Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru addpermalink

Figure 17 and Blue Drop have the same basic setting in which a young and lonely female protagonist forms a strong bond with a non human girl. Both have a strong sci-fi element without discounting slice of life moments that introduce character developments as the story progresses. Blue Drop has yuri undertones that are absent in Figure 17 but they both offer a balanced take on daily life drama spiced with aliens and adventure.

Simoun addpermalink

Simoun and Blue Drop offer a mix of shoujo-ai and giant flying ships, a combination that does not occur all that often. In both cases there is a mostly female cast and a war backdrop that fuels the plot is balanced by the interaction between the several characters. Simoun is set in a somewhat fantastical world and follows the clash between religion and military accomplishments while Blue Drop takes place in a world that is more or less realistic

Zegapain addpermalink

Both of these anime focus on an odd futuristic setting where mechas are used to solve the plot issue. One big tie these two have is the romantic role within the story. Both have mecha fights and sort of political wars while developing the romance between the two love interests. As the story moves forward the romance builds up. The only difference is that Blue Drop is much more tragic than Zegapain

Noir addpermalink

The main character of Noir is  an amnesiac, somewhat similar to Mari-san from Blue Drop. Both the leading heroines have a slight yuri interest in one another.
Blue Drop has scifi as a second genre, Noir is a girls-with-guns,adventure type of genre but they both share a mystery/suspenseful subgenre/ending.
The central alien race in BD are all female, while Noir has extraordinary female leads, enemies and characters.

Strawberry Panic addpermalink

Another angsty anime with yuri elements that is centered around a female boarding school, with its main focus being the relationship between a feisty newcomer and her mysterious roommate who appears on the surface to be too perfect.

Kannazuki no Miko addpermalink

Both have great plots in the way of love, although the main character is lost in both anime, creating a climax in drama, the endings are sweet and happy.

Maria-sama ga Miteru addpermalink

While Blue Drop invests a lot of time in devoloping a sci-fi plot that is utterly absent in Marimite, it remains that both titles have a strong yuri element. The slice of life moments that take place at an all girls' academy are present in both anime and draw them together, despite considerable differences story-wise.

Element Hunters addpermalink

The OPs are very similar and give similar touchy feeling. Both are about kids on some important mission. Though E.H. has more action, and Blue Drop has more romance and psychology.
