- Teenagers
- Similar art style around the face

Most importantly, the MC has very similar backstories: popular smart kid who fell behind somehow but is back because of the sudden appearance/reappearance of a magic manic pixie girl. MC's more chill in FranXX though.
AnoHana is easier to take seriously because there aren't overt in-your-face sexual overtones every shot, but the voice acting is smoother in FranXX.
- Characters from DARLING in the FRANXX seem to be inspired from AnoHana, both personality-wise and design-wise
- Saori Hayami and Haruka Tomatsu voiced main characters in both shows
- One of the arcs in DARLING in the FRANXX seems like the storyline of AnoHana
- Original work from the same studio (A-1 Pictures)
- Both shows are about relationships among friends/people around them
