Both are old animes with lots of violence, action and violence on it. Two masterpieces of the gender and same goes for the manga that you won't stop reading/watching before it's over.
Dark ages in both anime as the main content, supernatural or just physical brutal figths, one that acts like an bastard and another one thats just goe´s berserk overall, NOT for the weakhearted!

Both anime are based on typical 80's shounen manga, full of badass characters and exaggerated manliness. Both series also have several characters and techniques named after heavy metal and rock bands/musicians.
(e.g. Dark Scheneider - named after Udo Dirkschneider, former Accept's vocalist; Dio Brando - named after Ronnie James Dio, former Black Sabbath's vocalist)

Bastard and Detroit Metal City are from different genres. But both pays a homage to heavy metal icons and sub-culture.

Powerful and virtually unbeatable protagonists kicking some ass while trying to maintain order in a world full of magical powers and occultism.

Similar humor, Enma-kun has more chaotic jokes though. Main characters have similar personalities - both are conceited, lecherous and unprincipled hotheads who use overpowered magic.

Kazushi Hagiwara is the creator of Bastard!! was very involved with the creation of Bakuen Campus Guardress. Guardress features his character designs of busty babes and virile men. Guardress also features the same perverted sense of humor as Bastard!!

Both come from the early 90's so have similar animation styles. Both deal with the supernatural, demons, and magic. They are gory and violent.

both have a hot headed hero adventuring with a quirky young girl whom he meets in the first episode. both heroes' past has a tragic story with a mature angst woman who comes back to haunt them in their present life.

While not comparable in quality, both OVAs take place in a similar fantasy world, with similar elements like sorcery, beasts, knights, etc. The art is similar as well.

Zenki and Bastard seem to have the same enitial storyline...
A medevil sorcerer, protecting a girl, living, for the most part, in the body of a little boy.
Both sorcerers seem to share a similar background (evil in their day) and the same quirky personality traits, both can return to their old form when very annoyed.
If you like one, watch the other, they are so, so similar.

Same style but short and without humor

If you liked the main character in Bastard you will also like the main character in Sorcerer on the Rocks (Chivas 1-2-3) as they are almost the same. That attitude, mind and absolutely overwhelming power is there as well. The world in which these series take place is also almost identical dealing with wizards and magic.
Bastard is a bit longer as Chivas has only 2 episodes but non the less as they are very similar if you liked one of them you will enjoy the other.
