Both main characters go into show business and have to over come many challenges in order to act well. They both have trouble finding out how to act out characters as well.
the protagonist trying to make it as an actress + the development of the relationship with an older guy, big name of the industry
Both anime's are about the acting industry with a powerful elusive male helping to push them to their dream. Skip Beat has more comedy while Glass Mask is more dramatic, but the story line of them trying to reach for the top and their natural talent is very similiar. If you love one, you'll probably love the other.

They both are focused around becoming famous actresses- and for the most part have similar motives for wanting to act. 1) they want to prove someone wrong and 2) because they find a passion for it. The actresses also have a 'relationship' for an older man, which in both cases the male character has conflicting emotions about how he should go about their 'relationship'. Although Glass mask is more on the dramatic theatrics where as Skip Beat! is more of a comical anime, if you like one of them, you are sure to like the other. :)
Both are about two great actors and later falls in love with one of their mentors. Maya in glass mask is a genius at acting while Kyoko from skip beat has some hidden/unknown ability to act. Ren from Skip beat and Masumi from glass mask resembles each other too xD. Glask mask is more dramatic while skip beat has more comedy.

Both female protagonists, Kyoko from Skip Beat and Maya from Glass Mask are both very similar, since they both have an extraordinary talent in acting. The male characters within the animes, Ren from Skip Beat and Masumi from Glass Mask are also similar, since they have a great influence on the female protagonists. However, I think that Glass Mask has more drama in it, whereas Skip Beat has more comedy and both do have elements of romance in them.
If i were to choose which one was the best... Skip Beat is the winner all the way ^^
Glass Mask is about a young 13-year-old girl, Maya Kitajima, who has no specific talent for anything--except acting. Once she is discovered by an old, famous actress, she is taken under her wing and trained into an amazingly talented, award-winning actress, all the while striving to beat out her rival, acting prodigy Ayumi Himekawa, for the role that made her mentor famous: the Scarlet Angel in "The Scarlet Angel".
While Glass Mask is more stage acting oriented, there are certain times where they go into acting for TV shows and movies like Kyoko does in Skip Beat. Glass Mask has a lot more drama than

Both about acting, both about Girls whose dream is to be the greatest
but it doesn't mean they're too similar! They're indeed different and alike at the same time
anyways, if you enjoyed one - you're definitely going to enjoy the other!
In both series, there is a girl who is pursuing for a career in the entertainment industry (although for different reasons). Along the way, they encounter struggles but pushes themselves to overcome any challenges they face. Additionally, they are determined to try out new ideas for their careers.
There is passion in both series with a sense of drama. Skip Beat! contains more comedy though while Glass no Kamen/Glass Mask contains more drama. The main male protagonists also plays their roles that influences the girl's decisions and career at several occasions. Additionally, there is added element of romance present that develops on and off.
The main girl tries to become an actress, and everybody is surprised at her level of skill for such a low level of experience.
Ren and Hayami are similar characters, being the older guy who likes to tease the main girl, but is actually in love with her. However, they restrain themselves because of the age difference and also partly because of their position. The main girl starts off hating them, but as she gets to know them better she respects them and looks to them as a mentor.
Both of these titles are about acting and both are in the shoujo and romance genres. The main characters are somewhat alike with their serious and surprising ways of acting. Glass mask tends to be more serious, though.
Both the animes have main leads trying to make it big in acting. Both have Daddy Long Legs kind of love interest. Though Skip Beat is more comic, Glass no Kamen keeps itself mostly serious.
The story follows a young girl who wants to make it in show business, and she finds herself in love along the way.

Both series revolve around a girl entering the world of show business and acting, detailing both the struggles and rewards they experience on their journeys. Romance plays its part in both, but it is perfectly balanced with the other components of the show, so it's never overpowering nor neglected. Both main characters are strong, determined and likeable females with a lot of spirit and ambition and their journeys of the ups and downs of working and sacrificing for your dreams are extremely relatable and inspiring. If you liked one, I would be very surprised if you didn't enjoy the other.
Both anime are shoujo anime about girls struggling throughout their careers in the movie/play industry (ig that what it called). Glass no Kamen is more serious than Skip Beat and does not have the weird-ish sense of humor, but in my opinion it is one of the best shoujo anime I have watched. Both of the mangas are still unfinished, but both are still worth reading.
