I think it's pretty hard for any idol group to be stand alone, especially with the Love Live School Idol Project and Sunshine being from the same producers. I've noticed that a lot of manga authors seem to stick within a kind of genre and that all their main characters are "almost the same" throughout the different series. One thought comes to my mind is Yuu Watase. All her main characters are almost alike and even the settings are quite simular with the "Pulled into a Land/Possessed Sibling." Alice 19th and Ceres Celestial Legend are almost the same as in girl is trying to get their sibling back and meets others like herself with a kind of power.

Fushigi Yugi and the sequel is very simular to the other.

I'm a huge manga collector and even though I love each series I get I do realise that most of them are the same story, different setting, different characters. Which I don't really mind because I like the core of the story-type if that makes any sense?
