Both movies are about a girl/bunch of highschool students, time Leaping to Sengoku period. Both movies are very similar..................................................

Both are based classic Samurai games.................................................................................

In both dramas the female lead is the the same and has strong chemistry with the male lead.
Both relationships have reasons, why they shouldn't be together. One person has caused the other harm in the past and they need to overcome that.

One of the "Must Know" story of Qing Dynasty's most wicked Empreress Dowager - Ci Xi ( 3 November 1835 - 15 November 1908 ). Empress Dowager Ci Xi by historical records was the Emperor Tong Zhi ( Yong Yan)'s Imperial Concubine and the grandmother of Emperor Xuan Tong (Pu Yi).

This "The Last Emperor" has 2 different choices, it has the longer version the drama and the movie itself. Both are great stories. The Last Emperor foretell the endings of Qing Dynasty. And by historical records, The Last Emperor - Xuan Tong Emperor (7 February 1906 - 17 October 1967) also known as Pu Yi, is the grandson of Emperor Qian Long (Hong Li) in this Ruyi's Royal Love In The Palace. It shown the down falls of Qing Dynasty after Emperor Qian Long (Hong Li) named his successor the 15th son - Yong Yan (Emperor Jia Qing from 13 November 1760 - 2 September 1820). During his reign it was the doomed era of China as opium started to smuggling in and also related to another historical even the marriage of Emperor Jia Qing with Empress Dowager CiXi.

They are similar by:
-one female help a lot in the boys' lives
- similar feel: lots of comedy with a lot of heart.
- she goes through lengths to help the boys she comes to care for.
-There is hinted of romance, but there isn't much (veeeeeeerrrrrry small).
-the female leads do learn from the boys just as much as she helps them.

Difference:
-The female in Gokusen is a teacher while in AND, she is the boys' step-mom.
- The female lead in AND was hesitant at first before accepting them while in Gokusen, she was accepting from the start.

There are relatives in the female leads' families that would do anything to get rid of the female lead. In Hide and Seek it is her Grandmother and in Inheritance, it is her mother-in-law. The difference is that in Hide and Seek, the female lead has backbone from the beginning. While the female lead in AHYI, grows to have a backbone later on.

Similar genre, this is the story of Emperor ShunZhi (15 March 1638 - 5 February 1661 Qing Dynasty) with Empress Xiao Xian or also known as Lady Dong Xiao Wan, later known as Imperial Consort Donggo. By historical records, Emperor ShunZhi is the grand father of Emperor Xiang Long (Hong Li) in this Ruyi's Royal Love In The Palace.

Similar genre, story about a women's life from a princess to an empress, tragedic, romance, historical, political

Slapstick humour, silly, parody, breaking fourth wall. Both are famous epic comedy parody........................

Both movies are comedy about a boy ESPer/psychic wearing glasses. Both are very similar. Both are based on famous manga................

Almost Same period (Forbidden City), very similar clothes but (Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan) seems to have more acurrate sets of clothes and everything.

Similar History!

Same female teacher and younger male student. While chugakusei nikki is more melodramatic, biscuit teacher and star candy is more funny.

Same female teacher and male younger studant dynamic. They fall in love, the girl end everything with their fiancé but people and familly around them are against their relationship.

Has a similar feeling. It's kind of like if you combine the emotions and relationships for Pete/Ae and Tin/Can into one couple you'd get Ai No Kotodama
