Both deal with characters who find something they need (a reason to walk, how to live, etc.) from someone else. They both do this in a mature and sensible way despite the potential taboo that comes from dealing with age gap relationships/friendships. The characters feel grounded and real, and takle serious issues in Japanese culture. While My Boy isn't as romantic as Garden of Words (Thats actually a good thing) it still packs enough emotion that even though it will most likely end bittersweet, you will want to see it through anyway.

Both maturely and sensibly deal with potentially romantic scenarios between two lost individuals of different age groups. Its an incredibly hard thing to pull off, something title's like Bunny Drop got right at the beginning but fail near the end. Both Slice of Life pieces which are enjoyable to read, and never feel out of place even with its central theme.

SPOILER ALERT FOR MAQUIA Maquia and Wolf Children both deal with the hardships, struggle, love and care through the fantasy genre of mothership and maternal love. Where as Wolf Children's conflict comes through Hana having to raise 2 impossible children who possess both human and wolf traits, Maquia shows the relationship between an immortal girl raising a child who is inherently not her own. Both seem almost majestic by showing what is essentially at its core a grounded and heart felt relationship between mother and children, with the struggles of growing up, yet also being set in a believable fantasy world. If you love Wolf Children, or want a realistic fantasy to cry at again, you owe it to yourself to see Maquia.
