- Both animes are about social outcast all in a club. - Both animes have a male protagonist and two female protagonists. - Both shows are essentially harem comedies, Haganai focuses more on the romantic side of things, and Yahari definitely focuses more on comedy. - Both shows center male lead who's a social outcast, Haganai's because of his hair colour, while Yahari's is more an outcast by choice after a bad start to his new school life. The main difference between the two series is the quality in writing, with Haganai relying more on pretty girls and simple humour to draw you in, while Yahari excels in creating a balanced group of well written characters and more complex comedy. If you liked one, chances are you will find the other entertaining.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like RahXephon add

- Both has Unstable main character, giant robots operated by chosen people, strange creatures attack human kind. - Rahxephon, in terms of animation, music and most importantly the plot, is the closest anime series to Evangelion. - In fact, there are so many similarities that both series almost look like a copies of each other. - Both include a very nice style of animation for their time, an excellent plot and good music. - They both have huge mechas backed up by an excellent cast of characters and stunning artwork. - Rahxephon and Eva both maintain a similar plot and where one contains an overabundance of Juddaic mythology the other replaces it with Sumerian. A very loosley, similar based plot with Evangelion, using mecha to fight alien "invaders" although I felt that RahXephon took itself a lot more seriously and has a much better characterisation than Eva. But both series are a must watch.

If you liked Beck add

...then you might like Nana add

- Both Beck and Nana deal with the hardships that certain people face as they attempt to make themselves and their music known, as well as deal with other day-to-day conflicts. - Both Nana and Beck deal with the lives of musicians and how people can be changed by music. - In each of the series there is a band that is trying to get started up, and become a group that everyone knows. - Nana and Beck both tells us about the musical industry and everything concerning the creative process. - In both series they show the sacrifices that need to be made while in a band as well as relationships and hardships that must be dealt with in everyday life. While differences between from the shows' intended audience--Nana, a josei; and Beck, a shounen--are clear, both believably chart the growth in its main character's maturity with wonderful relationships to supporting characters, love interests, and the abstraction of the music business as an antagonist. These anime are top notch in the music genre. If you enjoyed one of the series because of its writing as well as music concepts you will no doubt more than enjoy the other.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like K-On! add

- Both follow the slice of life antics of of girls and both have similar animation. - Both anime focus on the everyday life of a group of Happy-go-Lucky High School girls going through an average high school life. - Both are centered around the friendship of 4 characters. - Both focus more on the quirky relationships than any overriding plot. - They are both entertaining and have their own unique comedic values. - They go through life everyday doing many things such as going to see a doctor, practicing for an upcoming concert, or just trying to do your homework and pass the test. - They are both characters who can be either extremely moe or very angry in exceedingly similar ways. - Their actions will make you fall out your chair laughing and some of the plot just grabs your attention. - They are both made by Kyoto Animation. - Both end in a climatic performance in the final episode and both take a completely irrelevant but amusing route to get there. K-On! has a more continues story line whereas Lucky Star is just a series of short jokes. This means you will see less jokes in K-On!, but the type of humor is the same. Thus I think that if you liked one, you will most likely like the other one too.

SnK has a better developed story though. - They both have good drama scenes in my opinion and the same main voice actor (Yuuki Kaji) which good because the two anime are similar and Kaji-san is fit for both roles. If you like end of the world scenarios, mystery, and plenty of violence, then these two titles may be your cup of tea.

These shows are both fun, light-hearted shounens with tons of good action and great character development. Magi is a little serious than Fairy Tail which is nice, but Fairy Tail has much more emotional scenes. both great storytelling and memorable characters!! While both shows tend to be pretty silly, they're not afraid to get serious. If you're interested in magic/fantasy and you liked one, I'm sure you would like the other.

- The mood in both of these is fairly dark. - The Style of Storytelling is the same. - Both seem to have a mystical and spiritual influence to the story, and a 'curse'. - Both have excellent scripts, pacing, development, and execution. - Both focus on the evil that houses in every human. Higurashi has more of a story though, while Jigoku shoujo is more episodic.

If you liked Jigoku Shoujo add

- Both deal with the overall theme of death, and take it quite lightly. - Both anime deal with the decisions and values of humanity. - Both anime have a similar concept: Judging those that are not pure of heart. - The colours and tones are quite dark, and each story/plot twist is certainly one to keep you at the edge of your seat. - Both anime's have the same premise. (In Hell Girl, you can exact revenge by writing a person's name on a website, while in Death Note, the main character kills people by writing their names into a notebook.) - Both anime's make you think. Death Note has a far more advanced story (which is why not everyone will also like Jigoku Shoujo), but the atmosphere is definitely comparable. If you're into psychological thrillers with grim settings, both of these anime are worth checking out.

If you liked Jigoku Shoujo add

...then you might like Death Parade add

- Both are about passing judgement on people. ( Death Parade who looks into the idea of void and recreation, Jigoku Shoujo just looks into hell.) - Both are anime that peer into the hearts of "guest characters" through the eyes of the main characters.

- Both stories follow the concept of the transition between death and the afterlife. - Both series deal with judgement and moving on after death. - Both have different ways of dealing with death and unfinished business but both shows have the people who have passed on work through their lives and in the end move on to wherever they need to go. - Both shows tug at your emotions and feelings as you feel empathy for the characters. - Both shows also make you think seriously and offer some thought provoking moments. - Both of these animes operate on a different plane of existence.

If you liked Gintama add

...then you might like SKET Dance add

- First, the very purpose of the Yorozuya and SKET-dan are the same: they do anything for their clients. - Second, both groups are composed of three members (exclude the pets) with similar characteristerization: one leader figure, one freakishly strong female, and one Glasses (megane) character. - Third, Gintama and SKET Dance have similar comedy and sense of humor. Both series parody other anime series, as both main protagonists are very well conscious of their status as main character (and both don't want to be outdone by other characters). Gintama's famous randomness can also be seen in SKET Dance. - Both Sket Dance and Gintama are gag series about people trying to help each other. - Both have a protagonist who seems like a good-for-nothing but really cares about his friends, and both sometimes stop the hilarious comedy for a serious or really sad episode. - Both Sket Dance and Gintama are parody anime's (shows that make fun of other forms of media. manga, games, shows, etc...) - Oh, and both ran in Shonen Jump, so both have the common themes of "friendship, hard work, and victory". If you love the characters, the randomness, common humor, you'll surely love both series! Without a doubt, SKET Dance is the modern-campus-life Gintama!

If you liked Shakugan no Shana add

...then you might like Kaze no Stigma add

- The main girl character are almost the same in both animes. They look, fight and act extremely similar! - The relationship that is shared between the two main characters in Kaze no Stigma is a spitting image of the relationship between the two main characters in Shakugan no Shana. The girls are both tsunundre-type characters, the kind that no one can hate. - In both Kaze no Stigma and Shakugan no Shana the female lead is hot-headed and wields a fiery sword which she uses to fight supernatural enemies. - Both of them also tends to argue with the male lead even though she secretly likes him. You get humour, good action sequences, cute love story and definate character growth. Everything you see in Kaze no Stigma, you'll find in Shakugan no Shana with a slight bend to it, yet still enjoyable on the same level.

If you liked Koukaku no Regios add

...then you might like Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu add

- Well, both are from the same creators and feature strong main leads. - The main character is pretty strong but doesn't want to fight. - Both of the main characters is supported by a strong female lead that cares for him. - Both shows leave you hoping that there will be a second season. Do you like awesome powers? Do you like a protagonist that initially tries to hide his amazing abilities? Do you like fights between awesome power users? Do you like some minor drama and character growth with your super powered protagonist's? Do you like a female lead who's also pretty awesome? Well if all of these above or just a few of them sound like an anime you would like to see. Then I strongly recommend both anime they are just that good and if you haven't seen them they are a must see.

If you liked Sword Art Online add

...then you might like Log Horizon add

- These shows share almost identical plots. - They're both about a large group of MMO players getting trapped inside of the game. - Both shows go into the various social structures built by an MMOs player base and they discuss the different play styles that individuals adapt. - In both anime there´re MMORPG players who discover themselves trapped in a fantasy game and they can`t "log out". The only difference is that in Log Horizon you'll respawn when you die. If you liked either one of these animes you would like the other because they are both based on a video game. Although SAO has more Fanservice than Log Horizon, there is no denying that Log Horizon returns the lack of FS with a very deep and detailed plot!

If you liked Kimi ni Todoke add

...then you might like Suki tte Ii na yo. add

- Both are about a girl who is an outcast in school though they have very opposite perceptions about friend making. - Both also have a very popular male lead who is curious about the girl and wants to befriend her. - The two have pretty much the same premise. Mei isn't quite as dark as Sawako, but she still has problems interacting with others, and Yamato is just like Kazehaya, except he moves quicker. - If you liked Kimi ni Todoke or Suki-tte Ii na yo, you should check the other out. Suki-tte Ii na yo, reminds me of a faster pace version of Kimi ni Todoke. As you can tell from the title of episode one of Suki-tee Ii na you, it's much faster paced, but it works well for this anime. I wouldn't want Kimi ni Todoke to be much faster than it is, and so far I wouldn't want Suki-tte Ii na yo to be any slower than it is.

If you liked Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun add

...then you might like Suki tte Ii na yo. add

- Both of these anime have the same type of main characters, the unsociable girl that eventually makes friends, and the tall, black-haired male. - Similiar Storyline. - They are both full of misunderstandings because of the characters keeping their thoughts for themselves without telling anyone. - Both anime series consist of characters that are "new" to love. - Both of these series center around high shool romance, while Tonari is more quirky and fun, Suki-tte is more of a coming of age drama type. Sukitte Ilnayo is much more innocent and lovey-dovey, while Kaibatsu has a lot more comedy. But that being said they are both very well done love stories between two unlikely people.
