Bounty hunters everywhere are on the lookout for this legendary gunman, not to mention insurance agents Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, who are tasked with preventing any potential damage that this Vash can cause.

vash is similar to cpt taylor... they both act like idiots, but are they really?
TheBurningCrow
Another series with an immense underlying plot and a comical main character. The attitudes of both Vash and Tylor are similar and they seem to be incapable of anything really, but it so turns out they are very good at what they do.
Sphinx

Both of these have a lot of action and adventure--and quirky main characters that you frequently think are insane or hiding something but like anyway.

They also occasionally make you think. But not too much.

Mirvra

Both of these Series focuses on two very diffrent but just as irresponsible lead characters both are quite amusing to watch and you'll find yourself laughin out loud at a few times while watching Irresponsible Captain Tylor accidentaly giving a bomb to an enemy captain and also Smile when Vash the Stampede proves that he's fast enough to beat his enemy by loosing the bouttoms on her clothes, Both anime's are Diffrent though in the way they get serious making them not a guarantead enjoyment if you enjoyed the other anime's however their humor runs just as deep making them both worth a watch too try your taste

Nevo

If you enjoyed captain tylor, you would enjoy trigun, both main characters share the same personality, they are irresponsbile, but at the same time, its funny to go along their adventures, i highly reccomend trigun to you if you loved Tylors personality. :)

seraphim2000

These two series have idiots against the universe, but are they really as dumb as they let on? What seems like pure luck or just unnoticeable skill keeps them alive and kicking till the very end!

Vandread is just another great space comedy with an interesting underlying story. The humor is very similar to that of Tylor.
Vilho

Space adventures, Girls, Boys, Lots of laughs... And whit these series things never get too serious.

Vandread is about Girls and boys why do silly things in space.

And Tylor is about silly captain who does stubid stuff in space.

sloggerK

Like ridiculously fun and silly shows set in outer space? Both Vandread and Irresponsible Captain Tylor are good bets.

Great Teacher Onizuka

Great Teacher Onizuka main image

With a history of leading a motorcycle gang and getting bad grades in school, why would 22 year old Onizuka ever want to become a teacher? Is it to educate young minds or spread the joy of education? Sure, if it involves being able to look up high school girls' skirts! Watch as this would-be educator uses his own life lessons and unconstituted methods as a means to control a delinquent class of students -- students who certainly aren't as happy to have him as a teacher as he is happy to be teaching...

Golden Boy and GTO share a common bond in their two protagonists. Both exist outside of society's norms, and deviate significantly from what is considered "acceptable" behavior. However, because of this rejection of common societal values, both become unmistakeably genuine and loveable anti-heroes that emphasize the importance of living life on your own terms - not on someone else's.

Zadillo
You should definitely enjoy the character of Tylor, who seems to have a similar attitude and view of life, and also seems to slowly win the confidence and trust of those around him, while also spreading his viewpoints and way of life. Highly recommended.
baley7

Both anime feature an exteriorly silly protagonists that do not behave as society would expect of them and completely out of tune with the ambient they work in. Both of them are funny, genius (not always though) in their behaviour and original.

Martian Successor Nadesico

Alt titles: Nadesico

Martian Successor Nadesico main image

Meet Akito, a mecha pilot with all the training... of a cook?! Along with airhead Yurika, mecha otaku Hikaru, child genius Ruri, sultry Megumi and more of their cast of misfits, they crew mankind's last hope against the dreaded Jovian Lizards -- the Mobile Battleship Nadesico! Financed by a private company, they not only have to deal with the threatening alien menace, but also Earth’s own military (in which Yurika’s father happens to be an admiral!), who are not pleased to see such a formidable warship outside of their authority...

Both share sort of a similar goal of poking a bit of fun at the space epic genre, with a likable cast and a nice mix of humor and seriousness.
azerok2b
Irresponsible Captain Tyler pretty much IS Nadesico, with the slight exception of having been conceived and aired a few years earlier
himurakenshin

Quite similar shows. Daily life on spaceships, primarily comedy, but enough seriousness to keep you caring about what directions the plot and politics take during the more consequential episodes. Plenty of lovable characters Similar animation style as well. Both solid shows, especially for those looking for a light hearted but semi-serious space series.

Infinite Ryvius

Alt titles: Mugen no Ryvius

Infinite Ryvius main image

What happens when authority and consequence are removed? When the inmates truly run the asylum. On the spaceship Ryvius there are those who would fight for order, and many more who would fight to destroy it. Love, hate, anger, greed, avarice, and perhaps hope are the fuel for the Ryvius, and only one can save those who call it home...

While the tone of IR and ICT are definitely different (IR being very depressing, and ICT being a light hearted comedy), both definitely seem to have the same kind of a feeling to them. Character development is a big part of both of these, and conveniently, both happen to also have a somewhat similar plot: a crew of misfits aboard a ship where they really don't belong. I definitely prefer IR over ICT because I prefer depressing type dramas, whereas others might enjoy ICT more because of the comedy aspect. Regardless, I think both of these are a good recommendation for the other.
Shadizzy
These two animes share a common bond, both have a crew made up of many different people taking over a new ship, what goes on is a series of confrontations between new enemies from both outside and inside. Both animes show the relationships that grow in outspace, and how life long friendships can turn into bitter rivalries. (side note) Ryvius takes a more depressing turn, while Tylor goes through a more comical route with serious uptones.
