Both are really well done slice of life series that focus on students attending college focusing on artistic subjects (fine arts for Honey and Clover and classical music for Nodame Cantabile). The artistic style in both series is similar as well with well rounded humor to balance things out. I also can't help but see similarities between Morita and Nodame. I keep thinking that Nodame is the female version of Morita. :D

Peacefull atmosphere, same kind of graphic and almost the same humorous taste.
Both are produced by the same studio. Both are hilarious, dramatic, and share a unique cast of characters with a particular appeal that captivates the audience.
The other explanations are spot on, similar feel, similar brand of humour, if you enjoyed one, you'll more than likely enjoy the other.
Nodame Cantabile is a great anime, especially if your fond of music. many people actually judge this anime directly because of its art, but it really has a great story. On the other hand Honey and Clover is the kind of anime wherein you could really appreciate the story as a whole especially the season II, despite the similarities of the art it really has a great story. I really recommend you watching it because I know you will really appreciate it. ^_^

Both produced by J.C Staff, with similar art styles and featuring amazing music. Although the plots are entirely different, both animes will definitely appeal to you if you're looking for good slice of life anime that is both thought provoking and infinitely stirring while maintaining a light-hearted mood.

Two slice of life/comedy shows that focu on college students, rather than highschool. They have a similar feel since one takes place in an art college and another in a music school.
The animation and the whole general mood of trying to succeed in an artistic field are both extremely similar to each other.
Both are about college life and arts (music and art). Love, life and friendship. Wonderful feel good animes. Not to mention both have comedic moments too.
both anime has hilarious comedy going around college/academy students. honey and clover may be a bit more romantic, but nodame has it too...oh and they have good soundtracks.
Nodame Cantabile:music and Honey and Clover:arts.
Both story focus on the life of college students. They both have an amazing story and character development. They both have an amazing romance comedy story.
and most of all, they are both great anime..^_^

If you like Nodame Cantabile, I suggest you watch Honey and Clover. Both deals on being a college student and developing one's skills.
Both are slice of life/comedy animes that have to do with college students in a school of fine arts (one is an art college and the other a music college). The characters try to overcome hardships while working to reach there dreams.

Both series has a touch of romance and comedy completed by serious tones and implications about life. Definitely perfect if you're also looking for another coming-of-age/pre-adulting anime series!

Both are by J.C Staff and have a similar look and feel. Both have a cast and story of/about young adult students and professors in an art college (music vs. fine arts). They feature an ensemble with different personalities and romances. While both have dramatic moments, the overall athmosphere is relaxed, comedic and slice-of-lifey.
Two college dramas that deal with characters coming into their own and expressing themselves through their art or music. Honey and Clover is carried by an ensemble cast, which allows for more love triangles and complicated relationships while Nodame Cantabile is a more comedic and light-hearted version of that.
In the two anime we have the same feeling of witnessing a group of people growing up, going straight into the adult age the problems we can get such as love and relationships issues, and for both of these anime it's around music that they bring these topics.
With settings like that, it's not surprising to see that both of them aim for the same audience, it's especially because the way of developing their characters and plot are similar for these anime
