Both mangas - involve a guy whose best friend has died and was brough back to life as a girl. -the friend starts falling for the guy while the guy still thinks of them as friends - are comedies that also get sad at points - involve letting go of a past life and moving on as a reincarnation - are shoujos from a male's pespecive - are awesome X)

Nacchattara has the male protagonist change from a male 17-year old into a female first-year elementary schooler as part of surgery to 'bring him back to life'. Return's protagonist also gets killed in a car accident and finds himself in a female body, though Return explains this through spiritual means. They share essentially the same premise, but Return is far more drama-heavy and peppered with comedy elements, while Nacchattara is a light-hearted, comedy-centric manga peppered with drama elements.

Even just by the plot, these two cover very similar ground but in different ways. They both involve a male character dying, with his soul inhabiting a female body. In W!!, this body is his sister whom he knows very well, while in R, it is a complete stranger, and he slowly gains knowledge about the person he's inhabiting. They also deal with a brother/sister complex relationship, although W!! does this in a more humorous way while R uses it as a source of drama. There are kind of similar characters and character relations in both, and they deal with similar themes of grief, regret, family,  read more

Both stories have the same basic plot. Two male best friends, one died and returns by possessing a "suicide" girls body. However the character of the characters are opposites between series.
