One is a movie and one is a drama with multiple episodes, but both did a wonderful job of representing asexual (ace) and aromantic (aro) characters.
There are similarities between these 2, not just because the main character (or in the case of Koisenu Futari, the 2 main characters) is aroace, but also in some plotlines of the story.
The main difference between these 2 is the way they are about asexuality and aromanticism.
Koisenu Futari is a story about finding your identity and learning what that means for you and the way you choose to live your life in, perhaps, a very non-traditional way.
I Am What I Am however, is a story that focuses more on how society focuses so heavily on romance and shows how people can have different responses when they learn that the main character is aroace. Here, the main character is already very confident in her identity, it is just other people who struggle to understand and accept it.
