Fans are eagerly waiting for the second season of the series “Kabaneri of The Iron Fortress” after completing the series “Attack on Titan” due to the many similarities between them.
For starters, both series are produced in the same studio. This leads to both of the series being produced by the same director, “Tetsuro Araki.”
And in both stories, humankind is attacked by flesh-eating monsters. The only defense left for humankind in both the series is to build walls and fortresses.
Idk if it's underrated or not, but I don't see anyone talk about Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress. If you like AoT/Tokyo Ghoul/Parasyte and any other humanoid monster-based anime, you'll love KotIF. pic.twitter.com/5Ue7zIJTz9

Humans are attacked by “Titans” in “Attack of Titans,” while in Kabaneri of The Iron Fortress, humans are attacked by “Kabani.”
Their hatred and rage drive the Main Character in both the stories due to past trauma towards the flesh-eating monsters. They both desire to exterminate every last one of the so-called “Kabane” or “Titans.”
Even though both the series are very similar, they differ in many ways and can’t be considered as same.
