Both are mystery drama, centering an incident from past. There are also loose similarities between them - most notably on the rate of story progression, character settings and glimpses into the lives (current vs past situations) of main characters. Reverse focuses more on the characters' involvement in the past incident while Gekiryu is more about present time.

same actor (hayato ichihara)
same case, about solving a murder and suspecting every characters until it solved
same directing style, a flashback and a story behind it

Both dramas are about a group of people getting a letter accusing them of having been a part of a murder/suicide which causes them to try and find out who truly killed the person/why the person committed suicide.

If you like never ending suspense like Aishite tatte, Himitsu wa Aru..you will also like Reverse..the suspense is real..even the cliffhanger at the end of each episode makes you want to watch more.. the crime also revealed little by little every episode ^_^

Some of the staff is same and the kind of mystery too, where everyone is made to seem suspicious. The main incident also takes place in the past and gets stirred recently.

Both series have flashbacks from the past and a range of mysteries, which involve multiple characters and someone's death.
