Both are a caothic type shonen and Dandadan is written by a Fujimoto ex-assistant 

reportRecommended by Koyuuki_

There is certainly a noticeable comparison between the two series’ styles. Mostly in just some of the absurd things that happen, the randomness, etc. 

The usual obtaining a demons power in chapter 1 and controlling it is in both series as well.. 

reportRecommended by SteamedPlague

Both series offer unique experiences within the supernatural genre, with Chainsaw Man providing a darker, more intense narrative and Dandadan delivering a lighter, more comedic take on the paranormal. Fans of each series may appreciate the contrasting approaches to storytelling and thematic exploration.

it's got the weird creature design, the fight scenes where everything is flying and everyone's screaming and a story full of kindness and with very touching moments

Both have some of the most utterly absurd panels I have seen in manga 

reportRecommended by Arch1bold

Built different, insane, immersive and so, so fun 

reportRecommended by FizzyGoldTing

the story is simmilar 

reportRecommended by kakkoui1226

while dandadan has its own merit as a separate story, you can clearly see where the author took inspiration from his time as fujimoto's assistant  

reportRecommended by hamifihekrix

They handle a similar humor, and the role of each protagonist is also similar, the drawing style is similar to a certain extent, only that in Dandadan the panels are cleaner than in chainsaw man, It's really entertaining, just like with chainsaw man you're going to have a good time while you're reading it. 

reportRecommended by ImDerry

Over the top crazy story characters and relationships are written in a similar style. 

reportRecommended by Spauldoe

its similar cause they both peak 

reportRecommended by fax-machine

The author of Dandadan was a assistent to Fujimoto, the author of Chainsaw man, and it shows. Both are makes one questing if they were high or something, when making their story. I would describe them as "WTF!?". 
But they have a heartfelt story mist the craziness they display. They have teenagers that actually feel like teenagers and like real people. They are crazy, yet have realistic characters.  

reportRecommended by Julishima

Monobola protagonists '-'
There is no way it can be bad
Very nice art and psychedelic fights, easy to like characters, and a rather bizarre manga 

reportRecommended by LypeZym

Both have the feeling of never knowing what happens on the next episode 

reportRecommended by Vrile

Similar humor and atmosphere, both spirited/supernatural with unusual presentation for it 

reportRecommended by CudyTwitos

- similiar humor
- pleasing art style
- absurdity
- authors know eachother
- fun story w nice battle scenes
csm is more serious though 

reportRecommended by foilover

Dandadan is quite popular, but there are still people who haven't read it and should give it a try. The author worked together with tatsuki fujimoto on chainsaw man, which helped him create a story as good as chainsaw man. Without plagiarizing anything from csm, it is a very funny and interesting story, but above all very crazy and unpredictable, full of action and charismatic characters. That's why I think that if you liked chainsaw man you should go read dandadan, with similar ideas but treated in very different ways, besides having an amazing drawing.

Jujutsu Kaisen addpermalink

Both of these manga deal with spirits and the occult, but Dandadan has the added benefit of ALIENS. Also instead of having a Sukuna, a demon lord with insane power, stuck inside the mc, he has TURBO GRANNY, a horny overpowered super speedy grandma spirit, that makes the mc of dandadan super depressed. If u want sick action and hilarious character chemistry, and you like jujutsu kaisen Dandadan is for you.

Jigokuraku addpermalink

Great art, very kinetic action.
Mix of comedy, action with horror, Jigokuraku leaning more horror, Dandadan more comedy.  
Weird sense of humor, it must be the Fujimoto brand.
Creators worked together as Tatsuki Fujimoto's assistants on Fire Punch.
Yukinobo Tatsu was assistant on Jigokuraku.

While Gantz have a darker tone, Dandadan is more light hearted. Both have ailens/monsters and both have the characters fight in closed off realitys.

Manga: Ano Hito no I ni wa Boku ga Tarinai

Ano Hito no I ni wa Boku ga Tarinai addpermalink

Sachi's Monstrous Appetite and Dandadan are two supernatural comedy manga aimed at men with a similar level of satisfying chemistry between a young boy and an equally young but rather unusual girl. The two are tied together by a set of supernatural circumstances that force them to get involved, starting a whole series of hilarious hijinks, moments with romantic subtext, and pretty cool paranormal storytelling. Both of their style of humor might be considered too immature and/or sexually-oriented for some though.

Action packed crazy stories with a lot of light humor on the side. 

reportRecommended by datadog

Ghost Fixers addpermalink

Both series follow two co-MCs (male and female) with contrasting personalities going up against the supernatural. Dandadan is more "episodic" in nature (as in the arcs tend to be self-contained) while Ghost Fixers puts a lot more emphasis on an overarching narrative.

Both stories follow teenage girls who can see ghosts
Both are dark comedies 
Both have very expressive art, and horrific portrayals of the supernatural
 

reportRecommended by Larcus

Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san addpermalink

The personality of the main leads of both shows are very similar to each other.  Okarun and 'Senpai' are both very introverted and share "otaku" traits, whilst Nagatoro and Momo have a more social and outgoing personality. If you are reading Dandadan waiting for Mokarun to happen, I suggest reading "Don't toy with me, Miss Nagatoro" to temporarily satisfy your desire to see two 2D characters date. :) 

reportRecommended by Bandszup

Mob Psycho 100 addpermalink

Both mangas involve psychic battles against ghosts and otherworldly beings, featuring incredibly endearing casts of characters and heartfelt moments. Although, Dandadan has a more crude and raunchy comedy style.

Both of these shounen manga have crazy creative powers and also somewhat similar artstyle.

One Punch-Man addpermalink

Remember that weird looking crab-man in One Punch man? 
Dandadan has similar sense of humor when designing enemies, and additional twists on its own. Instead of Mysterious beings there are aliens and spirits. And some people having superpowers. Anyways if you enjoyed OPM, you might find Dandandan fun, too.

Undead Unluck addpermalink

Both manga can start off a bit wacky, but get very emotional and hype. Most glaring Similarity is that they both go through multiple genres of manga. Characters are what make both of the manga.
