Narita Misao is a rookie employee at a company. She doesn’t like Ichikawa Kazuya, who works in the same department. He is brutally honest when he talks to other people. Nevertheless, an incident leads to Narita Misao developing feelings for him. Ichikawa Kazuya also becomes attracted to her. The couple soon enter into an intimate relationship, but Narita Misao learns afterwards that Ichikawa Kazuya is engaged to his girlfriend. Narita Misao is confused by the situation and wonders what he is thinking.
Now, before I start, I do want to say that they are completely different stories. Saikou no Rikon focuses on the aftermath of a divorce and Chugakusei Nikki is about a teacher-student relationship over time.
The similarities I found with them is that they both made me so frustrated to the point I wanted to throw myself out a window. With both dramas, the love in the love triangle is so strong that you don't know who's going to get picked or what's going to happen. It leaves you with so much suspense.
They also both have characters (in my opinion) that you can't help but hate because they end up speaking the awful truth (Haraguchi Ritsu (CN) and Uehara Akari (SNR)). They are also technically "the other woman" so their presence may be irritating at times.
