Recommendations

In both shows, the daughter is getting revenge on her biological mother for abandoning her. The FL is grey/an anti-heroine in both dramas, but the FL in A Graceful Liar is far more villainous.

both dramas feature a female lead with exceptional skills in their sport of interest, a thrilling adventure of their rise to the top despite multiple hurdles and having nothing to their names

They’re kinda similar, the humor is chaotic in the best way, super fun and the friendship between the main characters is so good, Enemies to Friends

-Daisy Li and Ye Shengja star in both dramas
-Leads work together to change the destiny of the world
-Has romance
-FL has to overcome an obstacle to become stronger

Both plots revolve around supernatural abilities.
Both star Kamiki Ryunosuke & Arimura Kasumi (minor roles in SPEC, leading roles in FE).

Both explore the gray zones of justice by focusing on characters who challenge the system from within.

In Anti-Hero, a lawyer defies Japan’s 99.9% conviction rate by securing acquittals even for seemingly guilty clients, raising questions about what justice truly means. Meanwhile, Okura follows detectives relegated to a “graveyard” department tasked with cold cases, where outcasts use unconventional methods to uncover hidden truths.

Both dramas highlight outsiders working against rigid institutions

another recommendation

Both Nietzsche-sensei and Teasing Master Takagi-san thrive on the same comedic rhythm: a simple everyday setting where humor comes from the clash between a straight?laced character and a mischievous counterpart.

In Takagi-san, it’s the endless teasing of Nishikata in a school classroom, while in Nietzsche-sensei it’s the deadpan, philosophical clerk dropping absurd “Nietzsche quotes” on his co?workers and customers in a convenience store.

Structurally, both shows rely on short skit?like episodes, repetitive gags, and the tension between earnest reactions and playful provocation — making them cousins in the comedy of ordinary life turned delightfully off?balance.

someone asking for recommendations so here it goes:

Both are classroom comedy skit series built on a simple formula: one character drives the gag, the other reacts. Takagi-san leans on romantic teasing, while Seki-kun/Rumi-chan leans on absurd mischief and reactions, but structurally they’re cousins in how they deliver laughs.

A hitman falls in love with a woman.
Helps her with her passion projects- art/music.
Wants to be better and leave line of work for her.
[ SPOILER ] Female lead dies in the end.

Similarities:
- Nanno (Girl from Nowhere 2) and Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) both hide their real names
- The Nanno and Kiritanit Sara (Master's daughter) are both intelligent
- The both Nanno (Girl from Nowhere 2) and Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) wear signature hairstyle
- Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) leans more towards being like Yuri (Girl from Nowhere 2) who represents revenge, while Nanno (Girl from Nowhere 2) represents Karma
- Both series are set in school

- We never actually see Nanno (Girl from Nowhere 2) and Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) directly kill someone
- Both series are psychological and mystery dramas
- Death is involved in both dramas

Difference:
- Master's Daughter is a Japanese drama, while Girl from Nowhere 2 is a Thai drama
- Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) stops helping people and only helps herself towards the end
- Nanno (Girl from Nowhere) is immortal, while Kiritani Sara is just human
- Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) isn't as impulsive as Yuri (Girl from Nowhere 2) is, instead she takes her time getting revenge
- Yuri (Girl from Nowhere 2) does start off human, but isn't towards then end, comapred to Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) who stays human the whole time
- Nanno, Yuri (Girl from Nowhere 2) and Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) all have different goals towards the end
- Master's daughter does have more of a romance element to it then Girl from Nowhere 2
- Kiritani Sara (Master's daughter) stays in the same school throughout the series, but Nanno and Yuri (Girl from Nowhere 2) transfer from school to school

I wouldn't say Master's daughter is a direct copy of Girl from nowhere, but they have their similarities.

Both A Little Thing Called First Love and Always Home are similar because they’re coming-of-age stories that focus on friendship, self-growth, and the emotional journey of first love. Both follow characters from their school years into adulthood, showing how friendships shape them, how quiet crushes slowly develop, and how personal challenges help them discover who they really are. While First Love centers more on one girl’s transformation because of her crush, and Always Home uses a larger friend group with deeper family themes, both dramas share the same warm, realistic, nostalgic vibe about growing up, changing, and finding love along the way.
