They aren't similar at all in terms of story. But both have Remi and Jim as main protagonist who goes on their journey. Both have awesome Mentors as well Vitalis & John Silver. Also Both series have same production staff and director that's how I find them similar. I recommend to watch both of them.

I know it's weird recommendation. But both have similar protagonist. Both Godai & Joe Yabuki grows mature in series as time progresses. Aside from their genres. I find then quite similar in terms of character development in both Protagonist. If you like Ashita no Joe, you should give Maison Ikkoku a chance.

They both have similar settings and romance except the high school and baseball. But both of them have heart wrenching love stories. Even though Maison Ikkoku have a better ending.
