For some reason, the humor and dynamic chibis really reminded me of Skip Beat!'s storytelling when I started reading Takane & Hana. The humour is also similar (amazing, that is), as well as the heroine's love interest. :3 Takane is like Sho and Tsuruga in one, it is a really fun read. <3 

While the art in the beginning is not as good as in Takane & Hana, you defintely won't be disappointed if you give Skip Beat! a chance!

Likewise, if you enjoyed Skip Beat!, you will certainly enjoy Takane & Hana. Skip Beat! being my #1 favourite manga, I am convinced its fans will enjoy Takane & Hana. :3

Independant girls, funny and kind of sassy. Male leads that are not douchey and showing their human side, defects and goods sides. Funny and romantic story.

I liked the male protagonists in both mangas. Not only were their characters of a similar mold, but I thought the way they connected with their female leads were reminiscent of each other in some aspects.

Similar feeling, good romantic comedy with a non-traditional felmale chacter and comically over the top men.

Both have a bit of a tsundere bent. It is takane in one and taiga in the other one. Toradora is cuter but takane and hana is funnier.

Both start with a girl replacing someone else on a blind date while lying about their identity. The ml falls in love quickly and pursues marriage. Takane to hana has more humor and a business proposal is more mature.

Rich people age gap. Similar humour, audacious FLs who give sick burns. With Takane & Hana, the girl's a regular school girl with a stubborn attitude, while in Together Forever, the girl's the one that's rich and she's on an all out attack trying to snag the older man who's fighting for his life just to maintain his dignity.
