Although one is a drama and the other a movie, both tackle the dating lives and problems of people inserted in the otaku culture. How to Date an Otaku Girl is also very funny, especially if you're familiriazed at least a little bit with the fujoshi culture. If you understand what the word 'fujoshi' means and you liked Date, you'll difinitely like How to Date an Otaku Girl.

-the family somewhat meddle their relationship
-both dorama have multilayering message and unique aura
-both have some fun; absurd, and wtf moments :XD:
