Well outside the similar art and both being originally published around the same time, it feels like thematically Banana Bread Puddling would go well with the sorts of stories you find in Four Shoujo Stories. While FSS is an anthology, all the stories in it and Banana Bread Pudding focus on human nature and tackle their stories in unusual and interesting ways.
