If you liked Binbou Shimai Monogatari add

...then you might like Amaama to Inazuma add

Both are incredibly heartwarming shows about family life, often focusing on food and sharing meals together. Both families have lost one parent, and in Binbou Shimai Monogatari the other is missing as well. If you enjoyed one, you would probably enjoy the other. There are times when they may bring tears to your eyes, but they are sure to leave you with a smile.

If you liked Chuu Bra!! add

...then you might like Love Lab add

Both are school comedies about unusual club activities. In Love Lab, the club is focused on learning romance fundamentals, while in Chuu Bra!!, the club is about appreciating underwear. In both, one of the characters has a father figure who designs underwear. Surprisingly, Chuu Bra!! actually has a larger focus on romance than Love Lab, while Love Lab has more comedy.

If you liked Chuu Bra!! add

...then you might like Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to The Animation add

Both shows are comedies with a large focus on underwear. One character in each show is obsessed with underwear and it is also significant to the plot.

If you liked Aoi Hana add

...then you might like Amanchu! add

The atmosphere and characters are very similar, and they are both directed by Kenichi Kasai. Hikari and Futaba strongly resemble Akira and Fumi respectively in both appearance and personality. Both shows have a school setting, deal with a club, and have strong yuri vibes. A difference is that Amanchu! has much more comedy.

If you liked Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka? add

...then you might like New Game! add

Cute girls in a work environment. Both are slice-of-life comedies that begin with the MC first starting her job. There is an age difference between the two, as the characters in New Game! are actually adults, but the MC looks like she could fit right in with the girls in GochiUsa. The shows focus on character interactions, cuteness, and comedy. Both are great choices if you're in the mood for something lighthearted.

If you liked Shirobako add

...then you might like New Game! add

Both are slice-of-life comedies about people who work at a production company. In Shirobako, this is an anime production company, while in New Game!, they focus on game development. Both start when the MC is new to the job and explore the interactions between the people in the company as she gets used to her position. Shirobako more seriously focuses on anime development, while New Game! takes a more laid-back approach, devoting much of the screen time to cute moments between the girls. If you are looking for a more easy-going version of Shirobako with increased levels of cuteness, New Game! may be right for you.

If you liked Koufuku Graffiti add

...then you might like Amaama to Inazuma add

Both are about bringing people closer through cooking and eating tasty meals. They are cute, heartwarming, slice-of-life comedies. Koufuku Graffiti is more about friendship, while Amaama to Inazuma focuses on family bonds.

If you liked Barakamon add

...then you might like Amaama to Inazuma add

Both are cute, slice-of-life comedies about the interactions between a man and younger girls. It is very heartwarming to watch them take care of each other and all benefit from their familial relationship. A difference is that in Amaama to Inazuma, the man is actually the father of one of the girls, whereas in Barakamon, the man is not related to them. Both are good at evoking emotions and are sure to leave you with a smile on your face. I would highly recommend both of them.

If you liked Grenadier: Hohoemi no Senshi add

...then you might like Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World add

Both focus on a female traveler who is skilled with a gun but would rather not use it. Kino no Tabi is more philosophical and episodic, while Grenadier is ecchi action/adventure with an overarching plotline. Both have some comedic moments.

If you liked Minami-ke add

...then you might like Softenni add

Both are school comedies that primarily feature female characters but also include a couple important male characters. Every time I saw Kotone in Softenni, I thought of Kana from Minami-ke because they have a very similar character design and are also both very energetic. Minami-ke focuses more on daily life, while Softenni is more concerned with tennis. Softenni has much more fanservice, but it is often used for comedic purposes.

If you liked Hinata no Aoshigure add

...then you might like Mu Di add

Both are short, cute movies that blur the line between reality and imagination and involve a young boy who rides an unusual animal.

If you liked Binzume Yousei add

...then you might like Yoshinaga-sanchi no Gargoyle add

Both are comedies that are a bit unusual. Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle is mostly fast-paced, wacky comedy and action, while Binzume Yousei is comedy based mostly on imagination and misunderstandings. I connected the two because they both include an episode in which the main characters become very close to a flower. The moments with the flower were some of the most touching scenes in both shows.

If you liked Fuujin Monogatari add

...then you might like Sakura add

Both explore the relationship between the characters and the weather (particularly wind in the case of Fuujin Monogatari).

If you liked Mitsudomoe add

...then you might like Jinsei add

Both are school comedies featuring primarily perverted humor. The main characters consist of a group of girls and one guy. However, in Mitsudomoe there is a large age gap between the girls and the guy (he's their teacher), whereas in Jinsei the characters are all the same age. Both shows also involve a superhero or group of superheroes who are important to some of the characters.

If you liked Softenni add

...then you might like Bakuon!! add

Both are comedies focusing on school club activities. The clubs are made up exclusively of female members (although the adviser for the soft tennis club in Softenni is a man). There is a lot of fanservice in both that is mostly used for humor, though there is actual nudity in Softenni as it is an ecchi show. If you liked one, you would probably enjoy the other.

If you liked Puchi Pri*Yucie add

...then you might like Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka? add

Both are cute shows in which the main characters (all girls) start as rivals but become friends. The girls often work together at their jobs, and the characters' fathers are also important to the shows. They both have comedy, although GochiUsa has much more. Instead Puchi Puri Yuushi has romance and a plot.

If you liked Teekyuu add

...then you might like Bakuon!! add

Both are comedies about girls in a school club. They are very lighthearted and have plenty of fanservice which is often used for comedic effect. A difference is that in Bakuon!! the characters actually spend a lot of time participating in their club activity (riding motorcycles), while in Teekyuu the characters mostly make random jokes and only occasionally play tennis.

If you liked Mokke add

...then you might like Flying Witch add

Both are supernatural slice-of-lifes set in the country. They are slow-paced and have some comedy every now and then. Personally I find Flying Witch more engaging, and I like the characters more. Mokke has darker elements to it, and the tone is less happy and carefree. If you're looking for an anime similar to Flying Witch but more serious, Mokke may interest you.

If you liked Itazura na Kiss add

...then you might like Furiko add

The romance development is very similar, and most of the issues in the relationship between the main characters are caused by the man.

If you liked A-Channel add

...then you might like Teekyuu add

The characters are similar, and there are yuri themes. Both shows are comedies about 4 girls at school, but Teekyuu is faster-paced and has wackier humor.

If you liked Aria the Origination add

...then you might like Working!!! add

Both are the third and final season of their series. While the two previous seasons for both had little plot progression, these third seasons finally further the plot and reach a satisfactory ending (although Working!!!'s real ending is actually a 49 minute special). Content-wise, both are cute, slice-of-life shows about people working at their jobs. There is some romance in both, but it is much more central to the plot of Working!!! Working!!! also has more comedy. On the other hand, Aria is more relaxed and peaceful. Both are heartwarming.

If you liked Yoshinaga-sanchi no Gargoyle add

...then you might like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood add

Both involve alchemy and include a main character who is a sentient metal/rock object (Al as the suit of armor and Gargoyle as a dog statue with wings). They both have action and comedy with some darker themes. There are characters in both from different parts of the world who at first oppose the main characters but later help them. Fullmetal Alchemist has more of a plot, while Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle is generally more easy-going.

If you liked Puchi Pri*Yucie add

...then you might like Aria the Animation add

Both Aria and Puchi Puri Yuushi are cute and heartwarming shows about friendship. Both focus on a group of girls at a similar age who explore their world and make precious memories. The girls in Puchi Puri Yuushi are actually older than those in Aria, but they haven't aged since they were ten and so look younger. Each girl has a non-human companion: a cat in Aria and a steward in Puchi Puri Yuushi. There is romance in both shows, but this is more prominent in Puchi Puri Yuushi. The romance aspects are cute and do not create much drama. There is little drama overall in both shows, though there is a bit more in Puchi Puri Yuushi. Both shows also have supernatural elements and comedy. One big difference between the two is that Puchi Puri Yuushi has a plot, while Aria does not. Both are definitely worth watching and are sure to make you smile.

If you liked Yoshinaga-sanchi no Gargoyle add

...then you might like Ikoku Meiro no Croisée The Animation add

Both shows include a young girl under the care of a man who is not her father. There is also a shopping district in both that is very important to the characters and is often the setting for the show. In addition there is a department store that acts as a rival to the shopping district. There are some romance elements in both, but they don't really go anywhere in either. Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle has more humor and action, but Ikoku Meiro no Croisée is cuter. Both are heartwarming.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru add

Both are sci-fi shows in which a whiny MC is forced to fight aliens against his/her will in order to save the world. Both are sort of mecha but not exactly. There is romance in both, depicting not only the positive aspects but also the negative. Neon Genesis Evangelion excels at exploring character depth, while Figure 17 focuses on character growth. Figure 17 has a much more predominant slice of life component, while Neon Genesis Evangelion is much more psychological. Both deal with characters who feel isolated, which is a central theme in both shows.

If you liked Yoshinaga-sanchi no Gargoyle add

...then you might like Tamako Market add

Both shows are comedies in which a non-human character becomes like a member of the family (a bird in Tamako Market and the gargoyle in Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle). A shopping district and the people who live there are very important to the characters in both. There are touching moments and some romance, though not as much as you may want. Major differences between the two are that Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle has much more action and focuses more on supernatural elements.

If you liked Yoshinaga-sanchi no Gargoyle add

...then you might like Seto no Hanayome add

Both shows are fast-paced, goofy comedies with a generous dose of action. There is romance in both, though much more in Seto no Hanayome as the name would suggest (My Bride is a Mermaid). I found the characters more endearing in Yoshinaga-san'chi no Gargoyle, but I think Seto no Hanayome was funnier. If you enjoyed one, you would probably like the other as well.

If you liked Bakemonogatari add

...then you might like Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works add

While the stories and animation styles are quite different, the characters are strikingly similar. -Araragi and Shirou: both guys trying to "save" everyone, have a harem, try to solve all problems by getting themselves beaten up, have healing abilities -Senjougahara and Rin: both tsunderes and the girlfriend of the MC -Oshino and Kiritsugu: father figures who tell the MC that he can't save everyone -Hachikuji and Illyasviel: both non-human little girls who latch on to the MC -Sengoku and Sakura: both tormented with serpent-like creatures (snakes or worms), childhood friend of the MC -Hanekawa and Taiga: both associated with cats and may gain cat-like features when stressed or angry -Kanbaru and Saber: both somewhat manly, good at physical exertion and fighting

If you liked Minami-ke add

...then you might like Kuragehime add

Both are slice-of-life comedies focusing mainly on the lives of those living in one particular household. Both have a predominantly female cast though with a few important male characters. Also there is a male character in both shows who must cross-dress in order to be allowed into the household where the women live. A difference between them would be that Kuragehime actually has a plot and romantic progression, while Minami-ke focuses more on day-to-day activities and never advances the romance aspects.

If you liked Sketchbook: Full Color's add

...then you might like Nichijou add

Sketchbook is basically a slower-paced Nichijou. Both are set mostly at a school, are full of jokes, and are sure to make you smile. They both also have talking cats.
