-sports
-personal problems to deal with
-even the art style seems quite the same
at first i wanted to recommend haikyuu, but it doesn't feel like haikyuu, it's not that much focused on sports for now, more around the Characters
Drama-oriented sports anime with seinen vibes that focus less on actual sport and more on the psychological problems of the characters. Both also have a similar watercolor visual style.
Both shows are short and are technically sports anime but feel less like sports shows and more like dramas. They both have a fairly small cast of characters and each character feels like they could be a real person. Both shows also tackle real, personal issues and can get heavy at times.
Both anime are sports anime with a huge focus on the characters and character drama/character relationships
Both story-lines have a dark undertone to it.
The animation style is also very similar.

Both series have relatively fast pacing.

Just from the first episode, I feel 2.43 is more like Hoshiai no Sora than Haikyuu
Slice of life and drama, maybe some feels along the way

By the time I'm writing this 2.43 has 2 episodes. So far those two give me similar vibes because 2.43 seems to focus more on the characters personal lives than the sport itself, just like HnS did.
