They have a lot of couples, not too much humor, and an annoying girlfriends. But they are both worth watching!

if you like the typical high school romance love triangle with a very deep plot twist then you will definitely like this anime...... it may look a little simple anime but if you watch it, you will see more than you expected
-Both animes focuses very deeply into the story that involves love triangles and one-sided love as well as problems surrounding it.
-School Life/Drama

High school, love triangle, drama. However, main character in Tale of Memories isn't a spineless egoist and doesn't cheat on anybody. There is also more than one story and one protagonist.
This two anime are more similar than they are different.The only difference is the endings.School days took a dark route while ef:A tale of memories took a bright route.Both anime focused on how love relation develops and how small mistakes can create big misunderstanding.School days showcased it better and made it a physiological-horror anime which took many people by surprise since genre didn't say it was physiological anime. Ef:A tale of memories took a more drama,slice of life ending.Overall one anime could have easily taken the other anime's ending that's how similar they were.
