Before there was Assassination Classroom there was GTO or Great Teacher Onizuka, but there is a chance we wouldn't even have Assasination Classroom if weren't for GTO as this was one of the first series to focus on a teacher having a positive effect on their students who are best described as the worst of the worst for any number of reasons, or in the very least it is the first to really stand out. The methods are certainly unconventional and could lead to certain ramifications for said teacher.

Both represent school life where there's a hierarchy depending on wich class you're in. MC aren't that similar but still you can connect them regarding some personality traits.  
report Recommended by MrParadise
Both are similar in that they both feature a class taught by an outstanding teacher (All Might/Koro-sensei) with an objective goal in mind. In My Hero Academia, it's all about becoming heroes. In Assassination Classroom, it's all about becoming assassins. Even the main characters are similar: Nagisa and Izuku both wanting to aspire to be like their teachers, violent geniuses Karma and Bakugou, and the cheerful, hardworking Kayano and Uraraka.

Both shows involve a class of high school students who are suddenly forced into a situation where they have to kill to survive, although in Danganronpa they are killing each other instead of a specific target like in Ansatsu Kyoushitsu. Both have a quirky, nonhuman antagonist and use a weird blend of humor and darker elements. The main protagonist of both series is a typical weak-looking guy who is actually quite perceptive and smart. The art style is also somewhat similar.

Both shows involve a "special" class of high school students who are given a target to assassinate by a certain time period. While Akuma no Riddle is less humorous and has an all-female cast, Ansatsu Kyoushitsu uses more quirky humor and a target that is virtually indestructible. Both series have a blue-haired protagonist who is level-headed and competent at what they do.

Assassination Classroom is about a school's class E (the lowest class in their prestigious school) being assigned a top secret mission to kill their teacher, a bizarre happy-go-lucky alien octopus, by the Japanese government. Their teacher plans to destroy the Earth by next March if they fail their task. Gintama is about a misfit trio who work as Jack of all Trade types in a strange Edo-like era with up-to-date gadgets that has humans and aliens from all walks of life. The situations in both series are random and unpredictable and both shows are absolutely ridiculous, yet really funny. Assassination Classroom would fit right into  read more

While "Another" is more horror and "Ansatsu Kyoushitsu" - more humorous, both stories involve a class which is being avoided by others. These two animes also involve a certain "ritual", which is done by the whole class, for example killing Koro-sensei in "Ansatsu Kyoushitsu" and ignoring a certain student in "Another".

Both of these anime are pretty much based around a class of rejected students who are put into their own rejected class (or dorms) away from the main campus, who learn to accept their place in the school system as rejects. We watch the two classes work towards their end goal, which is, though a little different between the two shows, ultimately to graduate and figure out what they want to do in the next stage in their lives.

If you enjoied "Ansatsu Kyoushitsu" you could start watching "Spy Kyoushitsu" Here are some similarity of the anime I like: 1. Both have an overpowered teacher you have to beat 2. Both have some sort of classroom 3. Both contain students who are washouts and the "losers". Since only the first episode is out, I can't tell much about it. But I have the feeling you might enjoy it, if you like any of these aspects. In my case, it really worked out. I like these concepts. Recommendation goes in both ways, basically.

They both have two Hilarious main characters who are both OP and trying to find a more challenging opponent to match up with their skills. Koro Sensei is trying to find a student who can kill buy the time his students graduate and Saitama after realizing he is too strong is getting bored of killing villains with One punch so in the end he is still trying to find a challenging opponent. Both Stories are VERY good and action packed. Also Saitama and Koro-Sensei are both teachers. They're both great shows to watch!

The main character in both is a supernatural/ultrapowerful being who can pretty much do whatever it wants. It will be a hard time killing either Korosensei or Sebastian. Comedy also plays a huge part in both shows, although the humor in Black Butler is much darker. Both series also have huge casts.

-Both deal with themes of growing up and understanding yourself -Both are riddled with comedy at first, but turn into emotional roller coasters in their second seasons -Both prominently feature a student-teacher relationship -Both also feature lots of side characters who get their own arcs, helping to flesh out the world as one where not just our main characters are troubled by conflict

These shows aren't too similar in terms of plot, but I feel that if you loved the characters and their relationships in one show, you will like the other. As both of these series progress, I found Koro-Sensei (Assassination Classroom) and Dazai (Bungo Stray Dogs) to be very similar in personality and past experiences that shaped them into the person they've become. I also found Akutagawa (Bungo Stray Dogs) to be very similar to The Reaper (Assassination Classroom), and Oda Sakunosuke (Bungo Stray Dogs) played a very similar role to Aguri Yukimura (Assassination Classroom) in encouraging Koro-Sensei and Dazai to change their way of life.

Crew. Assassination Classroom and Dr Stone follow characters who have this great connection between each and every individual, regardless of who is an MC or side character. Assassination Classroom focuses on class 3-E teamwork to kill Koro-sensei. Dr Stone follows Senku's plan to remake the world from its shambles of the stone age it had gone back too. In a sense too both Koro-sensei and Senku are really smart people too. Both are good shounen anime with great comedy, Dr Stone giving the action of the brains, Assassination Classroom doing so with the action of trainee assassins.

Both shows follow a character that is intent on taking over/destroying the world. However in the process of doing so this character takes on the position of a job. Similar styles of humor as both have a lot of jokes centered around the main character's career option. The Devil is a Part-Timer! features a lot of jokes about fast food while Assassination Classroom features a lot of classroom humor. Despite the intentions of the main characters both are actually very likable characters and some of the jokes come from how they interact with other characters.

Both series revolve around a surprisingly nice living natural disaster, both of whom have enormous bounties on their heads, and take a pacifist approach despite how easily they could kill anyone and everyone who stands in their way. Both characters caused widespread disaster in their backstory for reasons that are kept hidden. Their motivation revolves around a woman in their backstory whose significance is kept vague. They also have a brother with similar abilities, who they are enemies with.

Let me explain before you type l + ratio + bad recommendation. In both animes, the main character wishes to kill someone; Nagisa wishes to kill his teacher in order to prevent the end of the world, and Thorfinn wishes to kill the person who murders his father. But there's a catch: Nagisa's teacher is a monster capable of flying at speeds of up to Mach 20, and the person who murders Thorfinn's father is extremely powerful and experienced. Both anime have a distinct vibe, but that doesn't mean you'll only enjoy one of them.

Both anime have characters who guide others to grow as people. In ReLIFE this is a student and in Assassination Classroom it is a teacher, though both draw wisdom from their own life experiences. While both are set in school, ReLIFE makes more use of the school setting since a big part of Assassination Classroom is their physical training.

Both have in common a teacher/tutor whose main aim is to turn bad students into excellent students, while being caring about them and looking for different perspectives and approaches for each learner. Other than that, and the fact they are both school anime, they are fairly different, Gotoubun is more of a Harem romcom, while Ansatsu Kyoushitsu is a Shounen.

Both of them have lighthearted comedic themes, so it's not difficult to appreciate both. The comedy of both shows pulls from outside references very well, which I enjoy a lot. The SOL aspects make a lighthearted casual show. I think many fans will appreciate how much love each member of the cast gets. With larger casts, it can be difficult to develop each character well, but I feel like it's easy to understand each of them.

Both shows offer a relaxing slice of life vibe while offering relatable characters (if you can ignore the fact that Ansatsu Kyoushitsu has a yellow octopus admist it all). Plus each show uses their medium (farming or assassination) to develop their characters while tackling real world issues on top of having large amounts of humor.
