oddball immortal mc, interesting character design, weird, cool fight scenes
Both protagonist seems to have barely "nothing to lose" and both accepts an offer that can't be refused if they want to live, an offer presented by a strong but kind-manipulative female figure. The setting though is really different since chainsaw man is in a modern world and Jigokuraku in a Edo samurai old scenario.
Both are fantastic adaptations by MAPPA.
Both are grimdark with no plot armor. Excellent writing, pacing and gorgeous animation.
Both are fantasy battle series with demonic terrifying monsters.
Both are deep series with excellent character development.
If you love one, the other will be the perfect next watch. ❀

Similarities:
The same character plot where special people found themselves drafted in to performing special task.
The same situation where special guy is partnered with a female boss.
Dissimilarities:
One anime was set in some alternate world where demons roam and wreak havoc in the populace.
The other one was set in early Japan shogunate where the characters were tasked to investigate a certain place, where danger lurks.

-Both are dark-fantasy battle shounen manga animated by Mappa, with lot of fights, blood and emotive moments.
-Kaku Yuji (Jigokuraku) was assistant of Tatsuki Fujimoto (Chainsaw Man) during 2016-2018, so his work is really influenced by Fujimoto's Style.
-While in Chainsaw Man, humans use the power of the Pacts and Devils' Heart to counter the Devils, in Jigokuraku humans learn to use the power of TAO to counter the "Tensen". (Short words in both series the human protagonists fight fire with fire.)

Both shows include a male protagonists at a low point in life who are willing to take dangerous and sketchy offers in order to survive. They are also both persuaded by seemingly sweet but manipulative female "boss" characters.
Lots of blood and gore within the fight scenes. Both include monsters or otherwordly enemies.
Character devlopment for many people is seen in both.
The only major difference is that Chainsaw Man takes place in a very modern setting whereas Jigokuraku is a historical show.
Jigokuraku ( Hell's Paradise ) and Chainsaw Man shares kind of same story line and the fight scenes are amazing . Characters also are same in nature just Gabimaru is Married xD...
i would suggest you guys to watch it for sure
