If you liked Boku wa Oniichan. add

...then you might like Docchi ni Suru? add

Very similar. I actually thought Docchini Suru was the same story as Boku wa Onicchan (I Am Big Brother) until the second chapter. Both have a ordinary guy who's friends with two popular-hot guys. Both friends (or brothers in Boku wa Oniichan's case) love and lust after the MC in a very over-the-top complex way. Both flirt ridiculously with the MC daily to the point where the MC thinks it's normal behaviour. Both stories conclude with the two popular guys confessing the MC and him having to choose. The comedy, romance and general scenes are very similar. Trust me, if you liked one then you will liked the other...except I felt that Docchi ni Suru didn't have a good ending and had less drama apposed to Boku wa Oniichan. In my opinion, Boku wa Onicchan (I Am Big Brother) is the best of the two.

If you liked Aldnoah.Zero add

...then you might like Kidou Senshi Gundam: Tekketsu no Orphans add

They both have giant robots that are special or unique. They both have a very solemn, monotone, cold main character who are able to drive the robots better than anyone else. Both have a princess from Mars who comes to Earth for political reasons. Both have people who are trying to kill or capture the princess for political reasons. There's war related history and events. People die. People fight. Both have many characters from all different backgrounds that some how add to the story. Seriously, there are both so similar I'm surprised no one had already suggested them.

If you liked Honto Yajuu add

...then you might like Kiss Ariki. add

The ONLY similarities are around the heirs of the yakuza groups. Gotouda Aki, from Like A Beast, and Tohru, from Started With A Kiss, are both gorgeous feminine looking men that all the groups members pine after. They are the groups own idols and everyone loves and worships them. Everything else between the two mangas are completely different.

If you liked Sekai no Hate de Aimashou add

...then you might like Boku Girl add

How could they not be similar?! Both are stories about a boy who is turned into a girl by some fantasy element: in "Boku Girl", it's from a bored God. In "Sekainohate de Aimashou", it's from a Alien Prince. Both involve a lot of panty shots and ecchi scenes with the now girls learning how to dress, act, bath and be women. Most of the panels are questionable actions of either falling on top of people, accidental gropings, gusts of wind flashing underwear, clothing being ripped, bathhouse scenes, etc, all fuel for the nose-bleeds. While "Sekainohate de Aimashou" has more of a story, as such, "Boku Girl" is a little bit more straight forward and has less drama and action. Also in "Sekainohate de Aimashou", everyone knows he's was changed to a girl. Where in "Boku Girl", they are trying to keep it a secret. Both have very similar art: clean lines, shading and panels, fresh and modern designs, cute plump-looking girls with big eyes and slender features. Although, the men in "Boku Girl" are more masculine compared to the men in "Sekainohate de Aimashou". These are so similar that if you like one, you will definitely like the other. Guaranteed.

If you liked Ringo ni Hachimitsu add

...then you might like Ousama no Bed add

Both have sketchy, loose art that is very appealing. Both are reasonably light romances that have some emotional or deep issues beneath the surface, nothing too dramatic, but it does steer away from the sugar-sweet romance. Both also have odd stories around aloof or different characters. Both also have simple plots and events, however, stories that you wouldn't normally read about or have read before. I recommend for light romance and simple events that leave you feeling warm-hearted even though there were some emotional issues addressed.

If you liked Ousama no Bed add

...then you might like Kanemochi-kun to Binbou-kun add

The only similarities I can say is the over all feelings revolving around the bitter-sweet romance. Also, the random plot events: the way the characters find each other or fall in love; subtle romance found by odd ways. Both leave you with a smile, even though some events were a little emotional.

If you liked Yokubou no Shizuku add

...then you might like Sweet Pool add

The gore and horror themes are very similar, more so in Drops of Desire (Yokubou no Shizuku). Both are about humans who are either hosts for demons, or are demons/monsters themselves. Drops of Desire is way more smutty than Sweet Pool, with sex at nearly every turn. It also has tentacle and werewolf kinks. Both also have rape scenes or forced sex. The art is similar. Very detailed with tall lanky characters, dark shades and tones, explicit sex details (sometimes), and the gore. Sweet Pool is a longer more drawn out story that's based around a visual novel, where Drops of Desire is a stand alone volume that is designed to deliver smut.

If you liked Kibun wa Joujou! add

...then you might like Heart no Kakurega add

Both are based around a bunch of people all living together as they act like a little family. The chapters are broken up into small arcs about the different characters, who live in the house/units, and their relationships. "Kibun wa Joujou!" is smuttier and straight to the point, where as "Heart no Kakurega" takes it's time and is more enduring.

If you liked Sayonara, Itoshi no My Friend add

...then you might like Ookami wa Mahou wo add

The second arc of "Wolf Magic" (Ookami wa Mahou wo) reminds me of "Sayonara, Itoshi no My Friend". There are no similarities with the characters personalities, story settings or uke/semes, but I found that they are similar because of the plot structure. The noisy/popular guy pushes his friendship onto the quiet/aloof guy and eventually falls in love with him but can't break through his naive shell to get him to understand his feelings. In both, the spacey/quiet characters slowly figure out that they like the noisy guy after they stop spending time with them, due to the noisy guy cutting of their friendship because of his suspected one-sided feelings getting hurt. "Wolf Magic" has darker emotional drama compared to "Sayonara, Itoshi no My Friend", where the noisy/popular guy, Nagase, has some emotional history around his sexually where in "Sayonara, Itoshi no My Friend", neither persons were gay to begin with. The art is also clean, fresh and modern in both mangas and very appealing.

If you liked Mankai Darling add

...then you might like Ookami wa Mahou wo add

The first arc of "Wolf Magic" (ookamu wa Mahou wa) called "The Water of Love For the Withered Flower" is about a guy who has a stern face and works in a florist. He has a tough attitude and appearance that scares anyone who doesn't know him. He is also an aloof character, similar to Haruhiko from "Markai Darling", however, Haruhiko is more of a pervert than a distant character like Hanasaki. Both stories are based around people who work in a florist. Both also having pairings between a older manager and the younger assistant/customer/friend. The differences are that in Markai Darling, Haruhiko knows that he wants Takashi and forces his love onto him where in "Wolf Magic" it's the other way around; Hata (the customer) forces his feelings onto Hanasaki (the florist manager). Both are nice stories with some mild drama, comedy and romance. Both also have nice fresh art that is appealing.

If you liked Innocent Venus add

...then you might like Kure-nai add

The similarities are the relationships between the young girl and the older male(s): the guys have to protect the girl, because she is important, and while they spend time together a bond grows. Because of the age gap the men brush off the girl's love for admiration but the young girls both insist they love them. All other aspects of the shows are unrelated.

If you liked Mister Convenience add

...then you might like Second Honey add

The only similarities between Second Honey and Mister Convenience is the art. Both are realistic portraits towards men and body structures, and even though the art was very clean with solid shading and lines, it stills portray a level of sketchy-sloppiness with each scene. I also found the character designs were very similar, with long haired characters who are lanky but manly. Really, I would compare any of Shiwo and Aniya Yuiji's works to each other.

If you liked Eien no Shichigatsu add

...then you might like Tane wo Maku Hito add

I feel that both ukes are the same: both have deep emotional issues that stop them from falling in love and they both hide their true feelings by putting on a false front. Both seme's end up falling for the ukes and get dragged along, not releasing the depths of their problems, until they are pushed to their limits and run away. To Sow a Seed (Tane wo Maku Hito) is a little more serious and has no love-scenes, where Eternal July is quiet smutty and more easy on the feels. The art is also similar between the two, where the ukes are gorgeous people who flaunt their looks and both semes are normal white collar workers.

If you liked Second Honey add

...then you might like Ouji no Hakoniwa add

Ouji no Hakoniwa (Miniature Garden) and the first arc of Second Honey are both stories involve rich kids who's are losers as young adults and have the secretary/butler always cleaning up after them. In reality, the kids are just lonely and to hide their emotions they become useless people who act cheeky, are blunt, sleep around and are unmotivated at achieving. Both the secretary and the butler are the quiet stereotypical type who do anything their masters say, except something that will go against their well-being. Although, Miniature Garden is a case of Stockholm Symdrome, where the kid is held against his will, where in Second Honey the secretary follows the kid's father's orders to push him to finish collage. All other arcs are not related or similar.

If you liked Chuchun ga Chun add

...then you might like Mienai Hoshi add

Both are slow paced romances, like really slow. Both are two volumes long where nothing really gets going until the second volume. Even though they are very slow paced, they are both still very intriguing. This plays more on the 'moe' scenes and cute romance, more than smutty sex. If you're after a heart warming BL either of these will suit. Both are also based around high school boys who play baseball; mainly targeting around the sport and the character's interactions, future responsibilities and life goals.

If you liked Koi no Iro add

...then you might like Sekai wa Kimi de Mawatteru add

Both are a collection of cute oneshots, that make you feel good/happy. Both have stories based around high school students.

If you liked Koi no Iro add

...then you might like Omae de Nakya Dame Mitai add

Both are a collection of cute oneshots, that make you feel good/happy. Both have stories based around high school students.

If you liked Borderline add

...then you might like Dekiai Rule add

The arc "First Love", from Borderline, is similar to Dekiai Rule. In both stories, there's a student x teacher pairing where the student has a one-sided love for the teacher and forces himself onto them, thinking this is what love is, only to realise that love it not just about sex, and with time and patience comes acceptance and eventually love. In both, the student tries many times to convince the teacher to sleep with them and is rejected. Also, in both mangas, the student's are both "loose" and eventually become celibate to prove to the teacher that they do, in fact, love them.

If you liked Cherry add

...then you might like Koi to Karada wa Senaka kara add

Both uke's have Astraphobia: a fear of thunder. Both are based around friendship turning to love. However, in "Koi to Karada..." the uke is already gay and uses his friend as support after his break-ups, where in "Cherry" neither persons are gay and they get together after the seme divorces his wife.

If you liked Garden add

...then you might like Equus add

This has very similar fantasy-mixed-with-dark-undertone elements. The feeling I got from reading both was the same; sad stories with a twisted-happy-ending(s). The art is also very similar for both. Both are mature stories with depressing realism, even though they are heavily based around fantasy.

If you liked Bukiyou na Silent add

...then you might like Rutta to Kodama add

Both are about the quiet/shy uke going out with the outgoing/popular seme. Both are very heartwarming romances that just make you feel happy. Nothing dramatic happens, noone gets pinned down and abused, it's just about two guys who fall in love and deal with little life situations as they attend school. Highly recommend both.

If you liked Koisuru Boukun add

...then you might like Takaramono wa Hako no Naka add

The main similarities are the plot settings (research students/colleagues), the drama, the comedy and the art. Although, Koisuru Boukun focuses more on the couple getting together, where in TwHnN the story starts with the couple already in a relationship.

If you liked Ousama★★Game add

...then you might like Yell! add

Both have very similar art; where the ukes looks very girly with big glossy eyes and feminine-like mannerisms. The scenes are very similar as well; having smutty-filled sex mixed with heart-warming moments. Yell! is school themed though, as Ousama Game is based around pirates and kings/queens.

If you liked Sensei Ano ne. add

...then you might like "Boku wa Senpai ni Josou wo Shiirareteimasu." add

Both are about boys dressing as high school girls; traps and gender bender themes. Similar art and ecchi panty shots. Similar comedy and characters. Only difference is that in Sensei Alone the boys WANT to cross-dress, where in BwSnJwS he is forced to cross-dress.

If you liked Junjou Romantica add

...then you might like Kuroneko wa Shippo de Amaeru add

Both involve a author seme who is socially a-head in class and status, although hides it and avoids parties/events. Both involve a student uke who is inexperienced with romance and love. Both have similar drama scenarios, including acceptance, confusion, miscommunication and third-party conflicts. The only differences are: JR has more comedy and is a longer/on-going series vs KwSdA which is a one volume series and concentrates more on "fluff and heart-warming scenes.

If you liked Number add

...then you might like Torikago Syndrome add

The plots are different. Number has elements of fantasy/supernatural, where TS is more about high school students playing mind-games, however, I feel that the themes, art and scenes are similar. Both have dark undertones within the plot; suffering with one's self and facing their fears. Another similarity is the art; amazing clean lines, crisp shading, attractive character designs and panel layouts. They also have similar genres, that being "Psychological" and "bromance" (or shounen-ai), which stand out the most. I get the same "feeling" whilst reading both and instantly thought of Number after reading TS.

If you liked Mister Convenience add

...then you might like Smoker add

The art is the main similarity between the two: realistic with a sketchy-look. The plot is some-what similar where they are slice-of-life scenarios between boring yet likable characters. I felt that both are aimed at a more mature audience that still have heart-warming scenes, but more than fluff or shoujo-based themes.

If you liked Kyou, Hana no Gotoshi add

...then you might like Beast & Feast add

Both are by the same author; very similar art and designs, more detail with less chibis and comical characters. Both are romances around crime/police/yakuza. Both have very nice "together" scenes and love declarations between the characters with less sex-filled nonsense.

If you liked Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt add

...then you might like Kill la Kill add

Crazy animations with over the top movements and fighting. Strong female lead(s) who seem casual until they get into a fight. Same style of comedy and perverted jokes. Fast paced plot and scenes delivering action. Both are lots of fun and a joy to view.

If you liked Sono Koi ni wa Wake ga Aru add

...then you might like Starlike Words add

Both are about the noisy guy falling for the quiet/social outcast. In Starlike Words the school slut falls for an artist who can only express himself through his paintings. While in Sono Koi it's about a guy who attracts everyone because of his looks but is a tyrant who gets tamed by a biology student who treats him like a cat haha Both have good comedy, cute romance and fluffy sex scenes.
