Both Gundam Origin and LotGH deal with war and politics, and have a really similar vibe. Char and Reinhard are similar characters, as they are both tactical geniuses and have hidden agendas. Furthermore, the space battles in Gundam (episode 5) reminded me a lot of those in LotGH.

Both shows are political dramas set in the future and focus on different factions in outer space and their conflict. Both draw on historical events for their plot and themes. Reinhard and Char are both set on taking down a corrupt government through the inside because their own personal grudges. Later episodes of Gundam The Origin draw inspiration from LOtGH's space battles.
Both Char and Reinhard are ambitious and Machiavellian characters. Both stories follow their development from precocious children to vengeful young adults and remarkable military tacticians.
Of course, both stories take place in space, with large scale space battles.
Both anime are military space operas with a large cast spanning a long time period, in which two factions of humanity fight over political differences and domination of the known universe. Both tonally resemble a dramatized history presentation, in which the political leaders, the military strategies, and the social impact of events are important story points. There are large scale battles in space and urban warfare in both, and backstories for the main characters from childhood to young adult. Both "main main" characters, Reinhard von Lohengramm and Casval Rem Deikun, are blonde Machiavellian prodigies and military strategists. There are many more parallels within the two
