At first glance both of them seem to be anime for kids but after a few episodes you´ll notice that they are definitely seinen
Milky Holmes pokes fun of the classic type of mystery that shows up in Detective Conan series. The original Sherlock is also mentioned at times.
Both are about unlucky girl-only squads in absurd comedic situations.
Both animes have people with special powers. In Gakuen Alice those powers are called Alice. In Milky Holmes those are called Toys
If you're looking for some detective fiction, then these two series are for you. Although presented differently, these two series have some tastes of mystery in them.

Both series has a cast of characters who are eager to become detectives.

Both series has a lot of comedy, drama, and some mystery here and there.

Both series also follows an episodic theme.
Both anime take place in a school of sorts, and focuses on the interaction between an all female cast in an always comedic tone.
4 girls-Best friends(K-on!, Azusa is excluded from this recommendation :P)
1. K-on! and Milky Holmes is mainly on the fun and laughter the 4 friends bring, but not the main thing that brings them together.(K-on!-Light Music Club, Milky Holmes-Academy and good friends as detectives) They display similar character traits, like Mio-Herc(Elly), Yui-Sherlock(Sheryl), Ritsu-Nero, Mugi-Cordelia. More on friendship than main theme.
Both anime features supposedly the female decedents of Sherlock Holmes and Arsene Lupin.
Both are dedective animes and they both have cute drawings
Both have characters that think they're smart but they're really not
Both have really lazy MCs
Both are retarded
Both have pseudo-detectives who don't really solve anything that matters
None of them has real mysteries
Almost the same show. Four girls, unbelievably moe, and hilarious.
Let's just say that these animes are about detectives? Okay? Now tantei opera milky Holmes is about 4 girls while Kamisama no memochou has about like 10 girl / guy . Tantei opera is Moe so you can't compare this to Kamisama how ever i still recommend this.
If you've ever wanted to know what incredibly enjoyable commercials are like, look no further.
Obviously, the plotline and genre of these two shows very starkly contrast with each other, with Tantei Opera Milky Holmes being a comedic and mild action title, and Tamayura ~Hitotose~ being purely a slice-of-life with very light comedic undertones. However, the primary characters of both titles very much remind me of each other. In Milky Holmes, Sherlock is the air-headed leader, Cordelia is the boisterous one, Hercule is the quiet one, and Nero is the tsukkomi; in Tamayura, Fu, Norie, Maon, and Kaoru, respectively, fill these roles. The Milky Holmes characters are more lively and zany than the mostly mild Tamayura characters, but, regardless, their personality archetypes still match up quite nicely. Both, also, have a sort of moe fluff, but both styles of presenting it are different from the other.

Essentially, if you’re looking for characters who are similar to those in Tamayura, but with a more lively storyline, give Tantei Opera Milky Holmes a try; and, if you’ve just watched Milky Holmes and are seeking something a bit more toned down, but with similar characters, look no further than Tamayura ~Hitotose~.
You've got four girls with simular personalities as Amu's Chara. Though later on it becomes different. The clover symbal is also evident in teh begining and it has a bright coloring style to it.
CLAMP Gakuen Tanteidan + Zettai Karen Children = Tantei Opera Milky Holmes

Tantei Opera Milky Holmes is a lot less dry then CLAMP, but it has the abilities of ZKC... not to mention some of the humour in there. An enteresting mix.
Very similar humour, cute and dumb girls doing crazy and stupid things. Both also happen to gender-bend famous (historical) characters but it's mostly the similar humour and the cuteness factor.
CLAMP Gakuen Tanteidan + Zettai Karen Children = Tantei Opera Milky Holmes

Take the characters in Zettai Karen Children and in the concept of a Detective School like CLAMP, you get TOMH
Cute girls, panty humour, things that are out of a crack fic... a good, well written crack fic that is.
Very similar types of humor. Excel is a bit more energetic and adult.. but not by much in either category.

Softenni and Milky Holmes are more alike than what it seems. Yes, the first is about a club of soft tennis when the latter is about a bunch of detective girls, but the feel is definitely the same: they both share a cast of cute and stupid girls, with slapstick humor and crazyness everywhere.
In both of these Anime, you don't know what the main characters are going to do next. In Level E, you have a highly intelligent alien who becomes bored with life and causes trouble, and in Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, you have four girls who lack intelligence who try hard to help people, thus causing trouble.
The setting in both series are very similar. In Tantei Opera Milky Holmes you have detectives and criminals both with unique powers fighting each other. In One Piece instead of detectives and criminals you have pirates and navy with super powers fighting each other. In simple terms both series have the classic cops and robber war.
