Manly martial artists who are perfecting their respective fighting style. Both heroes are very brash & comical while also developing an odd friendship with a Nazi.

Buff and big main character meets characters along the way, beats up characters along the way and makes a very impactful presence among the ones he faces.

Both have nazis. The difference is that in JoJo they are cyborg nazis.

JJBA Battle Tendency and Jigokuraku are similar in many ways, such as setting, theme where as I would have to agree that both Protagonist's personalities are different. But I can assure that If you liked Battle Tendency then You will definitely like Jigokuraku.

I'm pretty sure barong gong is based in battle tendecy: They have the same vibes and a lot of similarities: -Both main characters are tall, muscular, charismatic, crafty, handsome and antiheroic -Neo human and pillarmen are basically the same -Involves nazis -Battles are decided by intelligence more than by power -A lot of violence and political incorrect -Both stories are the same length more less (7 and 9 volumes) -Similar plot -The artstyle is a bit similar There are even more, but it would be spoilers

Hokuto no Ken was one of the main inspirations that made Hirohiko Araki write JoJo, that's why both series share a lot of similarities, both thematically and stylistically. First off, the art styles are quite similar. Also, they have similar elements, and are filled with manly battles, valiant sacrifices, and tragic moments.

Both manga feature main characters that find themselves caught on the opposing side of supernatural enemies of skill and power far beyond theirs and both use quick wits and brilliant tactics to defeat their monstrous adversaries. Great battles with brilliant tactical execution featured here, something most battle manga seem to lack.

An earlier piece of Araki's works, the character of BT and his antics in Mashounen BT can be seen as being very similar to that of Joseph Joestar in Battle Tendency; both characters make use of trickery, deception, cleverness, and impressively immense amounts of luck to come out as the victor in the conflicts that they face.

Of all the parts found in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, I feel Battle Tendency had the greatest emphasis on family bearing a similar tone to Ultimate Muscle aka Kinnikuman Nisei. Both contain story arcs centered on the descendants of heroic families such as the Zeppelis, the Joestars, the Robin Dynasty, & the Kinniku Clan, etc. These manga carry the spirit of manly 80's shonen with emphasis on camaraderie and multiple bizarre events throughout the story.

Both are wilfully ridiculous and over-the-top macho silliness revolving around seemingly idiotic protagonists who both have an excellent knack for gambits. 
reportRecommended by Lindle
Both manga feature strong protagonists, who have to defeat seemingly invincible enemies who threaten humanity. Both have a lot of over the top action and some comedy.
