Miss Whirlwind
1. Both RLSR and Love O2O have ML who manipulates circumstances to woo the FL.
In RLSR, the ML first manipulates the FL because of material gain but later he falls in love with her, so he manipulates her into staying with him.
In Love O2O the ML marries the FL in-game after meeting her in RL once. He later manipulates her into meeting him after using the video they made together as an excuse.
2. Both RLSR and Love O2O have ML who only loves the FL. No matter what happens, they only want the FL.
3. Both RLSR and Love O2O have ML who chases the FL first.
The difference is that while Love O2O has a fluffy kind of romance, RLSR has a more turbulent romance. For half the drama the ML just uses the FL to get his money back but it's only after the FL decides to leave him that he realizes that she was more important to him.
While in Love O2O the ML always wanted the FL for himself. So he just did everything to protect her. (The book showed it as a gradual romance but the drama had a besotted hero from start)
*RLSR can have a trigger for some since in this the ML kidnaps the FL and there is forced seduction.
A personal Observation: While both Xiao Nai and Bei Wei Wei wear white showing the innocent kind of Romance in Love O2O, Kong Pope wears a black shirt showing he was the devil. I just found this kind of symbol quite significant.
