The similarities between the two are present throughout the entire series, but appear more prominently in the movie. Both are fundamentally about the construction of an ideal self, a persona that is shown to the world, while concealing internal feelings and the true self. Both show romance as a struggle for similarly ambitious minds, finding resolution through authenticity. One is shoujo while the other is seinen, but both are romantic comedies with a dose of drama and just as much wit as their leads, and a supporting cast that is multifaceted and interesting enough as to not let the two leads become overbearing.

If Hiroshi Kamiya ranting about the absurdities and logical inconsequences of Japanese society and humanity in general sounds like your idea of fun, both series are right up your alley. The protagonist also plays a similar role in both series, being a reluctant helper for the bunch of dysfunctional beings that in turn make him find his human side.

Both shows are quite similar including (but not limited to) the similarities between Jahy and Satania. Both present similar styles of humor, mostly based on the contrast between the supposed role of the characters and their actual standing. Both develop slowly, though Jahy has more of a driven storyline and Gabriel Dropout depends more on its ensemble cast.

While differing on style and presentation, both shows revolve around the study of creative disciplines (either theatre or magic) in specialized schools that encourage competition. Both feature an underdog protagonist and a perfectionistic rival, with the two of them being inspired by a performance seen during childhood. Both are ultimately allegorical works, as their battle or adventure oriented plots represent the struggles in competition and refinement that are characteristic of the artistic field.
