If you liked Vinland Saga Season 2 add

...then you might like Chi. Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite add

Two anime set in Europe during medieval times (barring the difference between Northern and Eastern Europe, and about 450 years). Grounded, mostly realistic, with lots of tension and drama, and humane characters with actual struggles and similar backgrounds and motivations. They both portray a really good representation of medieval times in many aspects, and their visuals are fantastic.

Two gag parody anime from two different eras. Released 11 years apart, they both are basically that one anime that appealed to otaku due to basically half of their humor being based on references to other anime and manga of the time.

...then you might like K-On! add

Moe moe moe!!! Two anime perfect for people whose mental sanity depends on seeing 2D girls on a screen doing silly things for 24 episodes straight. Make it about music or about otaku culture, the essence in these two series is practically the same, and the fallout caused by them is still haunting the internet to this day.

If you liked Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu add

...then you might like Lucky☆Star add

Hirano Aya starring in yet another classic by KyoAni. Similar casts of VAs, and similar character archetypes here and there, not to mention that Lucky☆Star literally references Suzumiya Haruhi every 10 minutes.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like Nichijou add

Non-stop nonsense by KyoAni which have turned into what practically amounts into cult anime. Both Nichijou and Lucky☆Star work as 24 fast-paced episodes of dumb gag comedy that will absolutely kill your last remaining neurons.

If you liked Steins;Gate add

...then you might like Shiguang Dailiren add

Pain. These two shows are for people who like PAIN, like, lots of emotional pain, for no reason other than feeling more miserable than you already are. Time traveling, excellent animation, main characters with completely opposite personalities, superb atmospheres and an almost-unrivaled capacity to create tension. These are the kind of shows you can sit down and watch in a single day.

...then you might like Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai add

Both anime are melodramas which play heavily into their main characters' supernatural abilities as the focal points of the plot, with a similar array of characters.

If you liked Clannad add

...then you might like Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai add

Do you like crying? or feeling like shit over pixels on a screen? Well, either of these two will you do great if the answer is "yes". These two anime are melodramatic romances with an important focus on the supernatural, and with very similar protagonists who go out of their way to help others deal with their problems.

If you liked Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu add

...then you might like Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai add

Supernatural meets mystery meets grounded protagonist meets strange characters. Beyond these two anime sharing very similar arcs, the overall feeling and settings feel familiar to each other, barred the fact one's practically a comedy and the other will make you feel like crying.

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like NegaPosi Angler add

While nothing alike in terms of background plot, both anime are soothing stories about outdoor activities, albeit one more emotionally heavy than the other. I mean, camping and fishing are very similar... right? Uh, they also have a lot of folk soundtrack and comedy, so, yeah, if you like one of these you're definitely gonna like the other.

If you liked Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai. add

...then you might like Shelter (Music) add

Shelter's video was inspired by Anohana, another of A1's works, and the two animations provide a clearly melancholic world in which a young girl, stuck in time, practically lives alone.

If you liked Clannad add

...then you might like Shelter (Music) add

Clannad's background side story, of the girl from the illusionary world, draws a lot of similarities with Shelter's plot, and the sort of melancholy which both scenarios provide through their storytelling and their beautiful animation feel like they're one and the same.

If you liked Sakamoto Days add

...then you might like Bukiya no Mick add

A legendary assassin turns into a convenience store owner / A legendary hero turns into a weapons shop owner. Both stoic, both overpowered, both quiet and comedic. These two stories are practically the same.

If you liked Clannad add

...then you might like Atri: My Dear Moments add

A feeling of melancholy and nostalgia. Follow a crippled and resign male protagonist who gave up on his dreams as his life is changed by a sudden encounter with a certain girl. Both anime were adapted from two visual novels which have received extremely high ratings, and both are sure to eventually make you, at least, want to shed a tear. Perhaps different in setting, but the same in atmosphere.

If you liked Sword Art Online: Alicization add

...then you might like Kono Sekai wa Fukanzen Sugiru add

Two anime which, although ultimately quite different in the way they develop their arguments, follow a similar plot: our protagonist is trapped in a fictional, medieval fantasy virtual reality world, and after meeting a certain NPC character, they embark in a journey as they try to find a way to get out. The way both anime play around with the virtual, programmed realities draws some similarity, as well as with the occasional gore, the realistic NPCs and the world which feels rather alive for a virtual one.

If you liked Sword Art Online add

...then you might like Kono Sekai wa Fukanzen Sugiru add

Oh no! The characters are all trapped in a videogame medieval fantasy world! This is such an unique plot! Following a somewhat similar plot, SAO and Kono Sekai wa Fukanzen Sugiru take the now-rather-common concept of "fully immersive virtual reality RPG" games and traps its protagonist and the rest of the characters in their respective worlds, forcing them to find a way out as they play quite literally a high-stakes game. Both anime have a lot of "gamer" lingo and have, to different extents, their characters abuse the games' systems to their advantage.

If you liked True Tears add

...then you might like Koi wa Futago de Warikirenai add

Drama! Romance! Teenagers! A protagonist who finds himself in a situation in which just about every girl around him likes him, and he's burdened by the weight of... uh... love, apparently. Really, these two anime are perfect for those who love love triangles (yes, love love, indeed) and complicated relationship dynamics.

If you liked Clannad: After Story - Mou Hitotsu no Sekai, Kyou-hen add

...then you might like Koi wa Futago de Warikirenai add

One is an anime, the other a gaiden OVA, but they have just about the same plot, almost as if one copied the other inconspicuously. Great for suckers for plots about complicated love between two twins... if there are many plots like that!

If you liked Nichijou add

...then you might like Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan add

Brain-rotting comedy for those with a twisted sense of humor who have lost far more neurons than the average person. Nobody would have understood this 30 years prior to these anime broadcasting, and I'm sure as hell nobody's gonna understand them 30 years from now.

If you liked Poputepipikku add

...then you might like Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan add

4th wall-breaking, neuron-killing comedy for those with a far-from-refined idea of what "humor" should be. These two anime are basically what you'd get if you asked a chronic shitposter what their ideal vision of an anime is supposed to be.

If you liked Isekai de Mofumofu Nadenade suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu. add

...then you might like Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu add

Cute medievavl fantasy isekai with overpowered kids and cute animals everywhere. Yes, this trope is getting overdone. Yes, it's still cute as heck.

If you liked Saijaku Tamer wa Gomi Hiroi no Tabi wo Hajimemashita. add

...then you might like Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu add

Isekai anime revolving around kids exploring a world which kinda wants to kill them. The setting and situations of the protagonists in these two anime are rather different, but these two are practically as cute as each other.

If you liked Sword Art Online add

...then you might like Mob kara Hajimaru Tansaku Eiyuutan add

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, two anime about characters living in a world with real-life RPG features and monsters. While the two universes are rather different in setting (one's the real world, the other a VR game), most stuff ends up being rather similar: the enemies, the dynamics between characters, the unnecessary melodrama, the cringe shounen trope of characters yelling the name of the movement they're using during a battle... Ah, yes, the sweet smell of generic anime in the 21st century.

If you liked Shakunetsu no Takkyuu Musume add

...then you might like Yuru Camp△ add

What do ping pong and camping have in common? Absolutely nothing! And, still, somehow, these two anime are oddly similar in the way their characters behave and interact with each other, in the way they're designed, and in the way that they'll make any person who has lost their dignity to 2D animated girls go "oh my god they're so cute!". On top of that, the protagonist of both anime is voiced by the same VA!

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Bocchi the Rock! add

While camping and rock bands might not really have much in common, both of these anime shared a rather similar cast of characters, all of whom have a shared interest in which the anime focuses on in its entirety.

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Do It Yourself!! add

Two anime about a group of girls with a shared interest. The way the plot develops throughout them is similar, some characters are alike in terms of personality, and both anime have a calm atmosphere, light comedy and an overall light-hearted tone.

If you liked Anne Happy♪ add

...then you might like Yuru Camp△ add

CGDCT anime with partially-shared VAs. The protagonists of both anime are somewhat similar in personality, and while the focus of both anime might not be the same, they're both quite enjoyable for those who like cute stuff and derpy comedy.

If you liked K-On! add

...then you might like Yuru Camp△ add

Arguably, two anime cut from the same cloth. Sharing the VA for the main character of each, K-On! and Yuru Camp are about a group of very similar girls with a shared interest; music and camping, respectively. These are two easy-to-watch anime that are highly entertaining, comedic and light-hearted, perfect for when you just want to forget about life for a while.

If you liked Gakkougurashi! add

...then you might like Yuru Camp△ add

While hardly alike in their background and plots, both Gakkougurashi! and Yuru Camp are alike in their CGDCT aspects and are definitely enjoyable for fans of the genre.

If you liked Hanasaku Iroha add

...then you might like Yuru Camp△ add

Taking place mostly in rural areas and focusing a lot on the general simplicity of the characters' life, these two anime share a similar atmosphere and vibe, even though their plots might differ, and on top of that, they have some really sweet soundtracks and astonishing visuals.
