Both shows are about Yakuza/Ex-Yakuza men who are put into a position of having to take responsibility for something. Taking care of a household and taking care of a (very difficult) child. The comedy in both comes primarily from these main men trying their best in these fairly normal situations, but bringing their Yakuza knowledge into the fray. If you enjoyed the ridiculous scenarios that came from Hinamatsuri, especially those relating to the gang itself, you will very likely enjoy Househusband.
Yakuza's got to adapt and faces challenges -- both are hilarious and easy watches

Comedy about Yakuza tough guys in contrasting domestic situations (Gokushu about a husband, and Hinamat about a step father)
Both shows follow around a (ex) yakuza and their daily lives of life after leaving/drifting from the yakuza lifestyle. Gokushufudou and Hinamatsuri both show a (ex) yakuza's domestic life, with Hinamatsuri showing him being a father figure and raising a little girl, and Gokushufudou depicting his day-to-day scenarios of being a house husband. Along with similar scenarios of a Yakuza's new life and keeping his gang life/past sperate from his domestic life, they are both comedy slice-of-life, depicting smaller scenes and scenarios in each episode. While Hinamatsuri was more tender and to-the-heart, both had charming and likeable characters in fun scenarios.
