Both of the actors who played Yutaka (Inukai Atsuhiro) and Minoru (Iijima Hiroki) previously starred in this crossover movie, Kamen Rider Heisei Generations FINAL: Build & Ex-Aid with Legend Riders. If you watched Bokura no Shokutaku (Our Dining Table) and want to see these actors interact again, I suggest watching the movie. Very different storyline, but I enjoyed their characters as Kamen Rider Build/Sento and Kamen Rider Ex-Aid/Emu.
You can find Bokura no Shokutaku (Our Dining Table) with english subtitles on either GagaOOLala website or Dramacool.hr website.

These two Jdramas that consist of different storylines and target audiences surprisingly share common themes, character traits, and much more.
*Note: I'll refer 30-sai made Dotei Da to Mahotsukai ni Nareru rashii as its short title in english, "Cherry Magic."
Similarities for both Jdramas:
-They are wholesome Jdramas depicting healthy relationships for both romantic relationships and friendships. There is amazing chemistry and relationship development in both Jdramas. All of the main leads are both considerate and supportive to their partner, friends, acquaintances, housemates and/or co-workers.
-They are both romantic comedy Jdramas that display plenty of fluffy moments for the couples.
-The main leads (Mashiba Kurumi from Kikazaru Koi and Adachi Kiyoshi from Cherry Magic) are straightforward.
-Each character possess interesting/unique personalities that shows their charming side.
-Both feature cute pets as characters too!
-Each Jdrama consists of characters that go through great character development.
-Both Jdramas teach valuable life lessons.
-Radiate good vibes for the majority of the season.
-Both include characters that had a crush on someone for 7 years.
-Cohabitation occurs in both Jdramas, except it only happens briefly in Cherry Magic.
-Consists of skillful acting from all actors and actresses!
Few differences:
-In Cherry Magic, they place less emphasis on the characters' work-life, while concentrating more on their personal lives. Whereas Kikazaru Koi focuses on the characters' work-life and personal life simultaneously.
-Cherry Magic includes supernatural elements because the main male lead, Adachi Kiyoshi gains the power to read people's minds.
-Kikazaru Koi express straight couples, while Cherry Magic shows same-sex couples.
