I always felt the main character (Haine) was like Tohru, optimistic, clumsy, lovable, loyal. She always appeared happy and warm to her friends but she was facing an internal conflict. With her opitimism she cheers the Student Council. She also was an average student, but worked hard at after school jobs, dense. In the story she helps a boy who also faces family problems (no spoilers) and she turned his unhappy, dark ways, and made him see the light and he protected her. In my opinion he wasn't really a part of the family, like Kyo who was not a part of the Soma family (forgive me if I spell this wrong) because he was born the year of the Cat. Both men in my opinon have a temper, but lighten up after they meet that girl. Both the characters have family problems due to the family and the family system they are involved in.
I read this and I thought "This is a lot like Fruits Basket!"
The plots are definately different, but the main characters' personalities almost mirror each other.
Kyou/Takanari look like they hate the main character, Tohru/Haine, but later on, they come to love her. They are also both characters that try to act cool. Tohru and Haine are very clumsy, kind characters, that can make friends with a lot of people.
I also think they look a lot like each other. :P
Most of the characters reminds me of the ones in Fruits Basket! [not only in exact looks, but somewhat character as well]
Kyo and the main guy from Shinshi Doumei Cross
Tohru and the main girl
Shigure and the rich father
Tohru's friend with wavelength powers and the main girl's best friend
Trust me, both stories are good and if you read both you would see the similarities as well :D

-Both by Arina Tanemura
-Comedy
-Romance
-Very enjoyable
-Page turner
The best and most mature works of Arina Tanemura. Expect the usual gorgeous and shiny art, love triangles, tsundere guys, sexy kisses, and the drama-romance-comedy mix. Full Moon is overall better than SDC for its plot and realism, but both manga are truly enjoyable and good, have a nice cast of characters, and have some really touching chapters/scenes.
Written by the same manga-ka, Shinshi Doumei Cross embodies the artwork that drew me in to Full Moon wo Sagashite from the very beginning. Both storylines have the same underlying theme and include similarities between character personalities. Lots of cuteness, random angry boys, and plenty of crossdressing make this series a must-read.

Plots are similar though do have there differences.
I would say more about them though that would be giving away everything. Please just trust me.
Note: Moe Kare is for an older audience.
Wow, both stories were great =)
And Well for one, both deal with twins [Same relation as well, same father - different mothers] One that seems really nice, while the other seems bad/lonely (and he therefore hates his good twin)
And That same bad/lonely meets the girl, falls in loves her (even improve themselves bc of her), but she devotes her love to the other twin. Both try to win her love. She falls in love with that twin because of his efforts =D

Have the same elite grp sch thingy (rich kids , super clever kids), nice drawing and some love and comedy invovled
Special would mostly be similar with Shinshi Doumei Cross, since it also has the richness and the influential people in the story, and with the genre also of romance is also present...the outgoing personality also of the lead characters and all and the illustrations also are very good

Both main characters are entering a school which highly recognizes standards (pedigree), and they are depreciated for this reason. There is also a bit of sibling rivalry in both plots.

Here are two stories about a girl in an elite school who doesn't fully belong, with lots of hot guys surrounding her and so on

sakura hime kaden and shinshi doumei cross are very different but very alike at the same time. while sakura is a princess to be married at 14 haine is a a girl who was given instead of a 50 million yen debt. both are entertaing and twisting. since shishi doumei cross is the first one out, if you liked it you would definetly like sakura hime kaden. i promise.

Both have an adopted female protagonist, kuudere girls, white-haired people, and a bishounen whose name is Senri. Both are set in a school for rich or special people (in VK there’s the Night Class/Day Class division, while in SDC there are 3 different power levels). In both there’s a VIP guy who’s basically the king of the school (and who’s adored by the female protagonist): Kaname, a pure blood, in VK, and Shizumasa/Takanari, the Emperor, in SDC. Plus: the school uniforms are initially similar (the SDC ones change later): black&white with red ribbon/tie; the word “Cross”: the school’s and female protagonist’s name in VK, and in SDC the title of the manga itself.

These two stories are also very different, but in both, heroines are very strong and the romance is beautiful, so if you like one, you'll probably like the other.
|

In both the female protagonist is disputed between 2 brothers... except that in Georgie they're her own step-brothers.
Both are pretty good series which have plenty of romance and drama.
|

The two series are very similar being that both heroines are strong willed and stubborn. They fight against the odds. The two girls also look very similar. ^_^;
The main male lead in both series are are also mysterious and are pushing themselves away from the heroine. Plus they're both at the top of the power pyramid. :P

Both stories involve a club that is the Student council.
Otokamae is more layed back and has a school romance feel
Shinshi is more dark and twisted

Lots of people I know who like one of these series, always likes the other. At first glance, Shugo Chara! and Shinshi Doumei Cross are really...not very similar at all. One is mahou shoujo, the other is without any fantasy at all. The ages of the characters are also, very different.
But the Guardians and the Student Council are sort of similar. Both are filled with people with really fun personalities. In fact, one of the characters in each have a very similar secret~!
It seems strange recommending this when the other seems so different. But really, from my experience, if you enjoy one, you'll likely enjoy the other.

Same autor. Haine is exactly like Maron and ShizumasaTakanari are exactly like Chiaki in their looks but Takanari is more like him in the character. SDC has no magic in it but the same as KKJ it has a wonderful love story.

Both series feature girls who act cheerfully despipe having a difficult home life. The main guys are both Tsundere types, and each heroine has a well to do and pocessive best friend.

Rozen Maiden and Shinshi Doumei Cross both have a fancy aura.
They both involve a would-be lady helping a poor angsty shut-in.

High school club life; both private schools with a girl who doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the club.
