Synopsis:

Thirteen years ago, the demon Kazan placed a curse on the continent of Arad, causing legions of demons to sprout from the earth. One young man named Baron also suffered its effects and is cursed with a demonic left arm. Baron now travels the land with Roxy, the spirit who resides in his sword, in the hopes of finding a cure. They are soon joined by self-proclaimed ‘Gunner of Love’ Capensis who literally falls from the sky; freakishly strong fist-fighter Ryunmei; and troublesome young mage Ixia. As they traverse a world of underground fight clubs and axe-wielding demons, will the party be able to find a way to remove the jinx on Baron’s arm, not to mention survive Ixia’s attempts at using magic?

Saiyuki

Alt titles: Gensou Maden Saiyuki

Saiyuki main image

In the mystical world of Shangri-la, demons and humans live side by side, watched over by a parthenon of ancient Chinese gods. But when normally-civilized demons start to go berserk, the gods require the services of Genjou Sanzo - a Buddhist priest with a magical gun, an evil-banishing scripture and a take-no-prisoners attitude. Aided by the ancient monkey god Son Goku, the half-demon Sha Gojyo and the demon exterminator Cho Hakkai, he sets off on a treacherous journey westward, with armies of demons, dark mages and angry gods all standing in his way...

Though initially it may not seem like Slap Up Party and Saiyuki have all that much in common, both series centre on a quartet travelling to fulfil their goal - and kicking some demon butt along the way. While Saiyuki seems to focus more on the fighting and Slap Up Party more on the comedy, if you enjoyed one, it may be worth checking out the other.

Even tough they don’t have the same plot (like the tournaments in shaman K), they have a similar animation style and a similar humour. The magic and spirits also appear in both of them. They are meant for the same audience so if you liked one you will probably like the other.

Patalliro Saiyuki!

Genjou Sanzou is a Buddhist monk who has been sent by the Emperor on a journey to find the sacred Buddhist scriptures.

Both Slap Up Party and Patalliro Saiyuki are comedy-focused series about a group of four companions travelling towards a goal. While Patalliro Saiyuki is a parody, Slap Up Party doesn't seem to take itself too seriously either, and if you enjoyed the comedy stylings of one, then you may well like the other.

Fairy Tail

Fairy Tail main image

Lucy is a seventeen-year-old mage with the power to summon stellar spirits, but what she really wants to do is join a guild - and not just any guild. She has her eyes set on Fairy Tail, a notoriously reckless and outrageous group of magic users who are likely to be drunk or destroying buildings and towns in the process of completing a job! While in town one day Lucy meets a perpetually-seasick boy named Natsu who, through a series of events, reveals to her that he's none other than the fire-eating mage Salamander of Fairy Tail! Lucy is finally able to join Fairy Tail and quickly begins to take on odd jobs with Natsu and his gang for fame and profit. Along with her fiery friend, Happy the flying cat, Natsu's archrival Gray and their overseer the invincible and beautiful Ezra, Lucy sets forth for epic adventures that leave an epic amount of destruction in their wake. After all, destroying a city or five doesn't matter as long as they get the job done... right?!

Fans of Arad Senki will also like Fairy Tail for it's similar humor. They also both focus on traveling/battling along with a group of friends.
