add recD.N. Angel and DNA² have some similarities that put them in the same basket. Both have bishounen characters, which are what a lot of fans of these two anime are interested in. They also have a similar concept with personality changes. This makes the romance and comedy parts become very alike. DNA² goes a bit faster though and does have a somewhat different atmosphere, but they are still quite related to each other.
Both centre around a male protagonist who is a bit of a loser when it comes to girls but happens to have a genetic alter-ego who is a real charmer. In their attempts to capture the girl of their dreams both Junta and Daisuke end up losing out to their alter-egos. A lot of the comedy and romance is similar but the stories are different enough to avoid deja vu. While D.N.Angel focuses on a fantastical aspect, DNA squared has a more futuristic approach.

add recDNA² and AMG both have a pretty nice romantic story. DNA²'s story might be more unique than usual, but AMG should even have more laughs than DNA². The way the characters struggle to make their love possible feels very similar though!
