Looking from Protagonist quality:
- Both has a certain dark side to them that stems from certain trauma, and this dark side will become the driving force behind their growth and goal. In Weed case, it is greed to gather as much money to become success once more (and for his family as well); In Naofumi case, it is wrath to exact revenge and be more successful than the other heroes (also so that he can comeback to his world).
- Both are hard-working, and focused too much on the practical things that they can be a jerk to other people (cold-hearted, for example) but inside their heart, they're actually very kind.
- Both has crappy class that's very weak at start but grows awesome utilizing menial skills (cooking, production skills, etc). in Weed case, it's Sculptor class-type which is unsuitable for fight. In Naofumi case, it's the restriction on Shield Hero class, he can't use weapons and thus, can only defend.
Looking from plot-wise:
- Both started from the lowest start, and during their journey it is full of boos and jeers from the other, but thanks to their protagonist luck and hard work, they slowly crawl up, and other people start to see them in a different light.
Looking from Setting-wise:
- Both world are set in a medieval world. in LMS, it is the world of game. But in this series, it is in another world that works like game.

I think above points are enough. There are others that I might failed to remember or notice but could be used as a point of similarities for both series.
Lastly, yes this is Harem. Starting from zero, he will gather party members and unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?) to him, lots of party member he gained are female.
