Both series have a white-haired, cute girl protagonist. They become friends with the male protagonist - a genuinely nice and sweet guy - and their friendship gradually changes over the course of the story. They both have humour integrated into an otherwise emotional story.

Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso is like even more heartbreaking version of Plastic Memories. They're both cute but tragic love stories.

A robot cannot feel emotion regardless of the circumstances but what if it can connect with human emotion to a certain extent? However, like every reward there is a price to pay and the aftermath really hits you deep down. 'Plastic Memories' and 'Chobits' delivers an emotional level of bonding between humans and androids that are designed to feel almost human. In the midst of it all, the lovely musics certainly did not damper the standard of the show. Touching moments are undeniably hard to ward off as it shows us what it means to have something so precious and alive being taken away from

Both shows deal with 'death' in a sense or saying goodbye to a loved one, both are very emotional shows and take you on a roller coaster of emotions. Though they have different settings you get similar vibes from both.

Plastic Memories and Planetarian are based in the future where robots are meshed into normal life with humans to a certain degree. In each show there is a human male protagonist and robotic female who's lifespan is coming to an end. These shows feature the sci-fi/drama genre and add a spin with romance between the main characters. If you enjoyed either show I'd recommend the other for a similar experience.

SukaSuka is like Plastic Memories if you fleshed out the world and made it stand on its own, setting it apart from the romance plot. Plastic Memories is like SukaSuka because it focuses on a girl who does not have much time left to be with the one she loves. One is high fantasy, the other is sci-fi. Both are tearjerkers.

While I was watching Violet Evergarden, I couldn't help but note the similarities between it and Plastic Memories. Both main characters, Violet and Isla, are connected in several ways as their character is developed and brought out to life. Both shows are similar in story plot as Violet ghostwrites letters, learning about each person's story and getting a feel for her audience. The same can be said for Isla as she and Tsukasa return the Giftia to their homes. If you enjoyed Violet Evergarden, you'll definitely find Plastic Memories to your liking as well

Both are romance dramas, though plastic memories is more cheery (as in at the start, I wont spoil, kinda) and pancreas takes a serious approach. These shows both revolve around death and the desire to live before the inevitable doom. If you liked either, or got emotionally attached (F) you'll like the other one :) have a dramatic Friday night

Psycho-Pass and Plastic Memories shares several similarities. Both stories consists of characters that are forced to deal with a certain problem densely woven into their everyday normal lives in a near-futuristic society, which is as common as breathing air. Both anime have teams of usually two, which consists of a higher-ranking person who oversees the other who handles the dirty work. In each anime, the higher-ranking person are also armed with a highly destructive technologically advanced gun that shoots a projectile beam of light, capable of incapacitating or obliterating their partner--but mainly used for only dangerous threats. Both stories deal with smaller problems in their

Would you regret your memories after meeting someone who'd help you come back from depression? Tomoya is to Isla as Nagisa is to Tsukasa.

Plastic Memories is similar to Hal in it's human/android relationship. Androids usually are in place of a loved one. Both shows are focused on romance and deal with death/the loss of a person. Plastic Memories is more of a romance story versus Hal is a drama/romance.

Both Share the same point of view of AI robot becoming human and drama that they're experienced. However, the feeling of both of them is quite a bit different.

Angel and Isla are very similar. Both involve a futuristic setting where androids are a common commodity. One involves androids with an expiration date whereas the other involves an outdated android.

both main female characters of these series dont even know that they shouldnt change in front of the main male guy but try to create memories and learn the love

Dimension W and Plastic Memories are similar in the setting and character element. Both are placed in the future and live coexisting with humans and robots. In each show the main characters are a human male and female robot. Though Dimension W is based on an energy crisis and Plastic Memories is focused on romance and more dramatic elements. If you liked the futuristic setting in either show you'd like the other.

Androids: indistinguishable from normal humans, are part of everyday life in society. Both stories dive into what it means to be human, vs just simply robots. With the spice of comedy garnishing these two series, it's a hearty full course of drama packed with emotions, that will make us reevaluate our perspectives on the lives of both people, and androids.

Memories are important, but sometimes they can disappear without a clue. Plastic Memories and Isshuukan Friends both treat memory loss as a common occurrence, and try to teach the importance of overdosing on memories within a short period of time to create happiness. Both shows also attempt to force feels down your throat.

Both deal with the idea of living life to its fullest, and although Charlotte is a supernatural show and Plastic Memories deals with androids, in the end, both tell a tale of how the only thing that remains in the end is the memories made along the way.

"Black Bullet" and "Plastic Memories" focus on a team of two partners made up of a boy and a girl who work to help a futuristic society through straightforward assignments. In their line of work, there is also the role of a guardian who mostly looks over the other partner who does most of the job. Furthermore, the female leads of both these two shows have a limit as to how long they can continue to live due to a restriction inherent within their bodies.

"Time of Eve" / "Eve no Jikan" and "Plastic Memories" both involve incredibly life-like androids with artificial intelligence that have been integrated into society and were produced to act as helpers for humans who need their assistance in daily life. In these two similar works, androids are advanced enough to be capable of displaying emotions as well as making their own decisions. Unfortunately, there also exists a limit as to how long they can operate for due to aging within their systems. As a result of that, the theme of loss is another commonality, where people who have grown attached to their android companions fear

The storyline, romance and drama has the same vibe. Sad endings. Both of the MC has similar personality. Great to watch for romance and drama lovers.

Both share the genre Romance and Drama similar feelings both have lovable characters  
report Recommended by Megamonization
They both have two protagonists, a male and a female, who get closer and closer in their relationship as time goes on and the more time that they hang out with each other. Both Okabe and Mizugaki face problems when they realise they are going to lose companions they have worked with and gotten to know after spending time with them. Steins;Gate goes into more detail of this problem with a slower pace and how the main character overcomes it.

Both have the theme of cherishing the moment. Although Plastic Memories is a rom-com, it does convey this message pretty well. 
report Recommended by Sittadon
Both medias present us with a duo of a human and antrophomorphised robot, and both shows convey well the slow but steady bonding of these duets, and how they influence eachother in their lives.

The art is totally the same, vibrant colors, and white shadings on the edges of everything... There are lots of comedy in both anime, as well as hilarious misunderstandings and also bits or romance.. Also, both anime share a secret that is the reason for the somewhat awkward behavior of one of the main characters. I highly recommend both of them, if you are a fan of comedy/drama ^^

Love story with a sick girl who won't live long 
report Recommended by Pumpkinyaaan
- Love story with similar feel, specially about "forgetfulness" and "living the moment"; - Main female character super awkward that doesn't know how to behave properly in society, and gets help by the main male character in order to better deal with it.

-Both have a male protagonist (Tsukasa/Yuuta) that have a special bond with a certain strange girl (Isla/Rikka) -Both are slice of life (PlaMemo takes place in the future, with the MC working in a company that produces robots and androids, while Chuunibyou takes place in the present-day, with the MC a member of a certain high school club) -Both are romantic comedy-dramas, though PlaMemo is a bit serious -Michiru and Nibutani have the same voice and personality, and so is Eru and Dekomori

Both focus on a main character having to go through day to day life with their recently acquired cute female robot friend with long light blue hair, while realizing that said friend will soon expire. Both have a heavy focus on "feels".

Plastic Memories and Hybrid Child both have human-like 'dolls'. While Hybrid Child dolls 'reflect' the owner, Plastic Memories 'Giftias' have artificial souls with a limited lifespan of 9 years before they are retrieved. Plastic Memories is not a shounen ai, but both animes have bittersweet moments surrounded by the concept of 'love'. While Hybrid Child focuses on the doll growing from love, Plastic Memories deals with the memories of love when time is limited.

Both shows feature an average-looking protagonist who wants to help a curious white-haired girl, in which a love triangle arises from it.
