- Both MLs are popular novelists/writers
- Both FLs are the editors in charge of the ML
- Both MLs suffer from past heartbreak
- Both MLs are jerks, more prevalent in Bungaku Shojo
- Both FLs are quite "annoyingly upbeat/outspoken"

Note: Between the two, I prefer The Way We Love more. Much more enjoyable and the dynamic between the two leads are cuter (in a bickering type of couple way). The ML is less of a jerk too.
