Anything exploring consciousness residing in body in alternative ways, like two people sharing a body or one mind existing in multiple bodies, even mind jumping into different bodies.
Recently watched some anime with such themes Darker Than Black has a character that can move their mind into other bodies. And Birdy the Mighty, where a character is killed and the alien girl must hold his consciousness in her body.
*Eva and Addie started out the same way as everyone else—two souls woven together in one body, taking turns controlling their movements as they learned how to walk, how to sing, how to dance. But as they grew, so did the worried whispers. Why aren’t they settling? Why isn’t one of them fading? The doctors ran tests, the neighbors shied away, and their parents begged for more time. Finally Addie was pronounced healthy and Eva was declared gone. Except, she wasn’t . . .*
*For the past three years, Eva has clung to the remnants of her life. Only Addie knows she’s still there, trapped inside their body. Then one day, they discover there may be a way for Eva to move again. The risks are unimaginable-hybrids are considered a threat to society, so if they are caught, Addie and Eva will be locked away with the others. And yet . . . for a chance to smile, to twirl, to speak, Eva will do anything.*
