If you liked Pururun! Shizuku-chan add

...then you might like Line Town add

Two anime aimed for children set in a colourful environment with fun exciting activities happening every day. Both anime are episodic in nature and mainly compose of the everyday life within both places, appearance-wise their locations are something you'd expect from a children's show too being very spacious and full of greenery. Characters in both are fantastical, Shizuku-chan being very fictional with their drop-like characters and Line Town using mascot characters from its phone app but their characters breathe life and fun in both. Perhaps the biggest difference is the generational gap in both of just under 10 years difference, Shizuku-chan leaning more to your traditional 2000's kids show and Line Town being a bit more modern with phone culture at play. Another difference is that Shizuku-chan introduces a fair amount of minor characters who appear for one or two episodes amongst the main cast whereas Line Town generally play episodes around the 7 characters, sometimes with the occasional character not part of their group appearing every now and then. Both shows are bundled with so much fun and random silliness that if you enjoy one, you will enjoy the other.

If you liked Kuromi's Pretty Journey add

...then you might like Bananya: Around the World add

Established mascot characters featured in short episode ONA's aimed towards children go around the world. Probably the main difference is that Kuromi can speak and is featured going around Earth where humans reside whereas the Bananya's only speak Banyaneese and you really only see other Bananya's too throughout. Kuromi seems to have more of an established story going around different locations on Earth whereas Bananya they just end up wherever on the planet its set in with not too much plot behind it other than to be cute.

If you liked Murenase! Seton Gakuen add

...then you might like Youkai Gakkou no Sensei Hajimemashita! add

School-set wacky comedies where a human has to attend school with other people that aren't humans, in Seton the human is with anthropomorphic animals and in Yohaji the human is with youkai. There are pointers within both where you learn more about the species there, one regarding different animal species and the other on youkai. Main difference is that Seton's human MC is a student whereas Yohaji's human MC is a teacher, also that Yohaji leans more towards gag humour and Seton is more ecchi oriented within its comedy.

If you liked Spy x Family add

...then you might like Kekkon suru tte, Hontou desu ka add

Two animes where people fake a marriage for a certain purpose, both shows with Saori Hayami playing as the female MC. Their plots differ where one is faking a family (in which the marriage is also faked plus the additional child) to prevent a war from happening whereas the other is faking a marriage to prevent being transferred to a foreign branch. Genres too are different in that one is a slice of life with lots of action and the other is slice of life leaning towards romance Despite the fakery, the MCs would eventually get closer to each other as both series progresses, Forger family becoming even more like a real family and Rika and Takuya starting to develop real feelings through their act.

If you liked Tearmoon Teikoku Monogatari: Dantoudai kara Hajimaru, Hime no Tensei Gyakuten Story add

...then you might like Yarinaoshi Reijou wa Ryuutei Heika wo Kouryakuchuu add

Two fantasy comedies where female MCs die at the start and reincarnate back in time to themselves at a younger age with their memories prior to death. Main difference is Tearmoon's MC was evil so killed by her kingdom whereas Yariryuu's MC was good but killed for being erased as evidence and framed. Both MCs would redo the past in order to live, Tearmoon having some romance in whereas Yariryuu is mainly love too. Given the nature of their settings, they can get a bit political too in their world setting.

If you liked Spy x Family add

...then you might like Kimi wa Meido-sama. add

Comedies that feature killer assassins moving in to a new family and get used to their new lifestyle. Main difference is that one is just an assassin whereas the other has an assassin, a spy, and mind-reading child living together. Assassins in both shows are very good with assassination-related tasks but are abysmal at chores but one is more energetic whereas the other is very much silent and cold, tho they both have their outbursts of joy in certain moments.

If you liked Spy x Family add

...then you might like Migi to Dali add

Characters within new family in order to achieve a certain goal, both containing comedy in. SxF has lots of action in whereas MtD is suspense mystery instead but they both have their funny and light-hearted moments amidst some serious scenes, MtD leaning more to this compared to SxF. SxF's plot regards to a fake family being formed to prevent a war happening whereas MtD has twins being adopted in order to figure out in the shadows who murdered their mother. As both series goes on, the MCs start changing a bit and do get closer to their new family members despite it being a façade.

If you liked Doukyonin wa Hiza, Tokidoki, Atama no Ue. add

...then you might like Kinoko Inu add

Two slice of life's with adult casts that revolves around pets and an author overcoming the grief of losing family members, main difference being that Hizaue only has the MC's parents passing away whereas Kinokoinu has the MC's parents plus their dog passing away and that one has a cat whereas the other one has a [i]dog[/i]. They both have their light-hearted moments with interactions to their new pets but a fair bit of serious sad content with overcoming grief. Main difference is Hizaue is normal with its contents whereas Kinokoinu has a mushroom dog, which is very unnormal but the pet is also very smart and understands what humans say.

If you liked Akuyaku Reijou Level 99: Watashi wa Ura-Boss desu ga Maou dewa Arimasen add

...then you might like Rekishi ni Nokoru Akujo ni Naru zo add

Female MC's isekai as a villianess into the high fantasy romance visual novel they've played and absolutely adore the villianess from when they played the games. Main similarity too is that both MC's are from a family which main magic alignment is darkness but both having isekai'd as children, they make a difference to their futures by being proactive in doing stuff, Akuyaku's MC going dungeon-busting whereas Rekiaku's MC doing lots of muscle training and library spelunking. They have a common ground in a target they strive for, Akuyaku reaching a very high level in order to not die from her fate whereas Rekiaku becoming the best villianess known in history. Their biggest difference is their personalities, Akuyaku's MC is very stoic, cool, and quite blank in expression, meanwhile Rekiaku's MC is rather energetic, confident, and pretty expressive. As well, Akuyaku's MC is not deemed well in other's eyes due to the prejudice against those with black hair which is deemed unlucky, let alone wielding black magic. On the other side, Rekiaku's MC is not prejudiced upon and dark alignment families have a name within the nobility so it's not frowned upon. Their upbringings are very different too, Akuyaku's MC with a family that despise her due to her unlucky hair whereas Rekiaku's family is pretty normal but you can tell they have their fun times.

If you liked Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta... add

...then you might like Rekishi ni Nokoru Akujo ni Naru zo add

Female MC's isekai as a villianess into the high fantasy romance visual novel they've played and make changes to the VN world with their sudden change in personalities and actions. They both have a common ground in a similar quirk the MC's strive for, Hamefura's MC getting real into farming in the case she has to resort to a farm lifestyle and Rekiaku's MC getting real into muscle training to get stronger to become the history's best villianess. Main difference is that Hamefura's MC is doing all she can to prevent her fated death from the game's story whereas Rekiaku's MC is just trying to let the story flow as it would normally.

If you liked Mikan Enikki add

...then you might like Ramen Akaneko add

Perhaps the only similarity between these two are talking cats speaking the human language living amongst humans, slice of life's that lean to a certain area. ME features the daily life of a stray cat taken into a family who one days finds out he can speak the human language but is very much SoL family oriented. Meanwhile RA features the daily operations of a ramen place ran by talking cats and the human MC joining the place as a part time employee but is very much SoL work related. Main difference as well is that RA has cats talking normally to human customers although tries to keep it from getting too publicized on social media whereas ME only the cat's family knows he can talk the human language but tries to keep it secret publicly. If you love watching cats talking to humans in one, you will enjoy the other one too.

If you liked Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi add

...then you might like Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu add

Two isekai's with an MC that becomes an adventurer going on adventures accompanied by beings from the isekai-world. They both have talking animals in them but main difference is that Iseyuru has the MC look after two children as well. One of the main similarities is that they bring recipes/food knowledge from Earth to the isekai whilst both shows maintain a healthy balance of action adventure sequences and light-hearted fun. Tonsuki is also a gourmet anime and heavily relies on this aspect whereas Iseyuru uses food every now and then but see characters enjoy digging in to good food. If you like a fun relaxing time that makes you happy in one, you'll also enjoy the other one.

If you liked Kami-tachi ni Hirowareta Otoko add

...then you might like Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu add

Two fantasy slice of life isekai's that are equally light-hearted and have enough action sequences to make it exciting with the plot of the character's journeys. In both, the MC's are reincarnated for different reasons but would regularly converse with the God's of their universes and are blessed by them too. The MC's in both are always meeting new friendly people along the way. Main difference is that Kamihiro features lots slimes who are tamed by the MC whereas in Iseyuru the MC is accompanied by two children, plus the MC in Kamihiro reincarnates as a child but the MC in Iseyuru is still himself.

If you liked Kono Healer, Mendokusai add

...then you might like Dungeon no Naka no Hito add

Two adventure comedies set in a fantasy world where humans cohabit with monsters, tho in DnNnH the monsters don't live on the surface like the ones in KHM does. Their art styles are quite similar and have a bit of action in both but the directions in genre face differently despite having the same genres. KHM is very much more gag comedy and DnNnH's comedy isn't as crazy but there are still funny moments. DnNnH has more plot compared to which some may deem more heavy plus the use of blood too, although not entirely melodramatic serious.

If you liked Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro add

...then you might like Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan add

Two gag comedy parodies with unhinged high school girls set mainly in school. The comedy in both are very excessive and meme-y so they're very similar in those regards.

If you liked Makeruna!! Aku no Gundan! add

...then you might like Egumi Legacy add

Two series originating from VA's, MAnG coming from Sora Tokui and EL coming from Takuya Eguchi. MAnG makes more sense in plot although shorter than EL and EL is a lot more shitposty compared to.

If you liked Toutotsu ni Egypt Shin add

...then you might like Egumi Legacy add

Somewhat similar vibe with the fact that popular VA's are used in acting in both shows that aren't that serious and somewhat feel a bit shitposty at times, EL really embracing that vibe whereas TnES has a bit more sense to it but is mainly just small snippets of stuff.

If you liked Chobits add

...then you might like Boku no Tsuma wa Kanjou ga Nai add

Two sci-fi romcoms about a man living on his own with his affectionate female robot. The two robots in both follow through strict manual instructions but along the way would go through some kind of change in behaviour no longer acting as just the standard robot. Main difference is that Bokutsuma's MC is a working salaryman whereas Chobits' MC is in college, also there is more drama and a deeper lore in Chobits whilst Bokutsuma has its serious moments but generally pretty calming and is more on just the daily life of a dude and his robot wife and kid.

If you liked Anima Yell! add

...then you might like Na Nare Hana Nare add

Cute girls cheerleading in a small group of 5 that does go up against a much bigger cheerleading group. Personalities between the main girls are quite similar in both tho there are little differences but still fairly similar. They both have their moments of lighthearted fun and serious drama moments within the story tho AY leans more to the funny moe side whereas NNHN leans more into drama with the development of the story.

If you liked Koi wa Sekai Seifuku no Ato de add

...then you might like Katsute Mahou Shoujo to Aku wa Tekitai shiteita. add

Two Good vs. Evil factioned romcoms with two people from opposite sides falling in love with each other despite all other odds, set in modern day Tokyo. Main difference is that the genders are reversed in both with as to who is on the good side and who is on the evil side. Also that the good side in Koiseka is a whole group whereas in Mahoaku, the good MC normally works solo.

If you liked Isekai de Mofumofu Nadenade suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu. add

...then you might like Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu add

Two isekai fantasies with smol kid MCs and fluffy animals. Their stories differ where Mofunade's MC is royalty whereas Iseyuru's MC are normal folks but there are equal parts cuteness and fun in both. Main difference is that the person who isekai'd in Mofunade turns into the child whereas Iseyuru has the person isekai'd into an adult but looks after two children. In turn, Mofunade's child is very independent with her past knowledge whereas childcare is a main theme in Iseyuru as the children still have the mind of children. Mofunade does get serious along the way in comparison but this is subject to change depending on how Iseyuru pans out.

If you liked Uchouten Kazoku add

...then you might like Tonari no Youkai-san add

Two fantasies set in Japan where humans live with supernatural mythical beings, where TnY has both cohabiting whereas the mythological beings in UK are kept a secret, but both do have tengu and shapeshifters (tanuki in UK and nekomata in TnY) amongst the main focus too. They both revolve a fair bit around family and they have this very authentic Japanese divinity feel to both shows too. They have their equal bits of serious drama mixed in with light-hearted warm moments within both.

If you liked Shirokuma Cafe add

...then you might like Ramen Akaneko add

Two slice of life's with comedy where humans cohabit with talking animals who own and run an eatery, SC being about a café whereas RA is about a ramen shop. Main difference is that SC has a variety of different talking animals whereas RA is just felines within the show. RA is mainly set within the ramen shop whereas SC shows a variety of different places outside of the working place café and zoo but SC is a longer show in comparison. Also that RA revolves mainly on the work whereas SC has a lot of out of work kinda stuff, a lot of which isn't even about work.

If you liked Koufuku Graffiti add

...then you might like Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san add

Literally food porn animes with high school girls, best to watch alone unless you wanted people around you raising eyebrows at you

If you liked Zenryoku Usagi add

...then you might like Ramen Akaneko add

Talking animals in the workplace, ZU about rabbits within construction whereas RA being about a ramen shop. We see the everyday life and activities of both sides tho a main difference is that ZU is just rabbits whereas RA has cats and humans living together.

If you liked Mikan Enikki add

...then you might like Tonari no Youkai-san add

Two slice of lifes with a talking cat living within a family of humans. ME isn't about youkai living amongst humans but there are references of Mikan perhaps actually being a nekomata which Buchio would turn into within TnY. Main difference would be that Mikan is hiding the fact he can talk human-language whereas Buchio doesn't need to hide this. The stories are different but they are similar with their light-hearted and heartwarming moments amongst some serious things that occur within them, although ME is a lot more comedic and in nature throughout compared to the fairly heavy lore of TnY has as it progresses.

If you liked Okoshiyasu, Chitose-chan add

...then you might like Odekake Kozame add

Cute smol animals who are independent and get accustomed to everyday life in modern day Japan with humans helping or having fun with them in these short episodic series sure to make you feel relaxed and awe at the cuteness.

If you liked Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

...then you might like Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku? add

Two adventure-genre shows with girls journeying in a post-apocalyptic world to get somewhere. Both worlds are but a husk of their former shells after change happened and aside from adventure, there is mystery and a bit of suspense as well in what lies ahead.

If you liked Mahoraba: Heartful Days add

...then you might like Astro Note add

Two romcoms set mainly in an apartment with female landlady MCs that has another side to them that meets the eyes at first glance. The apartments in both shows inhabit a variety of eccentric characters whilst the male MCs gradually grow fond of the inhabitants in everyday activities as well as getting closer to the female MCs.

If you liked Otonari ni Ginga add

...then you might like Astro Note add

Two romances set in an apartment with tenants that are quite close to each other with an outer world female of royalty inhabiting there, falling in love with the male MC. Both are colourful in presentation and Otonari ni Ginga is a bit more quaint with serious moments whereas Astro Note is more eccentric in nature with wacky characters.
