Utawarerumono

Utawarerumono

A man awakens in an unfamiliar room, with no recollection of who he is or where he came from. His wounds have been bandaged, and his face is covered with a mask that he cannot remove. With nowhere to go, he decides to stay with his rescuers and help them when needed, waiting for his memory to return. Though his courage, skill, and wisdom quickly gain him the villagers’ respect, the same traits soon land him in hot water with the local feudal lord. Not one to back away from injustice, the path he must follow will lead him to confront his enemies, and his hidden past.

In both shows, the main protaganist, through a series of events, have gained leadership of a small village, whether they like it or not. Both protagonists also have an air of mystery surrounding who they are and what they are. The main protaganists are surrounded by a cast of beautiful badass babes. As they forge on ahead in their quest for independence from their tyrannical rulers, they discover who they are, what they must do, and and learn the effects of their actions.

These two anime are both very similar in many ways. First being the technology setting, both take place in an era where swords and bows are used as primary weapons of war. Magic is also commonplace in both anime. The anime are based off Eroge games, so both male protagonists are surrounded by lots of women. Both protagonists are intelligent tactical commanders, who end up becoming head of a tribe (despite their will) and are immediately thrusted into a war. Action is very abundant in both with some comedy thrown in for the lighter moods. Both are made by OLM Incorporated so the visual style of both are a lot alike.

Kaju Kaju says...

The two series are very similiar with each other. The main theme in both is a medieval setting where the male lead takes charge of a village and tries to see it through the difficult times ahead. They both focus on the larger setting of things, rather than the hero and his merry band, invloving a lot of "political" plots and background. Also the male lead in both series is covered by a mysterious story/origin and is surronded by a handful of women.

Utawarerumono is what Tears to Tiara could have been, if it hadn't fallen into the depths of mediocrity. If you still liked Tears to Tiara, you will love Utawarerumono, since it's executed 10x better.

Both feature a charismatic, and powerful leader, suddenly appearing from nowhere and seizieng power for the sake of people he care about. Both characters lead their tribe to war with much stronger enemy.Both Arawn and Hakuoro past is mysterious, and it's explained in the latter half of the show.

In both shows there are some army struggles, yet the deciding advantage comes from powerful heroes  gathered around main character. Also in both shows final enemy has similar mindset and methods.

Canal Canal says...

Both anime are based on a RPG game by Leaf and they have many similar themes: a fantasy medieval setting and a protagonist with a mysterious past who is the leader of his country and is surrounded by many girls and a few guys who accompany him in his adventures and they defend their country from anyone who wants to conquer it.

In both Utawarerumon and Tears to Tiara everything starts in a small village and grows into a full scale war. The protagonists in both shows are very similar in many ways, for example most of the main characters are beautifull girls. The main protagonists are very intelligent and use various cunning tactics to win the upcoming wars. Both animes have everything you need and want in a fantasy tale. You will discover the power of friendship, dedication, honor, and you will embark in a journey of sell explorance.

Wingedkratos Wingedkratos says...

In both anime, the main plot involves around a huge war that must be fought in order to obtain peace, and there are many deaths on the way. The main (hero) character also has some mysterious/unknown background that isn't explained until later on, and they also both become leaders (unintentionally) of a group which steadily grows into an army over time, both of which happen to be tactical masterminds for no adequately explored reason. Both main hero characters also must gain respect from a stubborn male individual who at first hates them. Also, both anime involve magic, the heavy reliance on physical weapons such as swords, angels, and gods in some form. If you enjoy war based anime involving planned out tactics with a mixture of politics involved, then I am fairly certain that you will also enjoy both of these anime.

Draconicfox Draconicfox says...

Both of these are focused on a bigger picture. They begin focused on a small villiage before the main protaganist arrives. Afterward the focus then widens as the protagonist group gains control over larger and larger establishments and fights against old enemies. Both Hakuo and Arawn are drawn into worlds that they don't quite recognize and somehow gain a following through the female protagonist who is caring for them who has romantic interest in them. Both gain kindoms and "harems" as the shows run their course.

TalesOfKage TalesOfKage says...

Utawarerumono and Tears to Tiara have similar story lines. For example in both aimes there is a group of people that opposes the current ruler of the kingdom that they live in and selects a leader that can lead them to their goal. Also the main caracters have both a mysterious past that becomes interlaced with the main story. In both series there are diferent races aside from humans (in Utawarerumono there realy isn't any humans but anyway). If you like Utawarerumono I think you'll like the other.  

AmethystxRose AmethystxRose says...

Uta and TtT are both wonderful anime. If you like the adventurous, RPG setting, small clan to form an empire/kingdom sort of feel, then you'll surely love both. While TtT has more of a western setting RPG feel and is fairly action based, Uta is more of an eastern setting RPG feel and seems to focus moreso on character interaction, though it does still contain quite a bit of action. Both have an interesting cast of loveable characters, and follow the basic plot of "Man wanders into clan, and leads them to greatness", as you can see from the other reviews. ;)

MrBlank MrBlank says...

I find both anime to be similar in certain character and storyline aspects. The anime are based off Eroge Visual Novels made by Leaf. The protagonist from both anime become the head of a village in which they lead to war against the ones who oppress them, thus the story proceeds as they continue to gain allies and deal with new issues while fighting for their cause.

If you enjoyed the mysteriousness of the protagonist, the personalities of the characters, and/or the progression of the storyline in either one of these anime you will surely enjoy the other!

At first the two movies might not look like they have much in common, since their stories and genres seem quite different, but they do.

First of all the main character  is in both the nearly unbeatable type, that has to fight enemies of his past and live with old sins. One is called Hitokiri (killer) and the other one Mao (demon king).

Moreover they both have plenty of sword fighting and action.

Finally they are both about creating a better world for those you love. Both main characters  try to protect the weak and fight against the idea of the weaker being unworthy of living.

All in all I think these two Animes have a  very similar feeling to them

If you liked one, you'd like the other. They both have a sort of feel where the people are just going on with their normal life when this other person comes into the picture and totally changes their life. If that made any sense to you, you'll know that you'll like the other anime :)

Shakugan no Shana

Shakugan no Shana

Sakai Yuuji thought he was a normal high school student, until one fateful day when time stopped. Watching in horror, he witnesses a monster devouring the "frozen" people around him; but luckily for Yuuji, he is saved by a sword-wielding red-headed girl that calls herself a "Flame Haze". The girl informs him that he has been dead for some time now and that his current self is merely a replacement for the human that he used be while alive. He is, she says, merely a torch whose life will come to an end when the blue flame in his chest ceases to burn. After this rude awakening, Yuuji realizes that he is able to see the flames of life in other "torches"; and after discovering that a friend of his is also a torch -- and her life is burning out faster than his – he gains the courage to live out the rest of his life with meaning. Will Yuuji be able to find his place in the world before he ceases to exist?

Both set back in the past, though in Tsubasa it differs (If you've watched you'll know what I mean). Both animes have romance, fighting for a cause, and the plot twists that everyone likes. :)

Well if you like Tears to Tiara then you are going to love bleach since its one of the best and longest out there. They are both sword users and both have many battles. While in bleach they fight monsters or human looking monsters, Tears to Tiara is full on human on human action, if you count fairies and elves human. They both include great battles and magic.

The Familiar of Zero

The Familiar of Zero

In a world where magic is a reality, the young Louise is at the bottom of her class. Dubbed "Zero" by her classmates at Tristein Academy (due to her zero success rate for magic), Louise (along with all first year students) was charged with summoning a familiar; and instead of a cute magical creature, the familiar arrived in the form of... Saito Hiraga, a normal Japanese boy who was abruptly teleported from his own world?! Can both Louise and Saito come to terms with their new and complicated "relationship" and (more importantly) help Saito find a way home?

Both main characters are summoned from another world/dimension. They both are sword users but in tears to tiara the main character is highly skilled from the start. They are both harems with many different women falling in love with the main character, but Zero no Tsukaima is more open about that. If you like adventure, wording fighting and magic fighting either one is a very good choice.
