Well now, you’re lookin’ for some animes like that Tomo-chan Is A Girl, eh? I reckon you’ve been watchin’ that one and wonderin’ what else might tickle your fancy, huh? Don’t worry, I gotcha covered, I sure do. So, let me tell ya ‘bout some other shows you might like if you’re enjoyin’ Tomo-chan and that tomboyish gal, Tomo Aizawa, who’s tryin’ to get her childhood friend Jun to realize she’s a girl and not just one of the boys!
Now, if you like the fun, goofy feel of Tomo-chan, I’d say you should give Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun a try. It’s got that same kinda vibe where you got misunderstandings, awkward moments, and a whole lot of laughs. The girl in this one, Chiyo, she’s tryin’ to confess her feelings to a guy, but it don’t go quite the way she planned. Much like Tomo, she’s got herself all tangled up in this mess of emotions, and it’s real funny to watch how things turn out. Plus, it’s got a clueless fella, just like Jun, so you might get a kick outta that too!
Now, hold your horses, I know you might be thinkin’, “What other shows got tomboys in them?” Well, I’m glad you asked! If you like the idea of a tough girl tryin’ to get a guy’s attention, then you might want to take a look at Toradora! It’s not exactly the same as Tomo-chan, but you got this gal, Taiga, who’s got a bit of that fiery, tough attitude. She’s not a tomboy like Tomo, but she sure can hold her own, and the way she interacts with the boy she likes, well, it’s a bit like watchin’ Tomo tryin’ to get Jun to notice her.
And then, I’d also say you oughta give My Senpai Is Annoying a shot! You got a young gal, Harumi, who’s workin’ under this older guy, and she’s got that same kinda tough but cute vibe like Tomo. She’s out there workin’ hard, tryin’ to balance her feelings and her career. There’s a bit of that “I’m not a little girl” attitude she’s got, which is somethin’ that makes Tomo’s story so relatable, I’d say. But in this one, the focus is more on the work and less on the tomboyishness, though the heart of the story is still real nice!
Don’t forget, if you’re in the mood for somethin’ with a bit of a mix of emotions, you could try Lovely★Complex. This one here’s all about a tall girl and a short guy, but trust me, it’s got plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, awkward romance, and even some tomboy-ish qualities from the girl. She’s got a strong, independent spirit, even though she’s not exactly the same kind of tomboy Tomo is. Still, if you like that awkward romance and high school drama, you’ll be smilin’ all the way through!
And now, I got to mention Fruits Basket, even though it’s not a straight-up tomboy story. But let me tell ya, the gal in it, Tohru Honda, she might not be a tomboy, but she sure is strong in her own way. She’s dealin’ with a lotta family troubles and still keeps her spirit up. It’s not so much about the tomboyishness as it is about growth and changin’ with the times. But if you’re watchin’ Tomo-chan, you might appreciate the heart and growth that comes with Tohru’s journey!
All these shows got a bit of that same heart that Tomo-chan Is A Girl has. Ya know, a bit of awkwardness, some funny moments, and them gals or boys all tryin’ to figure out what’s goin’ on in their hearts. If you liked Tomo-chan, I reckon you’ll find somethin’ good in these shows, maybe even somethin’ you didn’t expect!
