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.
