Many romcoms share similar likenesses, so I could probably list others that match up decently like Chuunibyou, Golden Time, and even Yahari Ore no Seishun and such which others have listed. But I found these two to be similar because of the MC's dynamic/forced relationship with a main girl while the MC's crush is a different person.
Both also have typical things like "beach" episodes, romantic tension that occurs during scenes of the MC and female protagonist (though Nisekoi has a bit more romantic tension in its scenes). Both are also comedies and have tsundere leads.
The difference is that Nisekoi turns into a harem fairly quickly

Romantic comedies - Nisekoi and Toradora define them with a main male protagonist trying to get attention of a girl they have set their eyes on. Unfortunately, circumstances often gets in their way. On the other hand, the main male protagonist gets into an unlikely alliance/relationship with another girl who has her own interests.
There is plenty of drama, comedy, and romance offered in both series. Perhaps the most prominent feature involves relationships the main male protagonist forms with others throughout the series.
Similarities / Differences
- Lead characters have almost same personality
- Both animes have great humor
- Awesome lovable characters
- Great Endings
Differences
- Nisekoi is slightly towards more on comedy
- You have to read the Nisekoi manga to finish story
- Its Harem

Main characters have a similar start, by becoming acquainted, in Toradora they get close to help each other with their crushes, in Nisekoi they are faking a relationship without really knowing each other and in both they become more friendly and their feelings change later on in the story.
The main characters in both series have similar personalities.

Very much same situation. One guy likes a different girl, but can't get with them for reasons. Some sort of violence is invloved.
Both have a male protagonist who starts out as a "nobody" , and with the help of a female character/ characters finds friends and love

-Blue haired protagonist
-Both like to say ''Soka'' and ''ohh'' (Ryūji says it 40 times as more)
-Both the girl are alike
More drama in Toradora and more comedy in Nisekoi
note: I personally like Nisekoi best
Both are romantic comedies with the main characters in similar positions; coming from families that may give off a sense of fear to fellow classmates. Nevertheless, Nisekoi is also full of hilarious moments, loveable and similar characters, and lots of romance drama!

Both have a male protagonist that likes her classmate for a long time, but gets involved with a different girl instead. Raku and Ryuuji has similarities with their personalities, and Chitoge and Taiga as well. Basically, both anime series are great, and both have romance and whole lots of comedy.

Both of these anime are romantic comedies. In both, there are two main love interests: Taiga and Minori in Toradora and Chitoge and Onodera in Nisekoi. Both also have a third minor interest with the same dual personality trait, Ami in Toradora and Tachibana in Nisekoi.
Same cliché school comedy/romance in which basically every female friend of the main character falls in love with him in some way, shape or form.
Takasu Ryuuji = Ichijou Raku
Aisaka Taiga = Kirisaki Chitoge
Kushieda Minori = Onodera Kosaki
Kawashima Ami = Tachibana Marika
Similarities
-Both have a tsundere lead
-Both "Rom-Coms"
-Similar Humor
Differences
-Harem
-Has a tiny bit of fan service

These shows have a lot of similarities. The characters and the story are pretty much the same, also they are pretty much cliche. Toradora being more dramatic and you have way more feels, whereas Nisekoi focuses more on the comedy. If you liked one of these shows you'll probably like the other.
This show follows pretty much the same dynamic as Toradora, two main characters forced to hang out with each other but ultimately fall in love with eachother. The animation style is pretty much the same and it kinda follows the same story and dialog than in Toradora.
They are both about blue haired guys that can cook and have always crushed on certain girls but then they encounter tsunderes which they forge an alliance with. Both also have girls that have a thing for the main character, but you aren't really led to believe have a chance with him, and so are kind of just there to mix things up a bit. They also are similar in the fact that the main characters and tsunderes are shipped right from the start, but there isn't really any tension there, but then things change somewhat eventually.

As you watch the shows the similarities become blatantly apparent, and in a very good way. I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed both shows, however, in my opinion, Toradora is still better. If you are looking for a show to fill the empty void Toradora left in your soul then Nisekoi should do the job.
Both shows have Tsundere Main characters. Both shows have beautiful art/animation styles. Both shows have great characters and chemistry between characters. Both shows have great dialogue.
However, Toradora has a dub and Nisekoi does not. Toradora actually finishes its story and Nisekoi does not (you have to read the manga). Also,

Both shows are romantic comedies that follow the relationships between high school students. In the case of Toradora, it's the romance born of two students helping to form one another's desired relationship; for Nisekoi, a relationship used to bond rival organisations, which grows to a more endearing bond. While the characters borrow VERY similar character tropes (a wealthy, blond-haired tsundere and a short-haired son of a criminal with an affinity for cooking and cleaning), each and every character for both respective shows stand out.
The shows help to differentiate from one another through a tighter focus on either of two aspects: romance or comedy. Toradora favors

Well both of them are Romantic Comedy revolving around a guy character with two heroines plus an another girl. Well both are good and didn't sexualized the character that much.
If you liked the characters from one of these 2 shows then you will like the other one. The core characters in both anime are really similar in personality and the role they play. The story also has bit similar taste.

These 2 animes are good romcoms that involve a male being forced to form a partnership of some sort with a female tsundere. The characters themselves are also very alike. Raku & Ryuuji, Onodera & Minori, Chitoge & Taiga, and Tachibana & Kawashima.

Maybe it's just me, but the feeling I had watching Toradora! in 2020, was something like the same feeling I had while watching Nisekoi in 2015, a pure and happy feeling, something like nostalgia and freedom maybe? I can't explain, but I think that if you liked Nisekoi, you'll (mostly) like Toradora!
They both have a amle lead who spend most of their time with a girl who isn't their crush. The female leads are both tsunderes. The main difference is that while Toradora! develops into a romance drama, Nisekoi: False Love remains a pure romance comedy, and becomes a harem.
Pretty much the same sort of relationship you'd fine between the characters and i genuinely like the characters from Nisekoi better. The romance Nisekoi is also a lot faster than in Toradora
Both animes have pretty similar main characters. Tsundere girl, that at the beginning hates male MC, but as the story progresses she develops romantic feelings for him. There is also a kind of harem in both Toradora! and Nisekoi. Minori can be compared to Onodera (the main character likes her and she also has feelings for him but is too shy(?) to confess). Ami is like Tsugumi and Marika, she develops romantic feelings toward MC, however without return. Both animes are really enjoyable and have many comedy scenes. Both animes have a wholesome ending, however, you need to read the manga to get the ending

Both feature a tsundere female character and a friendly male character who appears to hate each other but slowly fall for each other when they spend more time with each other.

chitoge, the main female lead in nisekoi, also has similar personality traits (tsundere wise) as taiga from toradora. while nisekoi is more of a romance, harem show (toradora being drama, romance), if you really enjoy tsundere characters, nisekoi is also another great show to watch if you loved toradora. there is also another underrated tsundere character later in the season for nisekoi so keep an eye out for that!
