If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Futari Solo Camp add

It should be extremely obvious, but both anime are exclusively about camping, and while one is CGDCT and the other more serious and adult-oriented, they both follow very similar patterns: gourmet and slice-of-life focus, showcasing different camping sites and styles, explaining concepts regarding camping, giving tips and showing different camping equipment. You'll likely like both if you're an outdoors person or just like lowkey relaxing anime with little plot and little tension.

If you liked Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu add

...then you might like Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi add

Ever wondered what is it like to be depressed and suicidal and then meet a literal yokai who maay or may not want to kill you? Probably not, but these anime happen to provide exactly this. They're great if you like to feel miserable!

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Shuumatsu Touring add

What if cute girls traveled around Japan, meeting its landmarks and both urban and natural beauties, but one was in the modern world and the other in a post-apocalyptic near-future? These two anime somewhat mirror each other but find themselves in two completely different worlds, where the end goal of each set of characters is practically the same: discovering the world.

If you liked Zatsu Tabi: That's Journey add

...then you might like Shuumatsu Touring add

Have you ever dreamed of just traveling around Japan for no particular reason? Even in the apocalypse? Then dream no more! Since you will likely never get to do this, you can at least *feel* like you're doing it by watching these two anime about some cute girls deciding to randomly visit different landmarks of Japan because they happen to be able to, even once the world has ended!

If you liked Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

...then you might like Shuumatsu Touring add

Two anime about two girls at the tail end of the world, with only a motorcycle and the ruins of a once prosperous civilization. For those who like solemn melancholy and a type of existentialist dread portrayed by cute anime girls, these two will absolutely be up your alley.

If you liked Boku no Tsuma wa Kanjou ga Nai add

...then you might like Alma-chan wa Kazoku ni Naritai add

A human-like girl robot with no expressions which becomes part of a family. Who wouldn't want this? These two anime are essentially that very concept played slightly differently, but they feel extremely similar in tone and plot development. They even have the same tropes, such as the male protagonist's sister showing up constantly to annoy him, or the robot main character having a more expressive counterpart.

If you liked Another add

...then you might like Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu add

A small countryside village where a curse is taking place, causing people to die due to a supernatural entity in the form of a person. These two anime share the exact same creepy atmosphere, dark color palettes, heavy shading, abrupt camera angles, and the same vibe of utter uneasiness caused by the claustrophobia of the rural setting that floods you whenever you're watching it.

If you liked Clannad add

...then you might like Anne Shirley add

Coming-of-age stories about the happy and the sad things. These shows both feature a cute, innocent, imaginative girl, and themes about grief, love, growth through suffering, and mono no aware; the beauty of impermanence. They don't shy away from the worst things in life, but use them as plot devices to showcase the growth of the characters. They both share this cumulative, slow-paced build up of emotions in everyday life, which make them beautiful for anyone who likes stories that touch the heart.

If you liked Hanasaku Iroha add

...then you might like Anne Shirley add

Two girls who find themselves at the crossroads of life, trying to grow into adulthood while facing hardships and realizing the impermanence of their own dreams and desires, and the joy of growth. These are cute and poetic coming-of-age stories about resilience, told through the lens of the everyday life of their characters. Their emotional weight grows procedurally, and comes in the form of the mere beauty of the atmospheres and the relationship one builds with the characters, rather than through straight catharsis from particular events.

If you liked Violet Evergarden add

...then you might like Anne Shirley add

Two girls from broken backgrounds, marked by loss and grief, who try to connect emotionally and grow out of their past. These anime share a similar epistolary, reflective storytelling, with motifs of literature and impermanence, and focusing on the social connection and personal realizations of the protagonists.

If you liked Clannad: After Story add

...then you might like Anne Shirley add

Coming-of-age stories about the happy and the sad things. These shows both feature a cute, innocent, imaginative girl, and themes about grief, love, growth through suffering, and mono no aware; the beauty of impermanence. They don't shy away from the worst things in life, but use them as plot devices to showcase the growth of the characters. They both share this cumulative, slow-paced build up of emotions in everyday life, which make them beautiful for anyone who likes stories that touch the heart.

If you liked Unnamed Memory add

...then you might like Silent Witch: Chinmoku no Majo no Kakushigoto add

A truly sexy prince and a witch with absurd skills who lives in isolation. If you're the medieval-fantasy-who-likes-nobility-drama-and-lots-of-filler kind of person, these two anime are absolutely for you.

If you liked Bocchi the Rock! add

...then you might like Silent Witch: Chinmoku no Majo no Kakushigoto add

A girl with extreme social anxiety who is absurdly good at something specific is forced to face her greatest fear and socialize with other people. The only difference is that one's a master of magic, and the other one's a master of the guitar. Other than that, they're spiritually the same, and loving one means loving the other. So watch both anime.

If you liked Sousou no Frieren add

...then you might like Silent Witch: Chinmoku no Majo no Kakushigoto add

Let's be honest, we all love to see an extremely OP character who makes everything look easy and has null socialization skills, and even more so if the animation is beautiful.

If you liked Nichijou add

...then you might like City The Animation add

Quite literally the same anime. Same author, same animation, same character design, same absurd humor. If you've watched one, you have to necessarily watch the other.

If you liked Azumanga Daiou The Animation add

...then you might like City The Animation add

Funny cute girls doing absurd nonsense + strange animals which can talk. Azumanga Daiou is the forefather of all absurd humor anime, so City carries its DNA. Watching one means you got to watch the other, for the experience is essentially the same.

If you liked Nichijou add

...then you might like Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara add

The suddenness of the humor and the absurd irrationality involved in it in these two anime are certainly worthy of study by various sciences.

If you liked Poputepipikku add

...then you might like Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara add

If you like an anime filled with nonsense and constant references to pop culture for no real reason, here you go. Have fun. Have a stroke too!

If you liked Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan add

...then you might like Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara add

What if you had a bunch of cute and not-so-cute characters doing disgusting things all the time and referencing pop culture constantly? Yeah, these two anime provide exactly that... to an extreme.

If you liked Fumikiri Jikan add

...then you might like Food Court de, Mata Ashita. add

Random conversations that go nowhere for the sake of short-term entertainment. Conversations about love, food, relationships, family, social media, videogames and whatever other thing you may imagine. These anime exist because they can, and you'll like them both if you watch things just because you can.

If you liked Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

...then you might like Food Court de, Mata Ashita. add

Two girls with oddly similar personalities and appearances—albeit inverted—talk endlessly about the most menial or the most profound of topics. These anime are low-key, easy to digest, and heavily dialogue-based. There are just a few additional characters, but otherwise, it circles around the two protagonists only. Absolute bangers.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like Food Court de, Mata Ashita. add

Have you ever wanted to listen to cute girls spend over 20 minutes debating about food? Me neither, that'd be an oddly specific wish. But, once I experienced it, I knew I wanted more. These two anime provide exactly this: pop culture, conversations about food, and the daily interactions of friends without any greater reason. The peak of low-key anime.

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

...then you might like Takopii no Genzai add

Aliens, loops, despair, suicide, death, more despair, and a little bit more of despair for good measure. These are basically mirrored anime with different thematics, but the same general idea: life is pain, you will die, and you may only be saved by magic.

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Hibi wa Sugiredo Meshi Umashi add

Do you like food? And traveling? And cute drawn girls? Great, you are probably too poor to afford the first two, and have an unhealthy obsession with the latter, but that's completely fine, because these two anime appeal exactly to the likes of you: food, the natural and urban beauties of Japan, and a bunch of girls, each with their own personality, doing things that heal your rotten soul.

If you liked Bocchi the Rock! add

...then you might like Hibi wa Sugiredo Meshi Umashi add

What if Bocchi the Rock! but with food? Hibi wa Sugerido blah blah provides exactly this: a group of girls with strikingly similar personalities (and some of the same voice actors) doing cute slice-of-life things while engaging in their hobby along the way. I mean, damn, you literally have an unreasonably socially anxious girl in both anime; what are you waiting for to watch them???

If you liked Yuru Camp△ add

...then you might like Mono add

Did you spend the entirety of your teenage years as a reclusive antisocial loser locked up in your bedroom all day long? Well, weep no more, for these two very similar anime will make you feel that slight amount of happiness you never got and never will get to experience because from here on out your life is about enslaving at work until you die. Have fun visiting animated tourist attractions of Japan with bidimensional teenage girls!

If you liked Mono add

...then you might like Hibi wa Sugiredo Meshi Umashi add

Cute girls with similar character archetypes doing cute things. On top of this, throw in some gourmet and travel, and you've got the perfect combination to waste your time with your eyes fixed on a screen while being influenced into wanting to experience a foreign land and culture when you should probably be studying or working instead.

If you liked Zatsu Tabi: That's Journey add

...then you might like Mono add

Have you ever dreamt of traveling throughout Japan, but realized that: 1) you're poor, and 2) you will never live in Japan? If so, worry not, for Zatsu Tabi and mono will allow you to live an experience which your wallet will certainly never allow you to! Just sit down and watch a group of cute girls happily travel throughout various places in Japan, while you try hard to cope with the fact that the closest you'll ever get to that is through a screen!

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

...then you might like Gakkougurashi! add

What's better than cute high school anime girls? Well, first, not going to jail, but second, when these anime girls are put in some of the most traumatizing scenarios you can possibly imagine, and you enjoy it because you're sick in the head. Thankfully this is fictional media, otherwise you and I would be going to jail.

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

...then you might like Made in Abyss add

Grab a bunch of kids, put them in the most despairing situations ever imaginable, and enjoy yourself watching them suffer while you sit in your chair eating your third bag of chips, not for a second asking yourself "is this something reasonable people enjoy?"; answer is no, but since you're likely like me, as in, not reasonable, you will absolutely love watching these slow-paced plot unfold into increasingly macabre scenarios.
