Arsenal Military Academy (2019)

Both FLs disguise themselves as male in order to enter a boys only academy where they end up roommates with the ML who they initially dislike but later fall in love with.

Mystic Nine isn't set in a military academy and has some fantasy elements but appearance wise the male leads give off the same vibe except Fo Ye in the Mystic Nine is super smart

- The main couples has a similar dynamic (funny and cute) when they are on screen together
- they are both set in the same time period with the Japanese taking over China
- there are a lot of good looking actors in both shows

Both are Chinese dramas with military themes.
- Sweet love story
- Male Chase Female First
- Perfect Chemistry
- Amazing lead actors.

Both are based on same historical period with the importance of the Whampoa Military academy, and the rising influence of Communism in and south of Shanghai.

Both have a school setting with the FL there for a purpose and hiding her identity. Xu Kai plays the ML in both and is a similar sort of mischievous character.

both are set in the chinese republican era (gorgeous colours and sets :)) and both have amazing chemistry between the leads

has xu kai and gao yuer, slow burn romance, xukai plays very funny character but smart and caring at the same time much like in AMA

Female lead has to play it off that they’re a guy. Tough female lead who can fight and falls in love with a rich guy.

Both FLs pose as boys to enter an elite school. Both MLs are a bit silly and teasing. Both are historically set dramas, although GIC has fantasy elements that AMA doesn't.

They both have the same feeling to it with badass FL even though they have different plots. Both are great series anyway I don't really know how to make a recommendation so bye.

Both Arsenal Military Academy and The Tale of Nokdu are cross dressing dramas done right. And both are historical genres

XuKai is also the ML here. Both are during the 1900s era.
Lost in Kunlun is more like an action/wuxie style with the story about five sects and Jiang Hu but AMA is more lighthearted (at least the beginning) and with the story about the military school life.

While Tientsin Mystic is more on the supernatural side of things, it does share a similar ambiance to that of AMA.

Both have:
- well-written and developed characters
- eye candy...lots of eye candy, people
- a thrilling and cohesive storyline/plot
- strong friendships/camaraderie/squad goals for days
- slight romance (more like the subplot)
- production value is top-tier/cinematography is aesthetic asf
- fantastic chemistry between the cast
- both take place in the 1930s/1940s
- great action sequences/fun antics
