The main similarity is that both series have relationships that you wouldn't expect to work. You will find that in both anime there is someone in the relationship that is jealous and somewhat controlling. Oh, and the way the characters are designed is really similar too.
The male figures in each Honey x honey Drops and Boky wa Imouto ni Koi wo Suru are controlling. The theme of forbidden love is in each anime series while the characters overcome that in very unique ways.
Kotoko Aihara has always been in love with Naoki Irie; he’s tall, handsome, and rumored to be the most intelligent student in Japan – who wouldn’t be? Only one thing stands in the way of a relationship with Irie: Kotoko is ditzy and is at the bottom set of her school, and Irie-kun hates nothing more than ditzy, stupid girls. When disaster strikes and Kotoko is forced to move in with Irie-kun’s family, she suddenly sees her chance to bridge the gap. After all, even cool, super-intelligent guys must have a soft spot, right?
Itazura na Kiss also features a guy who is a jerk but who eventually cares for the female lead. Honey x Honey Drops is more on the dramatic side, while Itazura na Kiss is more of a romantic comedy.
