Same crazy setting where main character is stuck with an option of marrying (engaged) another girl or experience destruction. (...)
Both about a guy who is forced into a marriage through a series of crazt events, and both are really funny with lots of comedy and cute girls as lead characters ;3
it is almost the same in both stories there is a guy who find himself forced to marry a girl that he just met...
Seto no Hanayome is a MUCH better version of To-Love Ru. Both shows got similar theme, having the male protagonist get into a marriage that they know nothing about at first. Definitely will make you laugh like no tomorrow.
Both are harems so obviously their are going to be crushes other than the main characters. In To-Love Ru Yukki was forced to be engaged after touching Lala's chest. In Seto, after seeing a mermaid's true form Nagasumi has to choose either marriage or death. Similar stories but Seto no Hanayome is WAYYY funnier.
It's the exact same story with exactly the same characters who just look a little different.
same story line... same... same....
loyal wife is very honor........
Guy is forced to marry a girl that he doesn't know. Girls are a little "strange" - San is a mermaid, Lala is an alien
Both involve a boy in school who get's unwillingly married to a girl who is not human. Both are full of humor and while To-Love-Ru is more provocative, Seto no Hanayome is just as good. To-Love-Ru revolves around aliens and Seto no Hanayome revolves around mermaids.
Very similar. Both series are about a school guy who's going to get married with the girl who is not really human. Extremely funny.

Very similar art and overall feel.
I was thinking Nagasumi and Ikuto were interchangable throughout my watching. They both give off a similar vibe as well just from character similarities. To top it off, both are humor induced animes.
Nagasarete Airantou is probably the ecchi version of Seto no Hanayome. Pick up both if you love the perpetual thrill in hyper love comedy.
They both have a similar style of comedy in facial expression and just plain random romance/ comedy! I find both shows hilarious and rather good!
Both Nagasarete Airantou and Seto no Hanayome have similar art and comedy romance as well!! when I was watching Nagasarete Airantou, its comedy-romance and art made me remember of Seto no Hanayome....
Hilarous comedies that take place in a mermaid/island background, with lot of girls all chasing after the male protagonist. Both have its own redundancy : nose bleeding or ill-treating, let you guess which gets to which ? :)
If you enjoyed this anime, you'll enjoy Nagasarete Airantou, Set no Hanayome has more comedy than Nagasarete, but Nagasarete has it's funny parts too, they both have romance, and they are both enjoyable to watch to kill some time.
they have the same humor and they both tell a complicated but really funny love story
Both start off the same way with the main characters drowning at the start of episode one. Some characters have similar personalities. They are also both romantic comedies, but are more about the comedy than the romance.

Comedy with young girls that all seem to like the main character.
If you like comedy/parody anime, both of these anime will deliver it. Both are funny in their own rights and will make you laugh through their humorous references.
Both about unfortunate boys that are forced into bad circumstances that make their everyday life a living hellXD They're are both crack humor as well^.^
If you're into the style of comedy, then you'll DEFIANTLY love Seto no Hanayome.
Very similar graphic style and sense of humour... Yea, it's true, Seto have a very-offensive-sex-gags-based humour, when Hayate is more like parody, but if you like Seto, you will love Hayate for sure.

Both animes share the same premise, a boy, not especially popular, suddenly finds himself surrounded by girls interested in him. A lot of the visual gags usually arising from misunderstandings, which result in the boy getting beaten up and called a pervert, are also present in both series.
Same kind of humor. Main character living with several girls. Same character types.
its not ecchi though but this will give you laugh trip like love hina
They are both love comedys and they are funny altogether. Love Hina is a bit more romance but Seto no Hanayome will rock your socks becauses is so funny. I enjoyed both series very well. I wouldn't mind seeing Seto No Hanayome twice!
Both anime is very similar, Seto no Hanayome is a craziest version of Love Hina

both anime have similar gag, school life and often use to cite other anime or film, the main characters are always in absurd situations and most of the characters are crazy! if you enjoy school rumble, seto no hanayome is a good alternative
Seto no Hanayome is pure, unfiltered fun. It's School Rumble on crack. 'Nuff Said.
If you liked the comedy and weird situations the characters get into in School Rumble, you'll enjoy Seto no Hanayome. It is even funnier and weirder.
They both have a quirky approach to comedy, having the over the top emotional expressions, and the most comical voice work for most of the characters in both shows, and taking everyday situations and turning them into outrageous occurances - make for great rom-com fun.

The drawing style in some scenes are similar between these series (the funny scenes), also the way they make the jokes.
The similarity between these two series exist not only in genres (comedy, romance, and parody), but also in execution.
Very similar, but it is not a rip-off at all
The drawing style and comedy are very similar, and both are hilarious.

Both anime includes forced to marrying.
Both very similar in every aspect.
A lot of weird humour and the typical "strange girl who falls in love with a boy who doesn't really seem to cope with that love".
watch the ep1 and you will see that they are really almost desame.. drop it if you dont like it
This is the same in most ways. arranged marriage and there Both funny as hell
|
|
|
Slapstick harem comedies with a fast pace and are lots of fun.
Both animes have a certain panache with humour that is SO wrong but insanely funny at the same time.
There aren't many shows that can make me hurt cos I laughed so much.
They're both harem romcoms (romantic comedies).
Seto no Hanayome reminded me of Inukami! because of its randomness. Inukami! is a lot more perverted and weird though.

both series are quite similar in comedy aspect (thought its quite different) however if you enjoy watching seto no hayanome youll enjoy watching kyouran kazoku nikki and vice verca.
IMHO kyouran plot is quite random(unique) however the story still progress nicely . so is with seto no hanayome
Both about normal unfortunate males that are thrown into a random marriage with a not so human bride and go through hell because of their crazy family and friendsxD Very random and funny.
The comedy and randomness keep these anime entertaining. Both involves forced marriage as the beginning of the plot. If you enjoy Kyouran Kazoku Nikki, then you might like Seto no Hanayome as well.

Both series have a guy discovering a girl's secret and trying to protect that secret, while also growing closer to the girl as the story progresses. Both are predominately Romance Comedies.
Both are great rom-coms. These two have very similar atmospheres in areas of story and comedy. The main characters in both have a secret to keep and their parents are very similar. Both have plenty of anime and culture references, also SnH and NHnH both have a side of ecchiness.
In Nogizaka Haruka and Seto no hanayome the characters are very similar. The main characters have a secret between them that they want to keep to themselves. Also the main character seto and haruka both are beauties in their school The parents are very similar too, the dad is rough and the mom is very cool and collected. Both are fun to watch and they have the same comedy style. If you like seto you'll definately wanna see nogizaka haruka.

Similar setup and feeling. Both series are quite over the top with its' comedy.
very similar humour and even has Urusei Yatsura references

"Umi Daaaaa!~" - Sanzein Nagi
Actually both shows have somehow with water, see, ocean... an mermaids!.
Plots might be far away from each other but their still both comedy and a little bit of romance stories. Oh, and both have lots of nudity for those who like ecchi.
even the drawing style (specially the eyes) look alot alike.
So what do these 2 animes have in common? ...
- They are both hilarious! -
- Based on a somewhat similiar plot regarding mermaids, school-life and swimming in the ocean... with a lot of funny twists ofc! ...Hah
- Seto is a harem while Umisho is an ecchi ... thats about the only big difference!
The strongest reason why i feel like these 2 animes should be recommended to each other is because of the comedy in both shows... thats where they resemble the most!
Hilarious plots that just keeps getting better for every episode! ... You don't want to miss any of these 2 shows ... believe me! ;)

Think of Magikano as SnH, only watered down with a lot of echi. Or the other way around: SnH is a distiled Magikano with ten times the laughter and a much better ending.
Hilarious and insane. Magikano is also as funny with some of the 'worst' facial expressions i ever watch on anime!

Although the two series do not have the same theme, the type of humour are very very similar (nearly identical). On top of that, the facial expressions Kenichi makes are very reminiscent of Nagasumi's. Also, Seto San does have many common point with Miu, as both have very strange mood swings and personalities. Kenichi's masters are very similar to the Seto family too.
Can't quite put my finger on it, but these 2 anime gave the same feel. It is possible Nagasumi gives me the same impression that Kenichi gives. At the same time, San's father and Sakaki of Kenichi gives the same violent vibe (down to the scars on their faces). Humor is often targeted at the unease of either main characters. Personally I think both are overrated anime too.

They both share the same theme. one guy and many girls. they're both silly, entertaining, lacking of real plot.
The main characters for both shows are very similar. They get in really "awkward" situations and pretty much every girl has a crush on them. Both shows are very funny. He is My Master contains more ecchi than Seto no Hanayome, but aside from that they're pretty similar in harem comedic fun.
|
|
|
similar stupid humour~
guy with lots of girls..."forced" into this situation by outside laws.
Very similars stories. Humor level is very good. You wont stop laugh durning all epizods.
|
|
|
This is for people who like love story and also to be funny.
|
|
|
Well both are supernatural anime. Ordinary guy meets supernatural girl. Both shows have romance, Shakugan no Shana has more action and Seto no Hanatome more comedy. Awesome shows!
|
|
|
Main characters have very similar characters. Style of humor is the same in both anime :D. Both anime are about little girl which have some problems and about a boy who help them, and only thing he get for that is pain :D
|
|
|
Both have a somewhat similar style and both are fantastic comedies.
|
|
|
Of course, you need to watch the main series before watching the OVA ;)
|
|
|
Similar art styles and humour in both shows, both shows have a blossoming romance between an 'ordinary' guy and an extraordinary girl, both shows also rely on inflicting pain on the male lead as a vehicle for humour.
Dokuro-Chan by and large is more graphically violent and a lot more sexually explicit then Seto no Hanayome..
|
|

Change the gods in Kannagi into mermaids, add a serious 'chivalry' obsession to Nagi, and you've got Seto no Hanayome. They are both hilariously wacky, have amazing character designs, and have very similar character personalities. There's the childhood friend, the bipolar idol, the crazily cute main, and other personalities you'll find in both animes. If you've seen one, I recommend watching the other right away!
|
|
|
Both contain protagonists that are first reluctant to get into relationships with the female protagonist but in the end they realize that they need them and fight to get them back.
|
|
|
Lots of comedy and people who aren't what they seem. Also lots of changes into chibi mode.
|
|
|
it s funny and a little ecchi
|
|
|
Penguin Musume = on half is a parody serial.
Seto no Hanayome = is the most parody serial ever!
so u must! ^__^ see it)
*many jokes, parodies,unforgettable serial ^.^
|
|
|
Both are harem, comedy, romance, ecchi series
|
|
|
The anime has the same kind of art style and comedy traits that seto no hanayome If you like seto no hanayome then you will definitely like Yamato nadeshiko shichi henge or known as Wallflower
|
|
|
just the fact that they overpowered the random parodies and people can't stop laughing at them. Also because of the whole force marriage thing. All in all, 2 awesome animes i'd like to compare to one another!
|
|
|
Both have comedy, harem, and ecchi that are very similar. The Male lead character's life changes in the first episode.
|
|
|
The main male lead, Kazuma, is calm, collected, and professional, just like Sousuke. Also, they are both somewhat oblivious to their feelings for their romantic interests. The main female lead, Ayano, is pretty, hot-tempered, and rough, yet caring, similar to Chidori. They both deny their feelings for the main male leads for some time, but eventually admit their feelings to themselves.
|
|
|
Comedy! Comedy! Comedy!
Both are romantic comedy, atleast to me. Both have relatively the same portion of comedy vs romance (although it does depend on the situation), however while seto no hanayome have more of the "over the top" kind of comedy, HnG focuses more on gags and little jokes.
|
|
|
The same story about a boy, who accidently met up with a girl through some weird process except in "Ah! My Goddess, the person got a girl through a phone call.
|
|
|
Fast paced humor with over the top characters. Although not up to the caliber of SnH, Magician's Academy certainly has the same "random," fast paced humor.
|
|
|
U all wont regret watch this anime :)...the storyline is very funny n all the episode is laughable...^^.there are some scene from terminator 3,if u notice...
|
|
|
premise of force marriage, with some very well put together comedy and entertaining plot. They both are also comedy/ supernatural (aliens and mermaids) genre.
|
|
|
While Seto no Hanayome doesn't have mechs or really anything comparable to them in the anime, what it does have is the same general atmosphere as Gurren Lagann. What I got out of both animes was the fact that both are just so off the wall that you can't help but find your self just laughing. If you're looking for another anime that just throws all reason out the window and want to laugh your ass off I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Seto no Hanayome.
|
|
|
Both of these series are wacky and comical. Parodies are also present.
|
|
|
The same crazy humor and a great cast of characters!
|
|
|
Kamisama Kazoku is one of the very few shows that i'd say even comes close to be as funny as SnH
|
|
|
both are hilarious, and have their maincharacters beaten to near death more than a few times every episode.
|
|
|
Both comedy epics!
both of the boys have to protect a girl.
but, in Seto no Hanayome, a boy has to protect a girl from a family of meermaid yakuzas.
:DD
both great.

Similar in that a marraige / husband + wife theme is established early in the plot and the events of the story revolve heavily around it.
Seto no Hanayome is a lot wackier and is rooted deeper within the genre of comedy as opposed to Ai yori Aoshi's heavier roots in the slice-of-life genre but they still share a lot of similarities -- the characters and some of their concerns being some of those things.
A number of characters in both stories also have a lot of their personality shaped by the families that they come from. In Seto no Hanayome, it's San and her Yakuza background, and in Ai yori Aoshi, it's the two leads and their families.

similarly hilarious , a guy with lots of girls~
|
|
|
I couldn't help but remember Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu when I started watching Seto no Hanayome. Both are high-school romance comedy in which everything is allowed to go crazy. Both anime are fun, random, and hilarious.
|
|
|
Forced Marriage, guy hating the girl, character developments and such and such.
|
|
|
Well the two are different since one is a love comedy and the other is more of straight romance anime. Yet what the two have in common is they both have to do with mermaids and both have some sort of singing in them. Both are great stories even though they have different approaches to mermaid love but none the less I suggest that people watch both!
|
|
|
Both shows are very random and funny except Gintama has aliens and Seto no Hanayome has mermaids.
|
|
|
both are greatcomedies, will makeyou laugh.
|
|
|
They both involve romances between inexperienced young children and the characters are both very similar. Nagasumi looks incredibly like Sakai Yuji and is as weak and uncertain of the circumstances as he is. Mawari Zenigata looks like Matake Ogata, both strong tomboys and Seto San vaguely resembles Shana, though personalities greatly differ.
|
|
|
the comedy and the romance are really similar, they both receive drama ending but they got happily ever after though the love hina is ecchi.
