Mekaku City Actors and Myriad of Colors, don't have much in common, except for the fact that they both involve characters with specific special abilities... and throughout the story, they recruit and find more people with these abilities.

He runs "Kiri Kiri Basara," an affiliate blog that rounds up occult forum posts, for a shot at quick money, and challenges himself to the occult night and day to "hack and slash away!" the many supernatural phenomena existing in the world from a scientific standpoint.

Another Shaft series to complete what monogatari started. If ground control is anything like Monogatari, then MCA is definitely worth a watch!

Story telling style is very much the same. They both have fantasy elements. The animation styles are pretty closely related. The main characters have similar personalities.

FLCL

FLCL

Naota Nanbada is a boring young boy who leads a boring life in a boring town. His older brother has left for America, and the closest he comes to any excitement is when his deadbeat dad has too much sake. But things change one day when a bizarre girl zooms up to him on a scooter and smacks him in the face with her guitar. What's more, once Naoto returns home he discovers that this strange woman has arrived ahead of him and moved in! Not only does she constantly engage in perverted activities with Naota's father and flirt with the young man himself, but she also claims to be an alien who is searching for the ‘Pirate King.' Now, Naota must learn to live with this new intruder, deal with an odd government agent who sports exceptionally large eyebrows and the mysterious Medical Mechanica, and come to terms with the fact that there are a variety of robots and weapons emerging out of his head - amongst other things. Perhaps boring wasn't so bad after all...

FLCL is among my favorite anime because of its art and emotional load.

With Mekaku City Actors I discovered a work that not only focuses heavily on style but also manages to attach some sort of nostalgic/melancholic feel to it. Recommend.

Both shows are quite similar, and the characters are a bit different.

As I described before, the personalities of this anime remind me to Kagerou Project's style. Each of the characters have different abilities and personalities, which aren't defined yet.

If you liked this series you'll enjoy both of these.
