High-school setting + class/group dynamics
My Love Mix-Up! centres on high school students, class seating, crushes and misunderstandings in that school environment.
School Trip places the protagonist as a second-year high schooler who gets separated from his usual friends and must join a group on a school trip.
Both stories use the school-social environment (classmates, group formation, social status) as a backdrop for the romantic development.
“Ordinary / overlooked” protagonist meets someone popular / from a higher social tier
In My Love Mix-Up!, the lead Aoki is fairly ordinary, with a crush on a classmate, and then gets pulled into a situation where another classmate thinks he likes him, creating a new dynamic.
In School Trip, Hioki is “ordinary” / isolated in class, then invited into a group of four popular guys known as the “Four Heavenly Kings.”
This “underdog meets popular upper-tier student(s)” trope is shared between the two — giving the dynamic tension, attraction contrast, and potential for drama.
Romantic comedy / coming-of-age feel with misunderstandings or awkward emotional beginnings
My Love Mix-Up! is explicitly a romantic comedy with misunderstandings (the eraser name mistake) and high-school first love complications.
While School Trip’s synopsis doesn’t yet emphasize a huge comedic misunderstanding, it does highlight nervousness, social awkwardness, “distance” closing between the ordinary boy and the popular boy, jealousy, and first-love discoveries.
So both show the “boy meets boy (in this case BL context)” scenario where one is navigating new feelings, new social dynamics, and emotional growth.
Focus on relational development through proximity / shared experience
In My Love Mix-Up!, much of the plot advances as the characters spend time together, mis-interpretations lead to further contact, and they gradually learn more about themselves and each other.
In School Trip, the school trip setting forces proximity (group travel, shared rooms, outing), which makes the relationship escalate through shared experiences (e.g., group activities, staying in same room) rather than “just passing glances”.

BL with school setting. The popular guy chases after the lonely guy. They are both very cute and innocent
The main couple are very similar to each others.
1. the popular guy is simping for the non popular guy.
2. The not so popular guy has very little self-confidence. And is always putting others before himself.
3. The popular guy fall for the other guy with just one conviction. But he doesn’t dare to become friends with him till the plot happens.

YET AGAIN ANOTHER HEARTWARMING HIGHSCOOL BL :3 MSP is adorable, though a lot more comedy based. Also if you don't enjoy musicals you MIGHT not like it because they sing a lot, but the songs are amazing anyway, just give it a try idk. It's a silly show about the nerd school president being secretly in love with the member of a school band and having to pretend he's trying his best to get their club cancelled if they don't raise their grades enough, because his mom the principal might shut it down for real since there's not enough budget. He offers to tutor them and does his best to convince his mom to give them a chance because he only cares about his crush's happiness and nothing else, just like watarai. Tsundere but make it cute, am I right? hehe the show is available on Youtube, entirely for free! subs in many languages as well. Their love is just as cute.
LESBIAN F4 YESYESYES
