-Jun Maeda is the writer of Little Busters! that also wrote Angel Beats, Air, Clannad, and parts of Kanon
-The setting is similar but the story's concept goes on a different direction. If you love Angel beats, you will love this anime (because of all these strong similarities).
I have the same feelings from watching both.
Both series involves the same writer, Jun Maeda.
LB! and Angel Beats! has a similar feeling that involves supernatural themes set in a lighthearted mood with its cast of characters. Both series also involves a group of friends doing various activities and having fun.
Both series has similar concepts and the main male protagonist has similar personalities.
Both series' soundtrack also has a smooth melody as well as a lighthearted OP song.
Both series has comedy, drama, and also some emotions as various episodes progresses.
Similar feel between both animes and same writers!
I just realized that Angel Beats! and Little Busters! are way more similar to each other than for example to Clannad. Of course it would be a huge spoiler to tell what makes them so similar
Both animes are about a group of friends enjoying the time they spend together, they show an alike story line. They are both Key works and they have the same beautiful art.
- In both anime they will be going on useless missions
- The plot is slightly similar Without going into further details
- A lot of MAIN character in both series
- Takes place in school
- Tear jerkers throughout both series
- KEY
I don't see how this relates to Clannad in any way.
IMO, Little Busters and Angel Beats are very similar in its themes and they can easily be close to relate if it was understood in a better angle. Even if they have different story.
Both were written by Jun Maeda .. the reason why, without going into detail, resemble the concepts of the series: 3
its almost the same stories and painful stories are also almost same and the creator might be the same
-about a group of students doing some activity
-similiar plot
Both have insanely hilarious "battles" or "missions" with a side of full fledged emotion. Beautiful visuals and created by the same person, Jun Maeda.
Beautiful emotional storyline with moments to laugh and ... to cry.
Both of the plots of these animes are basically almost the same concept, apart from the fact that in Angel Beats they are all in the afterworld. Just like Otonashi sticks with a whole group, Naoe Riki does as well. Both of these animes go deep into the past of most of the characters, and that's what makes them so similar.

-Jun Maeda is the writer of Little Busters! that also wrote Clannad, Air, Angel Beats and parts of Kanon
-Both are adaptions from visual novels created by Key
-Both animes's setting/story goes by an omnibus format, and have small arcs for each heroine that doesn't diverge from the central plot of the story (with the setting intact)
First, they both an adaptation from Key's visual novels. They also both have parts written by Jun Maeda. In terms of drama, I think you could say that they both have it but in Clannad it's heavy.
And their layout is starting from comedy, then turn into a romance then drama.
-Self-narrative protagonists
-Each girl receives her own arc
-Animes adapted from creations by KEY
-Drama, romance, comedy, bromance, school life, all along with supernatural tones
-- Both are Key's heart-felt Visual Novel adaptations
-- Same character design style
-- Puts importance on family and friendship
-- Both have deep Romance and Drama
-- Tear Jerkers
Same writer, and they are very similar in comedy and drama.
Both anime are made by Key and feature some incredibly funny gags along with serious, dramatic moments.
Both are masterpieceful works by Key, one outlining the importance of family, and the other the importance of friends.
Both masterpieces by Jun Maeda, that will make you laugh, smile and cry.
-Has the same feel/atmosphere
-Lighthearted and comedic but with interesting and serious stuff as well
-Several girls involved/harem-ish
Both series were written by the same author. They are both based on visual novels.
Both animes share the comedy, drama and school genre.
Clannad and Little Busters are both astounding works written by Jun Maeda and adapted from visual novels created by Key. Thus, the similarities in style and presentation between the two are enormous.
They draws you in with it's beautiful animation, stunning soundtrack, and heart wrenching storylines. Both share this magical world created of similiar weaving stories that captivate the heart and leave you wanting more.
While they are both harem anime by definition, they are done in a way that can be taken seriously; neither series is loaded with perversion or fanservice. Instead, both of the series focus on developing the characters through their interaction in the present as well as flashbacks from the past. They make you walk each step with them as you feel their emotions and listen to their thoughts.
Clannad and Little Busters are two sides of a coin. Not only do they both have the same target audience, enjoying one series consequently results in the enjoyment of the other.
Little Busters and Clannad were both written by Key, namely Jun Maeda for the second seasons of each show. They both originate as similar style VNs, that share a common development characters through primarily slice of life comedy before more dramatic events later on. They both originate from visual novels and have some overlapping storytelling traits due to the original format.
Also, Little Busters invokes a theme of friendship, while Clannad is more oriented towards a theme of family. They're both nice slice of life shows that shouldn't be hastily judged before getting to the end of the second season of each.
Little Busters follows a similar layout to how Clannad's story unfolds. They both follow a boy in high school and the main character develops relationships with many different people, specifically girls. Throughout each show, the girls eventually open up to our main character, and show their tragic backstories, or similar events that are troubling them in the present time. Our main character uses his friendship with others to help bring the troubled friend into a new perspective of life, helping them to be freed from their despair. Since both animes are based off the visual novels created by Key, you can expect similar dramatic events that tear at your emotions, yet both have enough comedy to balance out the tragic events. Both shows are tied for my favorite romance/drama series, and its to be expected as Key has a great way of creating characters that are pretty much impossible to hate. Definitely give both a watch, and you will see what kind of similarities both shows share.

In both series, there is comedy, drama, and romance. The drama is more dramatic in Myself;Yourself but also presented in LB in various arcs.
Both series takes place at a local school setting in a lighthearted environment. There is fun also at times, emotional moments.
Both stories are about childhood friends. In LB the friends have been together their whole lives, in M;Y the main character returns to the town he lived in as a child. If you like LB or especially Kanon you most likely enjoy M;Y and vise versa. Both shows leave you in a happy mood. They also teach you about one of the strongest things ever, the bond of friendship

The setting and concept is strongly similar yet the direction of the story goes on a different route. If you enjoyed Clannad, you will love this anime because both contains the same 'Key magic' and mysterious elements to the plot

Both have a set of characters with friends whom they have known since childhood with the very ambitious goal of being the protectors of peace!
Each characters share some of their dramatic/traumatic past. And both deal with the hard journey of growing up through the age adolescence.
Both LB and AnoHana focus heavily on friendships from childhood. If LB follows the exact story of its visual novel counterpart, both will also be similar in the intensity of the drama that occurs.

By this I mean that the VN is really similar to the anime. People that enjoyed the VN might enjoy this.
A lot of similar character types:
Wanko = Rin
Gakuto = Masato
Kyousuke = Capt
Kurugaya = Momoyo
Both are about a group of friends and their adventures.

There both based off visual novel games, with a simple dating-sim at its core. Both series seem to follow the "one direction character storyline" (forgive my bad naming senses) rather fast, in which you follow the route of one the girls.
Besides from this both follow the regular school type genre (with some drama mixed in).

Both: based on a VN, protagonist has memory loss, and "something is not right with this world" is pondered a lot. It's hard to give more information without spoiling both series but VN players of Little Busters! and fans of Key's works will understand the reoccurring theme. And that theme is in W: Wish.

Both are great and very sad anime adapted from a visual novel. Another similarity is that the in both anime the main character lost his parents.
