Both 243 and Stars Align are relatively serious sports anime. Both series take a deep look into the personal lives of their characters. Both anime have characters who are haunted by their prior mistakes. Both series have relatively fast pacing. Both demonstrate the importance of teamwork. 243 has high school characters, while Stars Align has middle school characters. As a result, the characters in 243 come off as more "mature" and grown up. 243 is about volleyball, while Stars Align is about tennis. Stars Align has the characters split into multiple "pairs", with each pair competing as their own entry. 243 focuses on a single volleyball team of 6 athletes. Stars Align has a greater emphasis on child abuse and domestic violence, while 243 explores the concepts of bullying and anxiety. 243 is more angsty than Stars Align.

If you liked Flip Flappers add

...then you might like Urasekai Picnic add

Both feature two girls traveling to a strange and mysterious alternative world, with one girl being reluctant and nervous, and the other being more eager and energetic. Flip Flappers is a much more colorful and faster-paced anime, while Urasekai Picnic has a more toned-down color palette, and it seems to move at a more leisurely pace. But the similarities in sheer premise are difficult to ignore.

...then you might like Maoujou de Oyasumi add

Both are about super cute royalty girls in settings that should, in theory, be extremely dark, but are actually also very cute. Both lack substance and mostly thrive on sheer cuteness alone. Both have vibrant colors and fluffiness. If you like one, you will surely like the other.

If you liked Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san add

...then you might like Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! add

Both shows feature a titular female character teasing a male lead. Both shows follow a slice-of-life format and overall presentation. Takagi-san is more reserved, slower-paced, and the humor is far more "clever". Uzaki-chan is more "hyper", has much faster pacing, and it is easily the "trashier" of the two series. If you liked either one, you would probably enjoy the other as well.

If you liked Cardcaptor Sakura add

...then you might like Mewkledreamy add

Both follow the magical girl formula to a T. Both have an episodic format that is heavily structured. Both have a similar art-style with bright colors and a generally cheerful appearance. CCS is more than 20 years older. It is accordingly slower paced. Mewkledreamy is more "hyper", and its "cute" factor is way more extreme than CCS.
