Gokushufudou

Sakamoto Days addpermalink

Uber badass underworld legend put his shady life behind to become a family man. Hilarity ensues. 
While those sentences explain the premise of these two manga quite well, there is one small difference: Sakamoto is mostly action with a bit of slice of life, while Househusband is mostly slice of life with a bit of action.

Hinamatsuri addpermalink

One of the main characters in Hinamatsuri is also a mafia member that is pretty "housewifey" type, doing chores et cetera. 

Both manga use over exaggerated facial expressions for comedy, and the style of humor feels little bit similar.

Though Hinamatsuri is more slice of life comedy with wider array of characters and less focused on the mafia aspect, the humor is more about how the characters get into bizarre situations.

GTO addpermalink

Ex delinquents turned - more or less - productive elements of society.
Although complete opposites for personality and motivations, both Onizuka (teacher) and Tatsu (househusband) are tough, strong-willed but goofy former gang members who left the criminal side of life to follow their goal or loved one, with hilarious results.
While GTO has crude comedy, fanservice and action with controversial/sensitive scenes/topics in a school setting, Gokushufudou is a much more wholesome and tame slice of life story. Still, they share an educational purpose of sorts - in very different ways: Onizuka usually shows a perverted, immature side and irreverent thug attitude, resorting to questionable, if not illegal methods with his students; Tatsu instead abhors violence, takes everyday tasks overly seriously and uses his skills and knowledge to actually improve himself, his household and his neighborhood. read more

The Fable addpermalink

(other way around cause MaL coding is ass)
Essentially similar situations where MCs half-retire from the yakuza world and find themselves challenged as they've become regular citizens. I really recommend The Fable as it has an amazing balance of chill SoL mixed with profound yakuza-surroundings where MC has to interfere in other to avoid consequences, furthermore the cast solely consists of adults if you're tired of annoying children lol

One Punch-Man addpermalink

Both manga follow their respective strongest person in their stories world, with Gokushufudou prioritising the home living comedic aspects that One Punch Man does so well.

Just replace the 'World's strongest Hero' with 'Japan's strongest Yakuza member'

They are similar in the sense that the chapters for both series are short and episodic.
The comedy is similar and the MCs are alike.

Meitantei Conan: Zero no Tea Time addpermalink

Make food, not crime.
The everyday life of a badass, but actually super nice dude (secret agent/former yakuza) who's equally skilled in murder and macarons. Husband material indeed.
Short episodic antics with mouth-watering dishes, cute pets, unvulgar humour and a chill slice of life vibe.

Chichi to Ko addpermalink

They both are the daily lives of past delinquents/yakuza. One loves his wife very much and the othe loves his son AND his wife very much. Both are really cute and fluffy. Chichi to ko has a typical shoujo art style while Gokushufudou has a darker, more seinen art style.

Okay, Hwajin & Tatsu’s character match in some way. And yes, I do sound ridiculous, BUT I ENJOYED THE NETFLIX VERSION OF “GOKUSHUFUDOU” MORE BUT- here we are. However you HAVE to try “Get Schooled”. Even if you’re an actual ghost and you can’t afford a phone and are in my dad’s garage right now. Like, okay, take my phone, TAKE WHATEVER JUST READ >:(

Not exactly a similar premise when it comes to the characters, but anybody who enjoyed Tadakuni, Hidenori, Yoshitake and co.'s antics will undoubtedly be entertained by the comedy gold in Gokushufudou.

Crazy Food Truck addpermalink

New leaf. Gokushufudou and Crazy Food Truck both follow an incredibly dangerous person, who decided it would be better in life to do something a bit more out of the danger zone.

Tatsu and Gordon are in the same boat with passing over their ex-mafia and ex-militant days respectively into following a stranger, but more calm life of being a househusband and an owner of a food truck.

Both are good manga with comedic elements to them too. Though Crazy Food Truck is more action-packed than Gokushufudou.

The Children's Teacher, Mr. Kwon addpermalink

Stories about characters who for some reasons were in the illegal industry, and were able to abandon this life and get their dream job. In Goku the dreamjob is to be a housewife, ans in The children's Teacher is to be an teacher <.<. Their life would be perfect with their dream life, however sometimes they are confronted by some problems related to their old life.

The main diference between these two stories is the tone, in Goku the plot is more oriented for a slice of life comedy daily life, while the childrens teacher is oriented to a more serious drama, where you will follow the protagonist journey in his new way of life. read more

Heiwa no Kuni no Shimazaki e addpermalink

Chores after crimes.
Both manga involve mysterious, scary yet adorably awkward apron-wearing men in ordinary situations, showing how they try to adapt to a big life change day by day, interacting with (and learning from) other people - usually all while enemies and police officers are stalking them. Several wholesome moments that almost make you forget they could easily snap their opponents in half. Realistic scenarios + amusing outcomes in episodic chapters, supported by simple but appealing art styles.
Shimazaki, about a former green beret and his teammates, has a more serious/dangerous mood in a workplace setting, while Gokushufudou is focused on the hilarious family life of a retired yakuza. read more

Spy x Family addpermalink

Both comedies are about a man with a questionable past, who must get accustomed to his now "boring" life as a husband. Of course, things rarely go his way and hilarity ensues. Don't expect too much from the stories, since both are fairly predictable. They're good for a laugh, though

Yakuza no Oshigoto addpermalink

Similar plot lines - a hard core yakuza gives up his life of blood, violence and death as soon as he finds a purpose in his life. Both stories are cute and funny takes at how a yakuza adjusts to the life of a normie.

Grand Blue addpermalink

Both have a sort of down to Earth comedy that rely on contrasting facial expressions. While they vary wildly in their approach to story, the way they utilize comedy makes me think of them in a similar vain. Though it should be noted that Gokushufudou doesn't utilize Ecchi while Grand Blue does.
