Same author. Both of these stories are heartwrenching tales of a depressive reality. Mature subject matter is also included in both stories.

Both manga have the same realistic feel, and sense of despair. A lot of drama and heartache, and a seemingly endless cycle of one tragedy after another.

H and Deep Love-Ayu no Monogatari both have a similar art style, and the mood of the stories are very similar. In H Taichi is the homeroom teacher who really loves and cares for his students, but he has his darker side of secretly being a host. While in Deep Love-Ayu no Monogatari Ayu is a high school girl selling her body, but she keeps it a secret from the ones she cares about. I also found both these stories to be very touching.

Both are tragic love stories based off of novels that will make you cry

Both main characters are alike—broken—and both begin to discover what the meaning of true happiness is.

Both manga are about young women who sell their bodies for money for various reasons. They're both considered tragedies, although Deep Love was sadder, in my opinion. There are suicides, pregnancies, and other problems within the stories, but the stories in Delivery almost all have a happy ending.

Ayu and Orange both do not know what they are living for. Orange has fake friends and parents who don't really care about her. Ayu sells her body for money. They have very sad lives. They might not sound alike but they are both telling a story of a young women who lives are changed when they meet different people. They are both extremely sad tale that will change your view on life and how you should spend it living.

Both give you a feeling of reality and have unusual characters who went through a lot and are very pessimistic about life. Two titles full of drama but in the end really beautiful stories.Worth of reading.

They are both sad and very deep. While the plots are not very similar, both stories have great meaning and allow the reader to think. Deep Love is very depressing, so be warned before you read it.

They aren't totally similar, but both of them have really good stories. In both you can see the actual society in japan by smal aspects. Both have deaths that have lots of influence in the way of how the storie go. I have to say that BGI is more 'light' then Deep Love, because in DP you will cry almost from the begining to the end.. Anyway, both have the LOVE, even if it's in diferent forms. They're reaaaly good ^-^

Both have taboo themes: while in Flower of Evil is incest, in Deep Love is prostituition. Both are masterpiece heart breaking stories that leave you reflecting at the end.

Deep, pure drama, psychological, slice of real life. About sex, drugs, bullying. If you liked Vitamin, you'll certainly love Deep Love. If you liked Deep Love, Vitamin can be too strong for some readers, but it's awesome and there's a good chance you'll enjoy this.

Both of these stories deal with issues that no one likes talking about. Rape, drugs, bullying, prostitution ect.
