Though tonally different, with Cells at Work being a high-stakes action narrative and Saint Young Men being a humorous slice of life narrative, both series have the wonderful quality of being entertainingly educational. Reading about the fights in Cells at Work familiarise you with the inner workings of the human body, whilst the funny skits in Saint Young Men introduce you to concepts in Christianity, Buddhism, and Japanese culture.

Zetsubou Sensei is this manga's polar opposite. Where this manga is surprisingly wholesome, SZS is dark and cynical. Where these are both similar is the top notch comedic writing, and use of referential humor. Both manga have literally gotten me to laugh at their gags out loud.

Both feature the daily lives of mystical beings. Saint Oniisan focuses on Jesus and Buddha, while Hozuki is about the staff of Japanese hell, but they have a similar sense of humor regarding things that should seem completely ordinary. Both bring in other famous mythological figures and are a lot of fun to read.

When I read Arakawa under the bridge the surreal humour striked me as quite pecular. I felt like I got a similar feel from another manga before. I checked the author/artist and ... yep... It's the one from Saint Young Men! Both have similar humour. In good kind of way.

The similarity in these two series arises from their exploration of holy beings. In the case of Kamisama Kazoku, we are introduced to a family of god and his angels. In the case of Saint Young Men, we follow Jesus and Buddha in contemporary Japan.
