it is similar by the relationship between the two lead characters
--both the girls are totally inlove with a guy who's really rich and popular
--both the girls seems idiot but really has something inside her~
--[the guys are both cold hearted!]--
--the flow of the stories pretty much up.
Both are characteristic Josei stories with a cold but extraordinarily talented male character who is pursued by a ditzy but endearing female character. Nodame revolves around the theme of classical music whereas Itazura focuses on the movement of the characters through from being teenagers to adulthood and around healthcare. Both are superb but Nodame is arguably a masterpiece ...

The main character is female and not as refined as the male lead and initially not as serious as he is. She eventually makes the male lead have feelings for her and end up together.
The character are very similar, somewhat identical. Male lead being the cool and perfect type, while the female lead is high spirited...
Both lead charcters are the same. Female characters are free spirited beings who are not ashamed to show their affection for the male leads. Both Male leads are those cool types who likes to hide their true feelings.
Again, a girl chasing a guy who, despite his full knowledge, constantly brushes her off and finds her very annoying. I also found this very, very amusing! Check it out!
Both anime's feature a heroine who's in love with a seemly cold character, who falls in love with the heroine as the series progresses.

The Male Lead Is Best At Something.. Like Irie Is The Best In Studies And Chiaki Is The Best In Piano.
Both I Guess Are Perfectionist.
For The Female Lead, Both Are Very High Spirited.
Both Also Chases The Guy They Like Even Though Rejected?
And Both Starts Out With The Guys Being Mean Towards The Girls And Then Eventually Forms Romantic Feelings Towards The Girls Overtime.

For all the reasons stated above. They are indeed very similar. Nodame is actually slightly more enjoyable for me (only because I have a background in music) if I'm being honest and I LOVE Itazura. I'm a sucker for a cold-hearted albeit gorgeous/smart/talented guy getting his emotional walls broken down by a plucky girl "trying her best" without him even realizing it and then they both get a happy ending - my favorite kind of story <3

They both have male protagonists that are praised as geniuses, and tenacious and hard working. They're both romance stories that covers a period of time, and with the female protagonist chasing after the male protagonist.
These two are very very similar in many many aspects
1. Both about a life-long romance relationship. Typically in anime it's just highschool romance, but in these two, both proceeds to university and career (Itatsura even proceed to having baby lmao)! In Itatsura, main characters later became doctor and nurse, and in Nodame Cantabile --pianist and conductor. If you are craving to watch in a sweet relationship that won't make you go 'Ughhhh WHY DID IT END SO SOON I WANT MORE!' then only these two will satisfy you!
2. Female and male protagonist both have similar characteristic. Male character being quite 抖S(which in English means

Both of the characters are the same in both animes, and they're relationship is the same as well. Both animes end up having the female in the house of the male somehow, and the male is smart while the girl is dumb. The male is annoyed at the female in the beginning in both animes, but then starts developing feelings for her. The female also falls in love first in both animes. The only way I see they are different from each other is that nodame cantabile has romance as a secondary plot, while itakiss has it as the main plot. Don't let this stop
