The protags and/or MCs both start off as weak, undetermined, and lacking individuals but learn through experience and friendship what it means to become strong and better person. Both anime make you feel like accomplishing more with your life and reflect on your past and predict the outlook of your future. Also both anime will make you laugh your ass off and cry.

Both Planetes and Hanasaku Iroha deal almost primarily with work ethics, teamwork, balancing work and love life, sacrifices and ultimately pursing your dream. If you enjoy motivational anime that make you reflect on your life, I recommend highly.

WA2 and Kids on the Slope share many similarities. Both are romance drama anime centered around a complex love triangle between friendship and lovers and are both heavily themed around music. If you enjoyed one of these, you HAVE to watch the other you won't regret it.

While both are very different anime, they contain very similar settings. The anime are both slice-of-life with a romance theme set in the 20th century. If you like artsy anime with some good romance, I recommend this.

Haha, you're thinking how in the world is this similar to kimi ni todoke? Both MC's initially had no friends and were very antisocial, but for different reasons. The majority of the show is subjectively in the protag's perspective where a lot of narrating is done explicitly to the audience. The MC's grow in character in every episode while overcoming obstacles given by their new found relationships. Both in school setting and have couple of festivals taking place in the anime. Both animes are all about character development.

Both are slice of life, though The Girl Who Leapt Thru Time has much more fiction, they have similarities and I found I enjoyed them both. (Whisper of the Heart is so much more amazing in every way though).

This series resets the values of the UC timeline. Newtypes was just an ephemeral construct caused by war between human's who have opposing viewpoints on the evolution of mankind. Defining evolution only holds back the advancement of mankind, this Gundam was mind-blowingly deep. Super underrated
