The Hero Chapter is the immediate sequel to the original Yuuki Yuuna and is perhaps the strongest season yet (I have not seen the Mankai chapter yet so that doesn't count in my reckoning). This season is largely story driven with the slice-of-life/comedy elements taking a back seat. The major...

Both shows are similar in nature as they can be classed as romantic/comedy although Taishou is the more serious of the two plus it is...
