For Katase and her friends, their training at the foundation Stellvia is just the beginning of an adventure that could lead to saving the world, or seeing its end...
The fact that there's an obvious plot similarity is enough to recommend these two for each other; even the way the plot is handled is similar! The stories become intense but not overly complex, and there's a great atmosphere that draws you in. The characters are emphasized. Stellvia and Stratos 4 are, without a doubt, must see anime!
Peace Maker Kurogane takes place in Kyoto in the late 19th century, during the height of the conflict between the Shinsengumi, a shogunal police force, and its enemy, an anti-government faction called the Choshu. This tale follows a young boy named Ichimura Tetsunosuke who is desperate to join the Shinsengumi and avenge his parents' deaths by the hands of the Choshu. But in the midst of the bloodshed, will he be strong enough to survive?
Peace Maker and Stratos 4 are anime where the characters are the main priority. With a similar slower-paced flow and a good story, the feeling I get from these two is very similar. The story in each is kept interesting and is less oriented at younger viewers, yet it doesn't go deep enough to shake them off completely. I'm pretty sure you'd like Peace Maker if you liked Stratos 4 and vice versa.
