Michiko to Hatchin
Synopsis:
Hana is a nine-year-old girl who lives in constant fear of her abusive family; Michiko is a sexy woman who has just done the unthinkable: broken out of the impenetrable Diamandra Penitentiary. After Hana is whisked away by Michiko, who claims to be her mother, the duo sets forth on a high octane ride towards freedom. In the streets of Brazil and aboard Michiko's motorcycle, Hana and Michiko will look for Hana's long lost father, try to learn to co-exist and get along together, and stay one step ahead of the police and afro-clad Atsuko.

add recBoth Cowboy Bebop and Michiko to Hatchin show the main characters with unique, easy-going styles. They are both stylish shows with jazz musical soundtracks and plenty of action. Michiko is kind of like a female version of Spike with a little more passiona and a lot less finess.
Great music with classic heroes, the animation and characters are very similar, brave and super cool
Brimming with action, an intrusively cool soundtrack and sheer exuberant, B-movie style - as well as following a largely episodic format until aspects of the plot, as our lead searches for a person from his or her past, begin to kick in - well, aside from the fact Michiko isn't sci-fi these series are definitely peas in a pod. To be fair, Cowboy Bebop's story is rather compelling and a strong point for the series while Michiko's is the fatal flaw, but if you enjoyed one series for this aspect you may like the other.
Both very stylistic. With great jazz overtones. Both lead characters are in search to sme answers/people from their past. If you enjoyed one you;re bound to enjoy the others.
Black Lagoon
- TV (12 eps)
- 2006
Okajima Rokuro is a small-time salary man who is carrying documents for his company, when the ship he's traveling on is attacked by pirates. Kidnapped, he discovers to his dismay that his employers' main concern is to ensure the documents don't get into the wrong hands, even if it means sending the carrier to the bottom of the sea. Now, with his former life ruined and his kidnappers seeming comparatively friendly, "Rock" decides to join their merry band of mercenaries, and sets out with a new career to the shadier corners of the South China Sea.

add recBoth have similar atmosphere. Girls with guns and arrogant attitude in a criminal world, where only the strongest one survives. Both have a lot of action and "realistic" violance.
Similar argument, in different place but almost the same. Girls very agressive in a poor/criminal world.
Anyway are two good animes.
Revy and Michiko - the two ass-kickingest women in anime? Granted, Michiko has action combined with the semblance of a personal story (which doesn't quite deliver) while Black Lagoon endulges in a ceaseless orgy of badassery and epically maxed levels of the utlraviolence; but it's quite possible if you liked one you'd like the other.
Honestly- what more could you want from these to anime?
Honestly, the two are very different:
Michiko to Hatchin is an 'chase film' where the sexy Michiko breaks out of prison to recuse the daughter of her old flame. While Black Lagoon features Rock, a normal business man who got mixed up in a no-so-innocent company called Black Lagoon.
There are similarities, of course. Both plots have tons of action and are paced about the same- steady, and leaves you with more questions then answers. And with characters... While most people would compare Michiko to Revy, BL's hardcore and unstable assassin, the actual similar traits lie with Rock. They are both not very cut out for gangs, but they both surprise you as their character progresses. And of course, the sexy and dangerous aura of both aren't lost throughout the plot.

add recMichiko no Hatchin is a lot like one of the Bee Train girls with guns animes but without the supernatural and occult elements. If you like Michiko, you'd probably like Noir, and vice versa.
Both series are about certain women who have dangerous day jobs which involve escaping with their lives and toting big guns. No matter what the job these women complete it. If you liked one then you will surely like the other.

add recTwo girls, one with a gun, one still quite young, fleeing their agressors. Locations based on Mexico. The main difference is Michiko to Hatchin seems to lack the supernatural elements of El Cazador.
Both shows are set in Latin America and revolve around two girls: an young, inexperienced and naive one and an older, competent one who protects her. However, where El Cazador is lighter and more supernatural, Michiko to Hatchin attempts to be realisitic and, at times, grim.
