Thor and Rai are twins who live on an advanced space colony called ‘Juno’. Things take a nasty turn one day when they are kidnapped by the Federal Army’s Special Forces and abandoned on the hostile prison planet Chimera. A cycle on Chimera consists of 181 days of scorching heat and 181 nights of below-freezing temperatures – not to mention it is populated almost entirely by carnivorous plants. The convicts on Chimera have found only one means of survival – reverting back to the law of beasts. For the strong-willed Thor adjustment comes naturally; but for his naive and weaker brother Rai, things do not go as well. Thor must now use all his wits, strength and courage to endure life as a member of Chimeran society, rise above the rest, and take the only ticket off this planet: becoming the Beast King.
Agito was born into a world that is quite different than our own. Many years ago a brilliant researcher attempted to save humanity from its excessively damaged environment by altering the DNA of plants. However, these mentally-awakened plants recognized the inherent threat of humans, and attacked them; the end result was a stalemate between the forest and the few remaining human centers. Agito's home city is green with life because the forest controls it. There is an uneasy peace which is facilitated by a small number of humans that allowed the forest to alter them to be in concert with itself. Being that his father is one of those, Agito's view of the forest is not one of fear but rather one that respects the human dependency. Agito will be challenged to prove this relationship when a random event gives the humans, who still see the forest as an enemy, a new perceived advantage in their war.
I'm going to say you will most likely enjoy Gin'iro if you enjoyed Jyu-Oh-Sei not because they have the same feel, but rather because the atmosphere is similar without being the same. Taking two young boys with surprisingly different lives and placing them in suddenly difficult circumstances provides some grounds for comparison. Basically each boy experiences what could only be considered a rough awakening to the realities of their existence. They are then forced, despite their different circumstances, to physically fight for what they believe in. Strangely enough even though the worlds are different, both the series and the movie share a focus on the costs of human survival and the harsh environmental consequences of technological advancement.
In both Origin and Jyu Oh Sei, humans have to live in a world controlled by plants. Although the plots and circumstances are very different, the general ambiance of the planets is quite similar in both. If you liked one, you'll probably like the other anime too.
Both are futuristic anime about worlds that aren't necessarely technological.
Nature and plants play a big role in these series as well as the fight against electronics sort of say. the Headcaracters are also very similar in their way of doing things.
Both anime take place in a future sci-fi disaster world that has been overrun by giant plants.
In the early 21st century, certain people are exhibiting signs of B-cell growth, a condition that is incurable. Yuji is one of these, who chooses to become a "Sleeper" -- a person who is put into stasis until a cure can be found. The tranquillity of Yuji's sleep is interrupted 15 years in the future, in a very different world. Giant bugs known as Blue have invaded the Earth, eating its resources, and.. human beings. Now all Yuji can do is escape through the city with the ones who saved him from his inevitable death, towards Second Earth... mankind's new home in space.
Both series deal with the survival of people on planet earth, after it has been taken over by wild plants and animals. In both cases, although under different circumstances, the main characters try to escape from the planet and the way they organize their survival is a central part of the plot. Blue gender is a bit more mature than Jyu Oh Sei, but if you liked one, it's likely you'll like the other as well.
Both shows deal about the surviving of the fittest. In both animes the earth has been taken over by deadly plants and huge animals that is hard to kill and even harder to escape. Both main character and some of their friends try to escape from the infested earth to a new home wolrd, thought under different circumstances. Lots of characters die and only a few manage to escape. Anyway, if you like one you'll love the other as well.
In times of olde, humans live in constant fear of demons known as yoma. These vicious creatures can take the appearance and memories of humans they have devoured, thus blending into society as they freely feast on human flesh. The key to stopping the yoma lies with the tolerated yet feared Claymores - women who are half-demon, half-human, and fully fated to become the demons that they hunt. Meanwhile, in a village, the young Raki has been banished; his only crime was losing his family to the yoma. Raki is drawn to a Claymore named Clare, and together their journey begins. While Clare fights the yoma plaguing the land, can Raki help her in her struggle to retain her humanity?
Both animes have the "survivial of the fittest" theme. The main leads of both have a strong personality, and doesn't give up or back down when others look down on them. Both animes have the same "feel" (great action, a sad past behind the main character, and keeps you excited about what's coming next).
The Holy Grail War is a battle between seven magicians who each summon a mythical hero to fight for their cause. Shirou, a twice orphaned high school boy, had so little magical talent that his foster father did not bother teaching him about the war and its meaning. Thanks to that lack of foresight, Shirou finds himself in a bit of a pinch when he accidentally summons a hero of the strongest class, and is sucked into the fray. The Grail grants the winner any wish they have. But driven by an unyielding sense of justice and self-sacrifice, for what will Shirou fight?
Both Jyu Oh Sei and FSN are fantasy series with some action mixed in. The characters proceed to grow, although seem to have set archetype roles. There are several other small thematic commonalities between these two; if you liked one, you'd like the other.
It is the year 2267, and all that is left of humanity now lives in the 'Eden colony', a domed metropolis on the moon. Earth has long since been abandoned after a cataclysm left it uninhabitable... or so the inhabitants of Eden are led to believe. But when a young boy named Takeru discovers a photograph of a girl which appears to have been taken on Earth, he begins to doubt that this is the case. With the help of his friends, Takeru decides to visit Earth in search of the girl; despite the fact that it is against the strict laws of the colony and despite not knowing what awaits him there...
Both series for starters explore a world where the possibility of returning to Earth is the hope for those who live in the age. While in Freedom, the main focus is the discovery of the reasoning behind the secrecy of the state of Earth, Jyu oh Sei, instead draws the path to another planet which is kept secret from the main character. The exploration and mystery surrounding the hiding of these information ultimately make each series ideal for watching with each other.
