Golden Boy and GTO have similar humor and style. When I watched GTO I kept thinking about how it reminded me of Golden Boy. Both of these animes deal with comical perverted guys who you just can't help but love.
The same humor and style. Main characters: Eikichi and Kintaro are very similar.
GTO and Golden Boy are extremely similar in style and humor - both feature honest and hardworking leads who will go to great lengths to make a difference in another person's life. And both are prone to trouble, especially when women are involved.
The two shows have their differences though - they're similar enough that I'm absolutely sure anyone who enjoys one should watch the other, but not so similar that either feels like a ripoff.
Very similiar main lead, art style and humor.
The humor is pretty much the same and Onizuka and Kintaro are both somehow obsessed with women.
Onizuka Eikichi from GTO and Oe Kintaro from Golden Boy are very similar characters. That goes for their personalities and even applies to things such as the facial expressions they make. They are both perverted guys who act goofy most of the time but when it comes down to it, they always deliver and save the day.
The art and animation style for the these series are also very similar and the same goes for the style of the voice actors.
Story-wise, Golden Boy is very episodic. Each episode is about a completely different scenario while in GTO the story is ongoing from beginning to end. Of course this makes sense seeing as how Golden Boy is a 6 episode OVA while GTO is a 43 episode series.
Overall, it is impossible to watch both titles and not see the similarities as they apply to the characters, the art and animation, and the style of humor.
Consider both titles under the category of "must watch".
There both funny as hell!!!
Both of the protagonists are very similar, and both have their own ways of solving problems that they have. Golden Boy is very cerebral and plays dumb under the mask of a pervert, while actually solving problems and 'studying'. Onizuka uses a certain amount of wit, but also relies on his past experience as a biker and gang leader to gain respect from his students, who rebel against him. Both have great comedy moments, but also touch on serious topics, although more so in GTO.
Both Golden Boy and Great Teacher Onizuka have the same kind of warm animation style and they both feature humorous male leads who frequently have all sorts of escapades involving women. If you liked Golden Boy's sort of humour, you will find more of it from GTO.
Additionally, if you liked Golden Boy but wish to see something with a more solid plot, this is a good candidate.
Golden Boy and Great Teacher Onizuka has a similar style and humour and the main guys is just so similar in every way and yeah they make the same facial expressions lol...
Both of the series involve a pervy protagonist who happens to get himself in loads of trouble but always gets away learning something or teaching something to someone else. Both protagonist make the most ridiculous faces that add to the charm of the series. If you like the brand of humor that Onizuka has, then golden boy is a great companion to the type of humor. Both are very inspiring and have a great spirit that make them a great watch. Sadly the series is a bit short but very worthy of a try.
Slice of life, ~18-25 age group of main characters, male lead characters, mature themes, both have a lot of comedy, and voluptuous females.

Ooo...k.. Do NOT expect it to be GTO! It's a comedy with an interesting story. The ideea is basicaly the same: a teacher with a controvertial story in their lives (Onizuka ex-biker, Gokusen relations with yakuza). This is considered the female version of GTO. It's a MUST if you saw GTO but it's not GTO by a long shot.
Both of these shows follow the same formula, featuring a rough-around-the-edges new teacher reaching out to problem students who eat normal teachers for breakfast. GTO is the funnier of the two by a long shot, but they're both quite good.
Both of these anime portray a teacher in a leading role, with GTO having a male lead while Gokusen having a female lead. Both are focused on how the teacher solves the problems that the students may have, though the problems you see in Gokusen may be a little more "tame", i.e. a tad bit less serious and realistic, than the ones dealt with in GTO.
Both are stories about a teacher who is really bad ass who becomes a teacher for a JD class. GTO is much more perverted then Gokusen, and the main character is a guy (obviously). Gokusen's main character is a girl.
Almost the same art. Both main characters were gang members and want to be a teacher.
Both animes feature a gangster backed wanna be teacher,who actually succeeds to overcome the disorganized students and teach them some respect. Where GTO has male, Gokusen goes with a female teacher.
Teachers, gangsters, life. Makes for a great anime.
Teachers who are members of a gang that wanted to change their life for good, they help those stubborn teenager students who are going to the wrong path & lead them to the right path.
Both series have the troubled class and unorthodox teacher theme.
2 different senarios, Same problematic class.
Both teachers try their very best to bring their students back on the right track.
But "GTO" give you 10x the fun! =D

Both have a good sense of humor, and Zetsubou sensei is like Onizuka sensei, only emo.
Teacher+ many students with problems... this feels just like GTO
Great slice of life coming from a teacher xD

The anime themselves aren't really alike at all, however if you liked the main character of one, you'll like the other. They're both funny and great in a fight, and overall feel almost like the same character.
If Spike Spiegel was a teacher...

both have a delincuent its the main character and both are to die laughing.
... and of course both happens in the school
They're both very very funny anim's, their humor is VERY similar but GTO is a bit more perverse at times. Also both are episodic in nature (meaning there's no MAIN plot, just a couple plots that last a couple episodes each with themes).

Although the stories are completely different, the style of comedy and animation are quite similar.
Another longish tv serie, filled with great comedy and similar style animation.

Both series have about the same comedy-drama ratio (well at least for the first half of NHK, it later turns to mostly drama). Both also deal with many serious issues, but never fail to deliver on humor either. Also both series have something other comedies usually don't, a heart. There's a real heart to them both. Also both series have some pervy humor in them, but also other types as well. Also I just think both series would apeal to the same type of person.
There is a difference however. NHK relies on a lot of dark homor, and turns into more of a drama then anything else, and it;s truly for the better. It becomes a much better show for it. GTO doesn't use dark humor, and never really turns into a drama, but it does get a little more serious as it goes on.

Okay seriously now, if you liked Kamina in TTGL then you will fall head over man-heels for Onizuka. Kamina was pretty good but Onizuka is as manly as it gets, and it's a shame that many people are oblivious to it. If you're looking for a series for MEN, then you need to get into GTO. Preferably the manga but the anime is fine too.

Kodocha and Great Teacher Onizuka are very similar. For example they are both very funny, yet can get very serious at times. Neither series ruins the mood with humor, but works it into the plot at the right parts, and with a bit of great directing, both series pull this off very well. Both series have about the same mixture of Comedy and Drama that makes them very great series overall. Both series also have a good story to tell and never feel corny or goofy, and the drama can get really good! Both series also have high replay value. They also tend to deal with similar themes at times. Both series being from the 1990's also have a bit of dated animation, and just "feel" the same. They are in the same "spirit and style" you could say.
Kodocha is a little more "fast paced" and "off the wall crazy humor" but it still has some GTO type humor, and the comedy/drama mixture is pretty much the same. Although GTO can get fast paced every once in awhile, a lot of the humor is a bit laid back (although not Cowboy Bebop style laid back, but close). GTO is very manly, while Kodocha is a little girly, but both will work for both genders who watch them, no worries. Nothing in either show to turn off either gender. GTO is a little more "mature" however, and I find it to be the greater of the two (so far). But both are great series. if you love one, check out the other.

Apart from the main characters being completely random, both series having re-occurring characters and a similar style of humor, there are not too many similarities. However, if you like either of these series, your almost guaranteed to love the other! Both start out fairly slow, so watch at least the first 5 episodes and you WILL be hooked.

Both main characters (Kintaro and Onizuka) are former leaders of a widely feared and respected gang who are trying to become a part of society (in their own way :) ).
Both series are good comedy.

Comedies with with cool main characters. Another than that and the tendesy that ppl who like GTO liked Tenshi isn`t there, I think :?
|
|
|
both hilarious and main charactes have some personality.
|
|
|
Although the settings are completely different I feel that Trigun and GTO feel very much the same. Both main characters can get themselves out of any situation!

Both of them show comedy and how to deal with kids in there classrooms. They have a unique way to handle the student and also create a bond with them. They make a few of these student change there ways and there attitudes are completely opposite. Onizuka is a happy go lucky person and Zetsubou Sensei is filled wtih despair... These 2 are very funny school life animes as teachers that run the classroom, also there seem to be a blond chick in both of them that are smart...

They both have very irresponsible people who everything works out for and are vital to the people around them success. They are impossible to fire.They both have a love plot that never develops. They are very funny and have a fun feel to them. GTO the main character will try, but in ICT he doesn't appear to give it any effort.

The first thing I thought of when I was watching Maid Guy was Great Teacher Onizuka. Both are great comedies.
