Please Teacher - Recommendations

Aten says...

Alien girlfriend, fan service, pretty much boring storyline both ways :/ Even written by the same guy, the plots seem to nearly overlap.

palaeologus says...

The same producers and staff, some of the same voice talent, a similar magical girl theme = one of the closest "kinship" relationships among anime.

kincokinco says...

Both have the same director, and the first episode has the same feeling and scenarios as the first episode of Please Teacher. So if you love'd Please Teacher you are going to love Ano Natsu de Matteru or vice versa :]

Turak says...

Almost the same shows.  Similar characters, plot, ect.  Even the character designs are similar.  If you enjoyed one, you'll enjoy the other, even with them being so very similar.

Avrgeboy123 says...

they have a similar storyline--alien from space falls in love with boy from earth. Visual similarities are astonishing however this doesn't mean it is a repeat of onegai sensei. There are subtle differences that make it worth watching

Doomoo says...

Think of Ano Natus De Matteru as the director's second shot at Please Teacher. this time with a better story, better animation, better soundtrack and better everything else. It's still not top notch but it's certainly worth the watch. It might as well be named Please Teacher 2.0

If you liked Please Teacher check this out for a very very similar anime of higher quality and entertainment.

VirginRapist says...

FFS, even one of the character is the same, 'forever 17' remenber, it's the president which is shown in please twins!! also, it's in summer as well as next to a lake.

sylvesterj96 says...

Everything is almost the same such as plot and setting

the only main difference is the main characters' public relationship.

lugiamew007 says...

Please Teacher was the first series that came to my mind when I watched Ano Natsu de Matteru. Almost everything was similar, including the characters.

abunai says...

In terms of style and storytelling, as well as much of the basic plot, Ano Natsu is a close cousin of the Onegai series (both Teacher and Twins). Many of the characters bear a strong resemblance, in terms of design and personality, and the conflicts that carry the story are much the same. It's safe to say that, if you enjoyed the Onegai series, you will enjoy Ano Natsu, and vice versa.

JAhU says...

Want to watch another series with an alien girlfriend? Why not try Ano Natsu de Matteru.

It was made by the same guy as Onegai Teacher (and thus shares many similarities with it), it's generally better executed, has better visuals, less dull characters and less fanservice. On the other hand there is plenty of drama and the story had a few weaker parts (mostly in the last few episodes).

Rfsancho says...

They are essentially one and the same show. Natsu Matteru is just a bit remodeled, that's all.

ofall says...

When I started watching Ano Natsu de Matteru, I started feeling nostalgic immediately and the feeling continued thoughout. The main differenc between these two is that in Please Teacher, he knew and in Ano Natsu he dosn't. The characters are almost exactly the same, and many of the plot twists are similar.

sridanu says...

Alien Girl falling in love with a Earth boy, love triangles and a very common storyline bind these two animes together

Paladinexcorsist says...

Great anime about a boy who falls in love with his teacher after accedintly marrying her. The main character is the type of guy who goes in a stand still moment where he is paralyzed for a long time, he has already been in one for 4 years. Will he go in a stand still once agian?

Jayage says...

Ano Natsu de Matteru and Please Teacher are pretty much the same show the plot, characters and even style feels the sames. Both are about a Red heading ailen girl that wears glasses falling in love with a human male that wears glasses. Both animes also have alot of love triangles and were written by the same person. The only difference between the two is in Ano Natsu de Matteru the main girl is a student and in Please Teacher the main girl is a teacher.

TuanSinh says...

this anime really is like a duplicate of Onegai teacher since the setting is in summer, the girl which is the alien is older and has a weird pet to control or teleport her to wherever and whenever. it is also set in summer for both animes and the main characters have similar features such as wearing glasses and they both are small.

Jeff00 says...

I love this anime . X x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x xx x. XX x x. XX. X XX. Xnxd d d d. D d d d d d d d d è donneschi jdosjhcbcnxndjdjshxjcjdkdjxjcjcjjdxhd

Firenixzus says...

You can say that Please Teacher and Waiting in the Summer have alot in common and are close to being an sequal from Please Teacher to Waiting in the Summer. But try an watch both and you will from the start to the end see that it's the same plot and romance there are going for with a few tweek here and there.

Luffy411 says...

The plots as well as some charcters are very similar and both shows give off the same feeling. A nice alien/human romance that affects and changes the realationships of the people around them. I really enjoyed both!

HKBattosai says...

If you liked Please Teacher or Waiting in the Summer, then you'd also like the other because both are romance anime featuring slightly older alien female main characters (MC) who happen to fall for the younger male MC. Plus, both male MC's suffer from an unusual illness that can only be helped by the alien technology. If you end watching both then it is easy to see the similarities almost instantly.

LoneRaven says...

Contains the same romantic atmosphere as Onegai Teacher however, the way the romance develops is somewhat more conceivable. It has a unique twist and also leaves you with the warm and fuzzy feeling after watching the anime.

FINSahaqiel says...

Very similar idea and plot structure. This is like Onegai Teacher with aliens replaced with goddesses.

extent says...

A similar theme of a guy getting in a relationship with some one out of this world and people getting in thie way

NekoRocket says...

Ah! Megami-sama and Onegai Teacher are both outlandish romantic anime series about a typical loser character getting together with a truly wonderful woman. A bit contrived, but a staple in anime, sure to please hopeless romantics and fanboys alike.

CheesyP18 says...

I pretty much agree with everyone else that has made a recommendation. Start with shy student. Enter supernatural hot female, take your pick, alien or goddess. BAM! You got some chemistry going. Each series has its own nice romantic touch to it but in its basic elements they are the same. These series complement each other well.

Stmated says...

Young boy meets a mysterious woman, and their relationship starts of with a bang almost in the beginning. Both boys in the series are shy to start with, but learns to handle the "relationship" after a while.

sublime says...

Another romance story fighting against all the odds. A shy bloke finds himself unexpectedly living with a woman, throw in the magical/out of this world element and you have the premise for a good comedy/romance.

kamirura says...

Mystic girls appearing from nowhere and young cute guys totally obsessed with them? then this is what you are looking for. Onegai teatcher is abit more ecchi than Ah! my goddess but still really alike

matuser says...

Please Teacher and Ah My Goddess are very similar anime in the way they build feelings and relationships between the two main characters, who ended up together totally unplanned. Like in Please Teacher!, troubles are afoot and many awkward scenes await them in AMG, but a happy ending prevails over any obstacle.

jholovacs says...

Both of these stories are about a poor and useless sap who finds himself guiltlessly in a long-term, intimate one-on-one relationship with someone way out of his league.

They are different in the fact that Please Teacher has a progressive story line, where Ah! My Goddess tends to be more episodic with smaller plot arcs.

palaeologus says...

Many parallels between the two love stories that other posters have noted (nonhuman but beautiful female makes contract with ordinary male human, followed by visits from nonhuman older relative and nonhuman bratty imouto-chan and by an eventual separation crisis), but two things rarely mentioned are (1) the female love interest in both is voiced (in Japanese) by Inoue Kikuko, and (2) Hiroaki Gouda was heavily involved in the production of both (he directed OMG and was the character designer for Please Teacher). Sure, Please Teacher is a little more H, but the look and feel of the two series are just so similar -- partially because some of the same people made them happen.

dstarfire says...

In both these series a college student

finds their life suddenly changed for the better after a chance encounter with a beautiful woman who later becomes their love interest. Also, the main characters are very similar

Larkawolfgirl says...

Both of these shows involve a normal guy suddenly having a strange girl trown into their life. The girls are also both stuck with them and closely. Both have great comedy about their strungle to get closer as couples. Also in both they must keep the girl's idetity a secreat. Both are full of laughs, sweet moments, and cuteness.

neutrino says...

Sudden-girlfriend-appearance, misunderstandings forcing the main characters to live together, and otherworldly beings showing up on the protagonist's doorstep, what could be more similar?!

hamletsmage says...

Young man sees a woman literally drop out of the sky, then through strange circumstances, ends up living with her. The relationships are a tad more mature than others you'll find in the romance tag. Both anime also include a fairly interesting side cast, so look for some side romances or other tomfoolery. 

infinight says...

Very different but same type of genre. Much more humor, not very serious at all.

LoneRaven says...

A harem type of anime, however it does contains the themes, love, comedy, drama and some action...

kamirura says...

If you enjoyed watching Onegai Teatcher you will problary like Love Hina too. Abit more ecchi than Onegai teatcher but really funny. The guy ends up with alot of girls that make him get in trouble.

sublime says...

More of the comedy/romance genre that always seems to be a great hit in anime. Again another "guy in unusual circumstances plot" in both Onegai Teacher and Love Hina. Angtsy romance situations mean you'll never get bored with either series.

NekoRocket says...

Cute geeky guy with glasses finds the love of his life in a very peculiar manner. A very typical anime plot device finds a perfect home in both Love Hina and Onegai Teacher. Both of these series feature in-depth love stories with a plethora of obstacles. You'll laugh, you'll cry... :)

kamenoko says...

Though it is a harem comedy, Love Hina shares a lot of the plot elements of Onegai Teacher. From the misunderstandings, the jealous younger sister, and the non descript male lead, one lends itself well to the other.

AnimeUnrivaled says...

Both Love Hina and Please Teacher are quirky romances with a healthy dose of ecchi humor. The lead males both prove to be the same kind of nerdy/geeky guys who gets into an interesting relationship with a beautiful girl and seem to run into nothing but problems constantly. Both series have you laughing most of the time. The rest of the time you'll be frustrated or just plain sad because of the lead's dillemma. These are recommended for one another not simly because they're similar, but because any fan of one is likely to be very entertained by the other.

AnimeScout00x says...

Well, you started with one fun girl in Onegai Teacher, well now there is an apartment full of them!  You are going to love this one because it's mostly comedic and has lots of romantic scenes between the two main characters in most episodes.  By the way, it does have some ECHII included too!

sheiann says...

I'm kind of in the process of watching Love Hina, but the characters remind me of the characters in Please Teacher. Both have good storylines to me.

freakzilla says...

Love Hina and Please Teacher should appeal to the same people. Both are lighthearted series where comedy is the main drive, have a small romance story to get things going, and have a bit of ecchi (as is usual in this genre). Things are about to liven up, as our main characters are in for a lot of hazardous situations!

daniel44044 says...

Both Love Hina and Please Teacher have a great mix of romance, love and humor that will please everyone. In addition, both have a good and romantic story that has a little bit of humor to keep you hooked until the end.

Obxist says...

Both Onegai Teacher and Love Hina is a love story. Both of them got the drama and both of them got comedy + a little ecchi. Even though theres some different kind of story love in here but i believe these two is the most similar amongst anime. Dont forget to watch the other if you liked one.

cartmanbeck says...

These two anime are all about the perverted young man who finds himself in a situation where several beautiful, busty women want to be with him. Both involve some measure of public disgust to the situation the young man is in (in Onegai Teacher he's married to his high school teacher, and in Love Hina he's the manager of an all-girl's dorm). Finally, they're both full of pantyshots, uncomfortable situations for the main character, and breasts breasts breasts. If you like one, you'll invariably like the other.

Pain says...

If you like the shojo anime so both of them are your best choice. Please Teacher is a romantic story between a student and his teacher. Ther's only a detail, his teacher is an alien!!! Love Hina, otherwise, is the story of Keitaro Urashima, a student that wants to go to study at the university of Tokyo because of a promise to an other girl when he was 4. So his grandmother leaves him the job of guardian of the female dormitory Hina for mantaining his studies. What will happen in a place where are living 6 girls and one man??

moric says...

As Onegai Teacher has some sad parts so does AYA. Both have a good mixture of the ups and downs in a relationship, so if you liked one you'd probably like the other.

CheesyP18 says...

Once again you've got similarities galore. Even though Ai Yori Aoshi is a harem anime while Onegai Teacher is not so much of a harem anime, you can get the same feel. This is again a meet between almost lonely and shy guys plus supernatural females (Aoi is supernatural, just watch the series, if I could do half as many chores...).

sublime says...

Both being romantic/comedies, with the usual "guy in unusual circumstances plot", makes both these series easily watchable and definately likeable.

ralphp2 says...

Onegai Teacher and Ai Yori Aoshi are both love stories. AYA also has a harem comedy component. Both have beautiful music, wonderful characters, and a lot of character developement. OT has more basic fanservice, and has boosted sales of Pocky throughout the world! (Not really ... )

AnimeScout00x says...

Ai Yori Aoshi has more romantic scenes than Onegai Teacher, but its comedy is just as funny.  It's really good, and if you liked it you'll like Onegai Teacher too.

angelsreviews says...

Both stories have two characters that are made for each other and then a bunch of characters that pretty much try to pull each other away. The extra characters are also not aloud to know that the two are together making it full of awkward moments.

hamletsmage says...

Both of these include a boy that has to hide his relationship because of various reasons. While he would rather spend time with her alone, there is at least one other girl vying for his attentions. Both anime take a more mature look at romance, but do include a decent amount of silliness from time-to-time. 

kamirura says...

You gotta love Green Green TV if you liked Onegai Teacher. It got the same ecchiness and alot of funny moments when the guys at Green Green's school get their hands on the girls. Just like Onegai Teacher got the innocent kid, Green Green does too he is overwelmed by girls and everyone thinks he's a perve but he just can't help it. Be sure to check out this wonderful comedy ^^

Tomte says...

Romance, ECHHI and relations, this is what Green Green and Onegai Teatcher is about. One more dramatic than the other, the other more hilarious than the other. Two great series in other words.

Ripzter says...

Both seires have a romance based story and are evolving around school life. You'll love them both.

kristianmorris says...

Both of these series come off as light hearted in the beginning but as the stories draw to a conclusion the drama sets in which is what leaves an impression.

ejs123 says...

Green Green and Onegai Teacher (Please Teacher) have very similar themes. The undercurrents of romance are constant, and the perverted humor is never far off. Be warned though: some of the episodes have some nudity, and the Green Green OVA is borderline hentai, so it's not for the young.

freakzilla says...

Both Onegai Teacher and Green Green contain their share of ecchi, romance and comedy. Despite that not being an uncommon mix, it is somewhat uncommon for this genre to have a romance story that manages to pull you in.

wolfangel87 says...

Unbelievable innocence surrounded by ecchi is seen throughout both Green Green and Please Teacher both by the teachers and main characters. There is a hilarious awkwardness as the characters interact with one another and there are similar themes with an undercurrent of love.

infinight says...

Sci fi themes, harem romance, much less humor.

kamenoko says...

Chobits, like Onegai Teacher, is a light and somewhat humorous romance title that brings us our favorite anime character types: the non-descript male lead, and the unworldly gorgeous female.

Otaku108 says...

Both Please Teacher and Chobits involve women of extra-ordinary origin who fall in love with a young man. They are funny, uplifting, and wonderfully drawn and directed. You'll fall in love while laughing through it all.

MeloColi says...

Onegai Teacher and Chobits are about love and romance, are ecchi, and are also a bit serious. Chobits is about a robot girl and Onegai Teacher is about a teacher from space, so they're kind of alike. =P

chii says...

Both anime are romance stories about a normal boy falling in love with a not so normal girl. Chobits is a machine made to help humans with their day to day life while Please Teacher is an alien who ends up as a school teacher. With lots of laughs and a little bit of ecchi if you liked one you should like the other.

hamletsmage says...

Mature romances between a boy and his... not-human girl-thing. One girl is an android with no memory, the other is a half-alien surveillance officer. Either way, boy meets girl, boy ends up living with girl, boy had misadventures due to relationship with girl. There are also some side-romance plot lines, strange side characters, and goofyness mixed with serious circumstances. 

Preutz says...

Both anime fit nicely into the "magical girl" genre, featuring an unlikely male protagonist with his fair share of problems who, by a twist of fate, meets the love of his life -- a more or less perfect girl from a different world who slowly helps him surmount his personal problems and realize his own admirable inner qualities. The stories focus on similar elements: the turbulences of their relationship, the concealment of the girl's true identity, annoying younger sisters, and the growth of the characters. Both anime have their comic and tear-jerking moments, and leave the viewer with a warm feeling inside. While many would argue that the storyline in Ah! My Goddess is more fully developed, Please Teacher does have a more conclusive ending!

freakzilla says...

Please Teacher and AMG TV are very alike; they both have tons of circumstantial humor and a romance with a being that doesn't fit into our society rather well - be it an alien or a goddess. You're bound to like both of these anime!

Skip says...

Take the kind heartedness of Kei and his 'inability' to progress romantically and change the Teacher for an Goddess.

Welcome to Ah! My Goddess, served up with more comedy, 'cringe' moments and of course the loveliest bunch of goddesses you could ever want...

When you see Skuld, think of Maho Kazami... But Worse!

Ruether says...

Onegai Teacher strikes me as a rather poor imitation of Ah! My Goddess. A beautiful woman improbably appears in the life of an awkward young man. They end up living together, but they can't seem to make a romantic connection. You also may notice that the female leads have the same voice.

Despite the overt similarities, I found AMG to have more fully formed characters and themes. So if you like Onegai Teacher I suspect you will like AMG even more; that is, if you somehow haven't seen it already.

rdaniels says...

The premise of both of these shows is that of a beautiful, out-of-this world woman and regular guy meeting and falling in love.  Both focus mostly on the relationship between the two leads, instead of bringing in a harem of other girls fighting for attention.  Neither show uses ecchi as a crutch to sell the show, although Please Teacher does contain more than AMG.

Jdogtoocool says...

I agree, there's a similar love triangle type deal going on in both anime and of couirse they both deal with extraterrestrials. If you like one I'm sure you'll love the other.

faerieponey says...

Both series have the same subject : the mariage between a student and a teacher. In both stories the main characters have to hide their love and marriage since it's forbiden and also they have to deal with the couple life that it's so very new to them and presents them with many problems each day

Animedreamer240 says...

Okusama is like Please Teacher in reverse. The teacher is male, the student is female, and they must hide their forbidden love as they try to deal with things in every day life. Both series have a comical and serious approach to such relationships.

wolfangel87 says...

My Wife is a High School Girl and Please Teacher involve a marriage between a teacher and a student although the role in each are mixed by gender. They are very comical concerning how they have to hide their love from other people and deal with the problems of everyday life together.

Sextoelegido says...

" Both series it is on a relation of love rather prohibited with a teacher with a comical side who tries to prevent them from discovering his relation. "

KiraRin says...

Two shows about a student dating a teacher and their struggle to keep it secret from friends and classmates. Onegai has the female teacher, with Okusama the male.

Watching the couples struggle helplessly as people start to suspect about their relationship and dig deeper is quite funny.

The characters are very similar, both females are completely clueless and dependent on their male partners for the most simple of tasks. If you fantasise about this kind of woman, I would strongly recommend both of these series for you ^^

extent says...

Tenchi Muyo is another fun romantic comedy.

DarkMac says...

If you liked romance from one of those animes you'll most probably like the other, although Onegai (Please) Teacher is kind of more serious on this subject. Also both treat about alien's, and also contain humor. Give it a try and you won't be dissapointed.

Jdogtoocool says...

I agree with both Tenchi Muyo and Please Teacher you get the aliens, love triangles, and all the romantic comedy you can ask for. If you liked one I'm sure you'll love the other.

hamletsmage says...

Boy meets girl, girl turns out to be an alien... With romantic rivals, adorable space-ship creatures, and often serious discussions, these two anime are pretty similar. 

XMrNiceguyX says...

Both series feature a boy and alien girl falling in love with eachother. I both series they have to face all sorts of problems regarding their love. TH eonly real difference between these two is that Onegai teahcer has a more mature outside, while the Narue no Sekai is obviously for the younger public

phlyingpenguin says...

Both Onegai Teacher and Narue no Seikai are feel good sorts of love stories involving seemingly human aliens. While both shows match a geeky human male up to an alien female, the plots are otherwise different which is refreshing if you're comparing the two shows. Both are on my top list of feel good love story shows.

Arielle says...

Both series are about a young boy/man who falls in love with an alien woman/girl and all the trouble that comes with it!

Jdogtoocool says...

I agree, both Please Teacher and The World of Narue are very similar. Everything from the slice of life with a little spice (the spice being the aliens and the extraterrestrial setting) to the organizations overseeing everything in both universes. Plenty of romance and fun situations await. If you liked one I'm sure you'll love the other.
