Melody of Oblivion
- TV (24 eps)
- 2004
At the end of the 20th century a fierce war raged between the Monsters and the humans. The outcome was devastating for humanity -- as the Monsters had won -- and thus a new era of Monster-ruling began. These Monsters feed on children and can turn any human who sees them into either a puppet or stone -- except for the Melos Warriors who are the only ones able to fight them. Meet Bokka, a young aspiring Melos Warrior whose only goal is quite simple: to save the Melody of Oblivion and vanquish the Monster King, once and for all!

add recWith roots firmly in mythology, these shows appeal to the kind of viewer who likes a sense of "knowing" the characters from elsewhere.
Slightly cartoony looking animation styles, plenty of ecchi, over the top powered attacks and some wacky mech enemies make these two shows the perfect partners.
Busou Renkin
Some things in life are so bad that you'd like to pretend they're just a dream. Unfortunately for Kazuki, trying to save a strange girl from being brutally killed by monsters (and ending up dying instead) is an unfortunate reality. Out of pity, the girl replaces Kazuki's heart with an alchemy-based artifact known as Kakugane, so that he may live on. With this strange device, Kazuki gains the power of Busou Renkin -- Arms Alchemy; a power that will come in handy when monsters (and worse) begin to plague his town! Kazuki soon meets the girl from his “dream” (named Tokiko) in reality, and she tells Kazuki to get on with his life; but with his sister and friends in danger, that might not be possible. Besides, if Kazuki gives up the chance to show off just how manly he can be, how can he hope to win the heart of the alluring older-sister-like Tokiko?!

add recDemonbane was my second show to review for the 200 club, and I can honestly say it was not impressive. Because of all of its flaws, I would say it is very comparable to Busou Renkin. The animation style is very similar and cartoonish, the action takes a front seat and overshadows any character development and both feature a good dose of fantasy/magic.
The undecided genres of both shows, along with the tentative comedy streak seems to appeal to a lot of people, so I would say if you enjoyed one, give the other a whirl.

add recBoth series are about badasses who have been given a mission that they don't feel like doing. Both the main characters are lazy, who just in time find their purpose in life, and want to help out. If you the main character from one of the anime, you will surely like other as both the main characters are lazy, and supernatural.

add recI was somewhat hesitant about making any recommendation for Demonbane TV, but when pushed to shove, the closest I could possible get would be Sengoku Basara. The reason behind this is because both were based off games and to some extent both doesn't take the anime seriously. The only difference was that Sengoku Basara pulled it off a bit better...
Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z-Hen
1 person thinks you'd like this because...
add recboth are sci.fic, comedies and action animes. With plot is mostly about a gigant robot fighting different kind of creatures (or robots).
the only difference would be that demonbane is also magic like.
