Yami Shibai

Short horror/creepy stories about monsters and urban legends. Both have experimental animation style that might seem cheap at first but actually helps setting up the atmosphere. 

Both have really short episodes and are of the horror genre. They have similar art styles that fit the story they are telling (both are episodic as well). If you enjoyed the horror-like themes in one, you will likely enjoy the other! 

Same atmosphere, same art style and interesting horror stories. 

-Horror -Same animation style -Jumpscares -Show different stories... though Kagewanai has more of a plot -Monsters of some sort 

# Both are Horror Story, # Both are Stort Tales, # Both have Peculiar way to tell the stories; # No fixed characters # No Necessery Order for wathing the episodes, # Both have interesting animation forms  

Both are horror anime that have individual stories for each short episode. Yami Shibai and Kowabon each feature an art style very unique themselves which adds to the already creepy atmosphere. Also, each anime has an ED that breaks the tension from the show, but it's a nice way to calm down if you were extra frightened. Overall, both anime are very, very similar and good and quick watches.  

Both are horror stories with animation styles unusual and short duration in each chapter. 

Horror stories with unique graphics and unique storytelling styles that add to the impression of horror, each episode has a different story, even though the duration is short, it's enough to fulfill your nightmare fuels. 

both short horror stories 

They both consist of short horror stories and they're both creepy. I recommend it for those reasons alone. 

Short series that in a short time tell horror stories with a traditional animation and also with original styles. They show stories based on urban legends. 

they both have short episodes and both tell horror stories  

Both are creepy stories which jump from one person to another to tell their story, the only thing that stays the same is Enma Ai and her ´´team´´ and in yami shibai the Story teller. You pretty much get how the system works in both series after the second episode and you already have a pretty good idea of it after the first episode, in jigoku shoujo it always ends with someone getting banished to hell and in Yami shibai it always ends in some creepy way. - on a side note both series should preferably be watched at night and/or in a dark room to get the full effect of the creepiness read more 

Both are japanese traditional horror stories.  

If you have a taste for Japanese Ghost Stories or Japanese Urban legends, then this series titled Yami Shibai is a perfect recommendation for it. Each episode of this series deals with one separate ghost story from Japan, and the runtime of each episode being approximately 05:00 minutes. Compiled in three separate seasons, each season carrying 13 episodes; Yami Shibai is a perfect must watch especially if you want to spend your weekends alone and are looking for thrills. Hundred Stories is a similar series in the nature that each episode of Hundred Stories encircles a separate ghastly happening in the ancient Japan.
