I am not recomending "Dog Days" to those who like "Zero no Tsukaima", but recomending "Zero no Tsukaima" to those who like "Dog Days". Yes, there have been a lot of comparisons to the two, because they happen to have male main characters summoned to another world, but beyond that, they are two very different series. "Zero no Tsukaima" is better plot wise and uses humor much better, not to mention has really good characters.

The first thing that came into my mind after seeing Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo? was dog days..Both are fantasy anime in which the hero is invited to another world for participating in a game.

Almost the same, except the main character in anime actually went along to the other world for some excitement, while the other got duped by his own gov't.

Both have the 'boy gets into a completely different world' plot, the boy sucked into the world of the non-human lead. Both are fantasy genres that are fairly recent. (Heck, they're even both 2011 spring titles)

Within both anime, the protagonists are summoned to another world to participate in a game! as well both world having no murder/thief ect. the protagonist are strong in what they do, dog days athletic and in no game no life gaming/strategy/tatics. No game no life deals more with what most strategic games deal with, such as strategy and tactics which i found sophisticated. while dog days deal with more of martial art and athletic skills! If you enjoy one, you'll like to enjoy the other!

Similarities: Both involves the MC's transported in some alternate world. Both have the same, magic, fantasy and action genre. Both anime involves sword play. Both have strange looking creatures. Both MC's are trying to find a way back to their world. Dissimilarities: The MC in one anime is more of a gamer than an ass-kicker, while in the other anime the MC is a real ass-kicker. In one anime the battle is more like a game in which no extras dies, while in the other anime the extras always dies. The MC in one anime seemly enjoys being in the alternated world and doesn't seem to be in a hurry to leave, while the  read more

The similarities between the two series are a bit difficult to describe in words. At face value, the two shows are majorly different, yet we've two individuals with similar personalities falling into another world which needs their help saving it, but they get involved with the royalty of the world. The genders of the main protagonists are reversed, but there are also cat people. Both worlds contain fantasy elements, yet there is a similar feel to the two despite being different from each other.

Both of these cases have a case of people falling into another world and have an Animation style that is cute with bright colors. There is also action built in too.

Battles between characters where nobody gets seriously Injured, but is still acted out as overly dramatic.

In both series, there's the fantasy world where there's fun, action, and adventure like setting. Dog Days and Neptune also both have fan service involving the female cast. In general, they have the same vibe in terms of fantasy. There's also rulers in their perspective worlds. Additionally, there's conflicts between certain nations. Oh and the characters' designs are adorable in terms of visual artwork. In Dog Days though, there's a little romance added in while Neptune focuses more on fun and friendship.

In both of them a kid that had a regular life is thrown in a fantasy world. But, in MÄR they actually fight, and the kid was a nobody with no talent originally, While on Dog Days it's about acrobatics and he already knew how to do them beforehand.

Action adventure fantasy isekai series in which the MC is summoned to the world to be the saviour hero and given a legendary weapon to wield. There's animal girls and riding giants birds and content that's everywhere from edgy suffering to stuff that'd be more at home in a saturday morning kids shows If you watched Shield Hero and wished there were more cute animal girl headpats, then check out Dog Days. If you watched Dog Days and wished it took its grimdark setting seriously, then check out Shield Hero.

Ever wanted to be transported to a kids fantasy adventure world and, on top of the typical antics, end up with a harem of cute girls? These shows do have their more serious moments, but they're mostly lighthearted tales where the main character hangs out with local royalty, solving all their problems because he's more powerful than pretty much any opponent. After dealing with the occasional rampaging demon or dragon, the hero must face an ever greater challenge: how to divvy up his time amongst his haremettes!

After being called to a warring country in need of a hero, our isekai protagonists look for a way to return home while growing closer to the people they're fighting for. Throughout their respective journeys, we get to know more about the world and the characters surrounding the protagonist. In contrast to the bloody, calculated wars of Hyakuren, the world of Dog Days has an approach to war that could only be described as fun - featuring colorful art, announcers, and protection magic. Since this hero is a frontline fighter and not a ruler, more focus is put on the action and show that he puts  read more

Fanservice filled action fantasy stories where the female cast tend to lose their clothing during battle in place of being injured. Both have simple stories that, if not for the rampant sexualization, would basically be kids shows. Where Dog Days focuses entirely on dog/catgirls, the titular character of Momo Kyun Sword fuses with her animal companions. Additionally, Eclair and Momoko have the same voice actress.

Cute animal people having cute adventures in a fantasy setting. While the antics are often playfully lighthearted, the world they live in is implicitly quite dangerous... but then there's an idol concert and who doesn't like idols? Anyway, Dog Days is lewd while Kemono Friends is not.

Both are fantastic dog anime about dogs doing dog things. I highly recommend both of these series to any dog lovers out there.

Both series focus around heroes summoned to another world to save a kingdom in crisis. Both series have a video game feel to battling system setup in the series.

Boy is introduced to fantasy world (In Amagi boy actually stays on earth) given a mission to protect the place the princess is in (Amagi - the theme park, Dog Days - the kingdom). The main lead then partners up with another woman to help protect the place while the princess is kind of in the sidelines watching it happen. Both boys have a hinted romantic pairing with the princess and the girl that helps them and seem to be a better than their job than an average person. There's very minor/light fanservice in both but isn't distracting.

Both are battle centric anime that star humans with animal features(ie cats girls, dog girls and bunny girls) with magic and hints of comedy. They also have a normal human male as the lead. Also kinda fanservicey though Dog Days has a lot more.  
report Recommended by Motherurck
Both anime has an Absurd element. In dog days, the 'war' in the story is less than you expect with the hero defeating enemies while learning the rules of the battlefield. In ben-to, the premise is fighting for half-priced bento and taking it seriously. This is a good anime, so don't judge an anime by it's premise.

-Both show involve a main protagonist with some sort of magical power. -There's some ecchi for those who like it. -The stories aren't fantastic, but they are fun to watch. -The females of these series are anthropomorphic people with animal characteristics. (more than one/series) -Romance is something that exists in both of them.

If you liked the comedy parts of bleach, Dog Days will be sure to make you laught your spirit out. Similarlily, the main charater gets transported to another world and there he has to do some "saving" work. Because in the other world, there is a war going on. Althoug the wars in that world are a bit strange...

In each series, the protagonist is transported to an isolated, seemingly magical land, filled with beautiful women of similar apparent age filled with intelligent animals (In the case of Dog Days, many of these are anthropomorphized. In the case of Nagasarete Airantou, while they aren't anthropormophized, they can still talk). In each, despite the number of perfectly competent adults running around, children are left to make large decisions about the futures of their respective lands. While in Dog Days, there is at least one other male major character (Gaul), each story focuses on the way in which the protagonist interacts with the women around him and his  read more

Both are about a main character who was summoned to another world with weapons being used for combat as well as magic as one of their main forms of combat. The also both are ecchi anime with girls being stripped almost every episode, but Dog Days is less graphic with the fanservice.

actually genres aren't very similar, but their stories are very alike: 1. people are summoned in another world 2. there are dangerous demons in that world 3. characters have some similarities 4. returning to their own world is very dramatic but everything end happily! ^^

Both deal with Wars and have kind of Anthro characters of different species. Big difference is Dog Days is light hearted and Utawarerumono deals with a lot of death and violence. Both have a strong cast of characters though and a good protaganist.

They're essentially the same show in different flavors, normal person gets inexplicably transported to slightly off kilter world and fix everything through their unbelievably reliable Mary Sue powers. 
report Recommended by NavyCherub
Both are fantasy titles that involves magic. The protagonist is shoved into the politics of the setting. Both protagonists happen to be already good in what they're doing in the start of the series, but fit in the 'bumbling idiots' section.

Both of these series are good if what you are looking for is a simple, easy going storyline that you don't have to think much about, but can still possibly enjoy, depending on your mood.

Brightly colored girls, dealing with the supernatural world around them, not to mention two guys who have been choosen as the hero for the show by the girl, and of course, there is the romance.

both have that medieval/fantasy/magical power kind of stuff to it. basically the setting is pretty much the same both have one regular guy with lots of potential meeting royalty and being the "hero" the animation, the characters and how they look are very similar one of the main characters are also a tsundere

both main guys go into another "world" so their basically outsiders but they manage to make friends and stuff both main guys are voiced by the same dude (who btw is awesome) both guys are very flashy and artistic and already know some moves before coming to the "anime" both have a lot of female leads behind them. both have shounen battles both main female leads are of high status and can't leave where they are so easily. their's colourful hair everywhere in both animes. there's little to no blood, but their still both mature animes.
