Anime Recommendations

Both anime feature a female martial arts expert being trained by their grandpa, both of whom are short in stature, and a little bit perverted. The main character in each show is also reluctantly entered into martial arts tournaments by said grandpa. Both series also feature a reporter for a sports tabloid which wants to get a scoop on the main character. The art style and tone of each show are slightly different, but I feel like it's impossible to ignore the otherwise large similarities between the two.

Both are 90s anime that blend self-aware humor and exaggerated characterizations with serious and dramatic plot points. While one is a fantasy adventure and the other a parody of military mecha, the humor of both series is fairly similar, and would appeal to viewers even if they aren't necessarily fans of the differing genres

Both are short OVAs following an adventures of good-natured but ditzy female protagonists, with a heavy serving of over the top and ridiculous 90s anime humor. Despite Detatoko Princess being fantasy and Yuna being sci-fi, both have taken pretty clear influence from magical girl anime

Both shows have predominantly female casts who fight in sci-fi combat sports, with both shows having a heavy focus on the girls training and learning new techniques, while building up to a rematch against an opponent who defeated them in the beginning.

Fast-paced, really likable characters, a unique art-style and is simply full of personality. Both great in his own little world, give them a chance.

Both main characters want to live their normal lives, but they get dragged by these Chuunibyou/weird characters who give them a hard time.

Comedic series about idols with something different about them. In Miss Monochrome's case, the titular character is an android. In Zombie Land Saga, the aspiring idols are zombies. Both situations make for hilarious scenes in the respective shows. Miss Monochrome has shorter episodes and arguably focuses more on comedy. Zombie Land Saga's episodes are standard length and arguably have more tension, but still retain comedic value. If you're looking for an idol series that is a bit different, either (or both) of these two series might be right up your alley.

"Darker than Black" is pretty much the series that "Code:Breaker" tried to be- a conspiracy anime involving super-powered assassins hunting down criminals, but WITHOUT an annoying pacifist girl getting in the way of it all. The powers of the superhumans (Contractors, as they're called) are explored a great deal and are much more varied, with many having an ability other than controlling the elements, though those do exist as well. Hei and Ogami are also very similar in some ways, having a friendly, easygoing personality in public but a cold and ruthless one when on the job, with the difference being that Hei has electricity powers while Ogami has fire. Basically, if you found "Code:Breaker" to be as tedious and melodramatic as I did, than "Darker than Black" should easily fill the void. And if you liked "Code:Breaker" than so much the better.

Same kind of premises, relationship between a senior with their junior with a specific reasons that tied them together. Light hearted, and if you like one, probably you will also like the other

High octane action that kicks off right from the start of the anime. Although the narratives of each of the two aren't anything special, the stylized action and over-the-top everything is sure to deliver any viewer a thrilling adrenaline rush.

Both shows are about under clad masked super-heroines protecting a girl in high school from mobbing and abuse. They came out in the early 1990s and share a similar narrative and artistic style. What little cloth they wear has resemblance, e.g. the feather on their headgear. Gootaman is closer to Mahou Shoujo, Kekko to the superhero genre. Gootaman is shorter, and it's plot could without much problem be made into a Kekkou episode. Kekkou is the more raunchy, zany and better show.

Devilman Crybaby and Kemonozume are VERY similar shows, which makes sense since they even share the same director (Masaaki Yuasa). They both feature an unorthodox, crude art style that is love-it-or-hate-it. Both shows are about demons who disguise themselves amongst humans, but reveal their true form after becoming sexually aroused. Both shows feature a ton of sex and violence and grotesque imagery. I didn't even like either show but I can still see how incredibly similar they are.

Both are narrated from the POV of a young female cat with near human intelligence. She also has, at least in her own perception, a human body of a girl aged between toddler and pre-school kid. Both cat girls interact with the world of humans without understanding social norms, or simple mechanics such as the purpose of money. The main difference is that in Fantasia the transformation is magic and temporary, where in Kuni Hoshi it's all in the head of the kitten only. Also Fantasia is a short OVA with a single feel good story, where Kuni Hoshi is a fairly complex and even dark at times slice of life / coming of age story.

Economy War and Holy Grail War. Not that similar, but the same overall message. Too much power = Bad, and you can't save everyone.

The same recurring theme, chilling soundtracks, unique plots and most of all a satisfying watch for all the mushishi fans out there. 100% recommended

Both classic kids monster battling anime that are a lot more niche yet similar to more popular shows such as Digimon & Beyblade. Both have sentient creatures based on real world animals. Both have similar aged protagonists.

Other than the important fact that Akira's and Ikuto's hairstyle is almost totally the same, both shows feature characters who chose unique career paths and they have to work hard for it. They have to stay in constant competition to improve.

Both based on a guy set on revenge, while Vinland Saga tends to be more dramatic both animes have a similar core. Both protagonists are set on revenge and both animes don't shy away from their respective worlds' brutality, both don't have an obvious "good" or "bad" side. Again Vinland Saga is more dramatic and powerfull at the cost of bit of realism but both animes feel similar.

Both take place in high schools and feature mythological/supernatural characters alongside humans. "Interviews with Monster Girls" features vampires, dullahans, snowwomen (or Yuki-onna) and succubui, while "Manaria Friends" features dragons. They differ in that "Interview with Monster Girls" takes place in modern Japan but it just so happens to have these supernatural beings, while "Manaria Friends" is in a different world all together and human characters have the potential to learn magic.

If you like Goblin slayer you will probably like Berserk as well. Both have some pretty dark moments and are basically about combating evil. The main characters are both clad in armor and both let there fighting do the talking. While you may start watching berserk and notice that Guts is not as scarred as Goblin Slayer, I would just say watch the first season and then you will see where I am coming from. Without trying to spoil berserk in any way I will just say that by berserk season 2, Guts is a lot more like Goblin slayer in many ways. If you have not seen berserk, it is a must watch and you will most likely get drawn into the Manga as I did.

Essentially through one event all main characters are brought together. There is a secret/hidden society aspect, with primarily the main characters knowing about it. The connection between characters is important (kiznaivers/sunset ravens). Science fiction based around a single strange piece of technology (kizuna system/d-game app). And it's just a straight up cool show.

Both are series the protagonists are the center of supernatural cases which human wills can change the effects... Also both of them have quality lolies andd the MC has a harem

The creators of both movies took inspiration from a book called Night on the Galactic Railroad. One of these works is an adaption with the work which softens the tale for a child audience by making the character anthropomorphic cats , while the other takes it's own spin on the concepts presented in the book, yet takes a much darker twist. Both tales also pull at the viewers heartstrings.

Both are very "trippy" and spiritual experiences. They both offer interesting views on the natural world and the foundations of our existence. Very good if you are feeling a bit existential. Both have very distinct art styles as well.

Obviously both deal with the sea, but I would say they also have similar themes of connection to nature/living with nature. They are tonally quite different, one being a romance drama and the other being much more of a spiritual journey, but there are some overlaps in mood.

Both are very much focused on nature and how the world works, both the seen and unseen world. Both are very 'spiritual' experiences that can alter your world view. Very beautiful animation and sound design.

both Isekai both have an aspect of harem (stronger in Arifueta) KonoSuba less serious than Arifureta both enjoyable animes to watch

Nanoha really reminds me of Sumomo and vice versa. Most of the show is kind of based around how moe you think the girls are.

Naruto is a Japanese shonen and Mo Dao Zu Shi is from the Chinese genres wuxia and xianxia, ​​both of which are fights, martial arts and adventures. In Mo Dao Zu Shi the protagonists begin as rivals, of opposite character but develop a very deep friendship like Naruto and Sasuke. In both there are characters who lose all their Clan, and characters with a tragic past. When I saw Mo Dao Zu Shi (Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, or Founder of Diabolism) I seemed to return to when I was 14 or 15 years old and I saw Naruto full of emotion.

Humans vs supernatural beings in an urban dystopia. Wacky, jazzy vibes despite the dark themes in the plot. Good animation, nice art, very interesting characters.

-Both feature protagonists thrust into a world in which they must use their specialized skills from Earth (survival tactics vs book/craft knowledge) to survive -Both feature somewhat younger child characters as the protagonist -Both are a little slower paced but give a lot of detail and attention to their respective fantasy worlds -Both are a little hampered by lower production values, but make up for it in their writing -Both protagonists have blue hair (almost entirely inconsequential but a little funny nontheless)

These are "Two Stories" for they regain their very important memories. Both are totally different plot and genres, but similarities also many at the same time. Let's talk about them. Well-made and so beautiful visuals. Color design even similar. Just like fantasy. You'll love it if you prefer that kind of animation. Both songs are quite eargasm. Shelter has one song, but messages are very strong as same as K. This is not just music video. Atmospheres are middle of serious and heartbreaking. Shelter has the latter the most. K has some great episodes for feel faith. Setting of Rin is very similar to Yashiro. They lost necessary memories for them. And they're misled by back worlds. But they continue to notice and find for get their true nature. K characters are really firm and strong. ED song, title, Lyrics of K are fitting Rin's personality very much. Neko and Rin were each lone until see a certain person. K and Shelter titles have various meanings. K is Kings and others. Shelter is literally that. High sense names for me. Both are telling mankind bonds with viewers. It depends on you whether you like Shelter as K fan. I believe you like it.

One day, destinies of two people changed. But not pessimism. It's way for walk to the bright future. Both have amazingly beautiful art, very nice songs, stalwart characters. Fantastic and gorgeous. Mitsuha and Rin are so adorable girls in every way. They're positive and likable. And part of symbols. They get involved unknown worlds by a certain events. Full of alienation. Especially Rin. However, they never give up. Shelter only six minutes though, little similar to Kimi no Na wa. in terms of story. You can know if you listened both songs. Because meaning of their songs are very deep. Shelter tends to it. As you can see, Shelter is AMV which made by Official staff. Kimi no Na wa. has more detailed story. Aside from whether it's good or mediocre, I think plot of this movie is decent except some flaws. On the other hand, Shelter storytelling seems abstract, actually have a point IMO. This AMV has essence as same as Kimi no Na wa. As a result, both works are really emotional and thought-provoking about human nature. In a word, reasonable. You'll love Shelter if you're a big fan of Kimi no Na wa. or Makoto Shinkai. After watched this AMV, you'll feel happy for someone.

Trust me the Military warfare of the mercenaries and rebels in this movie SCREAM Black Lagoon to me. It has the same aesthetic too. They both have military mercenaries. The secondary antagonist in the Psycho Pass movie who's the leader of the criminal Russian (I think) mercenary group who are expert killers for some shady government has a similar personality to Dutch in how buff they are, how they talk, and how they both want to recruit the Main Character into the mercenary group for hire. Also, in the Roberta (the kiiller maid in Black Lagoon) and the Colombian boy she's protecting are both from a Latin Country that's at the point of Rebellion and Revolution with Civil Unrest. Roberta used to be a member of a rebel group that opposed the Government. Which is exactly what Shinya Kougami is a part of in this movie. However, there's a lot of Ecchiness, alcohol, and Movie Lover references throughout the 3 seasons of Black Lagoon which is different from the Psycho Pass movie. Also, Black Lagoon doesn't deal with Technology and how the future is changing our lives and the psychologic angle and effect on a society.

Both are death game animes but up until now, Mirai Nikki has a more solid plot compared to D-game. Both are entertaining but only watch them with your brain switched off. If you think too hard about them each you'll find a lot of concepts that don't really make sense.

I'm not going to sugar coat this but K-On is a lot better than endro overall. However, I do recommend endro if you like K-On just because of the fact that they both have likeable girls and comedy that will crack you up. Be warned that Endro only really picks up in terms of the story after episode 6 so if you aren't that patient then ignore this recommendation.

Completely different storylines but they sure have some similarities in between: - Characters have superpowers - when characters use their powers their eyes glow(kinda) - in DTB they have to pay a depth after using their abilities, in Darwin's game there is n depth but there is a grading system, gaining points or losing points - main characters look similar

Both advertisements for Lotte Ghana chocolates which double as music videos. Both have themes of romance and an upbeat nature.

Both are thrillers that will have you guess at every turn. What's happening here? Who am I supposed to trust? Is this character mentally insane? You have to have patience to watch both series, and they're both suspenseful. But all will be revealed in the end, dear viewer, so continue to watch! And they're both amazing series in my book :)

Both shows focus primarily on life of High School boys and the challenges/comedic moments that they go through. They are also both broken up into mini shorts in each show so it is very easy to watch. Both have great laugh out loud scenes and are great watches whenever you are in the mood for some great comedy!

Both have teams; "D-Team" & "DATS". Both these teams ally themselves with the series creatures, Digimon & Dinosaurs. Savers targets an older audience but both shows have similar tones and premise.

Both kids anime that follow young human heroes who ally themselves with their series' respective sentient creatures. In both the kids join the cause/battle of their creature companions and face a common enemy. Both shows also have similar senses of humour.

The premise holds very similar between these two shows. However, darker than black has just a slight edge more of a gritty mafia movie vibe, with its dark city scape, involvement of police force, and 'syndicates'. Overall though, Towa no Quon offers a similar experience as darker than black. You have children with special abilities, mysterious organizations, and all the cliche character mini arcs and tragic backstories that you could expect from a good tried and true japanese anime. However, I'm dont mean this in a negative light. Both shows give me the same feeling I had when I first started watching anime. Coming back to these shows the second time around, I knew the cliches and the storylines and the plot twists, and I knew they weren't quite comparable to the absolute masterpiece, deep, intricate shows I have found and refined my tastes with over the years, but there's something nice about just sitting back, and not thinking too hard about what to do, or what to watch next, and just appreciating the feeling of a show that reminds you what hooked you on anime in the first place. And I think both these shows embody that very well.

Both kids anime that have sentient monster companions to human heroes. Both shows have the creatures communicate with the heroes in order to combat a common enemy. Both more niche alternatives to classics such as Pokemon, Digimon, Beyblade & Yugioh.

The main heroines Taiga and Tenko in both are Tsunderes who want the heroes Ryuji and Samatarou to fall in love with other girls Minori and Kumiko but end up falling and pairing with them themselves.

Both have kindhearted and likeable main characters who also double up as a devil/demon lord. The tone of Maou-sama is a lot more lighthearted whereas Crybaby is more graphic but both shows have a similar premise.

Both popular kids monster collecting anime. Both have intelligent creatures with deep bonds with the human character counterparts.

Both iconic kids monster battling anime that have major themes of friendship, companionship and courage. Tamers is more mature but the premise of both shows is very similar.

Both have extremely talented children who far surpass the capabilities of your average child which opens them up to more dangerous side of the world that your average child would never see, as well the exposure to added danger it also gives them a great opportunity to explore parts of the world your average person isn't even aware exists. Both shows have great senses of adventure and dark tones.

Both have deep world building that focus on a sense of mystery to the show's world which our heroes must try to figure out. Both have deep rooted deception and secrecy. Both have creatures that are a huge source of fear for the humans characters as they actively eat people.

Both focus on young children characters but have a darker tone to the show despite the cute characters. Both have these cute children juxtaposed with a dark & unforgiving world. Both have the main characters struggle to survive in a extremely hostile environment.

It has the same atmosphere, both are about detectives and solving cases.

Kinos journey is more about a young girl and her motorcycle buddy traveling from city to city in order to understand the world more clear. Somali is about a young girl traveling with a golem who she calls her father. The golem travels from places to places in order to find humans and return the girl back to her parents. Throughout both series, they both carry relaxing vibe, beautiful scenery, heartwarming and heartwrenching themes. They meet many different people in their journeys and make great connections, then move on to the next city leaving a bittersweet ending each time. If you like one, you'll like the other. Kino has the same personality as the golem where they both are monotone, believe that they both lack emotions but you can tell from their actions that they do have feelings. Definitely an anime worth trying out

Boogiepop greatly reminds me of the Kara no Kyoukai franchise. Both are told in unchronological order where each piece is both an independent story and a piece of a larger puzzle. Main characters of both shows are young women with split personality and supernatural powers. Both are very atmospheric and have amazing soundtracks.

Despite heavily contrasting in tone, both shows show pretty accurate (and vastly different from Hollywood) portrayals of medieval times during wars

Utterly absurd. This is how I would describe the premises of these two anime for the majority of the time. Granted, every so often (more often in Nanbaka) the show will grace you with a wonderfully dark twist. If you like the colourful cast of One Punch Man and high-intensity action scenes, Nanbaka would be a great next watch.

Slice of life romantic comedies with many gay characters sprinkled in... Sounds perfect if you ask me and if this is your cup of tea, then you will definitely enjoy Given. Tentatively, I say that Given has a more mature plot in the sense that it's harder to predict the twists it takes and has characters that have much more depth than those of Yuri!!! on Ice. Still, I love both of these anime and neither one was disappointing in the least.

Oresuki has a lot of intrigue and it turns the Harem genre on it's head by making all the characters trying to destroy one another's reputations to try and be who they want to be with. It does have some annoying fan service and a swimsuit episode but I enjoyed it because the characters all felt real with good and bad traits for all of them. If anything at least finish episodes 1-3 for the huge plot twists that blew me away...

Dark anime with psychological horror aspects to them as well as beautiful animation. Sound good? With likeable main characters and plots that will mess with your mind, both of these anime are definitely worth your time. Death Parade may have a slower plot progression than The Promised Neverland but is completed with a finale that will leave you breathless.

Other than having main casts where some of the characters look suspiciously similar, they both deal with the main boy, girl and a fun group of supporting characters behind them. Both are comedies with major modern supernatural elements and a slice of life feeling for the majority of the episodes.

Over the top zany comedy with a lot of ecchi humor. In Rance, the comedic couple "lecherous asshole" and "overabused girl with heart of gold" are split into two personas, Rance and Sill. In Maze, the titular character changes gender and is pretty much Rance at night and Sill at day. If you can laugh about the humor of one, you can laugh about the humor of the other. Rance is slightly funnier, and wouldn't deserve the hentai tag in 2020 anymore - there is R+ stuff out which is tougher.

Battle royale. D-Game battle royale take place in real world. GGO battle royale take place in virtual world.

A group of spy girls. Princess Principal is darker and deeper while Release The Spyce is mixed with CGDCT

Both classic kids anime. Both have revived ancient monster spirits. Both have young children characters. Both have companionship with the revived monsters and the kid characters. Both have intense battles and wide varieties of monster designs.

3 young female protagonists enjoying life as they can and some ridiculous situations, episodes composed of little segments, basically Mitsuboshi is a light version of Asobi Asobase's blue humour

they are both depressing. the animation on both of them is done very well in my opinion. both of them have a rather classic shounen structure in regards to the treatment of the protagonist. also both of them are supernatural. you get a similar feeling from both of them. although i would say attack on titan overall is abit better as the ending to deadman wonderland is just a backhand slap. with that ending a sequal is neccessary but none will come. my only complaint is that one of the episodes makes abolutely no sense.

Both second seasons of classic kids anime. Both have monster companions. Both have young children main characters.

Having watched quite an amount of SoL animes, I found that Koisuru Asteroid has a lot of elements that resemble the Tamayura series. Tamayura is a long original series while Koisuru Asteroid is a 12-episode anime adapted from the manga. Tamayura delves deeper into each individual character and is a much slower anime compared to Koisuru Asteroid. Both animes emphasize on the theme of "to each his own". They feature characters that have different interests but somehow able to form relationships through events and encounters; Thus, making them more diverse than most school anime. In Koisuru Asteroid, it has subjects on astronomy, earth science, tabloid and bakery while Tamayura has photography, theatre, cooking and exploration. Both animes feature going to new places to discover new things. Koisuru Asteroid often has club activities that require the characters to visit exhibitions in different prefectures. In Tamayura, characters venture out to discover new points of interest. Both animes emphasize on the coming-of-age period faced by students. Some of the characters are lost in lives and have no idea what they really wanted to pursue after graduation. Both animes emphasize on the theme of "life goes on" and didn't shy away from topics on separation and new encounters. Seniors will eventually have to graduate while new freshmen will arrive.

Really similar characters, especially Ootani and Yano. Style of similar designs. Similar story (Ootani had a girlfriend and Yano too)

Very tonally different, but both Flip Flappers and Noir are shows that mostly put episodic adventures in the foreground, with the mysterious main plot developing in the background. The episodic narratives are very enjoyable in both cases and once the shows start focusing on their main stories more, they are absolutely worth the build up. Not too mention the interesting and lovable characters that both series are filled with.

Both have great main characters Also searching for something

Funny slice of life with little gilrs writing manga, its very similar to eizouken

Both are anime with girls in a magical school and are very similar in many ways, such as the magical world they run and the many magical creatures that appear.

We have kids wandering around having fights with their cute monsters while exploring and forming bonds with their monster partners and others around them. Of course, with Pokemon it's more slice of life in a world strange to us, while in Digimon it's more adventure mostly in a world strange to the protaganists. There are elements of everyday life/adventure in each though. Despite being quite different in some aspects, both series have a similar late 90s feel and are really fun, doing a great job at breaking ground for what were fresh franchises at the time.

Both are the kind of slice of life/romance anime that are somewhat rare. Both of them have a very different appeal but you would enjoy watching one if you loved the other.

Although the art styles are drastically different the dynamic between the male and female companion duos are very similar.

Both of these animes go good together, because they both take place in school, and both animes have 4 cute main characters.

Dorohedoro and Dororo share a lot of similarities (including the half similar names! XD) Both shows have Violence, bloodbath Satisfying fight scenes Main character going on a quest to get their bodies/human form back Another supportive main character accompanying them Made by MAPPA While both shows have these common points, they are also very distinct from each other. So it's not like one is an altered version of the other. You'll surely love both of these shows if you're okay with heavy themes like explicit violence and death.,

Both classic kids monster battling anime. Both have friendship as major themes. Both have young children heroes who befriend monster companions and battle villains.

Both shows feature protagonists who don't want any unnecessary attention but attract a colorful cast in spite of that. Both shows are full of extremely hilarious antics

Might seem surprising, but I felt that these movies are more similar than what meets the eye. They both tell the story of a Japanese woman living before, during and after WW2 (of course, Millenium Actress also covers a time period exceeding the 1950s), the viewer practically witnessing them growing from childhood to adulthood and beyond. Taking the Japanese perspective of the war, both movies show that their culture is not characterised solely by atrocities and violence, unlike what is portrayed in many WW2-themed movies. Deeply connected to rebirth: rebirth of a society, of a country and of the people themselves.

Ping Pong is similar to Mob Psycho because of the fact their artstyles are normally crude and perhaps, ugly, but their respective productions draw out the best of them and as a total work, they are gorgeous and with fluid animation. Apart from these, both works are unique coming-of-age stories (Mob Psycho though shines more in this department at its 2nd season).

Both series, taking place in a snow-covered enviornment, focus on a group of characters helping each other with their personal issues and traumas. Kanon includes harem-esque elements and has strong elements of the supernatural, while Yorimoi remains realistic and is more of a dramatic slice-of-life.

Both movies are set in a school setting, and both movies have intense emotional moments.

Both series focus on a shy protagonist who is dragged into a niche activity by a energetic genki girl. Houkago focuses more on the relationships surrounding the activity, while Susume gives the watcher an in-depth look into its hobby.

Is very fun, touching and much beauty

Hardship as experienced by very young characters.

both are mostly set in space, a lot of drama and great music. Geneshaft is more action oriented while Mugen no Ryvius is a bit darker exploring the nature of human interactions when there is not any clear authority. Also both have a mecha robot in a space ship built from alien technology

both are mostly set in space, a lot of drama and great music both share the theme of a society that has been devoid to a certain extent of emotions but one or more of the characters still has a normal range of emotions. Geneshaft is more action oriented while Seikai has more politics and relationships

-Similar role for comedy appeal - Fans can relate a lot for it's humor or even praise it

Two mainstream Shounen Jump anime with similar protagonists. Large amounts of comedic relief with side characters and self-improvement with protag. Slower-paced story with every fight lasting three to four episodes.

Both give off the same vibes and similar art style that's older. Both about needing to hide to survive. Both species are feared by "normal" humans.

We see both protagonist on their journey with individual supernatural abilities, which give them the opportunity to shape the world how they desire.

In overall, there are many things, it would be hard to name just one of them, so if you like Zero no tsukaima, watch this show. You should not regret it. I hope.

Both series are full of comedic misunderstandings and manipulation. The gags and comedic timing of the characters interactions have a similar levels of fun. So, if you like OreSuki than you should 100% watch Gamers. The only difference between the two series is that Gamers has more of an Otaku feel to it.

In a nutshell, both anime have the very same feeling of mystery and (despite fantasy subject matter) realistic narration trough the eyes of children. The source of the sci-fi mystery in both is different (Dennou Coil: Cyberspace, Penguin Highway: Space-Time anomaly), but the effects on the real world are similar and both movies visualize them similarly. There are many shared story elements in both anime. Protagonists are a group of children who find and research a mystery in their suburban world. Those kids are clever and intelligent, yet have a child-like approach and way of thinking which makes it credible. Dennou Coil is better at story telling and characters, Penguin Highway has superior animation. Both stories are a lot smarter and unusual than average anime plots.

It's about idols without big fanbase. They have really well written characters and songs!

Both explore the themes based around "competition" through amazing characters having different motivations, expectations from the respective games(Table Tennis & Shogi), where they end up & how they have to accept it & move forward. Both do this amazingly by having a lot of "out of the court" stuff, which developes characters & is exactly what makes the "in game moments" great. Both are beautiful & inspiring coming of age tales but while Sangatsu is slow paced, Ping Pong is fast paced.

Seeking the eternal void of anime? Look no further than these two unholy abominations. For if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.

Yuru Camp and Koisuru Asteroid are similar because they both shows are fun and educational. Both shows use Moe to teach you about fields that are not largely explored within the anime community and allow you to expand your horizons. I know both of these shows have made me want to learn more about camping and space. So, if you want some moe, learn a little bit, and have fun in the process you should watch both of these series.
