The anime have very similar fast paced zaney action and over the top comedy. The art style and use of colours can also be thought to be similar. Definitely both are worth a watch.
These shows are very similar in their over the top nature. Kill la Kill is very high energy and constant action, whereas FLCL has it's moments of peace. Both these shows are very interesting and fun to watch.

Similar art styles and whackiness make Kill la Kill a must-try for FLCL fans.
FLCL and Kill la Kill are the epitomes of craziness with their delivery.
Both series possess an explosive energy that will draw you in with their action, comedy, drama, and dialogues. By explosive standards, both shows go beyond logic and intensify themselves with their artwork and characters.
Both series' main female protagonists also possess a high degree of energy that unleashes itself like a time-ticking bomb. Their artwork is also similar along with their stunning soundtracks.
These two anime have similar art styles, and both deal with adolescence (FLCL with a boy and Kill La Kill with a girl). They also both have crazy fight scenes, and similar humor.
If you're looking for the craziness similar to Flcl then look no further, the action is crazy and pretty much throws logic out the window.
The soundtrack on both are awesome, but Flcl easily takes the cake with its amazing soundtrack. They also share that Over-the-top nature.
Both are full of high-action ridiculousness and randomness. The animation is also similar and so is the comedy.
Kill la Kill and FLCL are both just all-round really fun to watch.

Wild animation, bizarre plotlines, cool characters, and sweet soundtracks.
If you liked the oddity of FLCL, Kill la Kill delivers its fair share of strangeness, though in a much more direct format. Its humor has a lot of basis in cartoonish antics, fan service gags, and puns (so many puns). While definitely not sharing the surrealism of FLCL, it has a lot of the same attitude, and can be an enjoyable romp.
Notably, the two series share some production team members, including Hiroyuki Imaishi.
Fooly Cooly. One of the first animes I saw and one of the reasons I started my...well, obsession of wanting to watch anime all the time. I was always a little sad at how short Fooly Cooly was and how there weren't that many animes like it around. Then 12 years later Kill La Kill jumps into my life and fills the hole that was once in my heart. Imaishi, Hiroyuki strikes again. The art, random ass story, animation style, and comedy are VERY similar in these two anime. If you've seen FLCL or have been watching KLK I highly recommend the other. Really excited

The only real difference in these animes are the length. Everyone who watches anime(and even a lot that don't) should watch FLCL. It is a terrific coming of age story that seems so weird, but pulls you in none the less. Kill la Kill is just as weird. As such, it pulls you in just as much. The similarities are to high to measure. Kill la Kill is basically what happens when FLCL knocks up Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Just give it 6 years to gestate, and you have the birth of an amazing show. It never ceases to amaze me, the way older shows

Over the top insanity and nonsense. Similar art styles and fighting styles with bizarre characters that keep getting stronger and more bizarre. Basically the two shows are just some of the weirdest thingd you will ever watch and if you like that, then both of these are good for you.
They're both just crazy.
They're also extremely fun and essentially have you saying "I don't know what I'm watching but I love it!"

It's a wonder these two shows don't come from the same studio. Both anime have a strikingly similar overdramatic feeling, accentuated by changing soundtracks and ridiculous animation. And if you thought Kill la Kill's plot was hard to follow, you'll be blown away by FLCL's. The latter also has the advantage of much less fanservice.
Similar animation, characters, and have almost constant action, with a similar type of comedy
Both are action comedies with fast pacing, plot twist and overall craziness. They have similar art and similar feeling to them. Kill la Kill is more ecchi while FLCL is more dementia.
Both are over the top, and the animation and art style in Kill la Kill reminded me a lot of FLCL. They are both awesome animes!
I just watched the first episodes of both and around 7 minutes while starting to watch KLK some of the characters really gave me a FLCL vibe. They also have a significant weird factor, but FLCL takes it's dementia to the extreme.
These two shows can also be compared with Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann in terms of Gainax nature and soundtracks, with them having their own respective shining features. Those 3 shows = Gainax heaven. (But KLK was made by a different studio to be honest)

Both shows are very random that are both entertaining and hilarious and not meant to be taken seriously. Also, both have great conclusions and you fell satisfied after you complete the series.

Basically, the mix: Exciting animation, intense fight scenes, good music and a lot of non-sense makes one hell of a combination.

both series are good examples of Rule of Cool, which use this type of narrative to make a great Coming of Age.
FLCL and Kill la Kill have a very similar feeling, art style, and tone. The plots are very different, but they have the same kind of energy where everything is over the top, and anything can happen no matter what. While I like both, I will have to say Kill la Kill is the better one out of the two. FLCL is much weirder, but IMO it’s just too weird for no reason. Kill la Kill is a little bit scaled back in weirdness and is easier to comprehend as a result, but has more fanservice, so keep that in mind.

Both satirise the shonen action genre by being melodramatic and overly-exuberant. Furthermore, many of the animators and directors behind FLCL would find similar positions with Kill la Kill, resulting in visual styles which complement each other
You could call FLCL the predecessor of Kill la Kill.
They're both just as absurd, fast-paced and over the top "you either love it or hate it" kind of series that share a similar artstyle as well.
Lots of chaotic, and upbeat energy, with purposeful fanservice.

both have a whimsical animation style with charming characters, absurd and random humour as well as fanservice. female lead characters for both shows are mutually badass and the fight scenes are too. if you liked kill la kill's wacky humour and animation as well as action, you should definitely watch FLCL.

Very stylized and fast-paced direction and editing, a tongue-in-cheek tone, a similar sense of grandiosity, bombastic and nonsensical action, and heavy sexual themes.
Balls to the wall fast paced expressive animation sequences. Both great short series(FLCL Being too short) for people with short attention spans and a high tolerance for nonesense and absurdism with wholesome themes of friendship and being yourself. They're both just a vibe.
