 If you liked Kujira no Kora wa Sajou ni Utau |  ...then you might like Houseki no Kuni |
both feel like peaceful cute animes til u get past a certain part and thats when all hell lets loose. both have protags that are trying to unveil the secrets behind their "world"
Both have: - A community of a different kind of humans or humans with special abilities, wich is located in a mysterious isolated place. - The show is sorta about the slice of life of this community, its rules, the division of work, also their friendship, dramas, discoveries, tragedies etc. - There is a menace of an enemy invasor that compromise the balance of their lives in that community.
-different world setting - both are set on an island type land/ similar vibes/feels -both have characters living in an isolated place -both feature community members working together to survive and fight/have rivals with things outside their land -both feature a writer/scribe in some form -both are very unique in their designs and story- the animation from Houseki no Kuni is noticeably unique and differs from the style of Kujira no Kora wa Sajou ni Utau as it has a three dimensional style. :))

Although one clearly outshines the other, both protagonists attempt to discover more about the world around them. Phos has always been laid back never really dealing with the stress her race are actually facing and Chakuro is clueless about the history of his people. The setting of the story is put to a stage where emotions are kept more reserved and roles in society have to be met in order for them to survive. Both shows are extremely immersive leaving viewers in awe at the state the characters are living in. Another thing is the fight scenes in the show both are peaceful and yet
