Oga is like Gintoki. Main characters, pretty aloof and sometimes naive but surprisingly strong. Furuichi is like Shinpachi. Pretty weak and screams a lot, often frustrated with the main character and points out to obvious when the main character is oblivious. Total spazzes. Hilde is like Kagura in the sense of being the only girl in the group. Kagura is more crazy, but both girls are pretty strong and sometimes also aloof. Beel and Sadaharu are pretty strong as well, and are more like the mascosts even though Beel is a baby. Lots of fights, action, and crazy humor in both series.

Both include Demons coming to Earth. Great combination of action and comedy which is executed extremely well. Both have badass MC and a comedic partner.

Many similarities between both series. There's young typical boy who is attending school, but after few minutes, we can see, that there's much more about him and that's not to be only his delinquent's habits. First episode shows us characters from different world, who came to our place, because of their own reasons. I didn't read manga, but I think, there will be many many more charas, so we are receiving another "never ending story".

• Both animes begin with a teenager getting involved with the demon realm without having a say in it. • In both Yu Yu Hakusho's and Beelzebub's universe exists a mazoku (demon) race. • Both main characters are deliquents,being the strongest in their school. • Both have young,baby looking “demon lords” ( Bel and Koenma).Altough Koenma has over 500 years and can transform into an adult,whereas Bel is really a newborn. • Both are shounens where the main character gets more powerful with each fight,gaining "nakamas" along the way. If you enjoyed watching Yu Yu Hakusho,you might want to give Beelzebub a try.

Both have partners which are babies and the main character always gets into some sort of trouble. When I watched Beelzebub, it reminds me of Katekyo Hitman reborn in every aspect and vice versa.

Both protagonists in the series receive a demonic child which they have to use to defend their lives from people and other beings in order to achieve a certain goal. Gash is focused more the action and adventure genre while Beelzebub is a pure episodic comedy manga with several action-themed plots.

I instantly thought Beelzebub when I started watching Saiki. They are about high schoolers with unique attributes. They are both slap stick comedies with no deep plot and have episodes with stand alone plots.

Binbougami ga! seems like it would appeal to people who liked the female delinquents in Beelzebub. It has similar humor and roughness of language, as well, and beings of the supernatural involved in the main plot (demons in Beelzebub, gods of poverty/misfortune in Binbougami ga!).

Both Beelzebub and SKET Dance are unique in their own ways, both have lots of comedy and some romance. SKET Dance has more school life while Beelzebub doesn't. Both have different kinds of violence, but its more involving comedy/helping others. Both are long series that I wish had second seasons -v- Looking for comedy and strange twists in the stories? The you should watch both Beelzebub and SKET Dance! :)

Both shows have delinquents as main characters, and they both turn into parental figures. Also, both have a titular hero/heroine who provides supernatural powers to the main character. Beelzebub's one of my favorite shows, and Hinamatsuri provides a similar vibe.

Both series are comedies that are centered around high school students. They also have really funny and likable characters. So if you liked Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou, you should definitely check Beelzebub (and reverse). Why? Because they are hilarious! Do you need more?!

Similarities: 1. High school delinquent 2. They use school as their base 3. There is a hierarchy of delinquent in the school 4. Main protagonist aims to be the top of hierarchy Differences: 1. Beelzebub has demons, while Wind Breaker not. 2. Main protagonist of Beelzebub tasked to take care Demon King's baby, while in Wind Breaker, he joined a team that help and protect the city.

The protagonists are very different, but the gangster/bosozoku theme is the same. Beelzebub has proper badass mc and bit of supernatural powers leaking into normal world. On top of that, it also has comedy and doesn't take things too seriously. If you want to see crybaby grow and become strong then this is not for you. However, if you want to see badass fights among school gangs,.. Then beelzebub hits the spot.

Well, the story may differ from each other but from what I have noticed is that the main character in Maid-sama, Misaki has some similarities with the supporting character in Beelzebub, Kunieda Aoi. First of all they look somewhat similar -> face Secondly, they both hate men and protects the girls from the boys in school. Also, they both got feared by the most boys, except for the main guy character! Well, you know what I'm talking about right, the boy giving her some attention and finally she falls for him.

They both have comedy martial arts and super power. I thought this was way funnier (yes funnier) than Naruto. It is one of the best anime I've ever watched.

Similar kinda story structure, where most of it are absurd comedy sketches, but then it actually serves unironically to flesh out the characters and form a path moving forward. Plus, it's all kickstarted by the arrival of a surreal character that needs to be taken care of by the delinquent protagonist of the story.

Both involve babies! Beelzebub is definitely more action packed and really jumps into the comedy aspect of things, but I can guarantee that if you love one you'll love the other.

Similar whacky comedy, sometimes in absurd situations. The protagonists are also self-proclaimed delinquents, share similar personality, and also have the same voice actor to top it all off.

Beelzebub and School Rumble are both absurd comedies with a delinquent as the protagonist. The main difference between these two anime is that Beelzebub does not feature romance as a heavy driver of plot and instead focuses on action, as the protagonist seeks to become the toughest kid at school with the help of demon powers.

The near 50/50 split between comedy and action makes for a similar vibe I've gotten only a handful of times as a Beelzebub fan. Also, the comedy itself has a very 2000's surrealist-absurd style mixed in with a fair amount of slapstick, very much like Beelzebub. About the action aspect, both have an overpowered protagonist that imposes his will despite circumstances. They will get their way of doing things, wishes, values and objectives respected, no matter what. That's why they are also brave and bold, because they won't be pragmatic or too strategic, just force their way through, all or nothing. Both protagonists can be quite  read more

Beelzebub is similar to The Law if Ueki because: #1. The main characters's characteristics and power. Both the main characters Oga and Ueki are tough little bastards. They also have an insane amount of strength. The main characters's personalities are also quite similar. Both Oga and Ueki have a careless attitude. They also say some respectable things that make people around them wonder if they're really that careless.

Over the top and beyond impossible! TTGL does it with awesome mechas, but Beelzebub is about...raising a child. TTGL has it's serious moments, but Beelzebub is 100% humour. Amazing voice cast: almost every Beelzebub's main character has a seiyuu from TTGL. For example, crazy awesome Kamina's voice actor is playing the role of arrogant but idiotic main character, Oga, who is also crazy awesome in his own (beat them up) way.

I don't think Beelzebub is worth watching if you liked Kenichi but if you liked Beelzebub you will definitely like Kenichi. They are very similar: humor, school, gangs, fights, training etc. No exploding clothes, ecchi or anything unnecessary like in some other animes that have similar settings.

FLCL's a somewhat old supernatural, school, comedy, randomness-infused series that's lost some of its well-deserved popularity in the face of newer series: DMC, Cromartie, Gintama, and Beelzebub. Still, I consider it the top of the line for an intense, fun, laugh tear jerking adventure. Beelzebub and FLCL will give you the same treatment, a hilarious thrill ride that's just too good to miss out on.

Aishiteruze and Beelzebub are both about high school males that end up being the caretakers for small children. That's the only similarity because one (Aishiteruze) focus on love (both the romantic and familial kind) while the other (Beelzebub) focuses on humor. However, if seeing high school males take on nurturing roles is your schtick, you'll like both of them.

Interestingly enough, the comedy/shounen flicks, Beelzebub and Kill la Kill are quite similar in setup, execution, and of course enjoyment! Some similarities they share are: School theme—if you liked the school premise, where there is a main character "challenging/getting challenged" by other groups/gangs you will enjoy both, for both use the school as a catalyst to move the plot. The school is also like a gag, which is quite silly, as they do not represent how a normal school is at all.
