Similarity both manhwa

- isekai of course. From Earth to other world.

- Leveling system and rpg elements.

- Both ML don't let anyone step on their head. You give sh*t to him? He return the sh*t double triple to you!

- Both know how to protect their people.

- Also the world doesn't revolve around ML only. Other side characters also grow over the times.

CRYERN CRYERN says...

It almost the same in term of story and character development. Both stories involve mc getting isekaied and have to go through a tutorial. Both mc also have the ability to see the future and are keen on getting stronger. Of course, they are also very strong and always ranked 1st by a margin in the tutorial. 

MalkyWay MalkyWay says...

Hmm, I'm not good at explanations, but if you like game-like, slightly ruthless death games, then these are for you 👍

nitter nitter says...

The concepts are very similar. The get transported to some other world wo they can have something they want I guess maybe kinda like the concept of the tower of god. Yk climb the tower get your wish or something like that if never acually read it I'm watching the anime though. Anywho sorry for my terrible grammar and punctuation I just didn't feel like fixing it.

Uselessfecker Uselessfecker says...

Both are in fantasy worlds

Both get stronger from killing

Both are smarter than most isekai characters

The differences:

As far as I remember only The Live is the only one of the two which is technically a isekai.

Mc gets stronger faster in the second coming of gluttony

In the live the mc has knowledge of some of the secrets of the world while that isnt completely the case in second coming of gluttony.

FakeHanako FakeHanako says...

thier own world where they live is ruined so they go on a journey to change stuff or make their own world. make their own world is the live and change stuff is of second coming of gluttony. I'm just very sad of the ending of second coming gluttony and I want to read more. so if anyone k knows if there are more chapters/seasons there then tell me or if this is dropped or if the chapters are in proccess.

il be happy to know.

TreekoAero TreekoAero says...

both stories talk about being sucked into alternate rpg like world and both protaginists are very similar

Halfpicture Halfpicture says...

They both involve a main character being in a really bad place in life, but they they went to another world. Their new world was very cutthroat and unforgiving, but they still managed to forge a better life for themselves.

UnluckySituation UnluckySituation says...

Both MC :

  • Are sucked to another world - fantasy with some random people. 
  • Know about future events.

In this world is:

  • System smilar to RPG game (skills, gulids, monsters)
  • Place where you can only count on yourself

TheIndianChaos TheIndianChaos says...

Both are really awesome fast paced have a sense of growth to the particular MC who know information about the future and use it to gain more power than others

Tetwisted Tetwisted says...

Both similar yet unique enough to recognize them as distinct. Good for binge reading. Stories are okay, but I hope it grows more over time.

Family (brother for second life ranker and wife and child for the live) has been killed by some force related to the supernatural part of the story. Both of them are well prepared, as they both have a "cheat sheet". Both are really good too.

Halfpicture Halfpicture says...

Second Life Ranker and The Live are both similar. They both involve a character who enters a game-like fantasy world at least partially due to the death of a loved one. They are also both players that are very self-sufficient but do work with others. I liked both and if you like one you should give the other one a try.

Astar2005 Astar2005 says...

It was really good on how they are kind of doing it on revenge but to also help the people so they don't experience the same thing too

UnluckySituation UnluckySituation says...

Both MC:

-> Are comming with special item-> They are strong if we compare with others who spents similar time there-> Come in looking for revenge for death they relative-> Aren't afraid to kill someone

Omniscient Reader

Omniscient Reader

Back then, Dokja had no idea. He had no idea his favorite web novel 'Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse' was going to come to life, and that he would become the only person to know how the world was going to end. He also had no idea he would end up becoming the protagonist of this novel-turned-reality. Now, Dokja will go on a journey to change the course of the story and save humankind once and for all.

SleepingWeeb SleepingWeeb says...

There really aren't that many similarities in terms of story. However, in both stories, they get information from a book that tells them major events. The leveling system thing is also pretty similar in both stories. I know that the system isn't uncommon, but there's one more factor that makes these two stories seem closer than the rest. But yeah other than that there really isn't anything else.

They start with a very similar storyline. Pulled into anpther world where there have to go through a tutorial where they end up being the strongest. In the new world there are demons and stuff and humans have formed guilds... 

Both stories are especially different versions of the same basic idea
