Very similar in their setting (adult office romances, with sort-of keeping it a secret). Both are very light-hearted and cute.  

reportRecommended by Leyren

Same vibes, romance comedy with working places, hearthwarming... 

reportRecommended by earfquake_

Both mangas are about two office workers, having a secret romance. While 'Can you keep a secret?' is more revolves around the daily happenings of the office and how our couple manages to improve their relationship while keeping a secret, 'Soap and sweat' has a bit more of a tweak to it. More or less the same setting, but we have an unusual aspect that makes everything so much fun, and sexier at times. The setting is in a soap company, between a man who has a highly keen sense of smell and a woman who has a condition of sweating A LOT and is really conscious about it. For the first time in her life, someone REALLY enjoys her smell.  read more

Both are beautiful and mature workplace romances that are very wholesome. In Both MC and FMC support each other and have a very good reelationship. Sweat and soap is completed and their relationship has reached a much higher place. In Kono Kaisha their relationship has just started and has more room to grow as of now.

Fetiple addpermalink

Fechippuru (or Fetiple as named here on MAL) and Ase to Sekken are both romances which started or partially evolve around fetishes. Fechippuru however does put a big focus on fetishes altogether, with both parts of the relationship as well as family members having different fetishes. In Ase to Sekken it is more subtle, and rather a well fitting with the story.

Asoko de Hataraku Musubu-san addpermalink

- Office romances
- More 'special' subplots (Ase to Sekken = Smell, Musubu = Condoms)
- Wholesome

Danshi Toilet de Machiawase addpermalink

Weirdly Wholesome? But in a good way!
They both had extremely odd (almost fetish) story concepts and sounds like its right out of a romcom. However the art styles combined with its more simplistic approach gives the stories an unsuspecting, but pleasant warmth.
Waning: “Ase to Sekken” is more foe older teens b/c of the more steamy scenes.

Kamibukuro-kun wa Koishiteru addpermalink

Weird characters in a very heartwarming Story. :-) 

reportRecommended by Kleckskind

Servant x Service addpermalink

Both are romantic comedies featuring a female main character who has a complex of some sort. In Servant x Service, Lucy Yamagami has a complex about her long name, and in Ase to Sekken Asako has a complex about how much she sweats. Both female main characters also have glasses and are certainly well-endowed. 

Both male main characters can be gentle and nice, though Hasebe in Servant x Service tends to be more of a tease. Both are light and heartwarming. It is important to note that Servant x Service is a 4-koma, while Ase to Sekken is not.

In Ase to Sekken, there is more of a focus on the romantic comedy aspect, while in Servant x Service, there is both romcom aspects and general slice-of-life in the office atmosphere. read more

Koko kara wa Otona no Jikan desu. addpermalink

If you like some of these mangas, you really should take a look at other too

- Very lovely couples
- The women are shy, insecure, cute, kind and lovely. She works at his boss's company (both girls are afraid of the company discovering about her relationship with her boss, and try so much to hide it)
- The men are kind, handsome, cool, lovely, caring, calm and respectful. He is the boss

- Both mangas have the same vibe, the couple is comfortable next to each other without problems, We can see hot and really cute moments in both mangas

Gomashio to Pudding addpermalink

While the stories and characters are very different, both these mangas are feel-good romance that mainly focus on the relationship of the characters.

Working adults in a more or less healthy relationship. Wotakoi is more comedy, whereas Ase to Sekken has a bit of drama.

Mairimashita, Senpai addpermalink

Both manga focus more on the development of the actual relationship itself, rather than the buildup to it. They both contain heavily mature and responsible relationships, which delve from the usual relationship tropes such as misunderstandings and lack of communication

Majo-senpai Nippou addpermalink

On a scale of how similar Majo Senpai is to Ase to Sekken, I would give it a definite 10 out of 10 (excluding the certain niches they have - one with soap and the other with magic). Both of the female protagonists are shy and they work in the same office as the male protagonists. The male protagonists are very assertive with their feelings as well as they are generally really nice guys and love the female protagonist for all they are. All in all, I would highly suggest this if you like Ase to Sekken.

Veil addpermalink

-Adult & Mature Relationships
-Really empowering main leads
-Big focus on the intimacy between the main two characters.
-Both these works aren't focused on the "honeymoon" phase of a relationship but rather treat one another as each other's best friends.

Bijin Onna Joushi Takizawa-san addpermalink

At a glance, it looks like the series is just some fanservice-ecchi kind but it actually a pretty wholesome romance with a great interaction/development between the mc and fmc.
Both series take place in office and casual places.
Ase to Sekken starts the series where the main characters are in a relationship pretty early in the series while Bijin Onna Joushi Takizawa-san is more of a traditional way but with pretty fast development.

Fujiyama-san wa Shishunki addpermalink

At a glance, it looks like the series is just some fanservice-ecchi kind but it actually a pretty wholesome romance with a great interaction/development between the mc and fmc.
Both start the series where the main characters are in a relationship pretty early in the series.
Ase to Sekken development is focused more on the trauma of fmc while Fujiyama-san wa Shishunki is more about seeing the main characters grow up naturally.

Tada no Renai nanka de Kikkonai: Kojirase Joushi to Fetish na Buka addpermalink

Both are heterosexual romance manga that feature (sex and nudity) a protagonist with a fetish that involves scent.  These two stories both feature a primarily adult cast that takes place in an office.

Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia addpermalink

both series turn their main gimmick into some real and grounded trauma, both focus entirely on the relationship of the main cast and lastly, both are pretty wholesome romance series.

Love and Leashes addpermalink

- Unorthodox and mature romances that are actually very sweet and wholesome (Ase to Sekken is more NSFW)
- Main characters are working adults in the same companies
- They start off with different arrangements before becoming romantically involved (Domme/sub and "product inspiration")
- Loveable supporting/side characters 

reportRecommended by OmaLee

Kuragehime addpermalink

Both are feel-good titles, centering around adults. The main characters are women with little self confidence, but are able to gradually break out of their shell with the help of a peculiar love interest, who helps them flourish by allowing them to embrace their favorite things: jellyfish in Kuragehime, and soap in Ase to Sekken. 
- Kuragehime has a lot of pining, whereas in Ase to Sekken, the lovin' starts immediately
- One might enjoy the impact that their work has on the story
- Adult readers may relate more to the characters

Kekkon suru tte, Hontou desu ka addpermalink

Couple with unusual situation get together. Although ase to sekken is more on the serious side, both of their stories expose readers to fluffy feeling of being in a serious relationship as well as   solving issues of a couple.

Manga: Tonari wa Nani wo Kuu Hito zo: Horoyoi

Tonari wa Nani wo Kuu Hito zo: Horoyoi addpermalink

A smooth, wholesome romance between two adults with jobs is something both these manga provide. The relationships reflect the age of the protagonists (20s) and are handled well. Ase to Sekken is more explicit, with a focus on ML's smell fetish and FL's excessive sweating, but that ultimately adds to the sweetness of their relationship, just as the food does in Tonari. 

reportRecommended by -TACHYON-

Honnou Switch addpermalink

Mature romance manga that are cute, yet can also be quite steamy. Both started with a one night stand that turns into something more. The chemistry between the couples are really good in both manga, relying on their trust and communication for the story progression instead of misunderstandings.
