both Shoujo Ai :) with similar feel and pace.
They are both yuri series that are a bit on the realistic side
Yuri theme, awesome Aoi Hana. If you liked it, you must watch Sasameki Koto, though is good after the first 2 episodes.
Shoujo-ai "since of life" series with a little bit of comedy. Fumi is similar to Sumika (tall, with glasses) and Akira is similar to Ushio (cute and crazy).
both are cute shoujo ai animes ,very sweet kind of feeling, and deal with the relationships between friends
Really similar settings, characters. You couldn't tell Sumi apart from Fumi even if your life was on the line (:
Both sweet shoujo-ai, slice of life animes.
Though sasameki koto is a bit better imo (:

They both have extremely similar pastel-looking art styles and center around sweet, somewhat angst, romance. Just Aoi Hana focuses on a homosexual relationship, whereas Kimi ni Todoke focuses on a heterosexual relationship.
They are both light, warm and fuzzy romances that are very sentimental.

Candy Boy and Aoi Hana are anime that have yuri as central elements, yet unlike other anime of its genre, it is rather subtle and tastefully done.
What you have here are two atmospheric, carefully developed and understated anime about falling in love, being in love and developing relationships between girls whose bonds range from sisterly (in the literal sense, in Candy Boy's case) to romantic.
Each anime places significance in delivering excellent and likeable characters who drive their plots. Despite Candy Boy and Aoi Hana having some roots in romance, they are primarily slice of life anime that depict (at languid pace) the involving lives of the characters.
While the delivery of each anime is different (Candy Boy opts for a more comical and cute storytelling style; Aoi Hana's focus is on grace and realism), these two anime give us tales of girls who love other girls while gently handling their subject matters.
Both Candy Boy and Aoi Hana follow a similar theme, and have a similar pace. Both series are heartwarming, and express emotions very well. Candy Boy has a lot more comedy elements, whereas Aoi Hana tends to sway towards the more serious side of things. Although Candy Boy is only around 13 minutes per episode, and only 7 episodes long, this by no means detracts from the experience.

Well developed shoujo-ai stories. Both share a refreshing calm atmosphere with soft colors that sometimes can get really tense.
Both convey female relationships in a very similar fashion. Rather than showing you precisely what's going on between girls, they use dialogue and specific actions to show the characters' feelings for each other, and leave you to make your own conclusions.

Story of the adolescents. All adults are used to be teenagers. And all teenagers will manage to become grown-up.
Both shows feature how teenagers deal with relationships and become more adult in the process. Aoi Hana offers shoujo-ai elements as a sidekick while honey&clover has comedy elements that you can considered them as comic relieves. The tension of both drama show are not always high, cuteness and jokes relieve it. Both are recommended for comfortable, slice of life fans.
The pangs of growing up and coming into your own, first loves, true loves, friendships and social responsibilities are important themes in Aoi Hana and Honey and Clover.
Both anime have light, gentle and soothing atmospheres pregnant with heavy emotions. While Aoi Hana lacks the verbal narration found in Honey and Clover, Honey and Clover in turn lacks the visual narrative style found in Aoi Hana. However, each anime is driven by the characters and their development.
Despite Honey and Clover featuring university students, Aoi Hana's cast being composed of high schoolers, the depiction of each sect is realistically and carefully handled. What you have in the end are two anime with convincing, maturing and likeable characters with whom you can empathise and sympathise.
Aoi Hana focusses more on drama while Honey and Clover utilises a more comedic approach, but both are essentially great slice of life anime with touches of romance to them.

Both have shoujo-ai elements and a school setting.
School shoujo-ai romance with a little bit of drama.

Aoi Hana and Victorian Romance Emma are anime that are grounded in realism and gracefully present their stories to the viewers. They are both influenced by an air of romance, but they also portray largely the daily lives of those who exist within each anime's universe.
One story is set in the Victorian era in England and the other is set in modern-day Japan, so on the surface, it appears that Victorian Romance Emma and Aoi Hana are vastly different. However, at their cores, they are essentially very similar.
Both are anime that have protagonists who come to love people they are not "supposed to" by society's standards. These two anime detail the inner and quiet struggles that face these people who want to live their life openly but cannot due to their position and personalities.
Emma and Fumi are characters who exhibit a subtler sort of strength despite their weaker outward appearance and quiet natures.
These two anime have similar soft tones in the artwork and simplistic rather than over-the-top character designs. The musical aspects for Aoi Hana and Victorian Romance Emma are driven by light piano pieces that soothe any listener and that fit the gentle atmospheres.
Both are recommended if you can enjoy watching anime about two young women persevering in the best ways they can in the worlds they live in.

To start with, they are both yuri anime. There are tons of them out there, but the reason why I believe Aoi Hana is particularly notable among those would be the fact they are both written by a female author, while others just doesn't have the delicate emotions. (It's all "Onee-sama!" and kissing and kissing and it's done)
In both Aoi Hana and Marimite, it is obvious that, unlike other yuri animes, it tries to convey its message through series of delicate change in emotions rather than just dialogues. They are both gentle yet dramatic, and ultimately ends very well.
And they are just too damn good.
