"More Than Blue" and "1 Litre no Namida" share several thematic similarities that make them emotionally compelling. Both stories center around protagonists dealing with terminal illnesses: Aya Kito in "1 Litre no Namida" suffers from spinocerebellar ataxia, while K in "More Than Blue" is terminally ill. They explore the emotional and psychological struggles associated with their conditions, affecting not just themselves but also their loved ones. Themes of love and sacrifice are prominent; K sacrifices his happiness for Cream's future, while Aya's family and friends provide unwavering support. Both narratives highlight the impact of illness on relationships and emphasize perseverance, hope, and finding meaning in life despite inevitable suffering and loss.

In 1 Litre no Namida, the lead is female and has spinocerebellar degeneration.
