Well both movies revolve around high school love. The heroines both have something that prevents them from being your average, cutesy high school girl.
Also I think both movies have similar photography/aesthetics (or something); both are colorful, somewhat wacky (pink classrooms, over the top clothing, strange places, etc) with weird characters popping out out of the blue for comic relief (also similar humor).
Lovely Complex (2006)
Similars
Kimi ni Todoke and Lovely Complex both contain various romance, school, and friendship scenarios. Throughout both movies the main character finds out what real love is about.
they both based on manga, and the both lead actress on the movie have same traits lol xD
Both are romance movies based off of Manga/anime
Miyu and Shuya are high school students. They have dated for 2 years. Miyu and Shuya have a promise that no matter what, they will watch a movie together on the first day of each new month. When Miyu and Shuya are on their way to the movie theater, Shuya suddenly cancels their date. Shuya seems like he is hiding something and he acts nervous. Later, Miyu goes to the place where she is supposed to meet Shuya, but she witnesses Shuya getting into a car accident. She panics, but when she wakes up she finds herself on the morning of the accident. Miyu keeps waking up on the day when Shuya got into an accident.
Main plot Height difference. Same theme, similar stories, different perspectives.
both had the "extremely" tall female lead, and "extremely" short male lead that end up partnered together, which adds to their self consciousness, and the story follows them as they try to grow
- High difference
- Friends to lovers
- Very cute and fluffy
in Lovely Complex the ML is the shorter one.
same feel of comedy and directing style
both manga based
high school rom-com
both movies have the female lead really love or pursue the male lead
It is based of a manga and they both have been animes before live actions
