Club Sapan Fine Season 2 Episode 2 (Odd-Numbered Love) and My Mate Match both have a love triangle plot and are Thai BL (gay romance) dramas. Both have humour and seriousness to them. Definitely worth watching one if you liked the other.

Both dramas have a similar feel and pacing. Both have a strong FL that is used and discarded by husband/fiancée and then fights to rebuild a life that is not dependent on others. Along the way , both FLs create a support structure and community with other women. MLs are almost adjacent characters put supportive and romance is slow.

Both deal with a young man learning they have a disease. While Kyo no Hi wa Sayonara is more about the mc and his family, Yuuki is about the mc and his friends.

Both series have a very strong Bromance bromance theme and humor. Stand by Me is mostly republican mystery/drama/comedy whereas Towards the Truth is more ancient mystery with supernatural and not specifically mentioned as comedy, though I find parts funny.

The female lead in gear me: our summer has a lot in common with twinkling watermelons male lead, and the male lead in hear me to the female lead in twinkling watermelon. While hear me doesnt have any relation to time skip, it has the same comfort vibes as twinkling watermelon. It has a much more mature aura but both are a fun watch

The main characters are either part of the yakuza or have connections with gang members. Both are quite brutal and have a noir vibe. In both stories, the detective tries to collaborate with yakuza or gang members to prevent further bloodshed and the expansion of narcotics trade routes. Both portray the story of rising through the ranks of a gang.

Both shows tackle characters coming to terms with their identities and feelings for one another while finding comfort in another person. They both deal with characters who struggle with things beyond their control.

While Miseinen primarily focuses on the characters high school years who struggle with their home lives/parental expectations, The Eighth Sense follows two university students and focuses more on mental health/living as an adult. (This is my thoughts ofc. I'm being very loose on the themes here...)

Both shows made me cry and felt like they covered pretty heavy subject matter. Which is why Miseinen reminded me of The Eighth Sense. ^_^
