In both dramas, jealousy and envy are main themes and the leads are long time female friends with an ambiguous relationship.
Kenja no Ai is much darker and more twisted.

Both are based from a novel by Fumie Kondo. Judging from the first few episodes of both dramas, they are similar with some details. Aside from the mystery thriller vibe from both, a high school backstory is a common ground. In addition, the female protagonists are both writers. In Influence, Oikawa Tomomi is a novelist while Makabe Suzune is a scriptwriter.
