They are both office romances and have a light-hearted feeling/vibe to the shows. Two soft hearted people falling in love in both series.
Aoki has a crush on Hashimoto, the girl in the seat next to him in class. But he despairs when he borrows her eraser and sees she's written the name of another boy—Ida—on it. To make matters more confusing, Ida sees Aoki holding that very eraser and thinks Aoki has a crush on him!
Both of these working age BLs feature an office worker male lead who has come to accept a monotonous and lonely routine in his life. That routine gets shaken up by the other male lead's increasing presence in his life.
Focus on only the main leads. No side drama. Similar plotline though this one's characters are younger. One lead has a love for cooking for the other. Short 6 episode drama just like OFC.
While watching Unintentional Love Story i got reminded of Old Fashion Cupcake :) They're both great and very comforting shows.
They're about quite different people who learn to live, love, grow, be happy and enjoy life.

Both shows present a relationship where both male leads have larger age gaps than usual and they are both Japanese BLs :)
Slice of Life drama centered around the budding romance of to men bonding over food and new experiences.
Both stories here focus on adults, who have mentalities to match. People who have become used to being alone in their minds, and with mature characters, you also get some greyer tones. Both stories will have warming moments and bittersweet ones, so if you like the slight edge to either story, maybe give the other a go.
Both shows are the only shows I would dare to compare with Life: Senjou no Bokura. So I’ll also mention that here because really, I think if you can appreciate any of the three, the others will be enjoyable to you too.
