If you liked Asterisk or Jinjuu Houretsuden, you'd like the other because both of them have an action pact adventure story line. Once you start to read, you would be sucked into it. It is both heart clenching and interesting to get hooked on.

Similar in plot in regards to how the story progresses.  I feel like one is a bit more believable than the other, but they both have a good feel for what they're trying to tell.

Magika Magika says...

Full of Action filled combat scenes, supernatural creatures, and main characters caught in the middle of epic plots they are otherwise unaware of, these stories share main of the same themes and overall feelings. 

If you liked one you will almost definitely like the other.

Magika Magika says...

Both of these stories very heavily focus on reincarnation, and the slow awakening of powers, and ancient legends. But they also focus on these "chosen" ones being normal people with friends and family, and they take time to make them human and real. 

Both also heavily include supernatural themes (such as ghosts, monsters, and gods), and intense fight scenes. 

If you liked one, you will probably like the other.

(warning though, Genju no Seiza is not fully translated in English yet).
