Whilst being two completely different storylines....they both share alot of common elements and plot lines.....If you like one, you will definately like the other...most recommended!
I find Hyuuga Natsume very similar to Sohma Kyo. Abused, an outcast (in a way), and "different." Also, they're rude at first, but later on, they softened up and changed in various ways. Sakura Mikan is also quite similar to Honda Tohru. An airhead, and simple-minded. She's also the "key" or the "cure" to Natsume (in Fruits Basket, Tohru was Kyo's cure). Of course, I wouldn't leave Nogi Ruka behind. He's similar to Sohma Yuki because he's gentle and admirable. He and Natsume are opposites, like Yuki and Kyo are, although the relationship between Kyo and Yuki is nowhere near Ruka and Natsume's.

The heroines, Mikan (in GA) and Tohru (in Furuba) are both natural airheads, yet they try their absolute hardest to succeed in whatever they do and are the "hope" of everybody around them. They're hard people to hate and even if someone in the story disliked them at first, they end up liking them. Both girls fall for (and eventually get) the guy who caused them the most trouble but who also has always been there for her, despite being the cliche tsundere type.
Both start out as light, comedic and heartwarming, and evolve into very dark-toned and serious plots that keep pulling you in for

In the beginning of both mangas, it starts off all nice, but there's more to it. They get into more deeper topics. Not to mention, the female main character for both of the mangas are very similar personality wise. Both, in my opinion are very good mangas. Both mangas display problems that occur real life. PFFT, they're just really alike trust me, I feel like a robot trying to write this.
