In the year 1986, eighteen people travel to the remote Rokkenjima island for Kinzo Ushiromiya to pick a new head of the family, as he only has a short time left to live. A portrait of the Golden Witch Beatrice greets them as they arrive at the family mansion, along with an epitaph: she will be resurrected on the ninth twilight after a number of bloody sacrifices. After the first six bodies are found, questions are raised about the fate of those remaining, the woman in the picture and her relation to the family wealth. Will anybody walk away from the ominous island, or are their destinies due to be forever ruled by Beatrice?

Both series have a murder mystery feel; where one has a supernatural culprit, the other has a real life culprit. Without a doubt, if you liked one, you will like the other.
These series both focus around mysterious happenings while the main cast has to figure it out. Each series also has a real sense of danger for the cast.
Both Gosick and Umineko have a victorian setting, elegant characters, and plenty of murder mysteries to keep you entertained! Umineko has a more supernatural feel, however, the two are still similar and very entertaining for those who enjoy mysteries. If you liked one, you're guaranteed to like the other!
Both have mysterys and a cast that try to solve them. Umineko has more supernautral elements in it, but they are both quite dark natured.
Also, both features victorian settings.
Have you ever felt like the world would be a better place if certain people weren’t around? Such grim daydreams might occur when watching the dismal daily news, but on one fateful day, Yagami Light finds that these daydreams can become reality. By pure happenstance, he comes across a black notebook entitled "Death Note", whose text within states that whoever's name is written on its pages will die. With the aid of the death god Ryuk, Light takes it upon himself to rid the world of its corruption, ushering in a new era of purity one death at a time. But as Ryuk foretells, Light's actions will not go unchallenged...
Both animes have a supernatural element to it (Death Note uses the power of a shimigami, while Umineko is driven by witch powers) and in both animes, this element is used to play people out against each other - just like on a chess board.
If you like the scenes, where the protagonists think about solutions to certain situations and problems and are thrilled by how they play them out, both animes are what you want.
The main difference is, that Death Note has a pretty dark tone to it, while Umineko is a little more satiric, yet not less intense and graphic.
Both Umineko and Death Note have some sort of mind game going on where the players in the mind game has to contridict one another.
It's a mystey anime(death,murder), like Umineko.Death Note is About A Student named Yagami Light(or Raito) that found a a strange note.If you write the name of a person in the note,the people'll die.
Kagura and Yomi are two girls who have a bond that cannot be broken. While once they fought side by side against the supernatural forces that threaten the planet, fate had something different in store for these star-crossed companions. Yet to understand the present, one must first experience the past – a time before Kagura’s involvement with the Supernatural Disaster Prevention Agency. Always cheery and good-natured to a fault, the young Kagura first meets Yomi when she is invited into her home. Over time, the two battle malicious spirits and grow closer together – but soon, more terrifying foes begin to reveal themselves. A swarm of glowing blue butterflies and a mysterious stone are harbingers of darker things to come, and one thing’s for sure: Kagura and Yomi will never be the same.
They are both filled with magic, tragic romances or friendships and fanservice. If you enjoyed either, you'll probably enjoy the other. One is a demon-killing shonen, and the other is a witch-themed murder mystery based on a game, but they are certainly both in the same spirit and filled with gore.
I'm not really a fan of either, but if you are, I would understand why you'd like both of these.
Each of these series revolve around the super natural, have a strong mystery element to them, and have some very tragic relationships involved in them. If you liked one it is very likely you would enjoy the other as well.
The always-hungry Yako Katsuragi is a super famous high school-aged detective who cracks the hardest of cases with ease – at least, that’s what the general populace thinks! Behind the scenes, Yako is helped by Neuro – a maniacal being from the demon world who is looking for new mysteries to devour. Alongside local detectives and a helpful sidekick, Yako and Neuro will solve the unique and the bizarre cases that plague the city; but will Yako ever discover the truth behind her father’s supposed "suicide"?
Drama, check; mystery, check; gore, check. Although I have heard a lot of people who dislike both of these shows, I highly enjoyed both. If you are the kind of person who enjoyed one of these shows, I definitely recommend watching the other for a little mental exercise and enjoyable detective work.
If you like to solve riddle and mystery (and demons), you also may like it's wonderful anime.
26 years ago, something terrible happened in a middle school’s third year classroom. A popular, talented student named Misaki suddenly died, and the ramifications of that incident have caused each third year class since then to live in fear. It is now 1998, and Kouchi Sakakibara has just transferred into the notorious classroom, curious about the mysterious secret that his peers are hiding from him. He’s drawn to one enigmatic girl named Mei Misaki, a quiet student who wears an eye patch and warns him about getting involved with her, and continues to seek her out against the pleas of his classmates. And that’s when people begin to violently die...
Both shows involve alot of mystery, suspense and are focued around a series of deaths. Both contain a supernatural element that helps drive the plots forward in way that is neither cliche or forced. If you liked one you'll more than likely find something to like in the other.
