I feel like this is mostly similar because of it's teaching in science. They both have action scenes that can tell you about the science behind it. Cells at Work! is part of the body system that keeps you alive/takes care of your body while Dr. Stone is essentially rebuilding life at a rapid pace, so it shows you a lot of "basic" science skills.

Well they both deal with science and its pretty funny. Good show to learn with.And they both have some action in the show. Plus a pretty good OP 

odetoguns odetoguns says...

the two of them are about science. They teach you things that you might not know about how the world works, while being funny and light-hearted.

Littlesilverwolf Littlesilverwolf says...

They are anime that give education purpose. Cells on biology and stone on chemistry and physics. They introduces science facts through animation.

CallMeIcebrick CallMeIcebrick says...

Well, cute boys and girls talking about science in one, cute boys and girls cells and cellettes talking about health in the other one. Although Cells at Work is less story and more akin to Magic School Bus.

If you liked Cells At Work, then you'll like Dr. Stone as they both use real science and world principles.

Anthropomorphised cells/countries do adorable shit/casually kill each other in a funny and educational way. Both are actually pretty accurate to their respective fields (from what I know) and you certainly feel like you learnt something after watching them, as well as both being damn entertaining. 

AltoKellyn AltoKellyn says...

Both animes anthropomorphize non-human characters into funny and understandable moments of history or medicial learning. It's a great way to understand complex systems with relatable human characters.

Claptrap Claptrap says...

Both shows about anthromorphic characters to help educate you. However, their similarities do not end there. The dynamic between the two leads is also really similar: the clumsy kind of air-headed MC with a hair antenna - North Italy/Red Blood Cell - and the stern, stoic, more work-oriented Germany/White Blood Cell.

educational shows that teach facts from their respective fields (history and biology) presented in a fun form.

Funny, interesting, and full of useful information, this series answers questions such as, “Why can't unicorns exist?”, “What makes an animal taste delicious?”, “What's the most powerful creature in the ocean?”, and, “Bird versus snake: who would win?” You won't believe it's a manga series when you read up on the featured animals in the included encyclopedia entries. Heaven's Design Team will make your next trip to the zoo or aquarium 100 times more fun!

The same thing just with zoology instead of biology. Also a comedy. And a manga. God how many words do I need.

Littlesilverwolf Littlesilverwolf says...

Both are anime that can learn biology in a fun and easy way. As the name suggested, cells focus on human body while heaven focus on animal. It present bio knowledge in a perfect way. I promised not to sleep if my bio class is like this  XD

Teoca317 Teoca317 says...

Both are educational anime. One teaches viewers about the cells in the human body while the other is about animals. Both anime are wholesome and relaxing. I think that if you like one, you would like to watch the other.

How does your body work? Is it a wonderland, or is it full of cells that do their best to keep you alive, despite your best efforts? According to both anime, it's the latter case. Informative, but mayhaps not a replacement for your biology textbook, they dramatise the inner workings of human anatomy. Often light-hearted, but not without conflict, fans of either might as well check out the other.

Starletka Starletka says...

To put it bluntly, Cells is a cuter, newer version of Once upon a Time. It copies all ideas from the original series and even the soundtrack feels familiar at times.

The Dragon Dentist (2017)

As Nonoko and Bell go through a series of fierce battles, they eventually learn to accept their fate.

Interested in learning more about how to care for a body inside and out? Then this is a great place to look. 

Both animes focus on the importance of health. Protecting a body from internal and external stress. When decay or sickness make a scene the MCs are there to quickly aid and repair the damage. 

Training can be lethal. 

Work is never done.

 Everyday is a fight.

Cells is more comedic.

Luckily for the canine, he’s adopted from the pet store by none other than Shinobu - real name Kirihime - herself, and what’s more, she can read his mind!

They both are very funny and easy to fly through the episodes. They're also family friendly, for the most part, if the child is above the age of 13 that is, haha. Overall they're both just really great watches, especially with friends.

Both of these animes are very similar. I can’t believe that no one has made this connection. They have the same level of silly humor mixed with action. 

Both include young endearing characters that have specialty skills. 

Both have about 3 characters that bounce off of one another.

Both are great.

Children fear him, and the medical establishment despises him. He lives on the edge of town, speaking to only a few people, and he comes and goes as he wishes. When a serious attempt is made on Black Jack's life, destroying his cliff-top residence in the process, Black Jack swings into action to find the culprit. His only clue is a faded sepia photograph, showing his mentor and benefactor, Dr. Honma, alongside other mystery figures. Traveling around the world and facing great dangers, Black Jack seeks to find out the truth behind the organization which wants him dead!
