They are both high school sports shows focusing on both personal and team growth. The sports introduced in both shows are traditional and recreational for the most parts, and their competitive nature isn't popular with the general public.
The Chihayafuru series has 3 (+1 summary) movies, unlike Asahinagu's 1. This allows for Chihayafuru to cover more character depth and growth, which is fortunate.
If you feel Asahinagu was fun to watch, I'm certain that you'd find the Chihayafuru series just as exhilarating, if not more!
(Plus cute girls looking fierce, what more do you need ^^)

A similar story of a traditional sports club struggling to get new members to join the team. In Asahinagu the female lead joins the club hoping to be as strong as the senior club member that she admires. While Shiko Funjatta is about Sumo dominated by males, Asahinagu is about Naginata dominated by females.
