Over worked employee, a super adorable cute supernatural girl willing to heal their soul with kind and cute actions, both series are focused on that cute trope!! However, while Senko has a lovable level, Shachiku's cuteness is over 9000, so you need to be prepared for the sugar rush you will get thanks to the level of cuteness this series. In more simple words: go and watch both and get your exhausted soul healed with the power of cuteness!!

Now, the two are very different, incredibly so. One may even point out how Higehiro is more cynical and deceptive compared to a more genuine idea of Senko-san. But the fact that there is this huge age gap relationship which is not conventional by normal means is present, and how said relationships like to have some kind of pampering/hospitality take place, the conditions may interest you to have a look at said other anime. Higehiro for a drama, Senko-san for a fluffy SoL.

Senko-san and Uchi no ko no... are both series which will heal your soul just watching them. They are pretty much spiritual siblings.

A harem of obedient kemomimi girls doing cute things while wearing fetish outfits and making ASMR sounds. Wish fulfillment with fish-out-of-water comedy, weaponized moe, and mild sexualization.

The mother’s love. Wolf Children and The Helpful Fox Senko-san both follow mother figures who take care of someone important to them. Wolf Children is Hana and her time in raising her children who happen to be half-human half-wolf. Senko-san is about Senko and her pampering for Nakano as he struggles from hard work every day. Both are good anime with wholesome moments, with Wolf Children being a drama s.o.l, Senko-san being more comedy.

Emiya-san focused on cooking, Senko-san has a lot of cooking parts with similar atmosphere. Emiya-san has light animations, cute looking characters. Senko-san has a good animation with cute characters. Otherwise, both anime are heartwarming iyashikei (healing) anime.

Motherly love. The Helpful Fox Senko-san and Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms follows non-human being acting as a mother figure for someone else they become close with. Senko-san has very hard working Nakano becomes constantly pampered by Senko. Promised Flower has Iorph Maquia take care of the orphaned Ariel due to losing everything beforehand. Both are good anime with wholesome moments here and there, though Senko-san is more wholesome and comedic than the rather dramatic Promised Flower

Comfort. Although Helpful Fox and Blend S have a ton of qualities that differ from one another, they both centre around this wholesome comfort zone for some other individual(s). Whether it be a dedicated relationship or one that allows anyone to come and go yet still be treated the same, at the end of the day, both anime have this nice caring comfort of an atmosphere to show off. Senko-san does this with a magical fox deity, who endlessly pampers. Blend S does this with a fun maid cafe suitable to most tastes. Both are fun s.o.l that I would take if you have nothing better to  read more

Living with an inhuman. Hinamatsuri and The Helpful Fox Senko-san give the same start of a working man suddenly finding a random inhuman being appearing in their homes. Onwards into these stories, Hina and Senko both find their place in these homes. Though Hinamatsuri offers silly situations for the Nitta and Hina, while Senko-san offers a wholesome atmosphere of pampering given to Nakano. Both are good anime comedy anime, though Hinamatsuri focuses more on comedy rather than Senko-san's balance with of s.o.l and romance.

Senko-san and MMHNT both contain really cute girls with animal features and are both slice of life anime. I would recommend both

Both are comfy SoL rom-com featuring a male MC who has been overworked. After the appearance of the female MC. Their life change for the better. The female MC helps the male MC in their daily house chores, cooking delicious meals and giving the male MC the love and warmth that they lack. If you want a rom-com with little drama and that allows you to sit back and relax. These are the 2 anime I can recommend.

Care. Despite different plots, the common feature that the two anime share is that there is a relationship between one that is human and one that isn't. Senko-san is about Nakano and him being constantly pampered by Senko. Boy and Beast follows Ren and his upbringing with Kumatetsu he had been following, which brings for a bumpy road for their relationship. Both are good anime with Senko-san being a heartwarming s.o.l in comparison to a dramatic Boy and Beast.

The 800-year old caring demi-god fox Senko with her shining soft fur maybe nothing like the 16-year old Umaru who is a lazy little troublemaker in her hamster-hoodie in terms of personality, but she sure shares a similar charm. Both Umaru and Senko are orange epitomes of cuteness, and if you liked one, you will certainly like the other! The main scene in both the anime is the typical suburban metropolitan household and both shows find warmth and humor in the most mundane of the quotidian happenings. In addition, the other main character Nakano is very much a workaholic like Taihei, the only difference being  read more

The relationship in both is unbelievably wholesome. It's not every day both couples get an equal amount of respect (although to be fair, Shin no Nakama does a better job than Senko-san). Whilst they are, indeed, both vastly different stories, one cannot deny the impeccable relationship present. From good communication to understanding one another to get through with daily life, these two anime know what it is like to have a great pairing that not alone works well, but makes your heart go doki-doki. I guess the only thing to be aware of though, is that Senko-san is far less romantic compared to Shin no Nakama. What  read more

Both of these anime have very calming vibes, and often end up having very similar scenes. Anywhere from a haircut to ear cleaning to simply teaching someone how to better approach life, they're both about taking care of the main character.

Gal & Dino and Helpful Fox both have a simple premise, they aim to present a chill and wholesome lifestyle with an unconventional yet almost as if they were destined to be pair. Going about absolutely nothing but their daily lives, the two anime present casual life between our protagonists when everything is just calm, no stress and no worries. Gal & Dino doing this in a more upbeat manner in comparison to the actually alleviating Helpful Fox, both still maintaining that relaxed nature to them. With Gal & Dino diverging immensely with its wacky live-action halves, Helpful Fox still remembers its ground, taking no different  read more

Both shows were made by the same studio, Doga Kobo, known for making many cute and cute animes. Both shows have short stories, alternating a very well done and functional comedy. Senko-san is more outgoing, as he tells the daily life of a man who always gets tired at the end of his job. This changes when he meets Senko, a magical Kitsune, who decides to help him alleviate his problems. Maoujou de Oyasumi basically involves a princess trapped in a castle, where the only thing she does is sleep (or look for a better way to sleep).

Both mc get a goddess to take care of them and the pace of the anime are very similar. Both anime are very relaxing to watch. 
report Recommended by RobAma
Both of these anime are relaxing Slice-of-Life shows, that have some supernatural spin to it. In Senko-san, this mostly comes from the fox girls, who pamper the protagonist and take his stress of of him. Though it's mostly realistic, the fox girls are in every episode. Unlike the 1st season, Amanchu Advance adds a supernatural and magical element to the diving one (though it's most strong in one specific arc). Outside of that and 1-2 other episodes, the rest of them are grounded in reality.

Both shows follow an exhausted office worker who, through fantastical means, is able to find respite from his job. Both have a similar peaceful atmosphere and are relatively drama/conflict-free. If you find yourself stressed about a project for work or finals for college, or simply need to unwind after a long day, these two shows are great choices.

Protagonist living alone in an apartement has his life "invaded" by a helpful small girl. 
report Recommended by abystoma2
Both are laid-back slice-of-life shows involving a guy who was living an ordinary, stressful life before having a chance encounter with an animal. Ever since then they live together and the guy's outlook on life has since improved through their friendship. In My Roommate is a Cat, the pet is a cat while in Senko-san, it's a fox girl who is doing the housework to ease his stress. The MC's perspective on life takes a huge turn for the better ever since meeting a new roommate and building their bonds.
