Both are outrageous series, with an over-the-top animation style and some ludicrous character designs. If you like one of them, you'd most likely enjoy the other.
This serious is full of ridiculousness and crazy fight scenes. It's by the director of Gurren Lagann and it truly shows. We get crazy outfits, villains and fight scenes that just make us think of fire through the flames!

Kill la Kill has many references to TTGL and is about a badass main character who obtains a special power to battle against the tyranny. Both are epic beyond imagination.
The similarities are astounding. The plot building, the characters, the animation, the universe, the humor, the simplicity in which things are explained to its barest minimum, the superpowers, and the philosophy so say some.
Lastly and to no ones surprise, the two shows are by the same creators.

Extremely dynamic and fast pace, pure and over exaggerated epicness and awesomeness, resulting in concentrated wtf and energy.
From the same director and writer, two series that will built you up emotionally in the beginning and captivate you in the end. Explosions abound and characters will be really memorable.
Those two shows should go together and actually by many are considered as set in one universe - the same adventurous spirit, the same riddiculous actions, many epic fights, unique, memorable characters. There is no end of that positive creaziness :D
TTGL and Kill la Kill are series by the same director so they retain the craziness, excitement, and wild epic battles that both perspective series share (minus the mecha part for KLK).
Both series have similar artwork with the main protagonists going out-all, odds against their adversaries.
The action presented from both of these series is over-the-top in the sense of craziness and insane movements. The main female protagonists also share a trait of being natural-born fighters with gifted talents.
There is also over the top comedy that both series share to deliver entertainment that you deserve.
Kill la Kill is the spiritual successor of Gurren Lagann. Made by Studio Trigger, which was composed of mostly the same crew that brought to you Gurren Lagann. There are some striking parallels between the characters (sometimes even the same voice actor). Fights are brought to ridiculous proportions of awesomeness. Both are quite random at the first half, but in the second half the plot gets moving.
It's made by the same makers and has the same drawing style. It is just as EPIC, and over the top but this one will makes you al ot more sexually frustrated ;) (In a good way)!

1: Perverted Scenes just like TTGL.

Both are very flashy and over the top, also share some of the same staff and style. They have blatant fanservice and characters aren't afraid to be silly.

I always thing like KLK takes place in TTGL universe yet they don't have mechs instead they have cloths. Made by different studios but animation is done by same person. Even story progress is same. They start at lowest.Somewhere near mid in anime a big downfall happens.Then they reach the highest.Oh and expect the near-same crayzness level for fights too.
If you look on it closer you will see that mechas and clothes are pretty the same, you get in them and get superpowers, jet-packs or other useful stuff to destroy super evil enemies.
It's all about nonsense.
Kill la Kill has the same feel as Gurren Lagann, From the over the top, bold character design, to the cheesy, loud motivational rants and one-liners. That being said, this is in no way a complaint. Though both can seem cheesy and "trope-y", they have so much more to them one you dedicate yourself. I would even say Kill la Kill is an awesome amalgamation of Gurren Lagann and FLCL(and if that isn't a recipe for success, i don't know what is.)

Very similar art styles in just about way from the character designs to the action to the fanservice. The action is always as over-the-top and nonsensical as it can possibly be and (almost) no one in the show ever finds it the least bit strange. Similar mixes of comedy and drama (most of the comedy comes the nonsensical parts). Strong people are extremely overpowered and keep getting stronger. Matoi is kind of a mix of Simon, Kamina, and Yoko all rolled into one girl.
-both are by the same director
-both deny logic and common sense and put forward ridiculousness
-both are epic to the MAX
-both have epic action
-both have similar art style
-both have crazy badass characters
-both are extremely exhilarating and exciting
Conclusion: If you liked one or the other, you will most likely/definitely like the other.

Same animations, same ridiculousness, same great character awesomeness. Both have great plots along with plot twists, and both have some really good scenes.
Both shows are very similar except some replacement so it isn't a copy.
similarities:
-plot goes from personal fight to galactic level
-similar plot twist and progression
-focusing on friendship
-will power is the strongest power
-instead mechas kill la kill has Goku uniforms
Differences:
-MC is female in Kill la Killa
-Kill la Killa has ecchi
-more cartoon style
If you are looking for a anime with a growing and epic stroyline like TTGL, KlK is a choice, the animation is identical not smooth and beautiful but memorable.
They have different themes one about gears and spiral, and the other about close and the power of cloth, ORIGINAL is the best word to describe, so if you have seen TTGL i think KlK should also be seen.

The protagonist in both anime are young with one main goal stated at the very beginning of the show. In both they have to overcome insurmountable obstacles to achieve that goal.
the animation and over-the-top nature of the two shows is prevalent throughout each series. Kill La Kill was directed by Gurren Lagann's directors. If you like explosions, ridiculous fight scenes and a great story, these are both shows that you should try out.

It's by the same creators to start off. Kill la Kill doesn't have the mecha genre but its a great anime all the same. Both of these series are about humans fighting back for mankind. Also both of these series have a tenancy to go overboard when their main characters power up. The only real thing I would advise about Kill la Kill is that its more comedy which gives it a slower start from Gurren Lagaan which usually hooks people episode 1.
Both are super over the top not to mention that ''aniki'' looks like one of the characters in kill la kill.Ttrust me when you see him you'll get what i mean. Also in both the Mc's get super powers battle someone with almost the same powers if you consider clothing mechs Kill la Kill is even more similar to Gurren Lagann.
And if you consider the premise with the beastmen ruling the world thats pretty similar too
Aside from the obvious similarity of the creative staff, both shows have larger-than life enemies and plot, and moments of pure absurdity. The art style is similar as well, and both shows did have little moments of genius scattered within them.

While it may not be a mech-based anime, Kill La Kill is made by the same people who made TTGL. It certainly has the same over the top feeling that TTGL had, and its what makes me love both series so much.

Both are written by the same head writer - Kazuki Nakashima - so both carry the same flavor. Kill la Kill is definitely more over-the-top and comedic.
It has similar fight scenes

The characters are both extremely good
It gives off the same vibe of wanting to continue
It is very good.
If like me you loved Gurren Lagan, you will find Kill La Kill amazing! I found a lot of similarities between the two animes. Both are a subtile alliance of fights and humour with a little echi side. The two stories evolve really fast, you never get bored.I would put Kill La Kill a little bit above for the quality of the fight scenes.
Similar art, lots of actions, both have a good unique setting. Overall if you like one you would like the other one as well.
Both shows are created by Studio Trigger and have over-the-top super powers and creative, crazy, nonsensical action and comedy.

Same studios that created the legendary fighting and mecha anime Gurren Lagann won't made you disappointed because both anime guaranteed that they have many aspects that shared a lot.
1) Badass protagonists and allies.
2) Same graphic and fighting sounds that very intense and badass !!
3) Enemies of both animes are immensely powerful and very fierce to beat and eliminate.
4) Girls in both anime are very sexy yet rude and powerful about action.
5) Battle scenes and destruction elements are very badass and grandiose !!
Kill La Kill has the same director as Gurren Lagann, so one might think that's the only similarity. But the similarities number far more than just that.
-The animation style of both shows are extremely similar.
-The story is completely batshit crazy in both cases.
-Both have an unbelievable amount of awesome in them(More so Gurren Lagaan than in KLK)
-The main villains aren't what they seem.
-They both have iconic battle songs:"Libera me to Hell" and "Don't lose your way".
-The "over-the-top" action scenes are the main draw in both of them.
If you loved/liked TTGL/KLK then you will probably feel the same way for the other.

Made by the same studio. Storyline is similar due to the main character starting weak and becoming more and more powerful as the story unfolds. Also both are pretty ridiculous in nature.
Both are made by the same people (Those at Gainax who made Gurren Lagann went on to form Trigger and make Kill La Kill) and are similarly fast-paced and energetic, with simple but interesting storylines and lovable characters. I will follow everything Trigger makes because of these two wonderful anime!
Both have over-the-top and unique art styles. They are extremely similar in the way characters are portrayed and the story is told. Battle scenes are far from the ordinary and are backed up by a great soundtrack. Logic isn't big in both and shouldn't be taken too seriously.

These two have very similar atmosphere and feeling which makes them perfect match to each other. And the story, conceptually, is almost the same.
Basically TTGL's spiritual successor, made by mostly the same team. The same infectious energy, the same will, the same epic fights, make for a must see if you loved TTGL.
Both from the mind of Hiroyuki Imaishi, these stories follow a protagonist who learns what it means to believe in themselves and fight for what means the most to them. Over the top, nonstop, NO FILLER insanity ensues- a wild ride you'll never forget.
Gurren Lagann is like zero to infinity. It starts in a cave, but ending concerned the whole universe. Kill la Kill is also similar but on a smaller scale than Gurren Lagann. Both the protagonist initially had a little amount of power. But later they rise to the top of their worlds. And the tragedy of losing friends at the end matches too.
Both are directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi and have the same kinda of unique animation and artstyle that the show offers. Both are well directed, have great production values, and a memorable soundtrack you will not forget about. Both shows offer crazy actions scenes full of thrills, intense moments, and strong characters that help keep the show going.

over the top action show, has fun with itself but can get serious when needed
Kill la Kill was made by the same staff, but with a different studio, but you can clearly see a lot of common point, mostly on the art/animation, and rythm (in both series you always think that it's going to end at the end of the episode). Both are original series and are the result of a passionate staff.
Kill la kill and Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann are like cousins, they have determined protagonists and exaggerated styles with colorful art and fluid animation, also both pass a look of awesomeness. (besides the fact that they have the same director)
If you liked KlK you will probably like TTGL because of similar art-style and some inner tropes: its another full of action anime than doesnt take itself too seriously and yet is able to deliver on interesting and catching storyline with original and rarely seen visual designs and also timeskip motive. However, if you are a hardcore mecha fan, you can get dissapointed with 'weird' mecha designs.

The first thing that struck me when watching KLK was the similar artwork to TTGL, a bit rough but still lovely, also the explosiveness of the fighting scenes are great in both shows last but not least it's the cockiness of KLKs Matoi and TTGLs Kamina! Their attitudes are a lot alike and brought a smile to my face many times.

Both have simple cartoonish art-style but with awesome animation. They both also have crazy, random, and slightly sexual humor, while also keeping solid plot and characters, both also symbolize characters interactions through action fights in an awesome way.
The watcher gets a similar vibe while watching both these shows.
They both have what one would call 'boss battles' where the main character faces a overpowered fighters. Kill la kill and Gurren Lagann both set in a place where there is a lord or a person overlooking the place.
One could also relate to the ludicrousness as the power given the main character keeps upgrading and increases to maximum over time.
Gurren Lagann and Kill la Kill are similar because they both feature an outrageous story, similar animation styles, and lovable characters. Both shows are also very upbeat, action-packed, and feature a great soundtrack to accompany each moment.

Two of the best anime in the coming of age genre.
The cool character who helps the protagonist grow up (TTGG: Kamina, FLCL: Haruko) have the same down sloped style eyes. My favourite character trademark btw.
Both are excellent and compelling stories. They both have plenty of plot twists to sweeten the deal.
The action in both of these anime is absolutely amazing.
Both rely on some fort of ever-developing transformation.
Both revolve around an idea or entity that is the main point of the story.
Both heavily follow the cliche of "motivation == power" where just at the last moment they will always come though.
Both have specific fanservice from the main characters in them, however the shows do not emphasis it as the main selling point.

Did you like Gurren Lagann because the whole anime is absolutely epic from all point of view ? So go watch the last Hiroyuki Imaishi's anime . Humour and animation are really similar, only the story and the universe are different .
First thing I instantly notice is how similar it is with Kill la Kill. Animation is EXACTLY same characteristic. Same character illustrations, environment illustrations, and how lively it is altho Kill la Kill have more close ups and oddly distinct style of arts in some parts.
The character also filled with the same energetic and vigorous attitude. Have the same genre of action altho Gurenn Lagann tend to be a mecha type of action while Kill la Kill is a close combat ken-jutsu (sword art) but in that respect..since Kill la Kill focused around a Battle Suit, I found it quite identical with Lagan in a

Same artstyle, same style of insanity, with many of the production working on Gurren Lagann also worked on Kill la Kill! In fact, they formed their very own studio for it.
The surreal style of animation, eccentric and accelerated narrative, humor style, surreal battle scenes and plot twist is very similar in both series.
At the same time that kLk seems generic and compiled of everything from mainstream that you see around there is also unique.
A clear satire to the genre MahouShoujo. or is it just a completely different way? I do not know, I'm not an expert to say but it's what I think.
Charismatic and striking characters, though all or almost all of them are generic stereotypes, are all worked out in such a way that they stand out among many characters in this vast world of animes.
Dynamic, fun and comic, I think you can summarize Kill la Kill as well.
rule of 3 episodes. neither more nor less.
