Similar themes, both are about revenge and a mystery that is about to be untangled. Ikuta Toma also plays one of the main characters in Maou. Also Arashi makes the theme song for both dramas, very strong songs. Both dramas are suspenseful and sad.

If you wanna look at people with horrible hairstyles and sense of style and see a bit of non-committal violence (.. ?! XD) or see someone crash 'cos they don't have their type A license... Search no further.

Both have good music.


the girly variant is more hilarious and includes less defying of physics;
less brawls, more frills

Is it really about something else than fists?

Crows Zero is even more guilty of this than your typical yankee stuff and Rough Cut involves way more of this image than your typical gangster thing.



double gangster-defying-his-boss (by not killing someone and maybe some other stuff) alert
though that's a most superficial similarity

Kamenashi Kazuya is the least they have in common.

Two good shows. That don't just happen in life, they teach a bit about life. A ghost-looking being temporarily transformed into a female almost-socialite. Can get you emotional. About friendship, less, or more. Includes some comedy and some heaviness. The obvious thing - it really is two shows with the 'makeover' premise. NwP has a Mr Popular character and in YNSH there's a four-piece set of downright princes. Kamenashi's character is a partial jerk in both. Both the girls rock as they are. Youth. I just want you to watch both shows.

Differences:
YNSH is a bit more straightforward with the romance (plus there is "supporting love"; but generally, it doesn't feel *that* much like there's more)
while Sunako is kind of annoying, Nobuko is a more pure spirit
what can I say, YNHS has all those skulls and chocolate, NwP has an absolutely wonderful ..alien? called Akira ..
NwP is a bit more serious

Two gothy shows that are more swift-paced than not, with some relative action-action too and obviously with some humour, based on even gothier manga (cue the art). ...

I'm surprised no one recommended it yet.

Maybe lack of gothy mentality? :D



Both heroines are... obstinate. In their own ways.
..
And did I mention cute clothes happen?

Both of them give off a really... *seinen* feeling.
You know, seinenish, that is.
I have no idea how to describe it *sensibly* though.

Both are led by a protagonist who seriously loves food. Accent on the serious. Not to forget that this is pretty much what the respective shows are about. -
18% living a life 10% finding food shops 72% enjoying food vs. 13% humour 37% crime stuff 50% food obsession ...or something like this

they're also both relatively less popular than they should be
and actually really good

-

the biggest difference is *when* you should watch them

Both are about high school students. Both are really good dramas, not really centered around romance. However, there are some cute realitionships in both of them. Angry mom is more darker in my opinion.

The story is different, but in similar events in chronological order, and it shows everything that happened in Korea in that period (70s up to 90s), the same ideas, political activities, regulations, laws, and the style of life......

both movies have a sinister and twisted atmosphere, despite being stylized so appealingly. The leads of these two movies are both beautiful, but at the same time cursed for what they look like. Because of their beauty, both protagonists have extreme mental break downs which are agonizing to watch.

Both have stunningly attractive leads, intense action scenes involving blood, and the same dark and cynical mood. Both movies are perfect to watch on a raining, stormy night.
