Random comedy in a school setting anything can happen in both these funny anime. They both consist of random gags and jokes with some funny recurring characters to provide laughs in short bursts.

Prison School

Prison School

Hachimitsu Private Academy is anything but typical. With a female to male ratio of 200 to 1, the academy's five male students think they're in heaven – when really, they're about to enter hell! For after peeping on some of the busty, nubile ladies in the locker room, the gang is apprehended by the sadistic members of the Underground Student Council – a group determined to punish those who take part in illicit relationships on campus. Their punishment? To spend a month in prison on the school grounds, subject to the cruel whims of the club members! Now, the boys must pass the days performing mundane tasks and getting beaten by the dominatrix Meiko, all the while trying to view as many breasts and panties as possible!

The hijinks of high school delinquents have never been funnier than in Cromartie High School and Prison School. Both these titles are high school comedies focused on the midadventures of a group of teenage boys. Both shows derive a lot of their humor from the over the top expressions the characters make in response to the absurd situations they find themselves in. 

Prison School's comedy is more perverted and focused on the gross out humor and Cromartie's humor is more varried getting surreal at some points. However, if you enjoy comedies about lovable losers then don't miss out on these titles.

Kusuo Saiki is a typical 16-year-old high school student… except he has psychic powers. He can use them to get whatever he wants, but he also knows everything that people are thinking. Everything. No surprises, no secrets, no normal human experiences. He's kept his powers in check since childhood, but with the temptations of high school now on his mind, he's bending the rules—and spoons.

Aachi wa Ssipak

Aachi wa Ssipak

In the future, all energy sources are depleted, except human excrements. To reward production, people receive addictive, Popsicle-like Juicybars. Aachi and Ssipak are street hoodlums who struggle to survive by trading black market Juicybars. Through a chain of events involving their porn-director acquaintance Jimmy the Freak, they meet wannabe-actress Beautiful, whose defecations are rewarded by exceptional quantities of Juicybars. For that reason, Beautiful is also wanted by the violent blue mutants known as the Diaper Gang (led by the Diaper King), the police (most notably the cyborg police officer Geko), and others.

like FLCL & dead leaves, this series, also made into a medicre live action film, features a lot of random surrealism that's sometimes funny, oftentimes head scratching, but rarely boring.

Onara Gorou

Onara Gorou

The best way to learn about life is taking advice from a gigantic, personified fart. Onara Gorou's sage wisdom is helpful in any situation, whether he's teaching students about irritable bowel syndrome, recommending gassy warfare as an anti-bullying strategy, or using the power of breathing - and explosive flatulence - to literally knock down barriers. Open your nose, and your heart, to Gorou the fart!

Cromartie is a lot better and smarter, but both have fairly similar animation, tons of delinquents, deadpan comedy, etc. Just Onara also has a lot of farts :p

Pop Team Epic

Pipimi and Popuko are two typical 14-year-old girls with endless energy. Together, the two become the stuff of memes by having shootouts in space, traversing video game worlds, stealing an umbrella from [redacted], or other spastic misadventures.

Both are comprised of surreal gag shorts. I'm not sure why these shows were made, but I am glad they were.

Both saiki k and cromartie highschool have far fetched, funny and random scenarios (they are both gag shows) they have a similar type of humor and both play with cliches.

Under Ninja

Under Ninja

After World War II, Allied Command in Japan developed a new agency to help manage terrorism and violence within the Pacific region. The agency was staffed with ninja and they were initially tasked to handle domestic affairs. Eventually that program grew to its current form, managing 20,000 ninja across a range of domestic and international affairs. One of those ninja happens to be Kudo. The seventeen-year-old high school loser is now poised to be the next line of defense against a potential surge in foreign assassins invading Tokyo.

Both feature similar oddball/absurdist humor revolving around a group of HS delinquents/ninjas. Both are equally random, though Under Ninja is more action oriented and considerably more violent.

While Bucchigiri has action and isn't as random as Cromartie, they are both about high school delinquents and are heavy on silly comedy. I think fans of one would enjoy the other.
