Comedies with no central plot and about a group of girls talking about utterly random things and with plenty of references.

Same director, same no-budget MMD animation. Plenty of ad-lib, seiyuus telling bad jokes and going out of character. "I think this is a pretty weird thing to be recording at ten in the morning." Tesagure Bukatsumono will probably come out as the stronger of the two, but Gdgd Fairies is likely the easier one to get in to as it has less metahumor, banter and bullying but more slapstick instead. The cruder visual style of Gdgd Fairies is also likely to be easier for a newcomer to accept.

These two CG series have a cast of three girls who are good friends, a very nonsensical sense of humor, and director and writer Souta Sugahara.

CGI comedies with unusual character designs full of surreal and whacky situations that will make you question sanity of the authors.

Group of chibi fairies with inconsistent plot and low effort CGI. The main difference is that gdgd Faires is an intentional shitpost.

Surreal humour, bizarre CG.

Do you want more CGI unpredictable weirdness? Well there you go.

gdgd Fairies really is a one of a kind anime and so finding a similar show is difficult. I'd say the main appeal of gdgd though is the conversations between the three primary girls that take place. Based on this I'd say K-ON! could be a good alternative as this is also primarily driven by the conversations made by the female cast, although with K-ON! it is 4 girls which later grows to 5. The humour differs a fair bit but the overall tone in both is light-hearted and fun.

Both are chaotic anime with a group of strange characters doing episodely segments of absurdist comedy and pop culture references. Both are cult classics (although Pop Team Epic has a significantly larger following).

Both shows follow a similar format, particularly with there being an improvised section at the end of each episode. Devidol also has the same director, and one of the VAs from gdgd Fairies (Piku-chan) voices a character here as well. (Aila) If you liked gdgd Fairies, you’ll probably like Devidol as well. Oh, and the opening song is an absolute banger.

Sequence of random happenings straight out of dream or nightmare (you decide), played as a comedy. The CGI looks similar and it was directed by the same person.

CGI? Check. Cast all girls? Check. Full blown randomness and popculture references? Definitely check. Yeah, if you enjoyed one of those, chances are high you'll like the other one too.

Both are CGI series with short episodes. Both feature bizarre CGI and surreal humor, but while gdgd Fairies is more relaxing, Popee the Performer is more brutal. Both are underviewed because most people don´t pick it up because of the animation, but if you won´t get sidetracked by such a thing, you should try these two.

Girls sat around a table talk about random subject matters that nobody cares about...or so you thought ! 
report Recommended by Robinne
Both series are about 3 female characters talking about random stuff, animated using low quality 3D CG. The type of skits used in each show also have very similar traits. IE, both shows have a location where the characters can create anything they want in a giant open area.

Koutarou Ishidate's ad-libbed nonsense comedies are decidedly not for everyone, but if you find yourself laughing out loud at the absurd conversations, meta jokes on top of meta jokes and deliberately terrible animation of Naria Girls, I cannot recommend gdgd Fairies enough. The grandmother of it's own genre, gdgd Fairies is the first of Ishidate's improv shows and in many ways still the best, with a variety-like setup that makes the adsurd segments come naturally, a set of great VAs playing off of each other and an abundance of spectacularly horrible CG segments utilized to great effect.

Cast of chibi fairy tale girls, short episodes and low effort CGI animation. The difference is that gdgd Fairies is a parody.

Both gdgd and heybot can be defined as being “shitpost shows”. They're most of the time very weird and make use of an unconventional artstyle, often grotesque or plain gross that can easily repel a big part of its audience. In this sense, they're really similar in being made primarily for the staff itself with lots of inside jokes and sometimes obscure references.
