Haikara-san ga Tooru Movie 2: Hana no Tokyo Dai Roman
|
Both of these stories have a historical setting in that very interesting period where women wore modernized kimono and sometimes Western (Victorian!) fashions. Both heroines are equally plucky and independent, in love with a soldier. Zakuro's setting has more folklore and fantasy elements, but very similar vibes overall.

Haikara-san ga Tooru Movie 2: Hana no Tokyo Dai Roman
|
A stubbornly plucky heroine who is a borderline tomoboy, of "average" looks, but otherwise impressively talented? Check. Be ready for those melodramatic shoujo plot twists, and for all the male leads to be somehow inclined to help/be in love with our single-minded girl. If you felt Haikara-san was too short and fast paced, treat yourself to Glass Mask.

Marshmallow♡Ecchi
|
The art and mood of both manga are very similar, except Marshmallow Ecchi actually goes all the way. Gorgeous girls, lots of pantyshots, and a somewhat pure hearted and clueless protagonist.

Sundome

B-gata H-kei
|
Both manga feature a sexually forward heroine influencing a below average boy, dragging him along an ecchi journey. Sundome can be more extreme, while BGHK is much more lighthearted, but if you wished for heavier situations, definitely check Sundome out.
