Both series have a white-haired, cute girl protagonist. They become friends with the male protagonist - a genuinely nice and sweet guy - and their friendship gradually changes over the course of the story. They both have humour integrated into an otherwise emotional story.

The main characters for both of the shows are very alike, and both have nice character development.
Their designs are kind of similar too.
As for the plot, The story lines are different however if you were to watch Plastic Memories you can see what I'm trying to say hnnnnggg
I just don't want to spoil anything, like they both tell you ahead of time whats going to happen yknow ?

Both of these beautiful series starts off a little slow at first, but after a few episodes it starts picking up speed and the romance between the two main characters begin to unravel. They are both so bitter-sweet and they will definitely take you on an emotional roller coaster. If you cried to one, you will probably cry to the other one too and remember to prepare the tissues ;~;

They are both tearjerkers and have pretty sad ending. The animation style is also very similar to that of Angel Beats

-Both have the main love interest as a white-haired kuudere girl
-Both have a fairly generic protagonist who is introduced to a new situation wherein he meets the love interest in question
-Both have character death without really stating that it was death (disappearing, retrievals)

Different story and different context, but Angel Beats! (AB!) and Plastic Memories (PM) have some similarity. The drama element make both anime have the strong feels. Not only that, both female mc, Kanade (AB!) and Isla (PM) make the feels grow stronger. With their kuudere personality and long white hair, they ready to shake your heart and your feeling. And brace yourself for the ending, because say goodbye is not easy as you think. Watch it if you want to know what i mean.
The series are both dramas that can get you emotional. In both anime, the main character meets an emotionless girl and gets to know her better throughout the series. The shows also deal with loss as the characters in both series can disappear by either getting obliterated or through retrievals.
First of all, both are Emotional Anime
In both anime the main characters are a boy and a white-haired girl.
In the beginning of both anime the main characters dont know each other.
While Plastic Memories is much more heart-breaking and romantic than Angel Beats, but Angle Beats compensate with comedy and action.
You might cry in Angel Beats but you will for sure in Plastic Memories.
SUMMING UP, if you want a Dramatic and Emotional anime watch Plasic Memories. If you dont want just an Romance anime and want a mixed between Emotion-Comedy-Action you must watch Angel Beats.
Both with make you cry in the end
Theme of selflessness
Kawaii main heroines
Relatable main heroes

Both deal with love, and bringing closure to the end of an experience. It's the experiences that bind people together, and both are able to showcase it.
Both are touching anime that could make you cry. Both have kawaii characters make make you laugh at totally bad timings
Both shows are grounded on the premise of inevitable death. More specifically, preparing oneself for disappearing from the world. As such, both explore the challenges that come from this in their own way.
Plastic Memories focuses on the idea of androids in society. Androids that are so human, that you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. As such, you can consider these androids humans with a predetermined lifespan of 8 years. The company who makes the androids are designated at retrieving them before their lifespan ends. This show follows a retrieval employee tasked at working with androids to retrieve others at the end of their

The main reason I recommend this if you finished watching Angel Beats! is that the heroine of this story looks like Kanade. The progression of the story will make you love and get into the characters with its very good progression also top notch recommendation if you want another sad anime. This will make you tear up.

Emotional and tearjerker anime from beginning to end. The characters are pretty similar. Good storyline. The romance and drama is quite good. The same end credit scene.

Do you like to cry, but you're not hardcore enough for Clannad? Here you go.
Angel Beats! starts out pretty calmly, but starts to escalate pretty quick around mid-series until the end of it. Plastic Memories kicks you in the feels hard starting on the first episode, which is pretty commendable, but isn't a constant tear jerker, and turns into more of a romance as it goes on, albeit a depressing one (I also really like the concept behind this one and the way it's executed.
Angel Beats is the whole package.
First you laugh, then you cry, then you see some action, laugh again then BAM! MORE TEARS. my favorite anime of all time for sure.

they both are very sad anime little bit of it is comedy but mostly sadness
1. Emotional tear jerkers (to some not all obviously)
2. Funny suprisingly
3. Short shows that are quality
4. Drama element
Angel Beats and Plastic Memories both feature similar white-haired girls and both balance comedy with emotion very well. If you liked either show I would recommend giving the other a try.

In Another World before afterlife (Angel Beats) and Advanced Technologies / Detroit / Android (Plastic Memories) but having the same vibes.
Similarities:
Both have a very kawaii kuudere loli who has problems
Similar Female Main characters with the same appearance and similar personalities
Both shows have a male MC that is a newbie who was just introduced to a new situation
Supernatural and romance genre
Like Angel Beats! in how it's funny and inevitably sad, but Plastic Memories is more cutesy and cheesy, if you like that.
both iare sci-fi and have a similar vibe

If you're looking for an anime with pretty good storyline, character development, romance and actually a good ending. These are your go-to animes! I don't see these two talked about a whole lot which is a shame. They have a lot of beautiful and emotional moments that really stand out to you, may even cry a bit. It's definitely worth checking them out.
