I have to warn you this will content spoiler of Nisekoi and Ichigo 100% manga You have been warned! Enjoy~ First of all, I love both manga obviously. However, despite having different author, I can't get over how similar they are, especially on plot, settings, and characters. Let's first discuss this matter based on each category:
PLOT
Both story revolve around an average looking guy, Raku Ichigo and Manaka Junpei (later refer as "MC"), with some powerful harem magnet equipped within them who later because of some misunderstanding ends up with a relationship with a blond girl, Kirisaki Chitoge and Nishino Tsukasa respectively while MC still has a strong feeling for another cute girls with black hair who somehow didn't attract another guy's attention, Onodera Kosaki and Toujo Aya. Both MC initially has no feeling for their girlfriend whatsoever. However as time goes, the begun develop a strong feeling toward their current girlfriend, even as strong as what they feel about their first crush, while lead to a dilemma and lots of drama. See what I mean? Even just the premise is very similar. However of how strong the similarity, there're some different as well like: In Nisekoi, the plot device that lead them is the locket that the MC holds and the keys that four heroine holds.
While in Ichigo 100%, the author use Ichigo (strawberry) panties (I know it's rather perverted, but need to be said), and you'll see a lot of those along the series.
Also as I mention, Ichigo 100% is rather perverted series, so it seems to used a lot of fan service such as showing naked body to each other, hugging, groping, girl's crotch in MC's head, and even kissing.
While in Nisekoi, you'll find a lot less of those thing. In fact, as far as I can remember, the MC hadn't willingly kissed any of his harem. Last thing I have to mention, Nisekoi plot progress is really slow because most of the series, you'll find a lot of kinda filler chapter and the characters, beside Tachibana Marika, Shuu Maiko and Ruri Miyamoto are DENSE as fuck. Until recently, starting about chapter 200+, the cast suddently not so dense which I'm feeling grateful about it. While in Ichigo 100%, you could say that the progress is also slow, but it's there. In every chapter, you could feel the plot progressing, despite really slow.
SETTINGS
You could say both story start at middle school, and mainly take place in high school in which most of the main cast attend (Nishino Tsukasa is the only exception). I could also assumed the story end the same time as they graduate and the time jumps a few years to see what all cast is doing with their life. This category is also very similar right? Now let's discuss what's the different between the two: First of all, in Nisekoi apparently most of the main cast had met when they are really really small and forget all about it, really convenient right? lol While in Ichigo 100% most of them met for the first time since middle school and one of them goes to another school. Also, it seems the cast of Nisekoi are all "go-home" club members while most of the main cast in Ichigo 100% are members of movies club in order to chase their dreams. Cast in Nisekoi also very very lucky to have all the main cast in same class for 3 consecutive years while in Ichigo 100% seems more realistic with they'll separate at some point.
CHARACTERS
Now before we'll discuss each character separately, I'll give you my view on their characteristic in general. Characters in Ichigo 100% are very determine about their future since middle school and doing everything they can to reach it while they're in high school while characters in Nisekoi just like to play around enjoying their time in high school except for maybe Ruri Miyamoto. Also I have to mention, the MC and all his harem are aware that they love each other and dare to face conflict each other in attracting MC's attention in their own way. First let's discuss each main harem's characteristic of Ichigo 100%:
Nishino Tsukasa
[*]blond hair [*]likes make (western) sweets [*]your classic popular girl [*]has first relationship with MC [*]MC spend most of his free time with her [*]MC gradually has strong feeling toward her [*]very determined about her future [*]MC chose her at the end
Toujou Aya
[*]black hair [*]your classic shy girl [*]has big breast [*]MC's first crush [*]MC and her talent are compatible [*]has a close brother [*]very determined about her future [*]MC apologize for not choosing her while she confess at the end
Kitaouji Satsuki
[*]brown hair [*]at first appear to be tsundere [*]your classic daring girl [*]not afraid of showing affection to MC [*]MC friendzoned her [*]still didn't give up on MC until the very end
Now let's discuss Nisekoi's main harem's characteristic: They have almost every Ichigo 100%'s harem characteristic, you have to crosscheck them.
Kirisaki Chitoge
[*]Tsukasa's blond hair [*]Satsuki's tsundere nature [*]Tsukasa's popularity [*]has first relationship with MC (Tsukasa) [*]MC spend most of his free time with her (Tsukasa) [*]MC gradually has strong feeling toward her (Tsukasa) [*]Satsuki's fate of being friendzoned [*]MC chose her at the end
Onodera Kosaki
[*]Toujou's black hair [*]your classic shy girl (Toujou) [*]MC's first crush (Toujou) [*]MC and her talent are compatible (Toujou) [*]has a close sister (Toujou has brother) [*]MC apologize for not choosing her while she confess at the end
Tachibana Marika
[*]Satsuki's brown hair [*]your classic daring girl (Satsuki) [*]not afraid of showing affection to MC (Satsuki) [*]MC friendzoned her (Satsuki) [*]still didn't give up on MC until the very end (my prediction, same as Satsuki
If I were to compare all Nisekoi minor character's characteristic and compare it no Ichigo 100%, it more or less should be like this:
  • Raku has best friend who are really perspective and genius
  • MC's best friend has sidekick who personally doesn't want to involve in MC's harem business (Miyamoto Ruri and Sotomura Misuzu)
  • Tsugumi Seishirou has Toujou Aya's breast size
  • Onodera Haru resembles Minamoto Yui as imouto character
Now all of this is only my opinion. And based on all of this, I predict that Raku will choose Chitoge in the end and apologize to Onodera. Personally, I'm leaning toward Onodera but the fact is all there, gotta accept it :( PS. If Raku x Chitoge really happen, I hope this will also happen Thanks and CYAAAOOOOO~
