I Cannot Reach You

they both have relationship with pure and sweet love (in school) i think everyone should watch both of them; they have amazing cinematography, cute story and good cast.
also maeda kentaro(yamato) and hyuga wataru(ryuji) are good friends irl!!

Both are just cute highschool romance, no innecesary complications, just two highschool boys learning about their feelings and love.

Both of these BL romances center around childhood friends, where one has held an unrequited crush on the other since basically the beginning. It takes a while for the other to figure and find out, and for them to get over the fear of damaging their friendship, but the resultant slow development from friends to lovers is similarly sweet in both dramas.

Both are Japanese BLs with a school setting and lots of yearning from one of the MLs who is secretly in love with his close friend, the other ML. Both couples are made up of a serious, quiet ML and an outgoing, louder ML

Both are BLs in which the MLs have been friends since childhood, with one secretly harboring a crush on the other.

Both are BLs in which are long time friends since childhood, one of whom has a crush on the other. The two slowly grow into a romance.

Similar vibe. A cold guy who doesn't want to confess his love but can't help but show it, and a cute guy who gets confused by it

Set at Shidou Gakuin, a boys' boarding school situated off the beaten track. In the second year at school, Takumi Hayama is allocated a room in a dorm to share with Giichi "Gii" Saki. Gii was brought up abroad and is the school idol with his exceptional academic performance, as well as his good looks. One day, Gii confesses to Takumi that he has been in love with him for some time. This unexpected truth of events unsettles Takumi, however, he comes to realize the true sensitivity of Gii

Both r school based about childhood best friends .one of them has fallen in love with the other for a long time and the other one has no clue.both r very sweet

Both stories feature thoughtful and realistic depictions of teenagers dealing with issues of love and identity in general, as well as the complications of falling in love with your best friend specifically.
Kamisama no Ekohiiki explores some deeper, more philosophical topics as well and generally has slightly higher production value, but both shows are incredibly wholesome and gentle, and frankly perfect for a cozy weekend spent cuddled up on the couch.

Traversing the cities of Berlin, Seoul, and Tokyo, a 10-year-long love story between two young men is told. It all starts when Ryu Narutaki, who left everything behind in Japan, is saved by a boxer named Johan Hwang in a foreign land.

"No matter how much time we spend together, I'll never become special to you."
Childhood best friends. Two halves of a whole. The cool, smart one who's good at almost everything, and his average, dorky friend who struggles to do anything right-Yamato and Kakeru. Always by the other's side, but not together in the way they truly want to be. No matter how hard they try, their hearts cannot reach each other...

I believe both the bls are similar due to the school setting and my love mix up is underrated it deserves more attention so hope it gets so...

The thai short movie deals with the same topic; childhood best friends see their relationship changing. The short film packed as much emotion in extraordinary 20min as the japanese series in 160 long rather boring minutes.

Both have cute leads and very sweet moments between .I'd u liked one u will definitely like the other
