Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan

In a certain sense, Saiki can be considered as the "male" version of Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun, since while Nozaki parodies the shoujo's tropes, setting and characters, Saiki does the same, only with works for the shonen audience. The only difference is that Nozaki is strongly focused on romance and sometimes are sentimental, while Saiki always remains a gag comedy with an unceasing parody and humor.

While Saiki Kusuo is parodying Shonen tropes, Gekkan Shoujo is parodying shoujo tropes.
Both have a similar type of humour, a collection of random story in one episode, and the characters are really unique.
The comparison between characters is like this
Saiki -> Nozaki
Teruhashi -> Chiyo
Mikoshiba -> Kaidou
I highly recommended both anime since it will make you laugh out loud alone in your quite room

High school anime paroding stereotypical characters and their relationships.
What else can I say.. The type of humor, the lenght of episodes (or "sketches"), typical "highschool" situations, unrequited love... If you were falling off your chair with laughter because of one, the same will probably happen with the other.
You need some experience of-fu watching cliche anime to enjoy these shows to the fullest. Plus both main characters are immune to falling in love. Nice comedies.
Both the Nozaki dub and Saiki K. can be interpreted as the everyday life of ace and/or romantic people, both of which have quite a fair bit of aromantic comedy that parody a lot of rom-com troupes. They have other very diverse humor as well with Nozaki-kun having a diverse cast while Saiki K. centers mostly around Saiki and his parody-like SCs

If you enjoyed 'The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.', you're likely to find 'Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun' equally entertaining. Both series thrive on comedy derived from the interactions between the protagonist and their eccentric circle of friends. In each show, a 'regular guy' is thrust into a world filled with peculiar characters, resulting in a fresh and amusing experience with every episode.
Both make fun of manga tropes

Both highschool comedies that aren't that romantic.
(They give off the same vibe)

This seems weird at first, but these two shows are super similar. Saiki and Nozaki are uncannily similar, and the dynamic of each show's cast works in nearly the same way. If you want a good laugh, both of these have great dry humour that I seriously loved.
