The main role is Sho Sakurai he acts like a psycho in both dramas, except that in Kazoku Game he wants things to get better using his crazy somewhat violent ways, but in The Quiz Show 2 He is a host in a LIVE TV Quiz program, that asks the contestants questions of truth not knowledge and due to an accident he has lost his memories.

While the plots are different, Sakurai Sho plays in both of these dramas as very similar characters. Both characters are eccentric and have very similar mannerisms and catchphrases (Iiii neeee~ vs Nantsutte~) and both have dark secrets they are hiding. If you liked Sho's character and acting in one, you will enjoy him in the other.

Sho Sakurai awesomely acts as psychotic on both series. Both really interesting.

Both psychological dramas, both deal with manipulating other people into looking into themselves and may be changing for the better. Both have a cute and crazy lead character with a past. :)

Both include a broken slightly messed up family.

Both have slightly pathetic adults.

Both include an unconventional outsider. A tutor in Kazoku Game and a Housekeeper in The Suspicious Housekeeper.

Both have very good character developement.

(Please note that the suspicious housekeeper is a korean drama)

Both of these dramas involve a home tutor with unusual and controversial teaching methods. Moreover, both have other members of the family changing because of the tutor.

15 sai no blues is a lot shorter. The kazoku game is somewhat darker with more depth to all of the characters.

Both about families with serious problems and broken bonds that someone comes to help them reconstruct their relationships and become a real family again.

Both of these Japanese dramas had elements of:
-Necessary "evil"
-Academic/school setting
-The MC has many secrets
-MC is trying to change the people around him
-They will both keep you guessing until the end
I felt the same vibe from both of these dramas, however, Mr.Hiirajis Classroom has a darker tone than Kazoku Game.

Hmmm..... we're should I start (?) this is my first time doing this because I can't believe no one felt the same yet ...the drama genres are different, in kg.. the family is getting together and bonding due to some unfortunate events... and in memory, the mc got diagnosed with Alzheimer's... so he is trying to complete his unfinished jobs .. and getting closer to his family after concentrating on his job as a successful attorney... both are heartwarming, full of feels , and sad .... it is also bittersweet in a way ... I am certain that if you like one of those two titles and especially the family part , you'd love the other one !!
( please not memory is a k drama)

Both are psychological dramas were there is a family involved. Both have also some mystery involved. Both have a cliffhanger at the end of the drama.
Recommended by fanitha
Both are about a families who seem to be normal from the outside, but in fact they have dark secret.
Recommended by Gummy
Same vibe. In Kazoku Game a home tutor join a seemingly perfect family and destroy it from the inside. Both are dark comedies dealing with serious themes (... but with hilarious moments).
