Campione: they who slay gods even though they wear the flesh of humans. Those who are crowned with the title of Campione are humans who through some insane feat of skill and luck have slayed a heretic god that descended upon Earth. In exchange, they are granted with superhuman bodies and increased parameters in all areas. They also obtain "Authorities" special powers that are related to the gods they slay. Kusanagi Godou has become one such Campione purely by chance. He has no want for the power or authority granted to him by his newly gained title, but he keeps getting challenged anyway. As the youngest Campione he is also the weakest, but he is able to survive through his own determination and the powers of the strange harem he seems to be gathering for some reason.

Like Date A Live, much of Campione revolves around Godou building up his harem of superpowered females whether he's willing to or not. It is only through working together with his females that he has any chance of surviving against the many forces that are out to get him now that he has become a god slayer. Much of the anime itself is light hearted, but it does know when to get emotional.

Hyoudou Issei never wanted much in his life. All he ever wanted was to be able to live the pervert life in peace by peeking on girls and watching the most erotic porn he can get his hands on. But everything changed when a fallen angel attacked. Under the guise of asking him out on a date, his date soon reveals herself to be a mythical and biblical creature that spears him through with a light projectile. However, his dreams of perversion don't end with his death, for he is soon resurrected by Rias Gremory, a top class devil. With the promise of being able to one day obtain his very own harem, Issei is spurred to train hard to battle the dangers of the supernatural alongside his new master!

Unlike many of the harem animes out there, this protagonist wants a harem for once. Issei is extremely unrepentant about his dreams and does everything in his power to obtain them. Unfortunately Issei does face the typical denseness of harem protagonists. Like Date A Live, there are many dangers that threaten the harem and Issei must do all that he can to protect them from it. While Issei is able to defend himself unlike Shidou, he is still a male and therefore at the whims of the many females that populate his harem. Jealousy, angst and female problems in general are still a real thing that the two protagonists could possibly chat about in a bar should they ever meet.

On his way home from the convenience store, Ayumu Aikawa is killed in a horrible gruesome way by a serial killer. Fortunately, or unfortunately, he is brought back to life by the necromancer Eucliwood Hellscythe. As part of her powers, he is not brought back as a human but as a zombie, allowing him to take crippling injuries with ease and to exceed the limits of the human body. While he remains beholden to her, they come across the greatest weirdos of the supernatural world like a chainsaw wielding magical girl, a vampire leaf blade kunoichi and a girl who uses food to fight. Can Ayumu survive the abuse from so many superpowered freaks? He probably could, but he probably wouldn't like it either.

This type of harem anime isn't seen very often. While there is some general humor and even imouto style humor, much of the humor centers on the masochism of the main character. As he is now unable to die, he is able to take an unbridled amount of abuse while still staying alive. Just for the sake of his sanity, he must try to tame all the weird girls he comes across. But he'll probably fail. While most harem animes focus on corralling super powered women for the sake of comedy, Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka? does it for humor as well as actual real life combat. That’s right you heard us right; like Date A Live, there is actual conflict that actually has consequences for our heroes if they fail.

Ryuu Yamada entered High school hoping to distance himself from his delinquent past. He wants to become a brand new person and a good student. Unfortunately, like all of us, Yamada is an ordinary shitty human being and he soon becomes a failing student who gets into trouble all the time. By a twist of fate, he runs into the honors student, Urara Shiraishi, ending in an accidental kiss. This kiss causes them to switch bodies, leading to hilarious situations. Upon learning of their power, the pair are invited the Supernatural Studies Club. Together with the club, they soon discover the legend of Seven Witches of Suzaku High, seven female students who have obtained different powers activated by a kiss.

Unlike Date A Live, kissing the girls doesn't seal the powers but causes a strange body swapping to occur. This leads to a gluttony of fan-service, so do turn away if that's not your thing. As you probably guessed from the title, Yamada has to deal with a whole harem of powerful females that could snap him in half purely with the powers of a harem protagonist. This bears a strange resemblance to Date A Live, in which the protagonist has a strange kissing power and must withstand the hormonal discharges of a whole harem of women that can cause nation wide disasters from a tantrum.

Whilst Minato Sahashi contemplates the utter failure of his life from failing the college entrance exams twice in a row, he encounters an incredibly beautiful and busty babe named Musubi. Turns out, she is a being known as a Sekirei, a human like alien with extraordinary power. When they bond their powers with that of a human male, they unlocked the untapped potential within them. And how else does this occur but through a kiss. However, Minato soon discovers that the bond comes with a price. He is now dragged into a game of survival where he and his Sekirei must survive against other partnerships in a blood sport. At the same time, something sinister lurks in the background…

Minato Sahashi doesn't seal their powers with a kiss, but instead gains their allegiance or love, all the while unlocking their full power to battle the other contestants. This can sound a lot like a dark anime full of slavery themes, but it really is mostly light hearted and humorous, with flashy fight scenes sprinkled between. Minato must do all he can to survive the sordid game, as well as his harem!

While the kiss aspect is still present, Minato has an easier time managing his harem in comparison to Shidou because he gains their loyalty. But this doesn’t mean the harem conflict isn’t as real as ever. Like Shidou, he has to juggle half a dozen girls who have fallen in love with him due to his efforts to gain their love and loyalty. And it's a thousand times worse when they possess super powers.

Keima Katsuragi is known online as the legendary "God of Conquest". He is able to capture the heart of any girl effortlessly as long as they reside in a dating sim game. Over the years, he has built his reputation through his obsession with galge games and finishing them as fast as he can, even going so far as to discard the real world. One day, Keima receives a challenge to prove his power at dating sim games and he accepts, not knowing that it is a trap. He is soon trapped into a contract with Elsie, a demon from hell tasked with capturing runaway spirits that hide within the crevices of young girls' hearts. The only way to force the spirits out of their hearts is to fill them; by making them fall in love. Keima must make use of his 2D powers to conquer 3D women, or face decapitation by deadly collar.

This anime is literally the closest thing to Date A Live there is. They must both make the girls that have super powers fall in love with them and seal the deal with the kiss, or mass disaster will happen. There are small differences, like the gaming mechanic being far more prominent in TWGOK and Date A Live having a smaller more concentrated cast of a girls. But at the end of the day, if you need something super similar, this is probably your best bet.
