Death Note addpermalink

Renai Boukun is parody of Death Note, so even this shows are not similar at all, you should check it to understand all jokes. 

report Recommended by RJBScarletRain

Both Death Note and Kiss Note are plot devices in their respectable shows and both are used to further the plot through what is essentially magic, even though the rest of the universe is essentially realistic.

Both Death Note and Kiss Note have specific mechanics regarding how they are used, and what the consequences of misusing them are

If you liked the concept of an all-powerful book that deals with people's fates in Death Note, you are going to like that concept in Renai Boukun too. It does not kill anyone, but instead makes people fall in love artificially.

Renai is a parody of Death Note. In Death Note, the notebook is set to kill while in Renai, the notebook is set to fall in love. Both MC has a god xompanion. Death Note is a dark story while Renai has a comedic story. Bith of them are fun to watch. 

report Recommended by Half-MagePrince

Renai Boukun is a Parody of Death note. It has a Kiss Note. No other similarities.
 

report Recommended by Archfiend836

Love Tyrant is kind of parody to Death Note. To be exact, "Kiss Note". The premises' tools seem to be similar but the plot is whole total different.
Love Tyrant is a rom-com harem anime, and Death Note is a psychological thriller anime  

report Recommended by PLight09

Meanwhile the death note takes people's lives, the kiss note fixes people's lives. Its a more light hearted comedic version of death note.

Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai addpermalink

Everyone keeps saying Renai Boukun is like Death Note and Mirai Nikki, but I'd say it's much more similar to Kami Nomi. Both are harems, both are somewhat making fun of the genre, and Guri's character from Renai Bakunin is very similar to Elsie from Kami Nomi

Male MC who has a magical girl in his life suddenly appear and causes an instant harem.  In Renai, theres a yandere, and in love comedy there's a dandere.  ALL THE DERES.

Date A Live addpermalink

if you are the type of person to be guilty enough to love harem type comedies, with a hint of drama from time to time, then i think this one would be perfect for you. it's a step higher quality-wise from the former, but it's still a treat.

Mikakunin de Shinkoukei addpermalink

- unique romcom
- both have a normal main character living with or meeting supernatural creatures
- both involve a girl with special liking to some kinds of people (Guri is a yaoi- and yuricon and Benio is a sis- and lolicon) 

report Recommended by Sayaznk

Gintama addpermalink

If you like unpredictable and nonsensical humor of Gintama, you are going to like Renai Boukun. That's pretty much as far as similarities go.

Mahou Shoujo Ore addpermalink

- comedy with strange supernatural elements (RB: demons, angels, kiss note, ... - MSO: magical girls, demons, gender-bender, ...)
- similar artstyle
- similar humor/atmosphere
- LOVE POWER

Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka addpermalink

both of them:
have a male character principal who is loved by girls
principal characters have a goddess companion who is overly attached and needy
have an overpowered woman who is also the love rival of the goddess 
same type of comedy
similar length

Kanojo mo Kanojo addpermalink

Both are highly over the top rom coms that start with a threesome relationship then it evolves into chaotic harem. The humor is similar with a lot of absurd situations and shouting so if you liked one, you'll like the other too.

Kokoro Connect addpermalink

The anime is very funny has a very cool reference to death note and a novel that encourages anyone. 

report Recommended by LordSadlli

Mirai Nikki (TV) addpermalink

There is a yandere character here. While Mirai Nikki is dark anime, Renai Boukun is a comedy anime. Complete opposite of the anime Mirai Nikki. Give it a try. Good laughs.

Aishen Qiaokeli-ing... addpermalink

The same ditsy Cupid and unlucky guy plot , where unlucky guy get's entangled with the ditsy Cupid's botch up mission and has to deal with has to deal with his uncalled for harem that turns his world upside down. Also, both unlucky guys have to deal with  one of their harem member who seemly has a murderous intent with their lives.

Very Similar Harem Anime Both In Art Style and Comedy.

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan addpermalink

Ridiculous violence and a generally unhinged view of comedy. Love gone very, very wrong. 

report Recommended by delta5

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2 addpermalink

I feel its a little more similar to the second OVA since the set-up comes basically outta nowhere for the MC, but both shows have them equally murdered on an episodic basis without a care in the world from the perpetrators; all in the name of love.

Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo addpermalink

These anime both have a lot to do with the concept of the kiss, and the main premise being based around it (getting powers from kissing, having to kiss because it's a death note spoof).

Both also have very good comedic aspects, with a variety of female characters that coordinate well with the male MC. 

report Recommended by symbiotic

Jitsu wa Watashi wa addpermalink

Parody humour, school setting, element of supernatural and feeling of harem without actual harem in the list of genres. Also some characters are similar: Shikimi=Shiho, Guri=Youko/Akane, Yuzu=Nagisa etc. Both are not really deep (though both have some sad and not that bright scenes) and good for enjoyment.

Gabriel DropOut addpermalink

* Similar art style
* Angels/shingami and Angels/Demons
* School, supernatural comedy
* Cute girls 

report Recommended by RJBScarletRain

Kore wa Zombie desu ka? addpermalink

A rather unusual harem featuring immortal MC (trait, that he will use a lot), girls with supernatural abilities and lots comedy. 

report Recommended by Piromysl

School Days addpermalink

* Girl 1 is a yandere
* Our MC has a secret crush on Girl 1
* Girl 2 helps MC get closer to Girl 1
* Girl 1 turns out to have feelings for MC as well
* School harem

-- Despite these similarities, School Days is a stark contrast to Renai Boukun which is a lighthearted, comedic, and nonsensical show you're not supposed to take seriously.

Haiyore! Nyaruko-san addpermalink

Both series are romantic comedies. The characters have similar traits, even though the characters are not just copy/paste. For example in Renai Boukun, Yuzu loving Akane is like how Cthuko loves Nyaruko. But Yuzu's more timid nature falls under Hasuta's personality. 

Anyways, both series are filled with references that parody other series to Ghostbusters and Men in Black. check them out

Kyouran Kazoku Nikki addpermalink

A bunch of people are forced into a close relationship due to unfortunate circumstances. Filled with wacky humor to the brim, but also take some steps back sometimes to explore individual characters in somewhat serious arcs.

Main female character of Yuushibu and Renai Boukun are similar to each other that are soft-headed girl and amusing.

Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! addpermalink

Although Konosuba tried to stay away from love and couples in the show, both have a MC with a group of girls with interesting qualities to say the least. The humor is amusing and it's a comedy worth checking out
