Carole & Tuesday

Two beautiful souls collide via the power of music. 

Both feature characters that come together to face tribulations of the music scene. The performances are mainly sung in English (with some exceptions) and both have similar ensemble of characters that support each other in their rise to stardom in the social media age. The showcase of song genres from both shows range from contemporary Pop, Indies, R&B, EDM and Rap; performed by famous singers and performers from around the world (and Youtube space). Carole & Tuesday have a Sci-Fi take; whereas Ya Boy Kongming is more of a Reverse Isekai / Tensei genre. 

Both explore musical depth & the power of duettes; real-world music are both taken into account. They both highlight the importance of finding your own music style. 

Besides one huge difference that Carole & Tuesday is an anime about music and Megalo Box is about fighting, there are a lot of similar things between them. The available technology that main characters choose not to use, the journey from nothing and poverty to the top, people that help them get to the top, the amazing quality and execution of the anime itself. I think there are and will be a lot more similarities but there is one thing I'm certain about - both of them are worth your time. 

it has a lot of passionate singing and lgbtq+ representation! 

Both involves music. The difference being Beck is about the story of a band while the latter a duo. They also sing English in most of the songs in the anime  

A similar theme in AI generated music and the paradox surrounding this concept. 

Carole & Tuesday and Violet Evergarden aren't similar in terms of stories, but the feels in both of them aren't too different either. I really can't say anything other than that. Both animation styles are very polished too, probably what gives the most similarity.  

Both anime feature characters who are trying to prove themselves and overcome their trials and tribulations. While one is set in a futuristic sci-fi setting and the other is in a current day Japan school life, music is what really ties them together. You will watch full and soothing performances (plus some EDM inspired music in Carole & Tuesday) with acoustic instruments (koto and guitar/piano) in both anime which can also be incredibly inspiring. Overall, both shows are very wholesome.  

Both shows are directed by Shinichiro Watanabe and are about music with the main performers being a person from a rich family and someone whose working hard to try and make ends meet. Essentially, Carole and Tuesday is Kids on the Slope with the main characters being females and in a futuristic setting like that in Cowboy Bebop. 

Despite being of completely different genres, Carole & Tuesday and Little Witch Academia genuinely share similar motives. The main characters of each share a passion for what they pursue, both of them embarking on a "journey" with others in order to achieve their goal with a couple of bumps and forks in the road. Overall, if you decide to take my word for it, I believe you'll genuinely fall in love with the characters as in both shows they go through a great deal of character development.  

Both Anime have beautiful music. Both Anime have lovable characters. Both Anime inspires you to follow your dream no matter your situation and where you come from. Both Anime teaches you that one person can make a difference in another person's life. Healthy Rivalry is Good. You cannot do everything alone. 

Planetes and Carole & Tuesday both feature strong female lead characters, an eccentric but down to earth cast and a simple but rather beautiful story with cheesy morals! Both follow a career within a sci-fi world! 

Both are based on music and they both have some pretty hot chicks 

Both stories shows the journey of young girls that go in the adventure of reaching their dreams, no matter the risks and hardship they would face. They both give this feeling that everything is possible if you put your mind to it and work hard to succeed. 

Both shows are music centered with unique but relatable and inspiring characters characters and fell-good friendship elements. Though there are differences such as Carole &Tuesday being sci-fi while Bocchi the Rock is slice of life, both have a great plot with some comedy elements.  

Two series focused on the struggles and determination of earnest, passionate underdogs. Neither series are trying to redefine the underdog narrative, which would be very rare to see. What we have are relatable characters dealing with realistic situations. If you love an underdog story then you should consider this recommendation.  

Aspirer. C&T and Monochrome both follow those who wish to make it big in the music industry, undertaking what is a journey they probably won't forget about. C&T's methods of going such ways involve a much more sophisticated way of doing so than Monochrome's comedic take on the path, though, they both still follow the general route of learning and building a team of individuals needed for glory on the big stage. Both are also somewhat futuristic, Monochrome being a literal robot compared to the super society of C&T. Both are pretty good anime, though Monochrome is to pass time really, compared to a fully-fledged interesting story of two girls and their road to fame, that is C&T. read more 

I know this may be a werid comparison but hear me out. -Both deal with poltical views that deal with real life topics that need to be discussed more. (ex. poverty, people of lower or upper classes, how not everyone is as they seem etc.) -Both can get pretty real even if they seem like light hearted and fun shows. -And both have great animation, soundtrack, voice actors, even if the story at some points feel off or like every episode is just a new story, both have pretty good plots and endings. 

Both have a clearly unique style in animation and are also incredible Netflix originals 

This is a weird comparison to make, since the stories of these two anime are quite different. Cowboy Bebop is about existential loneliness and being a cowboy, while Carole & Tuesday is about the power of human connection and being a musician. Still, Carole & Tuesday was clearly heavily influenced by Cowboy Bebop. Both anime have a strong sense of place, a miniseries format with a clear ending in sight, and slower pacing, making them overall feel more artistic. They both include respectful portrayals of gender noncomformity and queerness. More obviously, they both have futuristic sci-fi settings that are still gritty and "real" (as opposed to shiny and alien). If you liked one for its overal thoughtfulness and sci-fi elements, you may like the other. read more 

Both are musical coming-of-age stories.  

The shows are about the 2 main characters trying to make it in their desired fields. But while trying to make it, they meet a lot of resistance due to different circumstances and people. They do however have a few people close to them, that helps them to achieve their dreams. 

Both stories involve a single girl or a group of girls that gain experience in the world of show business, learning about the ins and outs of it while slowly becoming more and more famous. Skip Beat, however, has romance, while Carole and Tuesday has more of a science fiction element. If you like hearing about celebrities, idols, and show business overall, you'll like either anime, because both feature characters who are thrown into the limelight! 

If you like the futuristic space aspect of Carole & Tuesday, consider watching Space Dandy! Both have really great animation and music, and cute robots. they were also both directed by Shinichiro Watanabe! the plots are wildly different however, although carole & tuesday has one filler-esque episode that feels similar to space dandy. 

Both animes have main girl characters who are on a journey together.  

These two anime share similarities in their musical themes and the focus on the journey of aspiring musicians. Both series follow the adventures of young, talented girls pursuing their dreams in the music industry. Carole & Tuesday excels at showcasing a story of two girls from different backgrounds coming together to create soulful music, while Show By Rock features a fantastical world where bands battle through music. There is plenty of emphasis at the way in which the power of music connects people, the challenges faced by budding artists, and the growth of friendships formed through their shared passion for music. 

Bakuman and Carole & Tuesday are both similar in the way that they're both about 2 people who meet, become best friends, and try to make it big in the industry (manga and music respectively) together. Both stories follow their path to fame as they try to make quality works of art to reach the world. Both stories have a wide array of interesting side characters who also work in the field. They both contain a rival character who you can't help but root for. They both have a lot of insight and realistic points about the music & manga-making process. 

Both animes are about two people from completely different upbringings "worlds" come together and try to be friends. Both have similar color, art style and great OST Supporting character is also well-developed  

Two series with passionate underdogs trying to succeed in a competitive environment. Carole and Tuesday become fast friends after a fateful encounter and decide to succeed in the music industry with their unconventional music. Junpei forms a friendly rivalry with Ruou after being inspired by his talent and decide to pursue his secret passion for ballet despite his complete lack of formal training. Will hard work and persistence be enough for these characters to reach their goals?  

Both contain a science fiction theme, whether underlying or right upfront. Both also involve sets of characters that bring themselves up to become more successful or more famous, as well as characters who are already well ahead but struggle with their own psychological inner beasts as both shows go onwards and upwards. The sole difference is that Carole & Tuesday deals with celebrities, while Uchuu Kyoudai deals with astronauts. 

Both shows feature competitions with a scrappy MC vs. a rival who's willing to give up their souls to win. Side characters have deep backstories. Both shows treat their subjects with love and care. LGBT themes. Oh and both shows start with viral videos! 

Both focus on the musical abilities of the two main characters & their connections to one another. Furthermore, using real-world anthems & tracks as part of the story's development. Performances are also large features for both anime; emotional, gripping & tearjerking in some cases. It explores how different backgrounds influence music & how it can be projected to overcome insecurity and thus to find harmony in doing so.
