If you like the school style back drop with a male lead and a female harem and some sweet action and comedic moments then you'll enjoy this one for sure

These two series are extremely similar in their respective motifs. Both involve a main character who goes to a combat-oriented academy for family reasons. Both protagonists are subtly overpowered and have limits on those powers. They feel like typical shounen/harem series but are entertaining nonetheless.

They both are similar in protagonist being over powered, plot getting in complete and have no clue when next season will come
Chivalry of a Failed Knight
- TV (12 eps)
- 2015
Ikki Kurogane may have come from a long line of Blazers, people with the ability to create weapons or devices manifested from their souls, but as far as the Hagun Academy is concerned, he's been a major disappointment in the magical powers department. He is so disappointing, in fact, that he's earned the unfortunate nickname of the "Worst One". However, things change for Ikki in the most surprising way when Princess Stella Vermillion, the most promising Rank-A Blazer to come along in many years, decides to transfer to Hagun. When she challenges him to a duel where the loser must obey the winner for the rest of their life, the last thing anyone expects is that the Worst One might prove to be a match for the Crimson Princess… and the unforeseen consequences will push the boundaries of society itself!

- the way the mc meets the girl and the way they both seem weak at first then get stronger and have powers within them makes both these animes really simular and both animes are really awesome so if you liked chivalry of a failed knight you should watch the asterisk war and if you liked the asterisk war you should watch chivalry of a failed knight.

If you like the asterisk war then you will probably like this anime because they both have a bit of action and some parts of it had romance which is my personal fave type of anime romance with action!

Both of these cookie cutter anime are light hearted with harem qualities.
stupid hot chicks drooling over a dude who doesn't know what to do with himself... check.
Great animation with solid action... check
Uninspired story with skin deep chars... check
All in all, Girls in a dungeon is a more a coherent anime however both are very similar in style and progression.
