Both were scripted by Mari Okada, and these are by far the two shows that she has written that are the closest to each other, as far as I know, and here's why: >Both have a fantasy/supernatural setting attatched to the Girl Main Character (regardless of it being real or not); >This leads to a similarity in both shows' objectives, which is said girl coming to terms with her situation(though in very different ways); >Both deal with multiple love triangles inside the main group of friends; >These love affairs eventually lead to the emotionally similar climax of the shows, although in 'The Anthem of the Heart' the theme of ROMANCE is a little more prevalent than in AnoHana, where the core theme is FRIENDSHIP. >And yes, both are very feelsy obviously eheh

If you liked Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho add

...then you might like Hunter x Hunter (2011) add

>Both start off with a more light-hearted tone (although HxH is lighter overall) and get darker as the series progress; >Both hit hard in the chemistry between the main cast of characters and how impactful the supporting characters are (the depth of the antagonists is a huge highlight); >Yuu Yuu Hakusho is what made Hunter x Hunter possible, by showing a "prototype" of Nen - spirit/demon energy - and a cast of characters that inspired Togashi to create each and every HxH character (in short, many powers are smiliar). >Worth mentioning that Yuu Yuu is also much more fighting-based - with its legendary Dark Tournament arc - while Hunter x Hunter does present much shorter and fewer fights and focuses more on the relationship of the main characters (especially Gon and Killua).

If you liked Ookami to Koushinryou add

...then you might like Gosick add

-HUGE similarities: >Same type of old-Europe vibe; >Same type of relationship in the main characters couple; >The female leads are sassy and bossy around the male characters to cover their insecurities / flaws. -Slight diferences: >Gosick is darker in its themes while Spice and Wolf is lighter (yet still feelsy); >Spice and Wolf is more mature than Gosick in the way it handles the main relationship and the dialogues, at least considering Gosick's first half.
