If you liked Buzzer Beater add

...then you might like Kaiba add

While BB does not explore everything that may be as most other sci-fi do (e.g. Kaiba, about memories, but then again how tall players are is more relevant than their memories in a game), it is still very much solidified as a background in its multitudes - architectural sci-fi, if such a genre were to exist.

What is apparent from watching BB is that decisions were made to contrast the hues in the anime; protagonist's blue, so his opponent's red, but that doesn't stop there at all as even environments are usually one or another, kind of like how in Tatami Galaxy one hue is more likely to envelop most others, except in BB they're more 'solid', more bright (as even street lights are), and this presumably was made so life could be felt emanating from, mainly Hideyoshi, but also societies at large.

BB tackles a concept that not many other 'casual' anime in this genre can address, "what if whole teams were much taller, stronger?" - since, like in SD, they're set not in a hypothetical near future, but likely in schools where everyone has basically the same strengths and weaknesses, with only a little variability (and even then, with usually at least the same amount of tall people in each team) - but not BB, it isn't even set in any kind of school (which already makes it different from most others in the genre), and instead wonders whether those with talent potential, no matter their background circumstances, could succeed in a competitive environment.

Like its similar predecessor, SD, BB is comedic and has a personality-driven protagonist that, despite the differences in height and blue, instead of red hair, can get into mischief. The comedy springs from there principally, but both have differing approaches to their relationships with other characters (SD has more of an attempt at romance); both, clearly, have a dissimilar number of episodes, and so can express each personality for a longer or shorter time, but BB could have included more of them (besides the central cast), although in the end it is still sort of a microcosm of the author's previous manga.

...then you might like Ping Pong the Animation add

A robot in Tatami Galaxy is symbolic not of heroism as in Masaaki's Ping Pong anime, but a shell that protects an introvert, that defends against the possibility of failure.

If you liked Sengoku Basara Movie: The Last Party add

...then you might like Gakuen Basara add

What SB does is parallel what happened in real life (just as Gakuen uses a school instead of the country). With Gakuen being fully comedic and Sengoku only here and there, one gets the impression that there is still an ideal ratio that derives elements from both.

If you liked Sengoku Basara Ni add

...then you might like InuYasha: Kanketsu-hen add

Sengoku Basara often seems to have invested more in how it looks, rather than substantial character development or a story that, like Inuyasha, forms a whole that connects the animation with what one perceives throughout - certainly, with nearly two hundred episodes the story is more spread out, but fifty is plenty too.

If you liked InuYasha add

...then you might like Sengoku Basara add

Sengoku Basara seems to at times either inflate characters to such unrealistic proportions that the result might not be as expected (which might be due to relying on an arc for episodes, where other anime like Inuyasha tend to go on at length and so it isn't a burst as such).

If you liked Kaiba add

...then you might like Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei add

Kaiba is the science fiction to Tatami Galaxy's romance.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Kaiba add

Kaiba attempts to create an overarching world, analogous to Evangelion, but the slice-of-life elements are mostly what elevates it to the interest of psychology, at a more quintessential level, than the interpersonal.

If you liked Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei add

...then you might like Uchouten Kazoku add

Since it was written by the same author, yet again (as with Tatami Galaxy) the large 'Daimonji' character is written on a mountain in Kyoto, this is regarded as a send-off of spirits in the Gozan no Okuribi festival.
