Japanese romance with the same light vibe to the narrative, somehow. Both treat their characters with fariness and develop them in a similar way. Also, they're both the type of series that gives comfort to people who watch them, because the plot is fairly uncomplicated and more realistic in a matter of actions-feelings.
Kieta Hatsukoi is more juvenile, but it gives me the same vibe as Perfect Propose.
