Gokinjo Monogatari

two anime based on the superb work of mangaka ai yazawa. they even share some of the same characters. check both these anime out, they are awesome! 

This story is set earlier than Paradise Kiss, it is in the view of Miwako's sister when she was starting Happy Berry, its also a Romantic-Comedy and has a lot to do with fashion. 

this is the sequel! 

I think both stories are very human. Imo most of Ai Yazawas work is very human, all of her work is worth taking a look at if you ask me. 

Both are: * Drama/romance with lots of funny moments * Old anime * Long (50 eps and more) Even though the artwork in Gokinjo Monogatari is different and kind of unusual, but they have similar atmosphere and feeling 

Both are shows that focus on fashion, friends and drama. The main characters are strong female characters who love fashion and hanging around Shibuya. The styles of the shows are also similar.  

Stories take place on high schools whereas the main character is exploring her feelings and how she will be able to express herself from the ones they love. Misunderstandings are also present which makes the story interesting. The male protagonists support the females, even though we all know that they love them, but couldn't say it out of fear that they will be rejected. Or to be laugh at. Main differences tho, it is that the Kimi Ni Todoke female protagonist has troubles communicating in general, and she has a lot of misunderstandings, while the one from Gokinjo Monogatari, had a simple argument which leads to many different kinds of events.  read more
