Both of these early animations depict men battling with Japanese demons, so if you liked that in once, you may want to try the other.

Looking for an overpowered main character who finishes all and any of his problems with punching bad guys in the face? Look no further! Both these shows feature a somewhat similar narrative even if One-Punch Man is set in a somewhat more contemporary setting, whereas Tairiki Taro no Mucha Shugyo has a mythical setting.
A turn-off could be the show's length (2mins compared to 12 full lengths eps) and date of publication of the shows (1928 vs 2015). If you're a sucker for the old stuff, you might not like the modern and polished look of One-Punch Man. Similarly, if you only watch the newer stuff, this older show might not appeal to you much. Production values are probably somewhat lower too.
