If you liked Binbougami ga! add

...then you might like Nourin add

The fast paced gags and jokes coupled with the absurdity of the characters show the similar styles of comedy that Nourin and Binbougami ga! share. The shows enjoy making constant references and parodies to other popular anime such as Death Note, adding to its absurd style of comedy. Though comedy centric they're also able to show a more serious side to their characters and themes, displaying the show's ability to provide hilarity as well as moral questions and lessons.

...then you might like Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin add

When your heart is broken, your soul destroyed, piece it back together with the bonds of friendship! Break through the heavens! Believe in the Bro that believes in you! Rainbow and TTGL have vastly different settings though share similar themes and ideals to help showcase its larger than life characters on their coming of age journey.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like Joshiraku add

Dialogue heavy anime with a focus on a group of friends discussing various every-day topics with occasional references and jokes. Incredibly laid back as they're down to earth and occasionally relate able. Biggest difference is Lucky Star's theme of otaku culture while Joshiraku tends to focus on more general Japanese topics.

If you liked Yuru Yuri add

...then you might like Kiniro Mosaic add

So you like cute girls? How about inexplicit lesbian relationships? So how about cute girls in inexplicit lesbian relationships? Well if you do then you're in luck since that's pretty much what most "cute girls life" shows boil down to. I mean, they don't really explain or delve into their semi-platonic relationship but lesbianest, it's obvious that they're passionately sprouting for one another.

If you liked Gintama add

...then you might like Kuuchuu Buranko add

Far-fetched? Possibly, but at its core Gintama and Kuuchuu Buranko are anime focusing on an individual's story in a world where everyone has a story. While Kuuchuu Buranko tends to delve into psychology their focus on storytelling and the use of an indirectly/directly involved protagonist leads to heart-warming tales. They also have their fair share of dirty jokes.

If you liked Gintama add

...then you might like Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

It might seem like a bit of a long shot, but Gintama and Darker than Black do share similar elements especially in story structure. The obvious difference is that Gintama is full of slapstick and dirty jokes while Darker than Black has no comedy at all (that I can recall). The similarities come in its story telling; once Gintama establishes its world and characters the show focuses on telling stories about new guest/side-characters usually in 2-3 episode arcs. Darker than Black does the same but in 2 episode arcs. The protagonists, Sakata Gintoki in Gintama and Hei in Darker than Black, usually play a back-seat role in these stories with them being the one that resolves the conflict even if they weren't all that present during the arc. If you are looking for something with slapstick and dirty jokes or something with a mature world and characters then I can't recommend these two, but If you are looking for something that follows that style of story telling then these might be for you.

If you liked Psycho-Pass add

...then you might like Plastic Memories add

While in one hand we have Plastic Memories, a rom/com; and on the other we have Psycho-Pass, an action/police show; they both contain a 'near-future' like setting and the theme of 'has technology advanced for the better or worse?'

If you liked Gugure! Kokkuri-san add

...then you might like Ore ga Akuma de, Aitsu ga Yome de. add

Currently the Gugure! Kokkuri-san manga has only 2 chapters scanlated. Thus this review will be mostly based on knowledge from the show and those 2 chapters. So we got a little girl, a gang of supernatural bishounens, and a whole lot of fun! These comedy orientated manga/anime are focused on the mishaps of a little girl's life surrounded by spirits, demons, and priests, oh my! While there is a form of "romance" in the story it really turns into a parental sort of relationship, as the older spirit/demon becomes the guardian of the little girl they were initially trying to harm. Through the constant gags and hilarious dialogue exchanges there are also more serious moments that explore some of the supernatural themes, such as the importance of one's life. These two series will make you laugh as well as tug your heartstrings, creating an enjoyable experience that will likely make you go "ahahaha!" and occasionally "awww". So yeah, if you watched Gugure! Kokkuri-san and wanted to read something similar then check out Ore ga Akuma. If you read Ore ga Akuma and wanted to watch something similar check out Gugure! Kokkuri-san.

If you liked Eyeshield 21 add

...then you might like Kuroko no Basket add

What do you get when you mix a bunch of oddballs, superhuman abilities, and sports? Your typical shounen/sports series that's what! So how do these two differ from that? Well, not that much really but that's probably why they are so similar. While the sports themselves are different the way the team and the individual players play follow similar styles. "If they score then we'll just score 10x more!" are their team mottoes as they both play as offensive, high scoring teams. The protagonists Kuroko/Sena are pretty much the same character as their weak appearance and unique ability make them both the underdog and star player.This leads to games that are interesting as well as exciting due to it becoming a David vs Goliath scenario.

If you liked Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

...then you might like Kekkai Sensen add

Set in cities where a strange, other worldly gate has appeared turning the city into a place filled with the strange and wonderful. Kekkai Sensen tends to be lighter as it contains comedic elements, while Darker than Black maintains it's serious tone throughout the series.

If you liked Yotsuba to! add

...then you might like Himouto! Umaru-chan add

Children and child-like girls under the care of an older relative. Umaru and Yotsuba are childish characters that cause mischief for their caretakers making their lives troublesome but interesting. While Umaru is older than Yotsuba they both share a carefree and vibrant personality. The themes are also different with Himouto! Umaru-chan using Otaku culture such as video games and anime/manga in its humor, while Yotsuba follows a more general slice of life theme and a child's curiosity. Though the themes may be different the implementation and execution of said themes are handled in a similar way. Overall they are both enjoyable slice of life manga sharing a child/parent relationship and in Himouto! Umaru-chan's case, younger sister/older brother.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru add

A group of young people are recruited by an organisation and are tasked with protecting the world from large other-worldy type beings. If these beings reach the 'core' the world will be in peril. Sounds familiar?

If you liked Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou add

...then you might like Gugure! Kokkuri-san add

Looking for a laugh? Then you've come to the right place! Anime focusing on comedy and humour through character interactions and strange/interesting situations. Though they have two completely different themes (supernatural - Gugure! Kokkuri-san, High-school life - Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou) their large emphasis on comedy and humour will hopefully incite some laughs and bring out your silly side.

...then you might like Kill la Kill add

Crazy action, crazy fight scenes, crazy powers, crazy everything! Animes containing plenty of fighting and action sequences between people with strange, abnormal or supernatural powers. Featuring strong female leads, Kill la Kill and Medaka Box Abnormal are highly enjoyable and plenty of fun to watch!

If you liked Sora no Otoshimono add

...then you might like Majimoji Rurumo add

Our perverted protagonist has their normal life disrupted as a girl appears from another world proclaiming she is able to grant his wishes! Of course he wishes for perfectly normal things such as becoming invisible or stopping time (all in the name of science I assure you). As these hijinks occur the magical, wish granting girl experiences everyday human life and learns about human qualities.

If you liked Working!! add

...then you might like Denki-gai no Honya-san add

Workplace comedies featuring a cast of multiple male and female mains each with their own distinctive quirks. The cast consist of both high-schoolers and adults. The comedy is centred around the quirks of each character and their interactions between co-workers. The most similar characters are Sommelier and Souta Jun as they can be considered 'gentle giants', appearing tall and menacing but are actually kind. There is romance in both with characters having obvious pairings with one another. Overall, funny and enjoyable workplace comedies featuring a cast of quirky and lovable characters.
