Both The Sand Flower and Shiko Funnatta!? are sports drama about wrestling and about a team that is on the verge of disbanding.

A group of misfits join a school club by chance, become friends, and little by little serious about it. A typical underdog story about friendship/love, acceptance and hard work.

A similar tale of a male lead who is lost in life until he met a driven female lead at the most unpopular sports club at the brink of closure, where he encounters various individuals with their own baggage of life trying to find a place they can call home. While Shiko Funjatta is about Sumo, Mirai e no 10 Count is about boxing.

Both introduce you to the world of sumo wrestling. Sanctuary Seiiki focuses more on the old traditions and pro level sumo wrestling. Shiko Funjatta is a lighter drama that focuses on the sport from a modern sport perspective on a collegiate level.

A similar story of a traditional sports club struggling to get new members to join the team. In Asahinagu the female lead joins the club hoping to be as strong as the senior club member that she admires. While Shiko Funjatta is about Sumo dominated by males, Asahinagu is about Naginata dominated by females.

Both of them are about someone who loves the sport who meets someone who doesn't, but learn to love it.

Hikaru no Go has a really nice atmosphere, just like Shiko Funjatta, it's heartwarming and realistic in some aspects. I love both of them equally, and for me, they are similar.
