Both are character-driven comedies about the daily working life of a rather eccentric cast with a bit of romance and character development. Both feature multiple (possible) couples, minor love polygons and a balanced male-female ratio.
Both are based on seinen manga by female mangaka.

So random... But it's still the best comedy I have watched since quite some seasons! Give it a try if you want to laugh. (you for sure will)

Great anime. Never thought that there are still so many unexplored jokes left. Somewhat unusual art. Some characters are great. Shows at some extend how manga shops work. Would be a great comedy, if not diluted with some usual romance stuff.

Man if they skipped some nonsense stuff and developed more romance between the characters this would receive higher ratings. Nonetheless still a standout comedy/daily life otaku themed anime. The first few episodes are a bit silly but later on its actually pretty good.

Good comedy that has some actual developent which is rare for the genre lately. I liked the funny moments, but what I liked even more were the developing romantic relationships between the three couples.
Not one-of-a-kind-unique, but definitely more than your average otaku comedy.

If you like weird but funny ensemble casts and/or familiar with Japanese otaku culture. Definitely a pick up for you.
Most jokes are heavily reliant on one of the two factors above.
