There is a similarity in the type of comedy as well as the type of lead character. Both leads are powerful characters who desires a simple life.

-Both main characters, Gintoki and Saiki, love eating sweets and reading Shounen manga. They're also strong (though Saiki's power is incomparable).
-Both shows have great comedy.
-Both referenced each other at some point.
Both very funny comedy shows that break the 4th wall occasionally. Similar style protagonist and jokes.
both have the same Scriptwriter and they both have pretty much the same kind of humor ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Besides total differents background histories, both has the same kind of non-sense humor
Both are really funny, if you liked Gintama you will for sure like Saiki Kusuo
Both shows have similar fast-paced comedy combined with exaggerated facial expressions and loud atmosphere's. Both shows also break the fourth wall from time to time, as well as having pieces of more serious moments in between

Very powerful and cool protagonists with a knack for sweets that just try to live their everyday lives. Many stupid jokes that are funny because they're repetitive. Single and multi-episode arcs.
They both have similar comedy. If you're interested in a long show that's similar to Saiki then Gintama is for you. It also can get dark and serious with some of my favourite arcs in anime coming out of those dark arcs. Also it has a less simplistic art-style then Saiki.

The protagonists have a lot in common: both are lazy but powerful, compelling, have a sweet tooth, and are absolute sadists (who doesn't love sadists :D). The characters are all unique and lovable and their traits are what make the silly gags/jokes so great and hilarious. The humor is pretty alike (though Gintama has more, well, "unsuitable for children" jokes) and will for sure make you cry with laughter at times :) If you liked the humor in Gintama, you'll most probably like Saiki Kusuo.
Both are much funny, and Gintama can make you cry too. (and Gintama makes crossover with Saiki Kusuo)

The two of them make really good comedies and are really good parodies of the genre.
Both anime are hilarious with vibrant characters and chaotic everyday life.
It has the same type of stupid humor. Both have nice feels, but I definitely feel Gintama was way better than Saiki though.
Essentially, Saiki K's comedy is executed almost exactly like Gintama. Both series break the 4th wall and make funny references based off of Japanese pop culture. This series also draws a unique cast of characters which make them really enjoyable to watch.

They're both gag anime with a similar style of humor and have a large cast of characters that are all unique and amusing in their own way. Both also contain parodies of certain tropes and reference other anime

Doesn't have a serious plot but has a really good comedy stuff, I think they're similar but Gintama just has a bit if seriousness into it but I think you will enjoy this show even tho they don't have a good storyline.
Both are completely self-aware and 4th wall break pretty often and both of them are just really funny and hilarious anime in general.

It pretty much has the same type of humor as Gintama. I mean like, they literally made a Gintama parody episode.

Both have self-aware moments and one acknowledges the other. Both seem to be comedy but have their wholesome and heartfelt moments. Both have a character that seems to attract many different people around him, but have their own small group of close friends.

- Great comedy that is for sure to make you laugh
- Overpowered main characters.
- Dont go around showing off their powers
- Anime references!
- Gintama has a plot whereas Saiki K does not
If you like your absurd comedy shounen jump anime like Gintama, Saiki Kusuo definitely hits that same exact spot. What can I say they are just really damn fun to watch. Also while you are at it (and haven´t read /or seen it yet) Sket Dance is another great recommendation!

I mean the comedy is nearly identical, although Gintama also spends much more of it's time on dirty jokes. If you love witty dialogue and dry humor, this is for you.
