Synopsis:

Arika Yumemiya must embark in another intense battle, this time after successfully thwarting an asteroid that was about to destroy Windbloom Kingdom. The victory is short-lived when a mysterious dark force and a new type of slave emerge, each more powerful and more resilient than the Meisters have ever reckoned with before. Will Arika, using the power of the Sapphire of the Azure Sky, be able to rescue her kingdom from another enemy? And will her faltering relationship with Mashiro be able to survive the dark times once more?

ROD and Mai-Otome Zwei have a very similar feeling. ROD is short, action-filled, and has a good story. In both anime, elements of teamwork and special powers are abundant. The pacing and the feeling I got from these anime is very alike. Even the stories share some similarities!

Read or Die and Mai-Otome Zwei give off an extremely similar vibe. With a low episode count, protagonists with superpowers and both offering a similarly paced action anime, if you liked either one you would be sure to enjoy the other.

Kiddy Grade might be very different at first sight, but it uses a similar formula to Mai Otome Zwei if you take a closer look. Both have an organization that trains people with special powers to take on special missions. Include a few plot twists, a good story, and a close bond between its members and you've got yourself the same formula as Mai Otome Zwei!

InuYasha

InuYasha main image

Kagome is a normal high school girl who falls into a well, transporting her back in time to the feudal era. Upon her arrival to this world, she mercifully unleashes Inuyasha, a half demon. As if this isn't enough, she also discovers that she is the bearer of the Shikon no Tama, a jewel of great spiritual power, a jewel which has just shattered into a million shards. Now, along with Miroku the priest, Sango the demon hunter, and Shippou the mischievious fox-demon, they must set out to find the Shikon shards and defeat the evils of the demon Naraku.

For some reason Mai Otome Zwei gave me a true monster-of-the-week feeling. The most obvious example of a similar anime would be Inuyasha. It adds some teamwork to the mix and has both shoujo and shounen elements. I can do nothing but recommend InuYasha for Mai-Otome Zwei!

These two shows both feature girls that have learned to kick ass and take names. Though Rayearth is a bit older, the characters in both anime are encouraged to follow their fellow warriors in a battle against evil. Zwei features more advanced powers and no mecha, but the women still beat up on some monstrous creatures just as the Magic Knights do. The stories are simple but enjoyable.
