Both stories revolve around a girl with unique red hair which brings her unwanted attention. The stories also share similar fantasy-like elements such as the existence of royalty.  
reportRecommended by Enna
Both involve a redhead princess born from dark haired royalty. She gets caught up in the middle of a political/royal war. Also both girls start as "weak" princess and later become strong and independent, becoming true leaders. Both cut their hair and they possess some sort of power in their eyes. They start travelling to know their country and meet several people. Even though the circumstances and the characters are different, in both the princess is in a sort of love triangle with her bodyguard and a prince.

Both stories start as marriages of convenience between royals in fantasy worlds. The heroines have the feeling of guilt for loving an enemy as they get closer to the heroes. However, Daisakusen is more comedic whereas Arcana appears to be more serious, the latter containing more intrigue within the main plot.

Both great stories, great art and about royalty - I'm sure you'll like both if you like one of these :)!

I consider Arcana a more mature version of Anima. There is still the animal-eared people who are outcasted, but Arcana is more of a romance with royalty and a darker plot. Anima is a sweeter story about young(er) teens trying to find a place to belong.

The story is so different, but i think if you Like this you migh like hadashi de bara wo fume

Marriage is a concept used to introduce the characters and story for both series. The main female protagonist marries a character who has quite a polar personality compared to her own. Both series adapts a fantasy setting where we see the relationship development of the main characters. There is action, drama, and even actual romance as the main male and female protagonist gets to know each other. 
reportRecommended by Stark700
Both series have the main characters go through an arranged marriage, on top of that the marriages have to do with royalty. Chae-Gyeong is much like Nakaba and vice-verus; both girls are confused about the feelings they have in their situation. 
reportRecommended by Shiorins
Both have people who have exclusive powers. Both involve magic. Both involve medieval kingdoms feuding with each other. Both involve treachery and manipulation. Both are highly intriguing and well presented.  
reportRecommended by Jayex
Both manga have half races present and in both the main character is royalty, but is heavily descriminated against which motivates them to fight for equality. I really like both of these and highly recommend them, though they are quite different.

Both are similar in the style of drawing and the world in which they take place. A young woman who must marry a prince and adapt to this lifestyle. 
reportRecommended by LinaHara
These are fairly similar. There's the princess who is taken away. Taken away into marriage with a hot guy for Reimei no Arcana, and kidnapped by a hot pirate in Aoki Umi blah blah. They both are imprisoned in a way, and feel an attraction towards the enemy. These are both fairly serious mangas. 
reportRecommended by PolandRule
MC characters with unknow powers who has awaken after some time. It's similar to each other, cause the world where all characters are living is full of strange creatures. Loneliness and pain, romance and happines are gather into MC mind. 
reportRecommended by Shadake
Both protagonists are disliked by their families because of their red hair. The main difference would be though is that Arcana is fantasy and Sekai is supernatural. Both excellent reads 
reportRecommended by anayardz
a story which involves discrimination towards red-haired people,though kimi o matsu is more focused towards shoujo while reime no arcana is more serious 
reportRecommended by LoneCrow
Red hair heroine and hated by having "weird" hair color

There are superhuman characters as well as people and the protagonists are both princesses. 
reportRecommended by Violet9876
Both gorgeous works by Rei Toma and are set in the same world. Whilst they are set in the same world they are entirely separate from one another. The species "Ajin" is carried through both series. The King's beast focuses much more on the Ajins though both series feature them prominently.  
reportRecommended by Sporeberry
In both mangas the main character of the story has green eyes and red hair and it's mistreated because of her hair colour. Also both heroines have a special gift/power which makes them different from normal people..Both powers are connected to their eyes: in Kainushi wa Akuma are the green eyes of jade that hold the power whether in Reimei no Arcana when she uses the Arcana her eyes turn red. Both mangas are set in fantasy worlds. 
reportRecommended by KimikoKosh
Both female leads have red hair and are sent to marry a black haired prince. Both heroines have special powers. In ATD its the power to tame demons and in RNA its the power to see the future. The mc's eventually fall in love. 
reportRecommended by Stueno
A main character with nobility ancestry, who doesn't seems to be welcome in the location where they are staying, having to deal with a lot of hardships. Along the way, we are shown how they gain the favoritism and conquer the people around them. In reimei, the protagonist is not welcome by the enemy country royalities and in who made me a princess the protagonist is not welcome by her own father, the king.

If you enjoyed Kuro hakushaku wa hoshi wo mederu, then you will love reimei no arcana. The story in reimei arcana was amazing and not cliche like most shoujo manga these days. It has a very dark tone and atmosphere in the story. The heroin has mysteroius powers in both manga. 
reportRecommended by animegirl16091
It's the story of a prince who's in love with a girl rejected by society. There's a strange emphasis on hair color. Reimei no Arcana has more supernatural elements and there are 2 love interests~ 
reportRecommended by MissSwiss
Both manga are about the arranged political marriage between a prince and a princess from enemy countries. At first the pair doesn't get along since the princess hates the prince but soon realizes he's not a bad person and starts warming up to him. 
reportRecommended by Canal
Both are about unwanted girls married off to a mean/cruel man. 
reportRecommended by SpazzyMcgee
Well the stories are a little different, but in both mangas there are arranged engagements :) Also these mangas have similar feeling :) And the art is AMAZING in both of them ^_^  
reportRecommended by KoreanLeaf
the story reminds me of reimei no arcana, a very good and hot manga... 
reportRecommended by audry1000
Both mangas are about couples forced in a marriage that hate eachother at first but as they spend more time with one another they fall in love. Both endure many obstacles. Reimei no Acarna is more fantasy while Hapi Mari is more realistic/slice of life. I enjoyed reading these two immensly, definetly recommend it! 
reportRecommended by SpazzyMcgee
Firstly, they both deal with time travel issues more or less. Secondly, both have hot boys who guard main character. And finally, their stories focus on past and people with some abilities. If to throw all this away, they both are a real dessert for your eyes. Read them both, you won't regret it. 
reportRecommended by Nikkicat
Both main characters are of royal blood involving a charming bodyguard and an obvious love interest (whom the main character first despise). Also, there's a lot of similarities between the main characters of both manga. The story and setting are somewhat different, but they're both good! 
reportRecommended by tarepanda
Both involve a non-human raising a human baby and later, falls in love. In both the non-humans co-existed with humans and helped them, but later the humans turned against them.

Circumstances of both manga are similar. Both are cute and nice, tho Reimei no Arcana has more depth. 
reportRecommended by Tryfaina
Red hair, shunned childhood, special powers, animal-human-creature-things...  
reportRecommended by Tryfaina
It's all about 'power' Reimei no Arcana and Siesta has romance and comedy. Reimei no Arcana is more to romance and Siesta is a little more serious than Reimei no Arcana, but they are both great to read!!! I love the art XD 
reportRecommended by ForgedHero
the exact same storyline so far.. *a wedding between two kingdoms aiming for a truce *the prince is very handsome but also very rude to the princess -the tsundere type- *a princess with the ability to see the future *she has a male compagnion whome she trusts but he makes the husband "kinda" jealous -we can't really tenn since there is only one chapter but it seems like it- well since i loved Reimei No Arcana i think this one is pretty good: :3 besides, the art is nice too

While in Reimei no Arcana the princess is treated as anathema for her red hair and her slave for being a beast, in Joou no Hana the princess is treated as less by the other royalty because of her mother and her slave is treated as such because of his blond hair ( foreigner ). Joou no Hana the princess is strong and fights for her place in the world. Both princesses have excellent character and are not like "princesses" - they treat others as equal and care about them and don't believe in slavery. Neither of them are  read more

Female princess that can take care of themselves! Go girl power!

Main Themes: Fantasy & Romance. Both female leads are strong and surrounded by bisshies. A touch of mystery also included.

The beginning is almost the same. A princess from an other country must married the enemy's prince. 
reportRecommended by Elie
In Dokuhime & Reimei no Arcana, the heroines are married into enemy territory. Dokuhime is darker in theme & plotline but both still revolve around the girl's strong will to live in enemy country.
