Girl is completely oblivious to the boy's advances and is caught up in her own little world. She is pretty much a loner (though for different reasons) and has a friend she cherishes. 

both girls are reasonably smart, but oblivious to the unrequited love that started from a young age by "best friends". There are love rivals in both stories, and the girls although initially loners gain friends they soon cherish 

What I loved about these mangas are the protagonists. Although they have flaws in the first place, the thing is THEY ARE NOT WEAK. You won't get annoyed, I promise. Kanoko is an introvert girl, Kyoko is cute bubbly girl but they're both independent and they stand strong. They are both alone almost all their life so they both love their bestfriends that came along the way. You'd both be interested on what journey is ahead of them and get amazed and inspired on their musings. They're also both funny, Kanoko being sarcastic and Kyouko being weird. Although, they are both dense, so dense that you'd want to strangle them to get a grip of their lovelife but in the end, I assure that you'd both love them. read more 

Both manga feature independent female protagonists who impress the people around them while also simultaneously attracting the attention of several popular and attractive guys, though both ultimately have one who stands above the rest. While this is just a simple similarity in premises, the two manga go deeper than that, each having deeper messages that are conveyed through their protagonists' thoughts, words, and actions. Ouran features a lot of character building and character development through its protagonist interacting with the various host club members as well as customers, among others. On the other hand, Koi dano Ai dano's character building focuses more on people from all around the school, from the student council to the broadcasting club, et cetera. Ouran also includes a lot more comedy than Koi dano Ai dano, though Koi dano Ai dano also has its moments. The overall male leads in both manga are fairly easy to pick out, especially in Koi dano Ai dano's case. However, the two leads are rather different in personality, which leads to each manga having its own unique feeling when it comes to its romance aspects. This is especially true when you look at the overall progression of each relationship, as it seems at one point the two manga almost flip when it comes to who has to reassure who about the relationship. The reasoning behind the reassurances also differ between the two manga, however, making a set of parallels between the relationships of the protagonists in each rather difficult to find aside from the female leads both being similarly headstrong and that the romance takes somewhat of a back seat for portions of their respective manga. Ultimately, while both Ouran and Koi dano Ai dano have protagonists who have similar personality traits and an overall similar approach to character building and development, the various differences between them make for each read to feel similar enough to be familiar yet different enough to feel fresh at the same time. read more 

The two stories are very different but both female MC have similar personality : smart, level-headedand discreet. The two girls are also dedicated to their own passion (medicine and pharmaceutics for Maomao; teenage psychology and school politics for Kanoko) and hence are willing to go to great lenght to reach their goal. Both also have low self esteem and tend to devaluate themselves when it comes to their physical appearance. Last but not least, they have a hot guy in their surrounding being head over heels for them.
