Animes like mai otome?

Does anyone know of any animes that have like the same plot as mai otome? Like a master and servant who uses her powers for their kingdom and has the same type of stuff like the drama and funny/ action all in one?

Well, every anime is unique, so there are really no 2 animes with exactly "same plots" and "inter-working rules".

The most similar (and by similar I mean there is a master and his/her servant who fight other master and servants) I have seen so far is probably Fate/Stay Night. But to be honest it is probably much closer to Mai-HiME since main plot is to fight other masters and eliminate their servants to gain Grail, this cycle repeat itself as well as in M-H.


On page anime-planet the most recommended similar anime is Angelic layer, Stellvia of the Universe and iDOLM@STER Xenoglossia (which I have in my "Want to watch list").

Have you watched The Twelve Kingdoms?



Each of the Twelve Kingdoms has a monarch and a kirin, a mythological beast who first selects, and then serves, the monarch of his or her kingdom, and can assume human form. A kirin plays the same role as an Otome. Each ruler has his/her own kirin and if one of them dies, so does the other. One of the major stories of the series centers around a girl named Yoko Nakajima from Japan, who is suddenly transported to the world of the Twelve Kingdoms and searches for her destiny.


Negima - Magister Negi Magi



Pact enables a Magister to cast a spell, to transfer some of his/her magic power to the other person involved in the pact. The person who is involved is called Minister. The Minister, has to protect the Magister from any dangers and assist him/her in any way possible. When a pact is established, a card is created as proof of the contract between the Magister and Minister. Pact provides the Minister an enchanced ability and powers, transformation can only be performed through the Magister's activation.

The pact also allows the Magister to communicate telepathically with his/her Minister and summon him/her across great distances. There is two types of Pact - Permanent Pact and Probationary Pact. Probationary pact work like a permanent ones, except that there's a time limit to the activation of the contract and the contract can be broken at will.

Watch the Negima!? series if you want a more Otome-like atmosphere.
