Toshokan Sensou

Both series feature an endearing, enthusiastic airhead of a protagonist making her debut in her dream job with the support of a very colorful (and equally endearing) cast of strong characters. While in one case the goal is to protect books (and therefore culture and knowledge) and in the other it is the environment that is at stake, Kasahara (Toshokan Sensou) and Tanabe (PlanetES) share a same ideal and a similar approach in how to defend it. They also encounter the same hardships and embark on similar journeys, which makes for great character development and emotional involvement in both series. Oh, and last but not least – the dynamics between Doujou and Kasahara are highly reminiscent of the sparks-ridden chemistry shared by Hachimaki and Tanabe in PlanetES! :)
