Nana and Kuragehime has an unique sense of fashion. They both adapt a series where the main female character enter an industry with a passion for what they love. Throughout both series, there is development in both the story, their goals, and even relationships with others. Romance is portrayed as realistic in Nana while Kuragehime has more humorous gags. Both series are also well known for their appealing dialogues with a variety of emotions.
They say opposites attract! And that’s certainly true of the friendships in both of these series. In Kuragehime, quiet, jellyfish-otaku Tsukimi befriends cross-dressing fashionista, Kuranosuke; whilst in Nana, cutesy, boy-crazy Komatsu Nana finds an unlikely bond with punk-rocker Osaki Nana.
The female characters in these series are really easy to relate to, as they each have foibles and quirks which make them seem more real. Both series also have characters with forms of Anxiety. Osaki Nana suffers with panic attacks, and Tsukimi (along with some of the other Amamizukan residents) has some social anxiety.
The series’ plots also have a somewhat ‘fish out of water’

So both are romance themed stories have a good amount of focus on fashion and style, and both focus characters who are like the opposites of each other, yet they become friends overtime. And both are focused on characters who are involved in a industry they are very deterimined to make it in as well too.

Princess Jellyfish deals with polar opposite female characters as well, except in princess Jellyfishes's caseit blossoms into sort of a romance. There is however a lot of joy and humour regarding the women's different relationships and how they build on each other strengths and weaknesses.
