Both series have a wide and diverse cast that each have their own in depth lore and association amongst others in the cast. Both series have gang vs enforcement vs focused character(s) that each compliment the other to progress the plot.
I think BSD fans will be pleased with ships, visuals, voice acting, and tragedies that are well loved within Stray Dogs itself.
(Plus there is background manga lore that really provides the emotions BSD early season 2 brought)

-Opposing groups of people with special powers.
-Clueless white-haired protagonist joins forces with the supernatural, only to discover something special about himself too.
-Very glossy and colourful scenery art.
-Decent fight animation.
-Typical anime slapstick humour.
-Large casts, meaning characters don't receive much development.
-No deep themes or plots, fitting for shallow entertainment.
The relationship between the Reds-Blues and the Armed Detective Agency-Port Mafia are similar. Both, while trying to defeat the other, don't show decisive action to finish the other. Both include a character who has switched from the more violent group to the more policing group.
Of course the powers people have are completely different, both anime are worth watching

Both are urban fantasies that revolve around the conflicts between various groups with supernatural powers. The main character is a kind, white-haired young man who gets pulled into the conflicts against his will, and soon discovers that he's more like these people than he thinks, with many people coming after him for one reason or another. They both have a predominantly male cast, but a fair share of female characters as well. Many of the characters can also be compared:
Atsushi=Shiro
Dazai=Saruhiko
Kyoka=Anna
Kunikida=Munakata
Fukuzawa=Kuroh
Ranpo=Izumo (sort of)
Chuuya=Misaki
Higuchi=Seri
Lucy=Neko
I prefer "Bungou Stay Dogs", as it has a better story, more developed characters and more memorable music, though "K" has better visuals.

This both are super power and supernatural's anime. Also, they have mistery and action. Some seiyuus share both animes, like Mamoru Miyano (Dazai, on BSD, Saruhiko, on K) or Jun Fukuyama (Ango, on BSD, Misaki, on K).
I have no reason to recommend this other than the fact that everyone I know who likes K is also in love with Bungou Stray Dogs and that's saying a lot because I know a lot of people who love K. Those are the facts bros.

Both are gang/mafia-related animes, enjoyable to read as it has elements of comedy and drama in it!

Bungou Stray Dogs is one of my favourite shows and after watching K it felt kind of similar. They both have a white haired protag that finds out a secret about themselves and get caught up in a battle between two groups.
The clans in K are quite similar to the groups in Bungou stray Dogs. The red clan is like the port mafia, they are violent and on the criminal side. The blue clan is alot like the Armed Detective Agency. They are there to protect people and are more ethical. There's also a similar dynamic with them. Although they are

Similar themes presented in both anime that both venture around the setting of a gang vs gang type of ordeal with the superpowers/action bits along with it.
