Both Junjou and Kirepapa are great Yaoi series...the art work is beautiful and the characters are hot!
In both series there is a boy x boy relationship.
Now, we should go to the summary...Even, if one man can't admit liking another, he still falls in love with him, but he can't say it. He wouldn't even know that the other person likes boys too. But even that, they still end up liking each other and have a relationship later...
Shounen-ai. BoyxBoy. The stuff, you know.
But that's not the only way the two anime are similiar.
They're handling a pairing (well, Junjo Romantica handles 3 pairings, but I'm talking baout the MAIN pairing) with a huge age different.
Also, they have a lot of comedy elements and contain a lot of chibis/SDs.
Both series are to do with boyxboy relationships. In both series there is a big age difference between the couples. Also if one guy loves the other, the other guy falls back in love with him.
Both have nice art with great use of color. Both also have very attractive guys and light but enjoyable humor.
Its great the couples have a great story and its sweet
Yaoi and a hilarious plot.

Both feature smoking writers who are distant from their families, characters who are afraid to love again, and assertive ukes. After seeing Gravitation, all other BL falls short, but Junjo Romantica is so cute, I think any Gravi fan would enjoy it.
Both animes are typical Shounen-ai. Excuse me for making such an obvious recommendation.
Both show love boys ;)
1 boy has similar character as Shindou (Gravitation) and 2 boy is a writer, he writes romance book as Yuki Eiri (Gravitation).
If you pleased from observing Gravitation, I'm sure that you will be charmed "Junjo Romantica".
The way that the characters act remind me so much of gravitation.
both are shounen-ai romance anime

Two boys living together and one is fighting for his lover!
Relationship between a young male and an older man. Both of the young males try to make excuses saying that they're not in love. Sexual desire for each other. Lots of awkward situations.

Well, they're both BL, but Loveless has less than Junjou. Anyway, I enjoyed them both, so other people might do too ^^
If you're a shounen-ai fan, these are both a must to watch.
Usami's and Misaki's relationship reminds me very much about Soubi's and Ritsuka's: The loving, protecting seme who's unconditionally in love with the uke and have no problem with telling him so, and the denying uke who'd rather throw himself in front of a bus than admitting that he actually loves the seme. They also have the same age gap of about 10 years between them. (Though it doesn't seem as much in Junjo Romantica as in Loveless, where Soubi almost seems to be a pedophile.)

Both shows have a strong homosexual streak through them, with interesting, lively characters. Antique is more based on cakes and dramatic plot whilst Junjou focuses more on it's characters and the whole "Am I gay?" thing. If you like Ono from Antique, you may like Junjou a lot. That being said, if you like Junjou, you may like Ono!
These are targeted towards a western, mature, female audience because of their shounen-ai content that will cause women to squirm, giggle, and gross-out in just one episode. Curiosity is the leading use of the storyline for the viewers as they watch a eloquent group of unrealistically handsome and sexually confused men.

Both are Shonen ai / yaoi... and involve a relationship between two person with a lot age diference
The both series are filled with the worries and insecurity of the uke characters. Whether they are really loved or are just being played with is the main and most important question. The answer is easy to tell and after quite alot of hardships the ending is clear. In both Junjo Romantica and Papa to Kiss in the Dark the characters (no matter what happens) always end up together, so it's the same old happy ending. But I guess it's better off this way!

kawaii >.< ... beautifull art, funny scenes and lovely characters!!!!!!
Close the Last Door and Junjou Romantica tread the same ground: both are romantic yaoi pieces that play the seme/uke dynamics for all they are worth. Comedy abounds as rocky relationships and love triangles take over the plot. Fans of one are extremely likely to enjoy the other.

In Junjo Romantica (yoai) and Strawberry Panic Strawberry (yuri), the characters struggle to obtain/maintain romantic relationships and some of them have tragic pasts.

Both are sweet, a bit silly soft-yaoi animes set in the modern world and focused on the relations between lovers.

Cure and funny, KKM is much lighter, while JR is much straight forward about the relationships between characters

The main character Ranmaru has the same Voice Actor as Hiroki from Junjou Romantica. Their looks are also very similar and they have very close personalities, meaning both characters yell a lot lol.

Gakuen Heaven and Junjou Romantica are yaoi romances set in a school environment. Plenty of humour and fluff dominate both titles. Gakuen Heaven, for all its innuendo, is considerably tame compared to more adult content in Junjou Romantica and both titles offer enough eye candy and comedy to share a common fanbase.

To me, Sukisho is quite similar to Junjou in a few ways.
Very sweet plot. Contains yaoi.
