slice of life, comedy, quirky characters. what more do you want?
Both shows are outstanding slice-of-life shows that are highly entertaining. Good comedy...
Both these animes are just random & hilarious.
There isn't any plot for both of them but the story centres around daily conversations & interactions between the characters of the show.
Lucky Star already ended & IMO the most worthy anime to fill the place left by Lucky Star would be Minami-ke.
Like watching some eventful daily life of average anime girls? These two titles are for you. One is very laid back with extreme reference to today's real life Japanese society and the other is done in chapters-styled episode involving random activities.
Hmmmmmm, Both Of These Shows Have The Same Insaness ^^
They're both comedies and slice of life shows and they're both very random and funny. Lucky Star is a lot more 'laid back' though, while Minami-ke isn't as 'laid back'. Also, Lucky Star has several references to the Japanese culture and to several anime.
Both anime concentrates on a few girls' life. It's like watching the life of some random girls, only that it's not in real life. Both are funny and hilarious, and there's no plot for both of the anime.
Both are slice-of-life, episodic comedies with mostly female characters (though minami-ke has more male characters).
Slice of life, comedy. Minami-ke is probably better when it comes to comedy since the jokes are too obvious (the comedy in Lucky Star is related to anime and you need to have watched quite a lot to get all those). Oh yea, Lucky Star is much more slice of life than comedy (and vice versa with Minami-ke). In short, i enjoyed Minami-ke a bit more but they are both highly recommended if you are a fan of the genre .
The two anime are quite alike in spirit and humor. However, Lucky Star is more childish while Minami-ke is more mature even though it shares the same weird sense of humor that'll make you smirk to the very last moment of the series.
Both of these series are hilarious. One follows the daily life of three young sisters, the other follows the daily life of four high school girls and their friends. And there's no plot besides that XD Both are very random and fun to watch. Lucky Star does a lot of parodying of other anime and has a more slice if life aspect, but both series are still incredibly similar. I'm pretty sure if you enjoyed one, you'd enjoy the other XD
Slice of Life, Comedy, Minami-ke is a great and very funny anime with epic characters! great art style, very similar to Lucky Star because of its Comedy. ;D
Both anime have no plot, because both are slice-of-life. The most important thing: they're hilarious
It has no story line, each episode is as random as a lucky star episode.
There is showed a lot of interesting in the common people's way of life. Also they both are too funny ((;
Both discuss the dailly lives of young group of girls
Both are slice of life following the everyday lives of girls.
They both portray the everyday life of girls They both are comedy's and they're both awesome
Well, both are slice-of-life stories that center simple day to day activities. Both are very entertaining and fun to watch.

Same comedy style, similar art style, both funny and cute <3
Similar characters. Both are very cute, funny slice of lifes.
The humor is very similar, both are very nice slice of life anime though I think Ichigo Mashimaro is a tad better. In any case, both anime are hilarious and very entertaining.
Enjoyed the style of the humour from Ichigo Mashimaro and can't find something similar? Minami-ke is a series that works in a similar way, both of them are simply the daily lifes of a small group of people, in this case the Minami sisters. The presentation of humour is rather similar to that of Ichigo Mashimaro, nothing over the top, but enough to get a chuckle out of certain scenes. The Minami sisters are also quite similar to those found in Ichigo Mashimaro; Chiaki is very similar to Chika, though she's the youngest of the sisters. She easily gets annoyed by her older sister Kana who has major similarities to Miu. Kana likes to be childish and annoy her youngest sister and is usually a silly even at school, getting low grades and being scolded by Chiaki. Then there's Haruka, the eldest who practically watches out for the two quite similar to Nobue though she isn't exactly laid back. Each episode (so far) is presented with what the sister's do during there days, life at school, life at home and the interactions they have with people or each other which kind of works like Ichigo Mashimaro.
If you've watched both Ichigo Mashimaro TV series and OVA and looking for something of similar humour and presentation, then I reccomend Minami-ke.
Both "slice of life" with some similar characters (i.e: Miu = Kana), same comedy style and both very funny!
A comedic look at the everyday lives of a group of girls, delivered with excellent comic timing.
Two very funny "slice of life" comedies about cute girls doing cute things.
The two shows have a similar brand of humor that searches out the absurdity and silliness of every day life. There's just something about the timing and style of each that reminds you of the other in a good way. I was laughing out loud during both of these shows and would definitely recommend you watch the other if you liked one! XD
One reason is random storyline but the main reason is between our main characters of miu-chan and kana. Total idiots, ruining peoples life throwing tantrum, can there be more a like characters?
Hilarious slice of life comedy.
Slice of life comedy series based around a group of still in school girls. (They lie about Nobue in the anime version she IS 16)... Just less loli in Minami-ke.
Like Ishimashi, Minami-Ke is a show about nothing. Literally. Both shows follow the lives of a few girls, from school days to days at the beach. Miu (Ishimashi) and Kana (Minami) are almost exactly alike, its as if Kana is the Junior high version of Miu.
If you liked Minami-Ke, you'll definitely love Ichigo Mashimaro, and vice versa!
Both are great comedy shows with funny and interesting character and have a similar type of humour.
Also Kana's antics kind of reminded me of Mio.
Both have similar humor and are about lives of girls and whatnot.

Very similar style of the slice of life genre. Similar art, music, and characters.
Slice-of-life, comedy, and nonstop fun... What more can you ask for?
Minami-ke seems to draw stylistically from Azumanga Daioh in several ways. In short, if you loved Azumanga, then this enjoyable clone takes the formula of a character-driven narrative and throws in male characters. Kana (the middle sister of the Minami household) in particular seems heavily inspired by Azumanga Daioh. If you ever wondered what it would be like if Yukari and Tomo had a child this series is worth a watch.
Slice-of-Life with a bunch of unique school girls of varying hilarious personalities. Lazy writing means if you don't like one character you'll probably like another. Later on you can talk about it with your friends. "I like ____ more!! They are so much more funny!" Great conversation starters these anime are!
Humour is the same with school and life stories. Each episode is divided by different and small hilarious stories.
Another slice-of-life anime from a humorous pespective.
In short, it's the exact sort of crazy humour that is in Azumanga Daioh, but unlike other similar titles like Lucky Star (which I still think is really good) it doesn't actually feel like a direct clone. Sure, in a sense it's just sisters instead of highschool friends, but it's enough to make it feel fresh and allows it to have the same genre and style as Azumanga without feeling like a rip-off.
I don't really see how anyone could enjoy Azumanga and not enjoy this really.
Both are slice-of-life comedies primarily about girls in school. They both rely on comedic timing as well, but Minami-ke's jokes tend to be a bit more mean at times.
both are slice of life comedy with not much of a plot but enjoyable ^^
Both doesn't rely on parodies or referencing other anime shows for comedy,they both usually depending on the wacky and eccentric characters.
Not only are both of them slice of "school" life anime but both focus more on the tiny aspects of life rather than the characters that lots of other slice of life animes seem to do.
The difference is that minami-ke only deals with tiny aspects of life (in a hilarious way), whereas Azumanga Daioh is less realistic.
Both are from the same genre - slice of life/comedy, and both tell the story in similar ways, using short segments throughout each episode to explore different parts of the characters lives. Both are hilarious, and both are a must watch.

It has a similar animation style, same quirky humor and great characters.
Very similar animation style and humor , both have great characters
Minami-ke seems to be the twin sister of Today in Class 5-2. The most striking similarity is the "serious face" - i.e. when something weird/shocking/appalling happens, the faces aren't animated in the usual moe/loli (or whatever) idioms.
There's plenty of witless humor to go around, and a lot more pedo-fanservice as well.
The Minami-ke fan may be disappointed since there isn't really a Class 5-2 equivalent of Chiaki (there is a Chika, though), nor is there a Haruka, or any high school persona at that, but the cast is "diverse" enough to fulfill all the general archetypes as to not leave the viewer in rage at all.
Same type of characters and jokes.
Those both have a funny atmosphere. ((=

Both main female leads are very childish and similar in more then one ways. Also they both have mature sisters. Slice of Life and school type anime aswell.
You may find the characters very similar (Kana ~~ Tenma). The comedy in School Rumble is a little bit..wilder..but nevertheless fun and hilarious.
Similar lead characters, both school based comedies, though School Rumble is closer to the romance comedy spectrum.
The same kind of humour =D There are many anime that make me laugh, but with Minami-ke you're laughing all the time, just like School Rumble.

Same animation, slow story, peaceful music and very personal detailed characters.
Both have a simple & slow plot that very easy to understand, and they're both about the daily life of the main characters.

Same feeling. they both center around life and have pretty much the same humor though Minami-ke have more comedy themes than Kannagi.
almost identical laid-back atmosphere, concentrating on the way people life and their relations with each other. not much development in both, same kind of humour. also, nagi reminded me of kana

Several of the characters are very similar in looks and in personality. The teddy bear is in both, Kana is like the high-energy Mikan, Touma is like Natsume, Chiaki is like Hotaru, and the list goes on for similarities. Mikan and Hotaru are best friends and fight exactly like Kana and Chiaki.
Aside from the characters the only other thing similar is that they are both comedies.

|
|
Similar style of humour, follows the lives of high school girls in an every day setting, albeit Hyakko focuses more on school than home like Minami-ke does.
|
|
|
the randomness is somewhat similar and so is the humour
|
|
|
Both have a somewhat similar style and both are fantastic comedies.
|
|
|
Not as much sisterly love, but it's a cute and funny slice of life comedy about 3 sisters that live together.
|
|
|
also comedy but about otakus and with a plot
|
|
|
The animation is very similar.
The characters act somewhat the same. They're both pretty good shows.
|
|
|
the art is somehow similar and
both are slice of life too.
|
|
|
Same kind of humor. Both are excelent comedy series.
|
|
|
A similar style of comedy, although i found Minami-ke more amusing. The storylines are pretty much entirely different, but if you liked one, you're likely to enjoy the other.
|
|
|
semi-serious, kind of anime. watching it with laughs but without serious intentions
|
|
|
Both slice of life, random stuff anime. And they both revolve around a group of girls.
The humour is also very similar.
|
|
|
both very funny, good characters, and thecomedy is smart/clever/fun/
|
|
|
Okay... this might be a wacky recommendation, but I kind of think you'd like one if you like the other. They're both slice of life comedies that focus on absurd and hilarious exaggerations of mundane events in clever and surprising ways. Sure, one is about sisters and the other is about delinquents, but still... maybe you'd like it?
|
|
|
Gintama is also randomness but with less innocent cute humor...much less actually, but humor is humor, nevermind how dirty it is XD if you can laugh at it you're having fun.

If you've watched anime like Minami-ke and Lucky Star, then Manabi Straight would be a good choice to watch for another "slice of life" anime. Seiyuus of Konata popularly known from Haruhi (Lucky Star,) and Kana (Minami-ke,) as well as many other well knwo VAs are in this comedic anime.
|
|
|
The art style is completely different, but apart from that the series are quite similar. Both are about the daily life of 3 sisters, only in the case of Uchi no 3 shimai they are a bit younger and rather than friends and other family members it's their parents "suffering" from them.
Both series are really funny and light hearted imho.
|
|
|
Both shows are about they're everyday(FUNNY~seriously) lives. Minami-ke = everyday life of the three Minami Sisters (Chiaki, Kana, Haruka) FMP? Fumoffu = everyday life of the two main characters (Sagara Sousuke & Chidori, Kaname) Be sure to watch them both! ^_^

A few references in Minami Ke refer to Pani Poni Dash. Both revolve around girls in grade school. Hilarity ensues in both shows as well.
|
|
|
Main characters in both anime are schoolgirls) Well, maybe it's all what can be common - but maybe not ;)
While Minami-ke is more slice of life and school-relationships, High School Girls - it's fun, fun and even more fun.
So... if you still didn't grow up from schoollife - both anime would be a good time-spending ;)
|
|
|
both are anime about sisters. Minami-ke is more a comedy and BSM is just a slice-of-life but it has a very sweet story :)
