The protagonists are re-incarnated into a pseudo-medieval setting and use their real-world knowledge to make the other world more efficient, impressing those around them. They're competent; skilled in their respective professions of the real world. They're hard-working, one driven by the desire to work, the other to earn money, but dedicated nonetheless. The deutergonists are alike too; powerful knights who protect the main characters. Overall, similar isekais with one having a romantic aspect to it and the other with strong bromance (they're very shippable).

They also assume other people could do their job quicker and efficient than they can but in reality they are the only one who can and with great speed.

Both series explore concepts of life and death, what it means to live and finding purpose in life.

While "She Loves to Cook" is a more optimistic fully fledged romance, "Boisterous meal" can get quite depressing and is more so about platonic love between a trio of friends. Both however remain hopeful that either the world or the characters themselves can change for the better and lead a happy life.

You got this normal world while actually there are aliens, hacks, parallel universes or stuff that people are not aware of. * Both have creepy and weird elements in story and art that matches it. E.g. objects having human appearances. Both are targeted at Seinen audience after all. As for differences Gantz (finished series) was more edgy/fanservice and action, Bug Ego (new series) has more comedy and mystery solving (at least for now, some edgy elements are there in later chapters). Anyways, if you're in it for the vibe of similar series you might check them out.

In contrast, World's End Harem focuses on a post-apocalyptic scenario where men are rare, and their reproductive value is central, often with a more provocative, fanservice-heavy and lustful approach. While both challenge conventional societal dynamics, Ooku offers a more thoughtful story.

Grappler Baki
Both of these series have quite a lot in common, both are very long running manga franchise spilt up into many different parts which both started in the 90s and are still ongoing. Both series involve a mix of tournament fighting and street fighting, and both franchises also revolve around the relationship between a freakishly powerful father and their son who strives to surpass them. However, while Baki and his father Yujiro are enemies, Tough's Kiichi and Seiko have a very close and loving relationship with Seiko lovingly mentoring his son Kiichi but needing to put them through harsh trials so Kiichi can have any hope of bearing the harsh burden of being the next successor to their family's martial art, the mystical art of life and death, the Nadashinkage Syle. While both series revolve around brutal battles that mix over-the-top action with deceptions of realistic techniques, Tough leans much heavier into mysticism with far more frequent supernatural elements and certain characters who utilize a chi-like magic system, while later on in the franchise sci-fi elements start being introduced. Yet despite all this, both Baki and the Tough Franchise retain a focus on martial arts no matter how outlandish the story gets.

The Greatest Estate Developer
Besides both being Manhwa's, these two series have a lot in common. Both main characters are brought into a world of a story that they just finished reading. Furthermore, they both ally with the story's original MC, who is considered in both to be much more attractive than the MC we follow. The stories are quite similar in that, both MCs do their best to make use of their knowledge of the story's future in order to get the upper hand. Both MCs also come off as selfish, but are actually very moral and care deeply for others, but neither are afraid to do what needs to be done to the villains. They do have their differences, though. While Omniscient Reader is more of a power fantasy, Estate Developer is more about the MC using his knowledge of engineering to improve the world he's in. Omniscient Reader is also less of an isekai since technically, the world he's living in is still our modern world, but with fantasy elements added, while Estate Developer is more of the classic "sent to another world" isekai. Omniscient Reader is also a bit more serious than Estate Developer which doesnt take itself very seriously most of the time, but can be surprisingly deep at times.

Akuyaku Reijou no Naka no Hito: Danzai sareta Tenseisha no Tame Usotsuki Heroine ni Fukushuu Itashimasu
Both stories share a theme of the fl being cunning and strong even if it's in different ways. While Remilia is strong with her power and mind Scarlet is strong with brute force (though she is a little clueless at times) Both stories are feature revenge, though May I ask for one final thing doesn't make it an obvious point. (In my opinion) Both manhwa's contain large scenes that are actaully really pretty and detailed so if that's your sort of thing you'll want to read The ml's are royalty in some sort of way Some hilarity though not so much in This Person is a Villainess. Despite the differences I do believe if you enjoyed at least one of them you may enjoy the other even if they're not entirely similar!

Tower Dungeon
Fujimoto himself has recommended Tower Dungeon. Both mangas are plot focusedbut have a focus on cool fights against cool well designed body horror monsters, and a similarly cast of characters with strong and wacky personalities or qualities. Fans of Power and Kobeni will be happy with Lilisen, etc. The main characters also have a similar appeal, they're both simple minded idiots with a lot of power and importance they didn't ask for, but still accept and throw themselves into the fray. Both are very action focused, but while Chainsaw man is set in a modern urban setting and has more of a focus on relationships and growth, Tower Dungeon is a dark fantasy manga that is much more focused on purely plot, although every part of it from cast to humor is also solid.

Tower Dungeon
Dungeon Meshi is overall more upbeat with bouts of epic and bleak moments, where Tower Dungeon is more overall overall bleak and epic with bouts of lightheartedness and comedy. Both stories have a cast of endearingly wacky characters and parties, with a lot of banter, and both have worldbuilding as a big draw. Fights always have a lot of thought put into them and there's a sort of realistic approach to how it would be like going on dungeon dives and the ressource management involved. With its monsters, Tower Dungeon leans into body horror more while Dungeon Meshi presents an array of classic fantasy monsters with more of a focus on speculative biology. Both put a fresh spin on tired tropes, such as "if you conquer and defeat this dungeon you shall become king, prophesied one", which make it so in the end nothing is as it first seems, and the question of who to trust is perhaps the most important. Dungeon Meshi gets darker than you'd first assume while Tower Dungeon gets more lighthearted than you'd first assume. Both have plenty of awe-inspiring moments and visuals, and a story that'll get you glued to the page, don't be fooled by Dungeon Meshi's episodic facade.

The sense of wonder in these has a way of gripping you and not letting you go. Galaxias and Fairy Tail are both action-adventure series featuring dragonic, battle-hungry, maybe not-so-smart male leads, and equally energetic yet not as battle-driven, book-loving female leads. Both emphasize embarking on a journey where unlikely comrades join along the way and take place in a fantastical expansive world where each respective kingdom is explored. If high-octane action scenes with a side of comedy sound interesting, check out Galaxias!

Cute girls doing cute things! A standard moe trope—oh wait… 💀 These manga with mostly cute female leads are not what you'd expect them to be! Both of these delve into darker themes that make you question why these cute girls have to endure this kind of pain/trauma. "Gakkougurashi!" tapped into using a coping mechanism that is just a string away from backfiring—a happy delusion—in order to help them cling to that hope that everything will be okay despite their circumstances. On the other hand, "I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day" delves into the sad reality of being unable to die together with all the pain you have to endure because of it. It also tapped into wanting to leave a mark on the ones you love before your inevitable end, as life is fragile, and it can be taken away at the drop of a hat. All in all, if you want a moe manga that has an element of slice of life together with some form of darker themes, then these two are for you.
