Both girls are taken care about by the elder men. And there is also some mobile staff in "Taiyou no Ie" takes places, but not the same way as it does in "Dengeki Daisy" 

reportRecommended by Sony_Plastation

Dengeki Daisy and Taiyou no Ie doesn't seem too similar at first. However, the connection between the main characters are similar in terms of their relationship. For instance, the main guy plays the role of a guardian and oversees a younger girl's will being. There is development in their relationship that explores a variety of themes. Family is one of those prominent issues that is realistic and has cleverly presented.

I love Dengeki Daisy. I've been reading it since it came out, and I finally brought myself to read the last chapters. After finishing that manga, I was convinced I would never fall in love with a manga like I did Dengeki Daisy. Taiyou no Ie is lacking the cell phone, hacking business that was central to the plot of Dengeki Daisy, and as a result is a lot more realistic to the point of being "Slice of Life". Not that I'm complaining, it's an enjoyable, more relaxing read. No one's life is ever at stake,Taiyou no Ie is just (fairly) normal people doing (fairly) normal things. Both Taiyou and Dengeki have the "forbidden" love of a underage girl and a older man. The female MC has family issues, and the male MC has some other hang-ups in both. And as a bonus, both are completed! So, if you have the time, you can binge read whichever one you want in a day or so. (Please send help this is getting out of hand) read more

- Age gap done right, great relationship between the leads.
- TnI is more wholesome and realistic, DD is more serious with the hacker business since people get injured and lives are at stake.
- Closely related to family.
- A mobile is relevant in some way.
- Little (TnI) to none (DD) love triangle crap.
- Character development comes first, romance comes second.
- Beautifully drawn.
- Might need tissues.

There is a similar feeling of not having a place in your own family that both main leads carry. Both characters find new places of warmth and caring but it leaves them even more aware of how lonely they are. Each series is heavy on family drama and it's handled in a noticeably mature way.

Watashi ni xx Shinasai! addpermalink

Very similar, two siblings loving the same girl, the girl happens to lack friends, girl hides that she's writing a novel, and both pretty darn good! 

However, Watashi ni xx Shinasai! focused a lot more on the novel aspect whereas in Taiyou no Ie the focus is nowhere near as much. Personally, I love both the same but I'd definitely suggest giving Watashi ni xx Shinasai! a read!

Hajimari no Niina addpermalink

Both of these are a romance with an age difference in which the heroine is younger, has a secret, and spends a great deal of time pining after the hero. Both stories are driven by romance, but many chapters center on family and other relationships. They both have a mealoncholy-sweet air. They are sweet shoujo with a sad undertone. In HnN the hero's first love has died, in TnI both protagonists are dealing with their families being split apart.

Taking on a ordinary story with a slice of lie tone, Horimiya and Taiyou no Ie displays a sense of innocence with its story and characters. Relationship dynamics became a key focus although the pacing remains slow. The main male protagonists from both series also have similar personalities. And on top of that, expect some romance that blooms as their story progresses with a charming elegance.

Taking care of a kid isn't easy. Both series has a realism feel in relating to parenting. There's comedy, drama, and even romance involved throughout their perspective stories. Along with that, we learn more about the characters through their interactions.

In both manga, the atmosphere is lighthearted and gives a similar feeling. It details the life of a main male protagonist and a young girl that certainly came into his life. They began living together and has a strange relationship.

At many instances, there is inklings of romantic moments as well some other tense scenes. It still retains its lighthearted genre with the drama, comedy, and obstacles they deal with in every day life. In fact, it follows a slice of life style of expressing its story.

Both series also has natural artwork.

Shoujo manga that share a similar general premise:  an unwanted high school girl finds a home with a kind young man who cherishes the idea of a family.  There's some uneasiness from mixed signals between romance and more platonic/family feelings or teasing/not being taken seriously due to age.

Blood Alone addpermalink

These two series are all about that fluffy lovey-dovey goodness between a younger girl and her older brother figure living under one roof. The girls are both mature beyond their age but still prone to making cheeky, princess type demands. The guys are unconditionally affectionate over their long, dark, straight-haired loli counterparts but are also (intentionally and unintentionally) keeping them at a distance.

Mahoutsukai no Yome addpermalink

A lonely girl and a lonely man who takes her in. Romance ironically buds from both couples' efforts in shedding their co-dependence. The heavy inking and Gothic undertone perpetually paints Mahoutsukai no Yome in a shade of melancholy, while hope always feels just around the corner in the warm and tender world of Taiyou no Ie.

Tsuiraku JK to Haijin Kyoushi addpermalink

This is a similar styled romance manga. While the settings and characters are different, at the core they are about a romance between a high school girl and an older man. So a lot of the drama centers around that negative stigma and the character dancing around the boundaries of what is appropriate. 

Even deeper is the similarity about finding one's place in the world. In Taiyou no Ie, Mao needs to find the value of family and what familial love means. In JK, its about loners finding someone who would miss them if they were gone and puts their interests first.

Meiji Hiiro Kitan addpermalink

Taiyou no Ie and Meiji Hiiro Kitan are both heartwarming stories with well considered and deep characters. They both tell the story of a younger, lost girl who is taken into the home of a considerably older male love interest. 

The main difference is probably in the level of realism. Taiyou no Ie is set in the present day and is more plausible. Meiji Hiiro Kitan is set in a romanticized Meiji era and the female protagonist's drawn age is too young to suit her personality or to allow the romance to be at all feasible.

I find the female protagonists of these two stories to be quite similar. They are both introspective girls who desire affection and to express themselves better, and they look similar as well. Both stories also have a similar air of thoughtfulness and measured pacing throughout. Despite both stories being focused on romance - they each deal with more broad and deep themes: Family in the case of Taiyou no Ie and Mortality in the case of Inu x Boku SS. Not your typical shoujo.

The Friendly Winter brings me feelings similar to those I had reading Taiyou no Ie, and I was wondering why they both bring those feelings. Well, both have a heated and melancholy atmosphere, but their biggest points in common is that both also have a very similar theme about abandonment, loneliness and especially about family. This makes Mao (the protagonist of Taiyou no Ie) and Da-Jeong (the protagonist of The Friendly Winter), even though they are different in their personalities, also very similar.

There isn't much similarity between these two mangas. But the main lead characters share the similar bond of "brother-sister" who aren't actually related.

Both manga shares the similar heartwarming atmosphere and themes surrounding family and the warmth of a home. Being a shoujo manga, Taiyou no Ie has a strong romance element in it. On the other hand, Ohayou Toka Oyasumi Toka lacks romance and focuses on the family drama. If you enjoy Taiyou no Ie because of the family aspect of it, then I'd recommend picking up Ohayou Toka Oyasumi Toka. Likewise, if you enjoy Ohayou Toka Oyasumi Toka but wished for something with more romance, I'd recommend reading Taiyou no Ie.

While there's not that many surface similarities between these two titles, I'm here today to bring you the most rare of mal recommendations, one that connects things together by actual enjoyment of the work and not because they both have redhead protagonists or something else pointless. 

These are two of the best modern Shoujo manga I've read, and the refreshing nature of the stories not being just the same "stupid girl falls for bad boy who verbally abuses her but he's actually really nice guys" can be felt in both manga, you can feel it in the difference between the male leads and the protagonists themselves, who remind me a lot of each other in how brash they are compared to most shoujo romance with their more demure leads.

If you enjoyed one of these, it seems very possible you would enjoy the other, I certainly did. read more

So she falls inlove with him, but his family is all problematic because his parents died and his sibling's went off to live with relatives. Both sad mangas because of their situations.
