If you liked Hetalia Axis Powers add

...then you might like Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou add

Hetalia and Danshi are both very very comical. Hetalia is historical and a whole parody of countries, while instead Danshi is slice of life and a strong parody of "normal" high schoolers They are both short series (Hetalia has around 50 episodes of ONAs who don't last more than 5 mins, and Danshi is a short tv-serie who counts barely 12 eps of 20 mins each) so you don't need to spend a lot of time to complete either of them. If you are searching for a smile or you simply like to laugh then both series are very highly recommended ;3

If you liked .hack//Sign add

...then you might like Sword Art Online add

While .Hack//Sign was an anime released back then in 2002, Sword Art Online is quite newer. Released after around 10 years from the first it obviously shows "new way to imagine how technology could be, new stuff in the game" and so on.. However, regardless the year they have been producted, both series are still very similar: - both start off in this special "super new virtual" MMORPG, where the technology is the highest than ever. - both, obviously show all the characters in this game - Trapped in the game: on HS there's the main chara who can't log off and in SAO instead everyone can't log off due the game master's insane idea to doom everyone inside the game until someone reaches the top level of the tower. - of course there are also: special powers, battles against monsters, quests.. and everything else that a game normally has. And many other things. Just keep watching and you'll see! If you like the idea of an "inside a video-game" story both of them are recommended!

If you liked Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai. add

...then you might like Natsuyuki Rendezvous add

So, we have Ano Hana and NR who are both drama genre and have a very strong supernatural element in the story. Still, both serie evolve around a person who is the only able to see a ghost who is unable to move on. Both stories have deep love feelings and struggle around the possibility of "what if": what if i did/did not that thing? what if i could un-do something? what if this person was still alive? Ano Hana is a great serie and NR evolved more and more interesting too. Obviously, if you watched & liked one of them, the another is highly recommended too!

If you liked Chihayafuru add

...then you might like Chouyaku Hyakuninisshu: Uta Koi. add

Chihayafuru is an amazing sports anime, with a very sweet tone of friendship and love, based on a not too known game: Karuta. On the other side, Uta Koi is an historical anime exactly about telling the love stories behind the poems who actually compose the Karuta game. The love stories happened to the poets who gave them the inspiration and experience to make beautiful poems. Both series are josei genre and share some sort of romantic feeling as well. Personally i've started Uta Koi after i watched Chihayafuru, right because i wanted to understand deeper the poems of the Karuta game; and i have to say that it's very interesting. Uta Koi's artstyle is particular but at the same time can be great, Chihayafuru's art is gorgeous and both series have a very awesome cast. I certainly recommend to watch both :D

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Bokura no add

Bokurano is very similar to Evangelion: - they both have mechas, piloted by teenagers who are, little by little, shown to make extreme actions and decisions - the protagonists are forced to fight those "sort of unknown" enemies in order to protect/save the Earth, and all of them will pass through a very hard path Among all this, there's this very strong dark atmosphere over all the serie that will slowly bring both stories towards important and psychological ends similar to eachother. If you liked one of them, I highly recommend you to watch the another as well, as you might probably like them both.

If you liked Hakuouki add

...then you might like Hiiro no Kakera add

Well it's simple to see what they have in common: • the art style is similar? of course, the artist is the same • both tv series come from an otome game, with reverse harem genre • as being reverse harem they both show the usual pattern of a group of boys having somewhat to protect the female protagonist • still, both series share a strong supernatural factor who doesn't pass on background throught all the story If you liked one of those you might want to give a try to the another as well! Have fun watching~

If you liked Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch add

...then you might like Kidou Senshi Gundam 00 add

Indeed Code Geass and Gundam 00 are very similar and yet both masterpieces. They both have: • a terroristic group who plays the part of the "good guys" actually • Earth's big leaders (Emperor/Politicians) are both instead the antagonists • wonderfully planned war strategies • mechas, sci-fi • famous and very good skilled cast of seiyuus • both series have the same lasting of 25 episodes, with a second season having the same amount once again • and much more, that u'll find out while watching! Without mentioning that both series share an amazing art, epic musics and very well planned story. If you liked one of those i highly recommend you to watch the another serie as well! They really worth it! ♥

If you liked Higashi no Eden add

...then you might like Mirai Nikki (TV) add

Indeed similar, while watching Mirai Nikki it brought me back the feeling i had when i used to watch Higashi no Eden. Both series are action and mystery genres, as well both share an important point of the main line in the plot: a teenager (Akira for Higashi and Yukiteru for Mirai) received a "special phone" and has to somewhat change the world with it. Akira has 10 billions of yen which he has to use to change Japan for good, as well Yukiteru has the diary of future which he needs to use in order to survive and become the new god of space and time. Still, both characters, are introduced to play this "game" and have to pay attention to the other contestants who, of course, will try anything in their power to trouble them, or else worse, kill them; because everyone wants obviously win the game. The strong action of both series will keep you very interested as to know what will come next, by each episode you'll watch. If you liked one of those, it's highly probable that you will enjoy the other as well!

If you liked Shiki add

...then you might like Another add

Well, both series are Mystery genres.. They give the same scary feeling due to the lots of creepy deaths all over the stories. Yet, both show the main male character wiling to stop this "supernatural phenomenon". Also a special mention to the cure of the music, which both serie have. If you enjoyed one of those, you might probably enjoy the other as well!

If you liked Mahou no Stage Fancy Lala add

...then you might like Mahou no Star Magical Emi add

Well both are nostalgic anime from childhood, and both are still "old school" (before years 2000) Both are "Majokko" types: having a female heroine which uses her magical power to transform into an adult version of, possibly, herself. Besides the fact that the transformed adult versions of both main characters (Lala and Emi) are quite similar even by look, both are singers, quite famous ones, and very much appreciated with lots of fans. Yet they share all the same genres: Comedy, Magic, Shoujo. I think that if you like the Majokko genre, you should give a try to both of them, as they both worth it :3

If you liked Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann add

...then you might like Guilty Crown add

So what to say? At first i wouldn't have thought that those two series have something in common.. at least not this much. But, the more i went ahead and watched Guilty Crown, and the more i felt somehow of a bond between this and TTGL. • Well, as i said, besides both of them share sci-fi and (lots of) action genres, doesn't seem they have anything else.. but~ • The more you get to know GC's characters, and the more you become to notice how their relations is similar to TTGL's ones. Let's analyze better: they both have a pretty badass leader (Gai / Kamina) who encourages people (Undertaker / Dai-Gurren Team) to take their rebellion against the "dictators". Then, the more you watch both series and the more you see that the main character (Shu / Simon) are somehow "weak" but through the adventures get stronger and they both aim to become similar to their best friend or idol (Gai / Kamina). Still the main female character is strong at fighting and a constant role in the rebellion (Inori / Yoko), despite of course when talking by personality, Yoko surely has way more than Inori. That's it pretty much. TTGL might look having a "happier" atmosphere, for most of time, than GC but believe me, they both worth watching. TTGL is epic, as well GC so far is going great. I'm sure that if you liked one of them, you might probably like the another as well if you give it a try! Recommended both ♥

If you liked Shinrei Tantei Yakumo add

...then you might like Un-Go add

Un-Go & Shinrei Tantei Yakumo: both are mystery genre with a good capable detective as main character that has to solve cases; as well a supernatural factor grows bigger in both by every episode. If you liked one of them you might probably enjoy the other too!

If you liked Last Exile add

...then you might like Koukyoushihen Eureka Seven add

Both Last Exile and Eureka Seven share adventure and sci-fi genre. Still, both have a plot evolving around flying ships, war and interesting characters. Klaus (for Last Exile) and Renton (for Eureka Seven) have to protect whose dear to them and will do it through the whole story. A note to mention is also the good cast of seiyuus and very good art which both series have. Additionally, Last Exile has a quite nice ost. As a difference instead, Eureka has a more futuristic technology while Last Exile shows an "oldish" technology on the style of 19th centuary. For sure if you liked one of those, you'll probably enjoy the other as well!

If you liked Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch add

...then you might like Guilty Crown add

Indeed when i first watched Guilty Crown it was feeling like the same atmosphere which used to have Code Geass. Now let me explain: - both stories start in this future age in a post-apocalyptic-war scenery, face the government as villain, have discriminated people (Eleven/Infected), and as well have a rebellion lead by the main characters (Black Knights/Undertakers) - both series evolve around a main character, the usual teenager student, which casually gain a special power from a quiet and mysterious girl. - both anime have similar mechas - and last, both have an amazing art style and great character design ♥ Of course i do recommend both definitely!

If you liked Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 add

...then you might like Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai. add

Despite Ano Hana tries to keep scenes on a more happy stage, the sad moments don't ever miss a single episode to have some space. Those two anime might result way different from eachother, but i think if you try to watch them both you'll get to understand and have the same feeling that they both will give you. Plus both stories are very good, the art and the colors are very well cured. Highly recommended both~

If you liked Starry☆Sky add

...then you might like Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ Maji Love 1000% add

Both series are reverse harem: many cool boys who casually and inevitably fall in love for the same girl. As well both anime have been realized after their game, still both share the same school life genre and have a great art. Both are recommended! ♥

If you liked Hotaru no Haka add

...then you might like Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 add

Both deal with real catastrophes, the provoked damages, the victims and the ruined lives of the remained people.. Both series have a great psychological drama impact, very well developed. Also, another important thing to mention is that they both share a great sibling relationship as main factor of the story along all the plot. Conclusion, if u've seen one of those, you can't miss the other one!

If you liked Yousai Gakuen add

...then you might like Deadman Wonderland add

Both series are around a prison, they have very violent scenes and a main teenager male character that has to discover the many secrets behind. Althought DW is not over yet, they both have a great plot and are very interesting. As well Fortified School is a "must" to be read, one of the pearls from the "old school manga" :3 If you liked one of those, u'll probably like the other as well !

If you liked Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou add

...then you might like Kimi ni Todoke add

Kare Kano and Kimi ni Todoke are both romantic stories with situations delicately psycho-analized by the main characters. Even if the two main females are very differents by personality, the girl will little by little face the importance and experience of her own precious first love in both series. The love of the girl, as the love of the boy, are told and shown throughout both series in a real unique way. Still, the main male and female character will be surrounded by awesome friends which will help them and will be affected by their situations. There are many anime which face love stories out there, but noone of them is similar to Kare Kano or Kimi ni Todoke as much as those two are with eachother. For this reason i strongly feel to associate KNT to KareKano and viceversa. Indeed, if you already liked one of those, you can't miss to watch the other! You'll definitely appreciate them both. Personally, i think that "unique" is a perfect adjective to describe them both. Their stories are really told and shown in a special unique way which authomatically creates a very charming atmosphere.

If you liked Skip Beat! add

...then you might like Kobato. add

Well, Skip Beat's atmosphere is very energetic, while on the other side Kobato's atmosphere is very sweet. Althought: - both main female characters (Kobato and Kyoko) are very positive and cheerful and want to realize a dream/reach a goal. Kobato wants to fulfill her bottle in order to reach "that place", and Kyoko wants to become famous in order to take her revenge on her ex-boyfriend. - but during their adventures to reach their goal, both girls meet a main male character and will, little by little, develope love or anyway strong feelings for those. - both series are romantic shoujo genre. If you alraedy liked one of those, it worth watching the other as well since they both are quite amazing and very colorful.

If you liked Howl no Ugoku Shiro add

...then you might like Hakushaku to Yousei add

Indeed both share an evident and delicate romantic and magic atmosphere. - "Hakushaku to Yousei" has Lydia, "Howl's Moving Castle" has Sophie, both girls are brought into magic adventures by an handsome blonde guys (Edgar / Howl). - Still, both anime are inspired to an old-england style in a past epoch (which may easily be around year 1900). - Similar as well the gentle and gold-hearted personalities of the involved characters in both stories ♥ If you loved one of those yet, you'll definitely fall in love once again for the other! I think that a good word to describe their magic stories is: Sweet.

If you liked Samurai Champloo add

...then you might like Stranger: Mukou Hadan add

Both facing a similar plot: traveling samurai. Both anime placed in similar ages, and both having pretty good strong samurai as main characters. Sword of the Stranger is a pearl (sadly a single movie) of animation and i can say that both anime are masterpieces in their own way.

If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni add

...then you might like Shiki add

When i watched Shiki i felt from the very start the same atmosphere that Higurashi was used to give me. The more the story was going on, and the more that feeling was becoming stronger. Yep, both series really have many similitudes: - in both stories everything starts in those little and "calm" villages - both series' main subjects are the weird deaths (murders) that will shock the villagers - both anime have quite a well-made mystery atmosphere; whenever someone finds something, another thing will happen and you wont have to finish to realize all hints yet, until the end. The mystery affects both pubblic and characters, which i think is another good thing that both have in common - still, both stories have supernatural factors leading the events - and, even one of the main female characters are similar in both series (Sunako and Rika), be it in look and personality So, to conclude: personally i advice to see both, since both are very well made. If you liked the mystery in one of the series you'll surely like the other too! ps: as personal opinion i especially liked Shiki's art style, since is quite particular and different from any other anime.

If you liked Jigoku Shoujo add

...then you might like Shinrei Tantei Yakumo add

Well plots are indeed very different but they still do share an important dark and mysterious atmosphere during the whole stories. Both anime are about death and both face arguments like revenge and particular powers. A strong supernatural theme is the background for both of the series and both main characters (Yakumo and Ai) have a similar quiet personality. If you already watched one of those, you could easily like the other as well~

If you liked Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

...then you might like Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom add

Darker than Black and the re-make of Phantom surely do share a lot of points: - both face stories involving around assassins and criminal organizations - both have a main male character (Hei / Zwei) which a similar personality and job - both main characters are accompanied by two emotionless girls (Yin / Ein) which they both somehow develop to love - both series have this dark atmosphere all around characters and places - very good, and maybe similar a little, art style and character design for both anime - well done the character development in both series too Mystery, action and fight scenes wont miss in either of them. So, for all listed reasons i see a strong connection and similarity between DTB and Phantom, due to this i can't avoid to advice to watch one if you already liked the other :3 Enjoy~

If you liked Hakuouki add

...then you might like Starry☆Sky add

Different epoch (sengoku age / modern age), different main theme (samurai / school), but despite this they still do share some basical other trait: - Both have been inspirated/realized from videogames, and only later made actually into anime. - Both face a very big part of the story leaded by a reverse harem idea: the main female character is surrounded by awesome and handsome boys, which save her and make her developing love feelings. - Both are shoujo genre ♥ So, that said, go ahead to watch, 'cuz if you liked one of those yet, you'll surely enjoy the other!

If you liked Fruits Basket add

...then you might like Starry☆Sky add

Both series have somehow a strong zodiac-related theme in the story. Fruits Basket introduce characters as part of the Chinese Zodiac, while Starry Sky introduce characters representing each of the Zodiac Star Sign. Is quite interesting seeing once again an anime facing this special thing which is the zodiac. Still, both anime are shoujo genre and reverse harem: a main lead girl surrounded by handsome amazing boys. And both series share a very sweet atmosphere ♥ If you liked one of those, i highly advice to watch the other too ;3

If you liked One Piece add

...then you might like Fairy Tail add

Let's start: - similar artstyle: true it can be seen, and a simple motivation is that Hiro Mashima (Fairy Tail's author) and Eiichiro Oda (One Piece's author) are of the same generation who grown up admiring Akira Toriyama (Dragonball's author). Rumors are that their styles were so forged by their worshipping Toriyama; this of cours makes works of both of them share a similar, very cool art style and character design. - special powers: in a Jump's shonen manga those can't miss. Characters with awesome strong incredible powers are everywhere in both series. In One Piece we have devil fruits which give to their users incredible abilities, while in Fairy Tail we have mages which obviously do use their own magic spells/abilities. - action: another big part and genre that both series do share. - purposes: friendship is the main theme which makes an important bond between the main characters in both seasons. - heroic scenes: One Piece and Fairy Tail do share quite a lot of very awesome heroic scenes. - female characters: both authors wanted to give to their characters some strong power and/or personalities, differently from many other shonen series where the main female is just needed there to be saved and/or making comical scenes. Those, and many other, are the shared things by both series, but the above listed are surely the biggest points which deserved to be mentioned. So, indeed if you liked One Piece you could give a try to Fairy Tail, or viceversa. Although, while manga series have both a very good art style, when it comes to anime One Piece's animation quality is cured more.

If you liked Samurai Champloo add

...then you might like Sengoku Basara add

Similar but Different ♥ A perfect combination to describe them differing from any other samurai story. - Both series evolve around an awesome and epic samurai period. - Of course, battles with swords wont miss in either of them. - Main characters have the same badass side in both series, obviously. - Now, it may be not be important for someone but i think is another good point to mention: the main characters (Mugen and Masamune) have been both played by the same voice actor (Nakai Kazuya) which makes high up the level of their charism even more. Okay, all the above stuff maybe can be found in little doses also in some few other anime samurai themed but, here the part where Sengoku Basara and Samurai Champloo will surely differ by any other serie: - They both have "something" that is definitely not common for their epoch or else not common at all. Samurai Champloo is litterally hip-hop themed (from the opening, to some dress or some scenes) and even features modern other stuff (like the baseball or graffiti episodes) -- while Sengoku Basara is definitely over the limit of the reality, fight scenes in there are not the "typical-anime-fight-scenes" at all, plus it also features pretty modern stuff like can be "Gundam"-robots like. So, even if the main plots are different (we have a girl that needs to find a person and due to this starts to travel with two samurais in Samurai Champloo // and on the other side we have Sengoku era with obvious big and incredible battles in Sengoku Basara), for all the above said things they do share a lot of similar stuff and style, so i do advice do watch both :3

If you liked Ouran Koukou Host Club add

...then you might like Starry☆Sky add

Both anime are shoujo and romantic themed. Both series are reverse Harem: meaning a main girl character surrounded by a lot of beautiful awesome boys. The atmosphere in both stories is very cool, plus both anime give a well developed background for every character which give to the pubblic a better understanding about their personalities. Both share a very unique and pretty good art style for the character design. Also, Starry Sky has a cast of many famous Seiyuus while Host Club is litterally a masterpiece for shoujo-genre lovers. I highly recommend to watch both :3
