Synopsis:

Haruo is a short geeky schoolboy with a whiny voice and glasses, and the only one in his family without magic powers. Therefore it should come as no surprise that his life is a constant struggle to prevent being ravished by any nearby female. When a witch under a curse named Mamiya enters the fray, Haruo's precious maidenhood that he holds onto so dearly is placed in grave danger. With the added risqué brought on by the arrival of this new number one contender, Haruo's struggle becomes even more desperate, and his hidden powers begin to awaken.

Maburaho

Maburaho main image

Kazuki Shikimori is a 17-year old junior studying at Aoi Academy, an elite school for the magically gifted. However, unlike enrollment to the school would suggest, his magical prowess is below-average. In fact, he can only use magic eight times in his life, or he will die. But not all is not lost: Kazuki's family tree includes the latent genetic material for magical greatness. After that information leaks out, Kazuki suddenly becomes the most popular male student in the school, and girls from powerful magician families begin chasing him to get his genes.

Both of these stories are cutesy harem comedies centered around a lovable but fairly useless male character who possesses mysterious great powers that have their own profound limitations. They are another set of formulaic stories, but are still fun to watch. Maburaho tends to lean towards the more romantic aspects of the harem stories, and Magikano seems to focus more on the comedic elements, but there's plenty of overlap for both.

Ran

Both Magikano and Maburaho feature a boy that has great magic powers but ignores or cannot use them. A harem soon rises around him and he'll use his magic when he needs to save one of his friends.

Damaged

To me these anime's are spitting images of each other. The both feature a male character that has super poweful magic and can't use it (for different reasons of course). Also, the male character is totally sought after by all the girls in the series, but the male is totally oblivious. Both these animes have a perverted theme to them as well. Basically, if you liked one, you are going to like the other because they are more or less the same anime

Amaenaideyo!!

Alt titles: Ah My Buddha

Amaenaideyo!! main image

Ikko is a Buddhist monk in training who works at his grandmother’s temple with six nuns -- six very attractive nuns. Though lazy, weak and unmotivated to learn the skills of a monk, amazingly strong holy powers sleep inside of Ikko that are triggered only by the awakening of his, shall we say, lust for worldly delights. A vengeful spirit is haunting your home? A flash of pantsu, and Ikko's your man. But therein lies danger; what really is the secret behind his mysterious powers? And how many hits to the head from angry, semi-naked nuns can a man take?

Magikano and Amaenaideyo are not similar just because they have a harem theme; their stories are centered around the powers of a boy - powers that the people around them try either to awaken (using sexuality) or control. They are both funny, sexy, magical and fun to watch.

Both of these series focus on a boy with incredible magical power that has yet to be realised, and the girls trying to awaken it. While Amaenaideyo is way more ecchi, both have a similar style of comedy.

Seto no Hanayome

Alt titles: My Bride is a Mermaid

Seto no Hanayome main image

While visiting his hometown, junior high school student Michishio Nagasumi's life was changed forever when he nearly drowned. Though he was saved by a mermaid named San, there’s a catch -- her family is part of a merfolk mafia, and they abide by a strict rule: If a mermaid is discovered by a man, either he or the mermaid must die. That is, unless the man marries into the family! Faced with such a decision, Nagasumi can only oblige their customs and become a "happy" newlywed. Now, with a new school year around the corner, Nagasumi must find a way to deal with his new bride, keep her true nature a secret, and most importantly, escape inevitable death at the hands of San's over-protective father’s gang!

Both Magikano and Seto are comedy anime and the characters get involved in all sorts of crazy situations. The male leads have to live together with a girl they just met but there's not much romance since both anime focus more on comedy.

bendunnb4

Seto no Hanayome and Magikano share almost exactly the same type of humor...extremely exaggerated situations, women changing from high-pitched voice cuties to deep-voiced angry women in a pinch, characters saying one thing out loud and plotting evilly in asides, etc. If you liked the comedy in Seto no Hanayome you'll definitely like the same in Magikano, and vice versa.

Both series are hysterically funny and crudely perverse which makes them both laugh out loud. One has to do with a magical girl trying to make a human boy fall in love with her, while the other is about an 11 year old teacher. What's not to love?

I feel for the protagonists of these series. While trying to go about their everyday lives, they are constantly being harassed by the females around them. With all kinds of magic and funny situations thrown into the mix, they make for very good comedies!
