Can't believe this hasn't been done. Both of the semes are arrogant romance novelists and both stories are extremely funny, though Junjou isn't quite as insane as Gravitation.

The stories are similiar when you look at the personages (writing love stories and such).
Note; when you take the length of the stories in consideration you'd know you'd like Junjou Romantica when your fond of Soft Romantic. Don't think so the other way round though. Reading would go downhill that way.

Both are yaoi and very interesting. Crimson Spell involves some fantasy while Junjo Romantica does not. But both mangas are truly unique and enjoyable.

I actually just realized this after I finished Empty Heart. The approach to each story is different, but the way they unfold and carry on are quite similar.
Both seme's in the story are named 'Usami' (though that isn't the half of it). Takumi (the story's uke) is in love with his teacher, Jun Usami. Takumi has an older brother named Ryuuta., who Usami is in love with (mirrored to Usami being in love with Misaki's brother Takahiro in Junjo).
(I'll refer to Junjo's 'Usami' as Usagi now to avoid confusion.)
The approach to both are different. Takumi looks exactly like his brother and seduces Usami into sleeping with him, while Misaki only starts going out with Usagi after an incident with Takahiro (which I'll explain). Both Usami and Usagi fall in love with Takumi and Misaki after events subside. The other similarity is that Ryuuta has no idea that Usami was in love with him and gets married later on, as does Takahiro without knowing how Usagi felt. Both older brothers are protective of their younger brother.

For one thing, the main story is about a relationship between an author and a student. The author (seme) usually makes it a point that he pleases his lover and most of the time, woos him with colorful words. Also, said author always has this outrageous fantasies with and about his lover which gives the younger lover sort of a freaked vibe. Although the story in Junjou Romantica is a bit deeper and longer, Sakka, Dorei wo Kau (Author's Pet) gives off the feeling of sweetness just like the first manga.
If you did like one or the other, I would strongly suggest that you read the other. They're both so sweet, they give you cavities.

in the beginning of yume you get the same feel as junjo. Yume has less comedy than junjo but the same heatwarming chars. If you loved junjo than this is a must read as well

If you liked Nowaki and Hiroki's arc, then you might be interested in Aisaretaino. Though their talents vary, the love story is similar. You got the talented Hakamada who's in love with Izaki, who of course doesn't know this. Izaki, like Hiroki, is unaware of Hakamada's effort to be equal to him even though he is talented in everything he does. I'd spoil everything if I continue so check it out, it's only five chapters.

Both manga are by Nakamura Shungiku. The Marukawa Shoten shoten in Sekaiichi Hatsukoi is the same Marukawa Shoten in Junjou Romantica. Iwaka from Junjou Romantica also appear in Sekaiichi Hatsukoi many times as a suporting character. Basically, they are in the same universal world.

Also written by Shungiku Nakamura.

Both shounen-ai of course! And also the same idea of having one actual gay guy and another reluctant at first, but then gives in guy.Junjo Romantica is a bit ruder than Kissing but they've both got some good guy on guy action!
