Synopsis:

Join Haruhi, Yuki, Kyon, Mikuru, Itsuki, and the rest of the gang in their all-new adventures. From creepy dreams, dodge ball games, quiz shows, and cosplay contests, the excitement never stops! Can Kyon, the only normal student of the SOS Brigade, make sense of all these odd occurrences, attempt to avoid them, and hopefully survive them with his sanity intact? With the adventure and mystery-seeking Haruhi in his way, along with aliens, espers, and time travelers, he certainly has his doubts!

Lucky Star

Lucky Star main image

In present day Japan, the life of a school girl is never dull. The easily-bored Konata never finds time to study because of her otaku habits, which frustrates hard-working Kagami to no end. On the other hand, laid-back Tsukasa always manages to go with the flow, while Miyuki is concerned with keeping her status as resident know-it-all. Join these four girls as they muse and meander their way through everyday events such as eating chocolate cones, doing homework, gaming, and trips to the beach galore.

"Hey you got lucky star in my Haruhi."

Haruhi-chan is like A mix between the Haruhi we all know and love, and the complete silly, randomness of Lucky Star. If you enjoyed either you should deffinetly pick up the other. Both poke fun at the orginal and are just plain fun to watch.

Although, I do reccomend watching the Orginal Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi before watching either Lucky star or Haruhi-chan.

Uruno, a failure of a wolf, is currently traveling to find himself a new place to call home; but upon chancing across a rabbit, he attacks it only to realize that this particular rabbit is stronger than any predator! Soon afterwards he discovers that this entire forest he has come across is home to similar 'useless animals' that are atypical of their species. He decides to stick around when he meets his love interest in the form of a clumsy cheetah, and with his new friends, he meets the rest of the animals in the forest, causing much hijinx and fun in the process!

Silly, sensless and short, three great things about both of these shows.

Although they are just a fun bit of fluff, Haruhi-chan and Useless Animals are a great way to waste a few minutes a day and not have to keep up with a complex storyline. I think fans of one show will love the frivolity of the other :)

What do you do when the Emperor of Japan has been replaced with... an alien from Planet Octopus?! From intense motorcycle races to crazy machine inventors from Holland, from sea voyages to battles about emo trading cards, there's never a dull moment in the life of the bizarre. Join an eclectic cast as they are visited by a Ramen Fairy, are reincarnated over and over, solve cases like detective pros, and overall have a laughably ridiculous time!

Gag Manga Biyori and The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya bascially have the same sense of humour. The reactions are over the top, the situations and events are preposterous at best, and certain characters' energetic attempts to point out failures to abide by logic or the laws of physics are ultimately in vain.

For those who like their humour coming in thick and fast, whilst not stopping to make so much as a lick of sense, both of these shows will no doubt delight. They wear the tag of "random" as if it were a medal.

Zettai Karen Children

Zettai Karen Children main image

In the future, select humans have begun to evolve and acquire special ESP powers – powers that the rest of the populace fear and detest. While some ESPers are harmless, others desire to use their powers for their own personal gain. In order to suppress this threat, identify new ESPers and protect those with powers from the public, the B.A.B.E.L. organization is founded. At its helm are three ten-year-old ESPers: Kaoru, Aoi and Shiho. Together, they will put a stop to crime and attempt to gain the trust of the public; but can their guardian, Kouichi Minamoto, manage to help the girls mature enough so their selfish actions will stop hurting the world around them?

crazyness, fantasy and an unfortunate, yet otherwise able hero are what these animes are about.

I would say that ZKC is not as crazy as the absurdity haruhi-chan, but it is more crazy than haruhi. But really, both shows are about crazyness caused by one (or three) girls, and the guy who has to put up with them. Poor Minamoto and kyon

Both Melancholy of Haruhi-chan and Ayumayu Theater deserve two tags above anything else: Random and Parody. They are both shows about practically nothing, with chibified characters and parodies from certain series. They are both quick, lighthearted and fun watches.
