Both manga have a bubbly style and friendship between women as a theme. Kuragehime is more purehearted, but Kageki Shoujo is also very emotionally real about the feelings girls have for each other. 

Both girls have a love interest who is a kabuki actor. In Kageki Shoujo, since she couldn't enter the kabuki world she's entered the flower troupe world instead. In Pin to Kona, she is attending normal high school and is caught up in a kabuki love triangle. 

Skip Beat may be shoujo to Kageki Shoujo's josei, but they both explore friendship between girls as they enter the theater world.
