Both shows are about working in the anime industry and feature girls who are trying to break in and establish themselves in the industry. In Shirobako, the focus is on the overall anime production process while in Seiyu's Life, the focus is on the voice acting aspect.

-both are about seiyuus and their hard daily life -while sore ga seiyuu takes a bit lighthearted approach, girlish numbers takes a more cruel and darker one (darker as in the essence, not the tone) -nonetheless, both are very fun to watch -the cast is fun and quirky. relatable characters in both -both are about working society members Recommended.

Both touches on the job of the voice actor. Cue! is more "positive" in the sense that while some reality is depicted, not all of them is shown (at least thus far). Sore ga Seiyuu! is more realistic and is more "faithful" to the traditional job of a voice actor (e.g., less stage performances and more behind the scenes). Regardless, both talks about voice acting and features rookie actors.

Bakuman is based on a mangaka's daily life. Same with Seiyuu which is based off a Seiyuu's life. Both relate to the anime industry. We see how the world said thing is like and the hardships that come with it.

Shows about the lives of voice actresses and the hardships they face, offering a pretty good insight into the industry. At the same time, they are very personal stories, with realistic and relatable characters.

Light slice of life series that share some very specific things in common: Both feature cameos of famous voice actresses as themselves, in some of the best moments of their respective show, and both have ending credits with the main characters singing anime songs, including some very well known ones, especially in Sore ga Seiyuu!

Both series present the lives of up and coming female stars in the Japanese entertaining industry. Sore ga Seiyuu is about the insides of the seiyuu industry, such as voice acting, units, etc. Comic Girls is more focused in the manga industry and the processes of making manga. Both main characters have anxieties and big confidence issues because they don't know if they're gonna be stars at all, Futaba for SgS and Kaos-chan for CG. Futaba and Kaoruko have great female friends who support each other to consolidate themselves in their respective industries.

Self-aware shows about the lives of people who work in the anime industry. Both include cameos of real people, have references to EVA in their first episode (Insufficient Direction is about the director of EVA, Hideaki Anno), and the ending themes are all from well-known, older anime.

both featuring characters dealing with the hardship of their work/career. Less about the adventure but more towards experiencing new things and how they deal with it but I guess its the same thing by definition.

Each follows a group of girls in a specific line of work, voice acting and rakugo performing, while being pretty lighthearted and comedic. They are also filled with references to other anime, mainly as part of jokes in Joshiraku and on the ending credits in Sore ga Seiyuu!

Both are very heartwarming slice of life shows, with similar color palette and character designs, while also having some funny moments. There is some light romance in Acchi Kocchi, and Sore ga Seiyuu goes in depth into voice acting.

Both Involved Girls In A Work Place Both Non Manga Time Kirara Series's And Both Are Moe. Sore Ga Seiyuu Is About Seiyuu's (Japanese Voice Actors), While Mangirl Is About Making Manga's, But Sore Ga Seiyuu Has 23 Minutes While Mangirl Has 3 Minutes

Both are funny series based on the voice acting industry.

* Same studio * Same director * Same female trio MC seiyuus/OP singers (Earphones, consisting of Rie Takahashi, Yuki Nagaku, and Marika Kouno) * Both EDs usually vary on the music every episode * Both contain outside references that most otakus can appreciate in every episode

Like in Shonen Hollywood, the girls of Sore ga Seiyuu! are just trying to make it in one of Japan's biggest entertainment industries. However, instead of being an idol, it's voice acting! Join Futaba, Ichigo, and Rin as they gain experience in voice acting, grow closer together as a group, and even become an idol group. Like Shonen Hollywood, Sore ga Seiyuu! is dedicated to showing all aspects of a voice actor's life, including the most mundane things. If you enjoyed watching the boys of Shonen Hollywood struggle and overcome obstacles to be the best idols they can be, you will most definitely enjoy Sore  read more

A group of girls trying to pump life into their careers. Similar atmosphere with opposite settings. The art is similar too but it's kinda more advanced in Sakura Quest.

Series exploring a professional career with details. The characters are faced with obstacles that they have to overcome. 
report Recommended by Niveen_Sleem
While it's only a supporting character trying to become a seiyuu in Sakurasou, both animes emphasize the theme about accomplishing your goals in certain fields of the entertainment industry like game design, VA, Manga and Animation. Also their struggle during this process has many similarities. Further Sakurasou provides a wider variety on the romance aspect, which I strongly missed out in Sore ga Seiyuu.

Both of these shows follow amateur seiyuu girls on their journey to become true professionals

The two series are both about younger girls entering the working life in specific branches, with all the responsibilities it entails. Even though they are educational, they still manages to be light-hearted Slice of Life series where the senpai's care about their kōhai's.
