

sudneu says...

Angel Beats! is very similar to death parade, but it has less explanation and more action. I'd recommend Angel Beats! for those who like the idea of a situation that would occur after death, same goes for Death Parade. Both of these are fantastic animes and really enticed me to getting to know the characters. watch it!

AmimeCow says...

I agree, and i need 100 character count. Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos.Mangos

ThePotatoKiller says...

Both seriers take place in the inbetween of life and the afterlife. And dealing with coming to terms with their death. While Angels beats is more about moving on and Death parade is the judging of humans both have a large cast of interesting characters.

ThatRakoonChick says...

Both anime have the high-stakes adrenaline feel, but include strategy and critical thinking into the plot. Not much else to say. If you like either of these anime, you're sure to like the other.

staffordshire says...

death and survival type animes. both looking promissing, good staff behind the shows,so they have to be good.

tennis101101 says...

Both of these animes involve you putting your "life" on the line. Also both of these animes involve high stakes games that gets your blood floowing and has you on the edge of your seat waiting to find out what happens next.

thor123 says...

Both anime feature people who are forced to play different games, in order to survive. The mental / psychological consequences of these games are also important in both anime.

YariMari says...

High-stake games where the characters are put into life-or-death sitations. Both are intense psychological anime.

EarthernCreature says...

They both have different games which puts each players' life on the line. They both also both have those psychological elements which stretch each player's sanity

xyst says...

Both invlove high stakes game in an unknown world to the participant, which will lead to death or the void. Both are very psychological stories and have deeper meanings behind the stories.

Seawooo says...

Both take place in places other than our world, and both involve playing the odds with your life on the line, both are psychological and both are great watches!

hauntedhedgehog says...

They are not similar in regards to the storyline or characters but both deal with death, humanity, inhumanity, and moral judgements. If you like one you very well may like the other.

Aniky777 says...

This is something you should see. These is a Anime that almost made me cry it was emotional and was sad had thriller and is something you should see. It was also funny. 

JamOnAnime says...

They are related as in Death Note, he chooses who lives or dies, in Death Parade you choose who goes to Heaven or Hell.

apocalypticGnostic says...

Both of them are psychological thrillers about human mortality. Death Note is about how one man decided to judge humanity, while Death Parade asks what standard humans should be judged on.

onichiban says...

Both give a sensation of mystery and it keeps you hanged for the next episode. Despite having similar titles and different plots both are entertaining, exciting and fun.

Mrchairboy says...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH Death Note Is Super Good, its kind of a weird anime but if you enjoyed Death Parade , you might love it

Pjuskehelt says...

They just gave me the same vibes + There is a Light Yagami easter egg in Death Parade which is really awesome!

GrondXIII says...

Both are anime that peer into the hearts of "guest characters" through the eyes of the main characters. Where Hell Girl does so to send souls to hell, Death Parade does so to determine whether souls get sent to be reincarnated or to oblivion.

PantheraLeo says...

Both shows are incredibly similar. Both are about passing judgement on people. Both have very corofull casts.

doubletwix says...

Both anime explore the idea of life and death, they both include judgements as for Death Parade who looks into the idea of void and recreation, Jigoku Shoujo just looks into hell.

ratihoct says...

death parade has a good story with interesting characters. belive me, you'll love it!

Ka0nonymous says...

Both Death Parade and Jigoku Shoujo have the same format and a similar storyline as well as the overall aura and genre

Yunarea says...

Who judges acts in life or death?Who decides whether you deserve heaven or hell?

In both entities some entities act as judges or executioners, as emissaries of hell.

Warpuppy says...

Both anime focus on a council of people who live between life and afterlife that determine weather or not various people should be sent to hell.

tsukikomoon says...

both have to do with death and have an underlined plot  the anime is funny and involves mysteries

QueenofWeebs says...

Both of these anime are dark and twisted, involving lots of death and mystery.  The characters are built similarly, and although the plots are different, the aura is the same.

BeautifullyAwkward says...

Both dark and fantastic. Interesting characters are developed. Also makes you unsure on whos team are you on. Makes you question certain rules of morality.

SmoothCriminal356 says...

Both anime are gonna emotionaly break you. And there is a hot white haired quiet guy in both. Very psychological, yet has a lot of action and is incredibly enjoyable to watch.

NephaCrystil says...

The two shows have similar storytelling methods wherein the two main characters see the stories of many minor characters and their emotionally compelling stories about their lives.

Btseyhun says...

Both of them have a similar story and a slice of life is day to day activity in a certain way and it about going to another life in some shape of form and both of them are fun

Karasune says...

Mononoke and Death Parade are two hauntingly beautiful shows that will make you think. Throughout the episodes, the viewer meets various characters and will get the chance to know them; their personality, thoughts and feelings, and eventually their past are all laid out. This all done through the efforts of the show's respective main character; Kusuriuri with his 'special tools' in Mononoke, Decim and the life or death games held within his bar. Both shows are based on human nature and share a similar theme of "there's more than meets the eye", and are overall very, very gorgeous. You won't want to miss either one.

apocalypticGnostic says...

They are both psychological stories that are episodic. Although Mononoke does not have the same level as character development that Death Parade has, they both explore the nature of humanity.

The animation in both are beautiful.

AndreCrazy says...

They are pretty similar to my opinion. Both are play to win anime type and both give you that senzation of satisfaction and curiosity. The caracters are similar too, the story is captivating. 

ElisaNoIppo says...

both very interesting and dark. Also have a good twist. Without spoiling mirai nikki becomes bery confusing especially because of the girl whilst death parade confuses the characters playing. Both worth the watch 

Ozwald says...

If you enjoy psychological anime that involve High Stakes Games that put life or death on the line then both animes are great choices. Watching one reminds you a lot about the other, especially the "twist" on each game to fit the story. 

Pearbble says...

It's crazier than Death Parade and there is less emotion but the psychological and thriller part is there.

Kari5 says...

If you're a fan of the high stakes game genre, I'd also recommend checking out Extreme Escape. Both Death Parade and Extreme Escape are about strangers who are gathered together to play a damgerous game that has mysterious grave consequences. They're both great high-tension thrillers. Unfortunately, because Extreme Escape is a promotional video only, you'll have to pick up the video game for the ending.
