Sora no Manimani
Synopsis:
Years ago, Saku moved away from his hometown, leaving behind his friend and tormentor Mihoshi. As a child, Mihoshi constantly forced the bookish and shy Saku to play and look at the stars; and now, as Saku moves back home to attend high school, he prays for a quiet school life free from her grasp. Unfortunately, Saku’s desires are quickly shattered as Mihoshi catches sight of him and convinces him to join the school’s astronomy club. Alongside Mihoshi, the other club members and Hime - another girl from Saku’s past who’s determined to win him over - Saku continues his dreadfully unordinary high school life with a grimace and positive attitude!

add recBoth series revolve on clubs duing very spicific things. Both are slice of life and settle a lot on comedy and discovering who you are. and both have simmiler charecter modols
Both anime are basically the same thing. Except in K-On the focus is music and in Sora no Manimani it is looking at the stars. a group of children get together and do either musical or astrology activities together while attending regular classes as well as taking it easy the slice of life way. If you liked one i'm sure you'll like the other.
Both Sora no Manimani and K-On! are anime about a high-school club with people trying to get the most out of their hobby. They both have a very lighthearted feel to them and avoid the grim or heavy themes. If you enjoyed one of these, and are looking for a similar, lighthearted show about a group of high school students with their club, give the other a try!
Both animes revolve around a bunch of students and their club, just that in K-ON! it's the Music Club and in Sora no Manimani it's the Astronomy Club. I found that both had similar plots and themes, plus both have a good dose of comedy along with that light hearted feel to them that makes them great to watch at the end of the day. In the end, if you liked one, I'd check out the other, especially if you're interested in either Music or Astronomy, even though both don't delve too deep into either of them.
OK! If you like Sora no Manimani, you will also like K-On!! (and vice versa) Why?? Because these two anime('s) has similarities: the main character joins/creates a club (Sora no Manimani - Astronomy Club; K-On! - light music club); Yui and Mihoshi are very similar! their attitudes, oh, I can't think of anymore. So, watch K-On!/Sora no Manimani if you liked this show.
There both are comedy involving school clubs and the characters are enjoying there hobbies and interests. they both involve similar light hearted themes

add recSora no Manimani features a girl driven by her love of stars. Her personality over powers and wins against her childhood frind who loves books. She wants to have an astronomy club but is lacking in members. But she manages to pull it off.
Like Mihoshi from Sora no Manimani, Haruhi also has an overpowering personality and a love for something. She likes weird things like time travelers, aliens. etc. and started a club for that, but once again lacking in members.
They both have their weird moments and are very funny.
I think
Both these shows are centered around a very loud and obnoxious girl and her high school club. Their friends try to keep them in check while participating in club activities including trips and fairs.
The first thing that popped into my mind was Haruhi while watching Mihoshi advertise the Astronomy Club. Both series feature school clubs with aggresive female leads that are over the top enthusiastic about their club. Their plots are similiar, at least when it comes to the club, Haruhi goes much deeper when it comes to story.
Both also feature a bored guy as a main character that's dragged around catering to the female's every whim and that's where quite a lot of the comedy is taken from, which is pretty good in both of them. If you enjoyed one, I'd suggest you try watching the other, but don't expect a deep story in Sora no Manimani or a light hearted feel in Haruhi.
Ouran High School Host Club
- TV (26 eps)
- 2006
- Spring 2006
Ouran High is a school for the extremely wealthy or, in Haruhi's case, the extremely talented. But no amount of talent will help when Haruhi accidentally drops an eight million yen vase in a music room. The vase was the property of Ouran High School Host Club, a group of attractive young men who, for a fee, provide their time and affections for their lovesick clientele: the female students. Fascinated by this strange new specimen, a poor and clumsy commoner, they force Haruhi to work for them until the debt is repaid; but they get a lot more than they bargained for...

add recBoth of these shows focus on students who are very passionate about their school clubs. They take place in a school environment, both are comedy, and both have a small amount of romance between members.
While the subjects of the jokes in Ouran and Sora no Manimani were different, the visual humor was identical. Chibi-fied characters and exaggerated facial expressions (while included in most comedy anime series) were strikingly similar.
Also, they both revolve around the day-to-day lives of a high school club, and include light romance, comedy, and some parodies (especially Ouran).

add recBoth anime take a boring yet interesting thing and make a story out of it. With Love Hina it's about studing to get into a university where in Sora no Manimani it takes a look at a school club that focuses on stars. Both anime have wacky interesting characters that make you giggle with the things that they do. Romance is present in both but love Hina focuses a little more on it than Sora no Manimani. Both lead females have a fire to them that makes you want them to succeed in anything they do. Check out one if you liked the other.

add recWhile both plots are completely different this is more a gut recommendation for the feeling you will get while watching either of these anime. They take simple things and turn them into bonding experiences among the cast members. In Kita e ~Diamond Dust Drops~ it tells episodic tales of a legend about Diamond Dust where in Sora no Manimani it takes the stars and constellations club at school. All characters show great interest in either of the tales and leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside as the viewer. Check out one if you liked the other
