I find some similarities between both series, although the projects' proposals are different:

- Both tell a different story per episode, but in After Dark are connected and in GFN not (just the constant proposal of Nanno being the new classmate).

- Both are open to show violence, blood or sexual content.

- The series uses supernatural recourses. AD is into demons, ghost and witchcraft stuff, while GFN is more fantasy and dystopia.

- The protagonists of each story are grey characters, with a dark side and impulses.

- There is a character that remains in the background of all stories, Nanno and Dao (But Dao doesn't have so much appearance as Nanno).

- Also, Nanno and Dao look alike, not only in the physic side (the mole under the eye) and their typically beauty of a femme fatale, but both are mysterious characters of indefinite identity who act with no particular reason more than finding fun, both have a maniacal and creepy laugh.

Both revolve around exposing hidden truths and societal issues within a school setting. They feature a mysterious main character, Nanno in Girl from Nowhere and Teacher Win in Homeroom, who challenges students through extreme methods to reveal their secrets and hypocrisies. Both series tackle themes of bullying, social pressure, and justice, though Girl from Nowhere has a supernatural element, while Homeroom is more grounded in realism.

Both titles represent people who, when triggered emotionally by hate or envy, begins to show their true vengeful selves.

The two are anthology series that deal with some pretty messed up people. GFN is much better written, but both are good. Episodes 2,4, and 7 of TDDUP are really good, I loved them.

A mystical person appears in order to bring out the dark side of human beings. The motivation is not totally clear, but both main characters seem to enjoy the suffering they create.

Both series have the same girl play different characters in each episode that consists of unconnected stories.

Both thai shows focus on mutiple characters and their stories/struggles etc.. they have similar themes of jealousy, hatred, revenge, consequences of actions and how things can easily sprial out of control etc and have a similar feel to me. The characters that connect all the story (in GFN Nanno and in AGTTPYH the shop owner) are supernatural and hard to define beings that are seemingly immortal. Girl from Nowhere is alot more episodic though.

Other than taking place primarily in schools, the plots are not similar at all, but both of these shows are very unique. Both have a weird vibe to them I cannot describe.

If you like the deep psychological, dark, and revenge aspects of "revenge", then watch "Girl from Nowhere".
Recommended by l0v3
This movie is like the Show but better by 1000%!
Both antiheros are Godlike, and the movie has solid plot unlike the anime/show
Recommend watching the movie if you liked Girl from nowhere and the Dark plotlines.

Similar aspect of revenge drama, Main antihero are god like
Recommended by JaneKiyoko
in a school setting, there are strong female leaders who are willing to do anything to fulfill their beliefs. the dark plot of the series revolves around bullying, sexual assault and revenge / punishment.
Recommended by Contrarie
Both are a supernatural/fantasy thriller centered in school, and shows a lot of bad things people can do to be accepted in school and in life. In Girl From Nowhere the FL is the "ghost" and, in Detention, the FL kinda has to deel with the ghost.

The Girl From Nowhere series contains a certain feel and vibe that is present within some of the episodes of On Children. This vibe being a more dark and psychological look on society, using different elements to metaphorically display a person's hidden evil self. It is also similar as in both shows, each episode is set in a different setting.
