Anime Recommendations

Both the animes are about Idols, but Theyre very different, both have a female cast, and when watching both of these shows, you always are on your tip toes (:. I love both of this shows and theyre so perfect. I feel like both of these shows are underrated, but i highly reccomend you watch them. PS: The Music for both of this shows are amazing and I have them on my Spotify.

Both "The Apothecary Diaries" and "Snow White with the Red Hair" are slice-of-life anime that focus on young women who find themselves in new and unfamiliar environments. They both have a gentle and heartwarming tone, and they explore themes of friendship, self-discovery, and acceptance. Similarities: -Both anime focus on young women who are outsiders. Mao Mao is an outsider in the palace due to her low social status, and Shirayuki is an outsider in her new kingdom due to her red hair. =Both anime explores themes of friendship and self-discovery. Mao Mao and Shirayuki both make new friends and learn more about themselves as they navigate their new lives. -Both anime have a gentle and heartwarming tone. Both anime are lighthearted and uplifting, and they will leave you feeling good after watching them.

- Both have somewhat naive or ‘airheaded’ female protagonists - Both are unusual magical girl shows (still, tutu more so than Kobato) - Both can be quite bittersweet at times - Both can be watched over the course of a single weekend (no additional content, just optional recaps / side stories

Hear me out , there's music lol. But for real its a pretty damn good show that isnt too idol heavy ( i hate idol shows). I was able to enjoy this. good suspense , amazing pilot episode

Absurd humor and some wholesome stories in small amounts, without too much connection between them. These two animes are certain to entertain in small bits at a time with their out-of-the-box comedy.

Supernatural stories wrapped around a veil of death and gore. Protagonists who decide to talk to a cute girl who turns out to be different than what they expected. Deep and intricate plots with lots of interesting aspects. Two animes that, while not similar plot-wise, are equally capable of making the viewer feel uneasy and frightened.

Both have series with a young main protagonist who both have blonde hair and brown eyes and fight evil by turning into an older magical girl. Both series also have similar art. Ririka is a little darker than akazukin chacha, while chacha is just pure comedy

Both depict the stories of young women who are on a journey to unravel messages left to them by people of their past. While Frieren takes place during European medieval times, Violet Evergarden seems to be post-industrial revolution era. Both girls have light hair and striking light eyes, and are conventionally quite pretty. Their monotone, soldier-like voices are uncanny, but as you continue watching the series you'll notice how many layers of emotions they hide underneath. While Frieren has more world-building, Violet Evergarden focuses more on Violet's (the main character) psyche and inner turmoils. Whilst sparse, VE does have a couple of action scenes, whereas in Frieren, fighting is showcased in almost every episode. Both, however, hold the same melancholy tone that made my chest ache throughout. Basically, both series are fantastic! If you like slice of life; emotional anime, you might like Violet Evergarden more, but if you prefer action then Frieren might be it for you!

Both series portray the supposed villainess of the story as a lovable tsundere as opposed to the antagonist they were framed to be in their in-universe otome games. While both female leads from either anime share a love for their respective villainess, one simply tries to wingman and the other actually harbours romantic feelings. They're both quite cute!

socially anxious lesbian girl fulfils her childhood dream of doing their hobby in a group with their new friends

Relatable for people with social anxiety. Both stories are rather simple, but very likeable. Same goes for characters.

Both are stories that focus on unresolved trauma and how tragedies of the past influence the current generations. I like the fact that none of the characters in either are artificially made to make them likable (or unlikable) but rather that act like humans in front of adversity. Both are also stories of loss and the meaning of true love further than the romantic type of love. Finally, if you love unconventional animation, you'd love how both are directed.

Join some adorable hamsters in their fantastical adventures. If you want to see cute anthropomorphic pet hamsters and fantasy then check out Tottoko Hamtarou Movie 1: Ham-Ham Land Daibouken, Hamtaro's first feature-length film, and Baja no Studio: Baja no Mita Umi, sequel to Baja no Studio.

Peek into the daily lives and adventures of pet hamsters. If you're looking for shows similar to Hamtaro then check out KyoAni's Baja no Studio franchise. Tottoko Hamtarou: Anime Dechu! is an OVA with four short episodes while Baja no Studio only has one episode.

- Both Kobato and Nozomi are teachers (well, technically Kobato isn’t qualified) and often have to resolve the kids’ conflicts in episodes - Both leads are a little on the air-head side but still mean well - Both involve supernatural elements, although Otona’s are more pronounced

Same mischievous main girl personality. Innocent main character, Goofy moments and slow progression of romance. Girls that cant be honest with their feelings.

Extremely sad and dramatic anime, Good sountracks and just one season.

Overpowered MC, Reincarnated in another world. Has his own harem.

Similar post apocalyptic setting, Dystopian world. Gorgeous hand drawn animation. Bike races.

Both works feature a stoic male lead who's character is heavily shaped by his experience in war Both works are more generally about a class of people who are used to fight their respective societies' battles for them, and both then proceed to use that concept to explore themes of generational trauma and the relationship between society and war Both works explore put emphasis on the lives of soldiers off the battlefield, and use that to explore the idea of finding meaning when one's life and future is defined by nothing but war. Both works feature well-animated and engaging CGI-heavy battles

Yasuna Oribe... reincarnated into Rae Taylor and Sonya became Claire her villainess... both story goes of a girl who loves to be abused by their beloved tsundere villainess. basic both anime have gag comedy.

In a genre with so much will they won't they, it can be refreshing to have a main character who is already in a relationship. Both series feature absolute chad MC's---male main characters who have a funny, endearing, and loving personality which warrants the absurd amount of love they receive. Thanks to their main characters, both shows are significantly funnier than any other in the harem romcom genre, and though each character may be deranged, they at least act in ways which are consistent with their version of derangement.

These romantic comedy series feature a well developed romance with a significant age gap. Trash which can compel one to overlook the taboo nature of the character's relationships and focus on a larger picture has never been so terrible for the soul but so good for selling you on it.

both Mc have the ability to distort magic and cancel others magic attack.

- MCs are travelers, both in a new place each episode - Ginko is pretty mysterious whereas we know the origin of the Elaina - Iyashikei with occasional darker elements - Supernatural elements and creatures in both

Both titleas are similar in general - Issekai - Reincarnation - School - Harem - light story In slight difference - our boy isn't loved by everyone, more likely is hated by them.

They are both about going back to school so that you can change yourself into something better. I really recommend it.

In Ragna, Crimson the protagonist is set to slay all dragons that has taken someone precious away from him. Attack on titan is set in a similar time period, where the main character vows revenge by wanting to slay all titans.

Both involve a hero that has changed affiliation to the demon side to wage war against Humanity. The demon lord opposes the hero in both categories. But eventually sees them as an aid to the demon army

Both Animes have a simular plot, but are exceeded in diffrent ways that keep you tuned to the next episode, in terms of animation and voice acting i say they do a great job, both have a main male with some girls as sidecharacters and ofcourse they both play games, and keep secrets.

They are both anime that involve a god or supernatural like character who by accident have been summoned by the female character of the show, although the better one is Tbhk in my opinion

- Both feature female leads possessing some form of supernatural ability/destiny - Both feature cute plushie-like mascots who accompany the main girl - Both are subtle magical girl shows (something not obvious at first glance, but they both share a lot of similarities with the genre) - Both main girls have beautiful voices, although Mitsuki’s is a major plot point while Kobato’s is more of a background addition

- Both feature so-called “airhead” female leads - Both incorporate supernatural elements into the normal world - Both rely on the concept of spirits/ghosts in particular, as well as touching on themes of grief and loss (more so in Furuba) - Both have similar animation styles, particularly when they devolve into lower resolution images to convey moments of comedy

First when I saw the walls in this anime I literally thought about Shingeki No Kyojin, and the both MCs want to wipe out the creatures the Titans in AOT and the Kabane, Both animes have the same vibe.in This anime and both MCs don't want to run away and wants to keep fighting.

If you wanted to have a complete version of a mystery dungeon anime, I'd say this is your best bet -first of all. Both have similar world building. Both were fantastical worlds that isn't relent on modern technology and has an emphasis on relics. The residents both admire - Both focuses on dungeon exploring, In which also has mysterious creatures living in them - Both also have similar characters one of the main characters waking up not knowing where or who they are. - Both have the characters in an exploration team, In which they were in a similar ranking. .. -The music may also give off similar vibes The main differences I found is that Abyss is more brutal and drama in style

- Both are set in a witchcraft school like in Harry Potter - Both have MCs that face issues with their magic abilities - Unique animation styles in both - Mashle is more slapstick comedy while Little Witch Academia has situational comedy

Phenomenal soundtracks, fantasy horror

Dialogue heavy, character driven series with a crazy amount of character depth, growth, and foreshadowing

Tragic stories highlighting the vices of man with a compelling cast

An early version of what Clannad would be, with it's own magic and soul

Movies about motherhood and kids growing up. Maquia is a personal favorite, though.

Girl's last tour is Made in abyss without lovecraftian monsters. Both a favorite of mine.

Both are shounen anime with an overpowered and muscular main character that fight off against other enemies. Also, both series have a combination of adventure and exciting battles.

Basketball, team playing, similar characters, similar character development.

Very similar humour, romance and soundtrack, though Tokimeki Tonight's characters are more charming, and Igano Kabamaru uses ninjas instead of a supernatural plot. Still, I felt a similar comfy shoujo vibe from both shows.

- Both feature heavy themes of death, spirits, reincarnation, and everything in between - Both feature a teenage male lead who is at least somewhat of a hikkikomori - Both have themes of finally accepting friendship, as well as milder romance tones scattered in between - Both will probably make you cry towards the end (especially AnoHana)

Both stories are themed by burial ceremonies and death in general.

Both are bittersweet fantasy stories where the main character has much longer lifespan than the others around them.

Both shows feature: A detective style character (Narutaki and Roger Smith) A female aide (Hsu Ling Ling and R. Dorothy Wayneright) A butler (Kawakubo and Norman Burg) A big tough robot (Goriki and the Big O) An ally on the force (Onigawara and Dan Dastun) Outlandish villains A dangerous city as a setting

Similar plot devices and tones. An interesting premise and execution in both. Deals with students and human connections. Romantically similar - has some LBGT/poly vibes.

Cute girl with an interested in a deeply otaku topic gets heavily invested in said topic before things go meta. In Animegataris it's Anime specifically. In 16bit it's Eroge VNs. Both discuss the genre, history, and roles needed to develop the media format, and then both lightly hint at some supernatural driver in the first half before going all in with the supernatural element and its effects as the story progresses.

Both series have beautiful and well-thought animation styles, featuring anti-hero protagonists navigating mature themes within episodic storytelling. Both feature captivating soundtracks, complementing their character dynamics within a group setting.

this another anime is the alternative world of naofumi losing control to destroy the world. in tate no yuusha naofumi gets a great emotional damage since btch cause him great trouble but he was geting crazy since he was having hard time but this new anime is a naofumi that gets emotional damage and cat exact his revenge unlike the restriction that naofumi got from being the shield hero a mostly defensive than offensive have him frustrated.

A boy and his friend or pet elephant. Watch some anthropomorphic elephants play and dance to music in the playful music video Zou da Zou as featured in NHK's Minna no Uta and in Sanrio's fantasy short film Chiisana Jumbo which is also about the effects of war.

1) Both have main characters that are OP 2) Both have main characters have secret identities of being normal and a powerful being 3) Both have side characters that are way to into what he does and says. They go along and pull him into their antics, or vice versa 4) Both have an "evil syndicate" that is in the background that both characters just happened to make up and is real. They are now forced to fight that group.

Goblin slayer is seriously the cautious hero without being over exaggerated. both mc got a blonde companion. the actual cautious hero is comedy with a straight face too.

Slice of life but with cute kaiju. The chibi kaiju have plans of dominating the world but they are currently living with humans as they prepare for domination.

Similar vibe. Eden of the East is a bit lighter and comedic in tone. Girl meets guy. Guy is mysterious and blows things up occasionally. One of those shows you can't get bored of.

While at a glance, the two seem to be entirely different genres, both anime share similar themes of afterlife and memory loss. When I watched demon slayer, I felt the same emotions I felt when I watched angel beats. It's a bittersweet feeling. Life regrets and the leap it takes to "move on" from said regrets are perfectly represented in both series.

"The Raven of Inner Palace" (Kokyu no Karasu) is very, very similar, if you're in the mood for more palace adventures in the ancient Forbidden City. Like this series, it has a charismatic and feisty young protagonist, the enigmatic Raven Consort, who solves mysteries in the Inner Palace with her sharp wit. We also have palace intrigues and supernatural mysteries. And a beautiful historical setting. I highly recommend it. It is very addictive, and if you like "The Apothecary's Diaries", you will love it.

Family guy with unusual and incredible traits struggling on the ugly side of the society.

In the vast and dynamic landscape of anime, the transition from the poignant symphony of artificial intelligence in "Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song" to the dystopian tapestry of survival in "Darling in the FranXX" marks a seamless yet striking shift in thematic exploration. "Vivy" intricately weaves a narrative thread that probes the depths of AI consciousness, offering viewers a thought-provoking journey through time and technology. As one delves into the realms of artificial intelligence, the series prompts introspection on the essence of existence, consciousness, and the intricate dance between creator and creation. On the flip side, "Darling in the FranXX" catapults viewers into a future where humanity grapples with the remnants of a devastated world, finding solace and purpose within the confines of formidable mechs known as FranXX. Here, the narrative unfolds through the lens of human relationships, exploring the complexities of emotions, identity, and the inexorable connections that bind individuals. The vibrant mecha battles add a visceral layer to the storytelling, juxtaposing the sublime with the apocalyptic. What makes these series a compelling recommendation in tandem is the thematic resonance that echoes between them. The exploration of identity, existential questioning, and the profound impact of relationships forms a common thread, creating a thematic bridge for those seeking a diverse yet interconnected anime experience. "Vivy" lays the groundwork with its elegant storytelling and philosophical musings, setting the stage for the emotional rollercoaster that awaits in the post-apocalyptic landscapes of "Darling." As you traverse the boundaries of these two series, be prepared for a journey that transcends the conventional boundaries of anime genres. Together, they offer a tapestry of emotions, intellectual engagement, and visual splendor, ensuring that the transition from "Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song" to "Darling in the FranXX" or vice versa is a captivating odyssey that leaves a lasting imprint on the anime aficionado's soul.

If you liked the aspect of how family bonds and relationships were presented in fruits basket and the struggles of finding your own place in the world, then I think the Natsume Yuujinchou series is just the perfect match for you.

The main characters in both anime are VERY similar—a tomboy with red hair who is very loud and strong. While Tomo's punches come more from embarrassment, Anzu's punches come from frustrations more than embarrassment. (They are even voiced by the same voice actor, who is amazing.) Both are romantic comedies based in high school. Both have a "childhood friend" love potential. That is about where the same tropes end. Tomo wants love while Anzu is running away from it. They are similar and fun with having differences that make the anime more like siblings rather than twins, if that makes sense, haha.

First of all, both anime share a common theme, and that theme is video games. Both anime have action, adventure and fantasy genres, and both main characters are high school VRMMO players. Compared to the Sword Art Online anime, SLF's plot is a bit more conventional, but it's also quite unusual. If you have watched SAO and liked it, SLF is the anime for you, but if you liked SLF, I recommend SAO. Finally, I would like to add that when I think about what SLF has that SAO doesn't have, I think of comedy and more action.

both anime are about creating visual novel games with bishoujos.

Their consepts about psychological issues, especialy puberty issues. Which means if you like animes that about characters issues and handle method agaisnt their problems, you love both of them. For more recommendations, you must watch EVANGELION, Yahari ore no seishun love comedy wa machigettairu, perfect blue, maybe mushoku tensei and serial experiments Lain.

Similarities - Hero liking too much Farming? Yes - In some way strong to protect friends? Yes - Isekai with some fanservice and girls all around our Hero? Yes - Light nad enjoyable story as well It have better animation and drawings, also was easier to watch, but DON'T DO IT UNLESS YOU ALONE!

Short comedy shows with lots of wacky ecchi moments combined with the goofiest characters imaginable whose only wish is simple and yet impossible due to their awkward behavior around girls

The basic concepts are definitely similar. Both shows feature an unconventional family dynamic made up of two adults in dangerous fields of work (spies and assassins) who end up adopting daughters and the comedy elements revolve around these dangerous people trying to navigate parenthood. I feel like Spy x Family is more suited to those who prefer more ridiculous comedic elements and Buddy Daddies is more suited to people who prefer comedy that's a little more grounded. Buddy Daddies is a grittier show with considerably darker moments and themes at times but both are brilliantly funny and surprisingly wholesome. If you want a sweet family story with a little grit thrown in then both of these are good choices.

Both are RomComs. Single season introduction to Anime RomCom style. Short, easy to digest, and easy on the newcomers.

Wotakoi feels like the grown-up version of My Love Story with Yamada at Lv999. Also, in both shows, the male MC is quiet and an introvert while the female MC is cheerful and an extrovert. Both male MC are also gamers. If you love one of these, give the other one a try!

Sweet and fluffy romcoms with a slow-moving romance. The chemistry between the characters are similar, where the couple doesn't do much to further their relationship but are pushed/supported by the people around them. Both are pretty episodic, are set in fantasy setting and uses bright colors, giving them a similar feel and watching experience.

They both are very similar !! They both have school girls play in a band , but Bocchi takes on a more realistic take but i love both of them !!

Absurd, plotless sci-fi shorts with girls moaning. Do you want to lose braincells? Please enjoy.

What I like is that both have main male characters that aren't your generic cry baby. Which is always refreshing. Also the vibe has something a little bit similar. Definitely liked both!

both deal with the theme of spirits, with violent scenes of horror.

They all have the same drama theme, which makes you very emotional during the series.

• Both are parody of shoujo reverse harem genre. • Both are quite enjoyable with lots of intresting character. There is a perfect balance of comidy and drama in both the series. • Both the anime have a below avarage animation.

The female lead, who is a villainess, is trying to survive so as not to die

his detective partner has the same vibes, dealing with strange detectives

a sport in which characters struggle to achieve victory (Pure, no strange techniques)

The female lead is both an expert on medicine

The female lead, who is a villainess, is trying to survive so as not to die

Older lady takes care of a girl of supernatural origins. Those short videos also have visuals that are both cute and aesthetically cool to look at.

pink haired green eyed demon girl manipulates love interest/mc by changing his physical appearance every episode in an episodic format

- Both feature teenage (well, technically Mitsuki is 12) female leads balancing school/home life with their dreams - Both incorporate themes of death/ghosts, although using different elements - Both sets of supernatural events have a known time limit effectively counting down from episode 1 - Both have a similar art style (that classic early-mid 2000s look) - Both have moments of comedy mixed in with heavy drama - Both have a bittersweet love story going on behind the main plot line

Both shows have very similar main character, about a genius high school boy (piano in Your Lie in April, shogi in March Comes in Like a Lion) who is depressed and have traumas from the past. The shows' also have many the protagonists' inner monologue, and the story is slow paced. If you like one of these, give the other one a try.

There are significant parallels between these two shows in relation to storytelling & characters. Character wise, Frieren & Kino are both vagabond travellers by nature; who share rather similar dispositions and personalities. They can be stoic, kind, charitable, sometimes aloof, and yet won't hesitate to be decisive, cold and will be willing to kill when needed. They were both taught and trained by a master who impart rather important philosophies and lessons when it comes to combat & life lessons. They also travel with a companion(s) as they journey around various lands; sometimes lending help to others and learning about the plight of the people. Both of these stories also master the art of nuance, where elements of mystery & plot points are answered and yet not necessarily need to be shown or discussed. Audiences tend to piece together answers with all the plot points presented in different time periods yet connect in an interconnected series of events. In the overall world building, they both do a good job at depicting an immersive world rich in culture and societial sensibilities. Kino's Journey has a more functional realism of the world; whereas Frieren, Beyond Journey's End has more fantasy & magical elements.

In the chizuru Multiverse this time... although the characters has different names and background story the soul remain the same... Chizuru new role in The iDOLM@STER Million Live!? is as Shiho Kitasawa. the appearance is almost the same but much earlier than Kanokari... a young chizuru realizing her dream in the show biz.

Boys doing weird sexual things and girls being entertained by it. Both feature teenagers with strange fetishes, a focal point of the anime. In both our protagonists meet a girl who accepts and enable them.
