Both have themes of new-found friendships and death, and involve an attempt to bring a character out of their shell. They also have a sombre feel, and do not sugar-coat the idea of loss, making them both highly-emotional anime.

Both are high school reverse-harem kind of shows, with a strong focus on romance tropes, but in more of a poking-fun-at kind of way. They're fun, light-hearted, and easy to watch.

They're both movies with romantic undertones where the leads are basically polar opposites. Both movies also have a unique and beautiful art style, and are very heartwarming.

If you liked Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun add

...then you might like Fruits Basket 1st Season add

Both shows are in the romance genre, and the main girls are similar to one another. However, Fruits Basket has multiple love interests, and Nozaki only has one. Both shows are also more character driven then plot driven (at least during the first season of Fruits Basket, I dropped it after that so I can't talk about the rest of the show). Overall, Nozaki seems like a more modern version of Fruits Basket in some ways. If you liked one of them, you'll probably like the other.

If you liked Cheer Danshi!! add

...then you might like Bakuten!! add

- Both follow all boy's sports teams. - The sports (cheerleading and rhythmic gymnastics) are pretty similar. - Overall similar vibes.

If you liked Haikyuu!! add

...then you might like SK∞ add

Sk8 the infinity honestly feels like condensed Haikyuu. They have extremely similar vibes and tones and the characters are also alike. They're both sports anime and lay the themes of friendship and hard work on pretty thick. If you liked one of these shows, you'll probably like the other.

If you liked Cheer Danshi!! add

...then you might like Skate-Leading☆Stars add

Both are sports anime centred around a group of boys competing as a team in a sport that are usually seen as being more 'feminine'. In Cheer Danshi, the sport is cheer, and in Skate-Leading Stars, although the actual sport is made up, figure skating as a sport is often seen as being female-dominated. There are also a few similar characters in the shows such, such as Mizoguchi from Cheer Danshi and Kiriyama from Skate-Leading Stars, and, overall, the shows just have similar vibes. If you liked one, you'll probably like the other.

If you liked Toradora! add

...then you might like Horimiya add

Both shows are slice of life romance anime set in a high school. The main girl in both shows is a tsundere, which is more apparent in Toradora, and she shows a side of herself to the main guy that she doesn't want to/let anyone else see. Both shows are more character-driven rather than plot-driven and are both, overall, just a good time.

If you liked Love Live! School Idol Project add

...then you might like BanG Dream! add

Both shows follow a group of high school girls who pursue music. In Love Live, the girls form an idol group and in BanG Dream, they form a band. Both shows are mostly light-hearted and cute and are mostly character-driven instead of plot-driven. Overall, both shows have extremely similar vibes.

If you liked Hoshiai no Sora add

...then you might like 2.43: Seiin Koukou Danshi Volley-bu add

Both shows are short and are technically sports anime but feel less like sports shows and more like dramas. They both have a fairly small cast of characters and each character feels like they could be a real person. Both shows also tackle real, personal issues and can get heavy at times.

If you liked Blend S add

...then you might like Nekopara add

Both shows are based around a maid cafe with some kind of gimmick - for Blend S, it's that each of the girls takes on a persona based off of a popular trope and for Nekopara, it's that the girls are, in fact, cat girls. Both are light-hearted shows with little to no real plot but are still enjoyable to watch.

If you liked Given add

...then you might like 2.43: Seiin Koukou Danshi Volley-bu add

Both anime are short shows, Given having 11 episodes and 2.43 having 12, that are considered BL and deal with dark topics (which I won't go into because spoiler reasons). In my opinion, the two shows have very similar vibes. They are extremely feel-good and fluffy during some parts but sad during others. If you liked one of these shows, you're sure to like the other.

If you liked Gamers! add

...then you might like Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun add

They are both fairly short slice of life shows in which an antisocial gamer boy and a popular girl, who just so happens to secretly enjoy video games, get closer and fall in love. They also both contain quite a lot of generic high school shenanigans that are over-dramatized for the sake of plot. If you enjoyed one of these shows, you'll surely enjoy the other as they're basically the same thing in a different font.
