Sukisho - Recommendations

Frost says...

If you like cute boys that like cute boys, you'll like both Sukisyo and Gakuen Heaven. Both titles are based on boys' love games of the same name respectively, so this is cutesy shounen ai galore.

Nocturnalgloria says...

Sukisho and Gakuen Heaven go hand and hand: both are yaoi/shounen-ai fests that use the gimmick of an all-male academy to inject a manifold of bishounen into the cast. These two series offer believable romances between male characters; Sukisho tends to be more hilarious even if it gets darker while Gakuen Heaven is cute and mostly harmless. Anyone who enjoyed one of these series is bound to appreciate the other.

TropicalSwirl says...

Both Sukisho and Gakuen Heaven take place in a school setting and have a wide variety of different and entertaining characters. They also have roughly the same amount of shonen-ai content in them. Also, the main characters in both have something from their past that they cannot remember and they slowly recall it over the course of the series.

These two shows remind me of one another quite a bit and if you liked one, you'll probably enjoy the other.

Ran says...

Both anime have a dose of funny situations and take place in a school setting, and have the same amusing feeling. Sukisho has a more complex background story, whereas Gakuen Heaven is more centered on the relationship between the characters. Gakuen Heaven is also is a bit funnier and has a bigger variety of characters.

kawaiipie says...

Gakuen Heaven and Sukisho are light shounen ai comedy series with a high school setting. Sukisho isn't very good and is a little more confusing, but it's got a bit more shounen ai scenes, which makes it okay. If you liked one, try out the other.

Sangokagome says...

Both of these lovely BL series were spawned from dating sim games with deeper plots than they let on. In the anime, they manage to keep the same light hearted feel, and have their serious tone as well!

yuushizm says...

Both shows focus around boys love. Also, both involve the school romance situation. Both also have very attractive characters with interesting relationships. While Gakuen Heaven is on the lighter side of things, they're both similar in their ways.

cassiesheepgirl says...

Both of these series are set in an all boys school and focus on the relationship between the two central characters. Gakuen Heaven and Sukisho both have a lot of comedy in them but they also contain a fair bit of drama and uncovering of secrets from the past. If you liked this in one then check out the other.

KiraRin says...

Both set in schools with an unlikely protagonist surrounded by a plethora of beautiful bishounen, Sukisho and Gakuen Heaven are what I considered to be the weaker in the shounen-ai category. Although, what they lack in story, they make up for with some very sexy and handsome men. However, both seem to have a large fanbase and I think fans of one will definitely enjoy the other.

Frost says...

Comedy and shounen ai are the driving factors behind these two series, both filled with cute humour and equally cute romance. Gravitation has a more consistent story, where Sukisyo is much more episodic, but if boys loving boys sprinkled with lots of comic relief is your thing, you'll like both titles.

Nocturnalgloria says...

Gravitation and Sukisho develop the growing attraction between two male characters with plenty of comedy thrown into the mix. Both can be rather random and off the wall but have a darker undertone that becomes prevalent in the later episodes. If you like shounen-ai that actually delivers a solid story and has vibrant character designs, both series are a very entertaining take on boys' love.

Day22 says...

This is a great shounen-ai, and you get the same feel as Sukisho, except less serious. The story is a tad less complex, but it also has that cutesy feel that you get when you watch this show.

yuushizm says...

Gravitation is a boys love anime as well. They both have the loveably stereotypical uke/seme relationship. Both deal with humor as well as romance and drama.

cassiesheepgirl says...

If you like a bit of comedy mixed in with your boy love then both of these series are for you. Both have a good amount of drama and plot mixed in with the comedic side, so if you enjoyed that in either Sukisho or Gravitation then it's worth checking out the other.

CaymChase says...

Both are shonen-ai, both has got a graduating story full of pretty characters - story is well developed and doesn't bore, in both of these you can find a bit of comedy, drama and romance.

AstralKnight says...

Both are shounen-ai and contain a seme with repressed memories. They also include light comedy but some dark elements.

Kalthea says...

Both are a shonen-ai series with no explicit sex content, nice artand a mysterious story

Nocturnalgloria says...

Sukisho and Loveless are shounen-ai titles with a twisted plot that hinges on tragic past events that shadow the narrative. While Sukisho is overall more light hearted its later episodes match the darkness in Loveless. Both series have very smooth artwork that conveys emotional attachments easily; and both take a non-graphic approach to boys' love with plenty of heart-felt disclosures and a stress on character interactions.

SakuraDanielle says...

Both Loveless and Sukisho are about a guy who is having problems coping with his past, while getting himself wrapped up in difficult situations with the ones who love him most. They are highly loveable characters and once you start to watch the anime, you won't be able to tear yourself away from them.

Frost says...

Yet another pair of boys' love games turned anime, Princess Princess and Sukisyo have a very similar style of cute humour (accentuated with scenes of chibi-fied characters), pretty boys, and suggestion to feed the imagination.

While Sukisyo doesn't cut corners in portraying the love between men (come to think of it, I don't remember seeing even one female person in the show...), Princess Princess is more subtle, despite the main plot device being boys in drag, and settles for innuendo to indicate the shounen ai factor.

Shirono says...

Like Sukisyo, Princess Princess features an all-male cast in an all-male school full of crossdressing, fanservice, and the intent to slash. Princess Princess is more ambiguous about its pairings than Sukisyo, but if you liked the light-hearted, episodic boy-love comic-relief plot of Sukisyo, you'll definately enjoy Puri Puri.

cassiesheepgirl says...

Both Princess Princess and Sukisho both share a siilar sort of tone. Both are set in an all boys school and focus on the relationships between the central characters. As can be expected there is a good dose of shounen-ai in both series and they also share a similar style of comedy. If you liked one then it is worth trying the other.

elenaluz says...

If you like comedy with your shonen-ai, you'll like these series. Both have an air of mystery about them, but they have their cute, funny moments, too.

panikinga says...

Both animes have similar groups of friends, that make you smile or laugh, while the main characters are looking for the truth about themselves.

dreaming0 says...

Though Sukisho has more comedy, and Night Head Genesis is more of a drama, both of these anime tell the story of two people who develop a close bond because of the circumstances of their youth. As the back stories are revealed, we see the hardships that were faced, and how these boys coped with the situation.

Nocturnalgloria says...

Sukisho and Be-Boy are shounen-ai productions that play on the mains misunderstanding each other. Sukisho is mostly a comedy but has a very dark backdrop while Be-Boy is cute and mostly harmless. In both the relationship between the boys is tested and it is likely that these anime share the same fanbase.

Sangokagome says...

The best part about both of these series is that while on the outside they look like the run-of-the-mill BL story, in reality, there's plenty more that's going on. If you're looking for something to watch with plot and a couple of steamy scenes ;D then these are definitley worth checking out!

TotallyLovable says...

And after the separation, they meet again. The reasons may be different, but they do meet again after so many years. The plot lines have almost no big differences, except that the genres are different. Both Sukisho and Myspelf;Yourself hold hidden truths from the past thatare actually what ties the couples together. Sana from Myself;Yourself and Fujimori from Sukisho return to their friends and a series of events begins. What awaits them at the end? Will they find happiness? See for yourself!

Shirono says...

Both Sukisyo and Utena feature a tale lighthearted and romantic on teh surface, but dark and mysterious as the story develops. In both, someone is pulling the strings, and someone will get tragically betrayed by the one closest to them. Sukisyo has a much less complex plot, so if you're looking something with the same type of story, but a little more serious and complex, check out Utena.
