Strobe Edge

Ao Haru Ride addpermalink

Strobe edge and Ao Haru Ride are manga from the similar author, io-sensei. Both story is about the struggles of a teenager falling in love with the popular guy in school. Both mangas have characters with unique and strong personalities which are lovable to love and to hate. The storyline might sounds cliche but io-sensei is really the master in depicting these type of stories. The sweet moments make you happy, the sad moments make you cry. It is really amazing how the characters grows in both manga. Definitely worth reading.

They both share the same author, Sakisaka Io. High school, love triangles, great supporting cast; pretty much the exact same thing but in different flavors. For Strobe Edge, you have a girl who is hopelessly in love with the popular guy. In Ao Haru Ride, you have a girl who's trying to rekindle an old romance. They both have generic storylines but ultimately set themselves apart through top notch artwork and storytelling.

The same author - Sakisaka Io. I think it explains everything. The atmosphere is very similar and some characters have similar personalities. Even main male characters looks  almost identical. Plus both series are interesting school romances with a little good comedy.

Both are about high school life, romance and love triangles. The atmosphere is  also very similar.
The amount of shoujo clichés is very minimal.

Both manga series are first of all, written by the same author, Io Sakisaka. As such, there is the theme of romance present as one of the major drives in both series.

Both series' main female protagonist falls for one of the main male protagonist in the series but the main male protagonist has a hard time dealing with it.

Both series has a lighthearted atmosphere with no ecchi but rather complied with drama, misunderstandings, and love triangles.

Both series also takes place at school setting and deals with complicated relationships.

reportRecommended by Stark700

First and foremost, both are written by the same author, Io Sakisaka. If you have watched Strobe Edge and wanted some more of it, you should definitely give Ao Haru Ride a try.

Both deals with the main female lead finding herself experiencing love at the first time. While both male leads projects a quiet, mysterious and gentle image. Love triangles are also present in both mangas.

Well , I loved this mangá and Strobe Edge its very similar to Ao Haru Ride 'cause mainly the aspect is the same as the futaba and kou but but the personalities are a little different when we see the first glance thought '' wtf? Ninako is the baby Futaba and the Ren is the Kou with straight hair? '' lol! The course of history is very interesting and very surprising! Too bad the manga is small but I was really surprised by the author have developed and explained the stories of the characters in a few chapters = P I loved the manga, the characters and the story not expecting less than Sakisaka Io after all is the same author of Ao Haru Ride :3 so I recommend and hope you like it <3 read more

They are two shoujo mangas involving some love triangles but a strong pairing between the main couples. There are also some secondary couples which makes it cute. Overall they are really similar because they can be emotional but very cute!

It was written by the same author, though Strobe Edge has a lighter note than Ao Haru Ride. Certain aspects of the male characters might pull on your heart strings.

Both are romance manga that take place in school. Ao Haru Ride has a lot of contrived drama, which Strobe Edge doesn't have (at least not that much). They are also both made by the same author and have similar art styles.

Both are made by the same person, art & story. Both also follow a similar premise towards falling in love with a so called 'popular guy'. If you're into shoujo and some cliche, these are two very promising works.

Orange addpermalink

I get a familiar feel when reading either Strobe Edge or Orange. Both shoujo series explores human emotions with the main characters. They are also known for well-rounded romance that develops between the main male and female protagonists. As time goes on, the connection they build explores their true characteristics. Drama is distinctive that holds strong emotional values as well in their story. Orange is also noticeable for its additional supernatural content while Strobe Edge's story gets more complicated with romance angles.

Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji and Strobe Edge follows some classic shoujo tropes with romance and love triangles. The main female protagonist in both series lacks experiences in love and tries to build a relationship with another boy in the story. As time progresses, we see how much they connect both on a more personal level. Both series also has a main male protagonist with an outer cool image that other people seems to idolize.

Strobe Edge and Akaiito delivers some classic romance themes involving drama, love triangles, and childhood connections. Both series' main protagonists experiences love but finds themselves at difficult times to get their point across. The storytelling of both series has a slow pacing and is fairly predictable. However, character relationships gets more and more complicated as others gets involved while interpersonal issues are explored.

Hana-kun to Koisuru Watashi addpermalink

Although the theme unrequited love plays out much longer in Strobe Edge... In Hana-kun its short lived....but the feeling of the story still remains. I think if you liked Strobe Edge's slow pace and anticipation for when realizations will form, and almost a sort of realistic feel to the characters emotions, they sort of collide in that aspect. You may or may not like one or the other but either way these two bring out the great feelings of hurt and true happiness that love brings.

Both stories have a leading female role with a cute/innocent and confused personality. Then there is the quiet guy she has a crush on and the outgoing guy that likes her (and tries to steal her).

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun addpermalink

What's the fun in reading the same plot over again, or using the same character stereotypes?  I liked Strobe Light because of the character development and strong supporting cast, so I'm here to recommend another such series to you: my favorite, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun (or My Little Monster).  The leads are nothing like those found in Strobe Edge, but that isn't my point.  I am purely recommending it out of respect for story-telling.  Strobe Edge has a more realistic chemistry between its leads, but Shizuku's frankness and Haru's simplicity are hard to resist.  Furthermore, it is a much funnier shoujo, if you can appreciate that.  I mentioned the supporting cast as well--that's actually a very big deal.  If an author truly understands the value of a good relationship between leads, then they also understand the inherent necessity of strong relationships between the leads' friends.  It gives the whole story more life. read more

Strobe Edge and Suki desu Suzuki-kun!! are shoujo manga with prominent relationship developments. At the core of the story, we have a main female protagonist who attracts the attention of main male characters. Romance is evident as the story progresses and we learn more about them. There is also drama that reaches to climatic points. Expect both friendships and rivalries to develop between the main characters. Anyone who is interested in shoujo should give these two titles a try for their more complicated drama.

In this recommendation, it's more of a case of "if you like one of these, you'll probably like the other" as both stories are similar, but the plots are pretty different in how things work out.
So, in both stories - there's a girl who like's this guy who doesn't exactly seem to be interested in that present time, both stories go about it in different ways.
Of course there's a guy on the side who also wants a piece of her. Again, both stories go about it in different ways.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, both are love triangles. Where what seems to be a "one sided love" turns out not to be so much one sided as the female protagonist thought. read more

All characters have extremely similar personalities, and the love triangle is also very similar (the serious guy with issues, the guy who becomes a friend but teases the girl and has a hate-love relationship with her, and the goody goody protagonist) so if you like one, you´ll like another.  read more

If you liked Strobe Edge you should check out Nanoka no Kare and I think you will find it even better.     The  girls in each go after the guy she likes, but the female lead in Nanoka  is a strong straightforward sort of girl and I liked her better as a heroine in many ways, while the female lead in Stobe Edge also really wants to win the guy.   They each feature drama, and romance and triangles, with breakups.  The male leads are more competitive in Nanoka no Kare.    If you liked the story in Stobe Edge you will probably like Nanoka no Kare and I think you will like the female lead more.   The guys in Nanoka no Kare are well drawn and appealing to shoujo fans.
