25 [Similar Anime] Like Sweetness & Lightning

The similarities between Usagi Drop and Sweetness and Lighnting are apparent from the get-go. Average-looking man have a pretty blonde daughter around pre-school age that he does not particularly know how to care for. The difference is that in Usagi Drop, Daichi adopts his grandfather's daughter, but in Sweetness and Lightning, the father is recently widowed.

An adult male dealing with cute kindergarten kid. No ecchi included, minimum romance, more light comedy revolving around daily lives. Both children featured also speaks about the same way. Although Barakamon is richer in environment, Amaama shows us a similar story with big city as background.

both are slice of life anime that have a focus on parenting.
moe for adults
will make you think at times think "ah, maybe i should be a parent". in real life, don't fall for it, actual parenting is much harder than what these anime depict - they only depict the upsides of parenting and rarely any of the downsides.

Both anime features food in a deliciously realistic way, though at different angles.

In both series, we watch the story of father and daughter whose mothers are dead. Again, in both series, the father attaches great importance to his daughter.

Food brings people together.

Slice of life genre with a lot of loveable characters! Although, I do think that Flying Witch is still slightly superior to Amaama to Inazuma, if you enjoy the slice of life genre, you are for sure to enjoy both!

Both anime are about a dad taking care of their daughter. Both are somewhat food-centric and have a lighthearted and heartwarming style.

Anime about cooking for daily meals with slice of life background. Featuring male protagonist who is the main cook with female secondary protagonist.

Similarites: Both are slice of life anime related to taking care of kids. Differences: Amaama to Inazuma focuses more on cooking while Gakuen Babysitters is a school anime with a little romance.

both are heartwarming slice of life stories with the main character going over to a girl's house to have dinner; in amaama to inazuma the main character comes with his daughter to his student's house, while in 3 gates no lion the main character comes alone to the 3 sisters that live in the neighbourhood

I got a similar feeling while watching Koi wa Ameagari no You ni to when I watched Amaama to Inazuma. Both have a sort of student/sensei relationship and end up spending a large amount of time together and the show lets the viewer watch their relationship grow throughout the series. Koi wa Ameagari our main character actually has developed feelings for her manager, whereas in Amaama it's a platonic relationship. Each shows can be both lighthearted but also very serious at times. If you enjoyed watching a high school aged girl spend time with an older adult male and the activities that surround them I would recommend the other show as well.

The characters like to spend great moments eating delicious dishes.
In addition we can learn a lot about cooking (Japanese cooking especially)
The atmosphere is the same: relaxing and welcoming.

Same feeling of just straight warm and fuzzy feeling. Cute characters and same fatherly figure. Bright and warm colours and deep story to top it off.

in "Amaama to inazuma" mian characters enjoys how to make delicious food, in "Ben-to" they're having fun fighting for delicious meal. so add it on to watch list now! enjoy!

both revolve around a male looking after a child while also having difficulty's.

If amaama to inazama is very relaxing and cute to watch, you should try nourine. Nourine is very hilarious and funny. the similarities on these two anime is, their everyday foods are include in the story line. :D

Amaama to Inazuma crries the same "overcoming great sadness through a supportive environment" kind of feeling. It's not as deep sometimes, but it's a nice anime that warms up your heart.

Both are about lighthearted moments in life. The series is mostly at home of the protagonists. Amaama is about cooking with people, while Osake is about drinking. "Plot" is different, but both are lighthearted and the animation style and colors show this.

Very different but very similar. Both shows have a general light heartedness but we still see characters troubles.

Both Amaama to Inazuma and Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-San are slice of life animes focused on food. Not to much to take, just easy going animes! Itadakimasu!

Without spoiling much, this resembles the last part of Clannad:AS, with cooking as a delicious add-on.

-Both of these feature adorable tiny children
-The main child is very lively and affectionate
-Both feature children growing up in unusual households

Both have cutesy main characters. I was instantly reminded of Tsumugi when I started Alice. The dramatic elements are way stronger in Alice but both have very tender moments. Sweetness and Lightning has a lighter mood and is strictly more "slice of life" about food and Tsumugi being raised by her single dad. Sana in Alice is somewhat raised by old man Zouroku so they are similar in that regard as well. Both are very sweet overall and get high ratings from me!

They are heart touching stories about the relationship between father and daughter.
