The japanese drama is similar to this movie where a 65 year old woman feels like she lost her youth while taking care of her family, she suddenly becomes a 20 year old for a day, but goes back to herself at midnight, and lives her life as a youth again.

The movie Haruta & Chika is about this high school music club that Chika tries to revive by asking students to join the club together with her old friend Haruta. The music club prepares to join a contest with other schools.

The drama Aogeba Toutoshi is similar, here we have a music professor that takes care of problem students and also tries to convince them to join the music club and aim to get first win in a contest with other schools.

This drama is a bit more serious and dramatic while the movie is cheerful and comedic. Both of these give the same vibes.

They kind of have the same concept. A teacher trying to help all her students to graduate and at the same time help them with their personal life and when a problem arise

both are about a teacher trying to help her students, not only because of studies but also help their personal problems too

Both of these dramas are about reporting about the truth, Pinocchio is about Tv reporters while Hero is more about newspaper reports. So the plot and main source is somehow similiar, though Pinocchio is more dramatic and have more actions than Hero but both are exciting to watch and see if the truth are being revealed at the end.

They both got a lot of fighting scenes and about the main characters that begun from nothing became actors

Both are about nine tailed foxes (gumihos) that tries to find a thousandth person to become a human
