TOP 3 TWIN SERIES

Copy & Paste Series

Anime Series Overlapping Each Other

So as the title says, this post will be talking about anime series that are overlapping each other, or what I like to call "Twin Series". These series are basically the same story with different characters, and it's just annoying to look at how people have lost creativity. However, it's also kinda fun seeing these twin series competing with each other to be the more popular one.

Copying is not wrong, a great somebody told me that "Inspiration didn't just come out of nowhere, it came from something that's already been made". In this case, anime series trying to become popular, trying to swim to the surface inspired by more popular series in the same genre. A good example of good copying, is SAO and Log Horizon. Both of them talk about MMORPG, and both of them had main characters stuck inside the game. At first glance, it does look like Log Horizon is trying to copy SAO to the core. But if you actually watch the series, you'll find that Log Horizon is not really the same like SAO, so does the other series like Accel World, Overlord, etc.

Another example of good copying is Koutetsujou no Kabaneri. It's obvious that this series is pretty similar to Shingeki no Kyojin. However, KnK has their own unique universe in which instead of giant humanoid creature, the use Kabaneri as the enemy. In SnK, only a group of chosen people who're allowed to go outside the wall, and they're even equipped with maneuver gears while in KnK they use the Koutetsujou, a impenetrable steam train. They're both telling the story about human race survival, and even starting with the exact same story.

Do you get it now? It's basically "You can copy my homework, just change some things a little bit".

Now onto the list :

1. Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry vs Gakusen Toshi Asterisk

This one has the same start, same harem style, same school fighting concept, same tournament concept, and so on. In my opinion, RKnC is obviously better, but for some reason it's really underrated so the twin counterpart got a second season instead (I don't know why). The only difference I can find between them is that Gakusen Toshi Asterisk is progressing in faster pace compared to the twin counterpart.

2. Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut vs Masou Gakuen HxH

Now these are some boobs. Both of them talk about mecha and both of them starting with Infinity Stratos start in where the main guy enters girls only school in a world of girls only system. This guy is a special guy cause he is the only one who can operate the mecha like girls, and also he has a special connection/position in the academy. Like a big sister who's the headmaster or something.

3. Shokomeza vs Saekano

These are basically the exact same anime. Majority of people agreed that Saekano is better, but I can't really tell because apparently I watched Shokomeza first and I didn't even finished watching it. When I started Saekano, it really piss me off how these series have the exact same story. Saekano got second season though, so if you want to watch, I suggest watch Saekano first.

So those are the twin series that are similar to each other. Do you know some more twin series? let me know in the comment, also, which one of these twins do you prefer? Is your opinion go with the majority of people or are you standing by yourself?
