If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai add

...then you might like Kurozuka add

For both of these anime, time plays an important factor in developing the story, more so than we might originally think. Redundancy within the shows hints at the importance of time. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is more modern and Kurozuka is much less so. Supernatural ideologies are also important for the plots of each. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai's art style and school atmosphere make it less thought provoking and easier to relate to than Kurozuka. Kurozuka is less-straightforward, but has more action, more plot twists and more detailed art.

If you liked Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

...then you might like Psycho-Pass add

These two anime both have systems that in some way segregate two sets of people. These anime aren't about a hero bringing one of these classes to glory, rather the separate classes just create a reason for why our heroes are doing what they do as jobs. As such, you get to see a story related to our heroes that ultimately has meaning more-so to them, not their society. Darker than Black is more supernatural while Psycho-Pass is on the futuristic side so, the imagination definitely gets to play while watching either. Psycho-Pass however, has a more straight-forward plot.

If you liked Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin add

...then you might like Ao no Exorcist add

The similarities are glaring: they're both about strong-willed students pursing a goal that could save the world, while attending an occult-based school. Blue Exorcist however is a bit darker, with more graphic artwork and a bit more fluid. Both are fun, supernatural action adventures that really makes you curious as to what will befall your hero.

If you liked Ouran Koukou Host Club add

...then you might like Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu add

These two are both funny, tug-on-your-heartstrings shows with oddly intriguing main characters. Baka and Test, in my opinion, is the more funny of the two but both have mild love triangles, crazy hijinks, cute characters and a plot that just somehow fits. Ouran High School Host Club leans more of the deeper side while maintaining its lighthearted nature. One would likely assume from the name that Baka and Test would be a blatantly stupid-comedy. However you would end up pleasantly surprised with a show based more on witty comedy and overall, friendship.

If you liked Tasogare Otome x Amnesia add

...then you might like Shinsekai yori add

The art and the atmosphere are both similar, especially at the beginning of each. There's mystery and very mild horror used to create the beginning perspective. They both start slowly; increasing in action pace about halfway. There's also romance in each (though less of a plot basis for Shinsekai Yori). At the beginning of Shinsekai Yori, my mind SCREAMED Dusk Maiden of Amnesia due to the art and pace, however I truly believe Shinsekai Yori is more artful, deeper and a bit more fluid.
