Savage Garden has a darker and more serious ambience in comparison to Dear My Girls. However, both are romantic/historical series that have the following similarities: 1. The story took place during the Victorian era in Europe. 2. The protagonists go to an elite school for nobles. 3. The heroine looks average and doesn't appear to be talented but is notoriously strong-willed. 4. Her love interest is an arrogant and stingy noble who was appointed to be the heroine's study mate. He also has a clingy and manipulative fiancee. 5. Family drama - both series featured abusive parents and possessive siblings. 6. Lots of interesting side pairings. 7. Social class issues and intrigues.

Detailed artwork that depicts quite a bit of graphic body horror. Neither title holds back on the grotesque.

Tomie is mostly a series of independent stories that all revolve around the title character, a mysterious girl who keeps coming back to life (and sometimes multiplying) even after being chopped up. Franken Fran is a mostly episodic manga (some stories take place over multiple chapters, but most chapters are self-contained stories) about a constructed girl, Madaraki Fran, who performs just about any type of surgical procedure to save her patients (as long as they can pay for it, she'll do almost anything asked, no matter how horrifying), though the end result often is... quite horrifying and grotesque.

Dengeki Daisy is shoujo and Chou yo Hana yo is josei aimed for mature audience - but they share some similarities:
- Both love interests have a master-servant relationship.
-Older guy/younger girl combination.
-The male lead takes responsibility for the girl's misfortune (in Dengeki Daisy's case, it was the heroine's brother's death; and in Chou yo Hana yo, it was her family's bankruptcy).
- Although the male lead bullies the heroine (mostly because of work), he was actually secretly in love with her.

both have a feel to them of tragedy and wanting to find something again or do something they could not before.

There's really similar feeling. The MC is somehow weak boy, who's protected by others (due to joining some organization) and wanted by the enemies. There are also some monsters and kawaii animals in both series. And of course - signs of shounen ai (yup, just a signs).

Both mangas have a somewhat similar art style.
The main characters are both male and female.
The heroins have a "secret" that the male protagonist has to keep.
Similar school setting.
The heroins both live in shabby homes.

Both are done by the same artist and both are Loli-rape classics. "Strawberries" contains hilarious puns and one liners where as "Koro-Chan" doesn't.

Anyway, both of these manga contain the following: Incredibly Bad-ass and extremely likable main characters with unbelievably powerful bodies. Gore. both have factions that are trying to help or hinder one another in the pursuit of a common goal and their self interest.

-Fresh jokes in the sort anime
-Serve trivia things
-School life

For me, both series has a lighthearted atmosphere with many cute moments. The main female protagonist from both series are also petite and shy with imitations of cat/neko ears during various moments. The moments in both series are also cute and adorable at many occasions.

Both series also has inklings of romance and a lot of humor.

Both series also takes place in a school life setting~

In both series, there's the fun and lighthearted mood involving a group of characters/friends. They take on a slice of life theme with no direct story. However, what they both have is a lot of humor and catchy dialogues.

Both series are quite random and some of it does not make much sense. However, they are both entertaining in the sense of the characters' interactions.

Both series also takes place at a school life setting.

It's very similar. If you like himeyaka no tousaku I'm sure you would like desire climax also.

One guy with some kind of curse, many cute girls around him, pretty carefree life. Both series have a pretty similar mood, also they aren't serious at all. Both are romance comedies. If you liked one you will sure like another.

The main characters in Maria Holic and Mayo Chiki have many similarities. They both feature Cross-dressers, and have a reason to do so. Both feature a school-based elements, and cruel trolls. If you loved one you may love another.

both are Sci fi Space action CG, ST are more high budget though

Both are about loners and existential crises.

NHK is about running from reality, Yahari is about running from people. Or vice versa :)

However, NHK is about a shut-in in his 20s and Yahari is about high-school life, thus the latter is more of the mainstream.

Both are lovely, girl-friendly shows with similar themes of discovery, friendship, and overcoming hardships.

Both main protagonists are okatus.

Both anime are light-hearted slice of life animes.

Survival is the central theme for both anime.

Look no further for some light-hearted comedy.

both are:
have weird camera angles
have dark story lines
very much an arty type of anime
