A young man, who has been deemed worthless by society, waits for his impending death..... With a pretty young woman who is by his side, the said young man who is on his death row, ends up falling for this mysterious girl 

reportRecommended by -Sonal-

Similar story but more darker and closer to reality 

reportRecommended by _OWL_

Both are romantic drama about two people who don't have much time left to spend together 

reportRecommended by _Mataga_

Both are stories about a Male and female who have practically nothing worth living for 

reportRecommended by jak3scott

The similarities of both these stories come in the strength of their drama and anyone with even a little bit of craving for a drama should read both of these titles.

The similarities of both of these stories come from the same story element of a character who has a limited time left to live. In both cases a character has their life span limited on way or another and the story follows those characters as they find ways to fulfill their last days on Earth, they both go through several stages of emotions that burst out when someone knows that their time is nearing it’s final.

A female main character is present in both stories, a character who is there to witness that other person live their shortened life. Both these female characters are there to witness the development of human emotions that are expressed through the male character.  read more

Short stories that will absolutely destroy you inside check. Watashitachi and three days of happiness are both mainly about a guy who wants to die (and is also supposed to soon enough) and a girl, who isn't doing that much better, that suddenly came to change all of that. They both start off kind of slow, but considering their total length it's nothing more than a small factor to hype you up.  

reportRecommended by lysanthrope

These two manga are short and nicely written romance manga that show the development between the two characters when put under a time limit. 

reportRecommended by -ykn-

Both works recount a tale of two troubled individuals who met by a twist of fate, providing each other with cathartic support. Both the stories are short and simple, yet engaging and thought-provoking. They are like two beautiful novellas in manga form. 

reportRecommended by Nontai

Similarities:

- Both series share a common thread: a male protagonist with a tragic past, who doesn't have much time left, falls in love with a female whose situation is equally dire.
- In their final days, they together explore various emotions and come to truly understand the value of life.

Differences:

- Watashitachi stands out with its realistic, grounded approach and profoundly bleak storytelling.
- Unlike the other, Watashitachi delves into darker, more mature themes with a realistic tone.

Both are short and beautiful series. 
Both are meaningful series. 
Both have themes about life and living.

From the same author of Jumyou wo Kaitotte Moratta., stories have a similar story revolving with characters with little meaning to live but live. Which comes upon our main character selling his life to find reason and experience what has been leading up to then, boredom.

Nice and have creative and interesting views on life. Both wholesome and have great conclusions. Both have creative methods (3 days of happiness being the ability to take away one's life for money and Omoide emanon with memories dating back 3 billion years ago). Both have nice art and both include wholesome romance and you feel happy but yet sad at the ending. a perfect sensation while reading both

Both have the same depressing but oddly calming atmosphere. You know that it will be the end. Both will give you some level of sadness, but not the kind that will make you cry loudly; the kind that will make you suffer in silence.

While the premise of both the manga is very different, what is common to both is how people realize (or are made to realize) the importance of being/staying alive, and how it's never too late to make a difference.

Manga: Ore ga Doutei wo Sutetara Shinu Ken ni Tsuite

Ore ga Doutei wo Sutetara Shinu Ken ni Tsuite addpermalink

Both have prominent themes of regret, though each examines it differently. In Ore ga Doutei, the main character is allowed (forced?) to redo his life until he reaches a satisfactory result. In Jumyou, the protagonist must deal with the consequences of his past behavior. Leading characters in both must try to understand other characters in the context of their (the MCs) actions.
