Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2009)
Alt titles: Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (2009)
Synopsis:
The eccentric Suzumiya Haruhi wants nothing more than to meet aliens, time travelers and espers… but she’ll have to settle for the everyday Kyon instead! Along with the mysterious Itsuki and the vacant Mikuru, the duo forms the SOS Brigade – a club whose mission is to discover the mysteries of the world. Armed with a razor sharp wit and a skill for manipulation, Haruhi will stop at nothing to have fun at all costs, even at the expense of Mikuru’s dignity!

Lucky Star
- TV (24 eps)
- 2007
- Spring 2007
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.

3 people think you'd like this because...
add recI'd recommend this not just because it's made by the same company but because both animes are "slices of life" and both feature small hints of other animes, such as where in Lucky Star where the main character Konata dresses up as Haruhi Suzumiya and performs, along with the other characters who also dress up as characters from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.
Either way, both are excellent animes and I'd definitely recommend to watch either one after the other.
in short if you like the one you'll like the other because there both in a high school setting and if you watched haruhi you'll love all the refrences in lucky star to haruhi.
Two animes created by one studio and two main characters - Konata and Haruhi - have the same seiyuu.
Also they're both are comedies (and kinda funny) and about high school students. And I have to admit, that they connect with each other - Konata is a big fan of Haruhi. Plus they have similar humor.
So It's the reasons why you would like both 'Lucky Star' and 'Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya'
Naruto
Naruto Uzumaki is a young ninja who bears a great power hidden inside him, a power that has isolated him from the rest of his village. As such, his only dream is to become the Hokage - the most powerful ninja, and leader of the village; but first he needs to graduate! With his inability to perform even the most basic ninja techniques, it seems that all Naruto has going for him is his determination to succeed no matter what. Teamed up with the genius Sasuke, book-smart Sakura, and their team leader Kakashi, Naruto embarks on his quest to become the Hokage. But with outside forces posing a threat to the entire Hidden Leaf village, Naruto discovers that he must become much stronger if he ever wants to realize his dream and protect the friendships he's forged.

add recEnjoy re-used plots and endless episodes without progression?
Then you will love both Haruhi and Naruto! Leaving aside the major differences in style and quality of animation, if you are braindead enough to enjoy Kyo-Ani's endless trolling then I'm sure you will be similarly thrilled by Naruto which is yet to change after countless episodes.
I recommend both series to masochists with time to waste, like me.

add recBoth of these anime sequels involve people who are lost in time, and forced to relive the same days over while trying to find a way to move forward.
While Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai features Rika and Hanyuu working together to solve the problem as they keep it a secret from the rest of Hinamizawa town, the SOS Brigade of Haruhi Suzumiya must only make sure that it is kept an absolute secret from Haruhi as they restore time in their world.
The two plots are very similar, although there isn't any horror in Haruhi. The fate of the world relies on the SOS Brigade while the fate of Hinamizawa rests on Rika. If you've enjoyed one of these anime, you could probably enjoy the other as well. Whichever anime you decide to watch, make sure you finish the first series before starting this sequel.
