Nichijou

Both titles are hilarious school comedy witch absurd gags that will caught you off-guard every time.
Also Sasahara and Sakamoto are literally the same character. 

report Recommended by Piromysl

Nichijou and Sakamoto are both equally similar in how they execute the humor. In both shows, the main characters are all put into extremely ridiculous situations. Consequently, they are all forced to think on their feet, which causes them to respond with overexaggerated emotions and humorous actions that often do not make any sense. In Nichijou, however, the humor revolves around 6 main characters; In Sakamoto, it's just, well, Sakamoto.

Similar random humor. Picture a show centered around Mai but pretentious and you got Sakamoto.

Paniponi Dash! addpermalink

The show has a similar type of humor that completely ignores Western viewer's taste, but rather relies on Japanese viewer's fondness of unpredictable humors. They both have a talking animal (Sakamoto-san and Mesousa), a chibikko sensei in a lab coat (Hakase and Becky), and a dumb energetic girl (Yuuko and Himeko). Both shows also have a very stylish OP theme with plenty of movement.

Comedy. These anime are comedy-based, with the most random jokes that the creators could think of. They both have that school, slice of life element. There's lots of energy, and no drama, so if you just want to relax after a hard day of work, then these are for you.

Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon addpermalink

Nichijou and Kobayashi are both shows that give you a similar vibe in comedy. Nichijou is comedy focused where Kobayashi has some fantasy and more serious moments as well. Both shows are lighthearted and give you the same feeling and are animated by Kyoto Animation. If you have seen one or the other I would highly recommend the other to you. You'll be in for a very comedic and character driven story.

Both series tell stories that are light, fun and sometimes demential. It is easy to become attached to the characters thanks to their 	
pleasantness. 

report Recommended by MegaDany97

Nichijou is an anime about people who may or may not be extraordinary, and their lives which may or may not contain extraordinary things. Maidragon is a bit more extreme, where it's about an ordinary person who crosses with extraordinary beings that ultimately change her life in extraordinary ways. Still, the laid-back and comedic tone of Maidragon makes it feel like a spin-off of Nichijou more than anything. Both series highlight the everyday lives of their characters, and often have extreme and intense moments despite being about ordinary things. These moments are perhaps most notable for their incredible level of animation from the studio Kyoto Animation.
In other words, Nichijou is like a more spastic and random version of Maidragon with more characters and themes, while Maidragon is like a more dramatic and fleshed-out version of Nichijou, but with fewer characters and themes. read more

Almost 10 years after Nichijou another Slice of Life anime takes a huge step in creativity and comedic entertainment. Both passion projects, they rely mainly on comedy and they rarely ever stop having an energetic atmosphere and over the top jokes. One plus I can say about Bocchi is that it uses funny gags to also create a slow but present character development and the adaptation is overall an improvement over the manga from what I've heard

I really liked both Bocchi the Rock and Nichijou as SoL (Slice of Life) animes. Both do a really good job of over-dramatizing the everyday occurrences we partake in as normal but to some are really big events. One of my favorite scenes in Nichijou is the coffee shop scene where Mio tries to order a coffee but the anime animates it as a huge shonen battle scene. If you enjoyed Bocchi or Nichijou, I think you'd enjoy the other.

How can Nichijou not be on the recommendations for this.
It posses a similar tone with short "stories" around random topics related to the main cast.
Even the top notch quality on animation and originality that Poputepipikku has is similar to that of Nichijou. (Even tough I've noticed that Poputepipikku uses mostly CG on their action shots, or to add more detail to the action made. In Nichijou's case it is mostly traditional animation with use of CG for emphasis on backgrounds and keep a consistent scale of said background while blending it with 2D painted backgrounds in close shots).
Also on both shows the characters have defined characteristics that makes then easy to differentiate from each other.

*NOTE: The humor in Poputepipikku is really different than that of Nichijou by being more targeted at mature audiences, but that still does not take away the fact that both are hilarious on their own field.* read more

Absolute nonsense; absurdist humor for those with a refined taste for stupidly incoherent and chaotic comedy that will either make you laugh until you choke, or want to turn the screen off and reconsider what are you doing with your life. Either way, Poputepipikku and Nichijou are worth watching if you're willing to sacrifice whatever neurons you still may have left.

Osomatsu-san and Nichijou are both sketch-based comedy shows. Banking on their unique art style, often-absurdist humor and slapstick, but also being capable of subverting your expectations on occasion.
Osomatsu-san is more of a "true" sketch comedy in that the characters bring their personalities to a variety of roles within the sketches, rather than just playing the same role in every sketch like Nichijou.
Osomatsu is also more vulgar and "adult" with its humor, rather than relying solely on slapstick and absurdist situations like Nichijou.

Both shows focus primarily around a cast of six ridiculous characters enacting bizarre skits warping the mundane happenings of reality. They each have a different flavor to them (if Nichijou is Monty Python's Flying Circus, Osomatsu-san is Kids in the Hall), but if you're a junkie for classic comedy scenes and characters, both should do you well. Also probably the two most meme/shitpost worthy anime out there.

Wordy, yes. Daily life, yes. Trying to do stuff in a Mr. Bean way, yes times ten. Both show share the ways of being funny, if you can really overlook the art style people normally can't. 

Uh, sure, when you watch SZS it's feel like New Zealand All Blacks somehow dominate the monitor, but the real promise of SZS is just the wacky daily life of a very stereotypical cast of characters. Art style simply do the trick of differentiating the show from other school life.

If I like Nichijou I will like SZS, you kidding? No. Darker atmosphere in SZS is not real, it is at most halfway to being black comedy, the real show is pretty much daily life comedy that also discuss politics and social issue in an epic funny way. Nichijou jokes didn't relate much to current social issue though. read more

Barakamon addpermalink

Barakamon and Nichijou are similar shows in terms of what genre each show are a part of, both being slice of life and comedy. Both have amazing art, Nichijou being a completely unique art style and Barakamon just having "Those scenes"; the ones that make you sit in awe. However aside from both having the effect of putting a smile on your face from how cozy and humorous their story can be at times, that is where the similarities end. Barakamon was produced during the summer season of 2014 with 12 episodes, animated by Kinema Citrus (A fairly new studio). Where as Nichijou was produced during spring of 2011 with 26 episodes, animated by Kyoto Animations. The two both follow a different way of being told, Nichijou follows the format of telling multiple stories within the duration of the episode with little correlation from one story to the next. Barakamon follows a more standard format, each episode being a single story with the episodes actually correlating to one another; Barakamon has a much more linear theme compared to Nichijou. The two also differ in the type of comedy slightly, Barakamon takes on a more realistic view and manages to find humor in everyday situations. Nichijou's humor relies more on the scenes that have you wondering "Why is this escalating so quickly?". Regardless of how the story is told or art or whatever else; the two are both very enjoyable watches. Even if slice of life isn't exactly your kind of genre, I urge you to give either a chance. read more

Anyone can run a production system for bullets since they are made to be exactly the same. However, only gifted script writers can produce infinite amount of conversation that always do a clean shot at your laughing nervous system.

Nichijou and Minami-Ke make jokes with words. This two shows are wordy I can't deny that, but they are still pretty funny even after translation. That make a potential comedy that can air anywhere in the world. While Japanese comedy anime have a lot of overacting used to deliver jokes (even the prestigious Gintama go overacting very often,) Nichijou doesn't rely much on them (there are still some, for sure.) Minami-Ke somehow didn't use it at all. You won't see any anime that is as funny without the use of overaction any time soon. 
I will still recommend you to watch Minami-Ke if you find Nichijou funny anyway. Funny conversation, wordy but not boring, and living ordinary life in a distinctively strange way are the shared values of both shows. read more
