If you liked Mushishi add

...then you might like Majo add

Majo may be much more grand and abstract, but they both contain the same air of mysticality. Both use elegant, "less-is-more" styles of storytelling, and the art styles are at least somewhat similar. Fans of either will most likely enjoy the other.

If you liked Miyori no Mori add

...then you might like Natsume Yuujinchou add

A human is unique in their ability to speak with spirits. Similar atmosphere and pacing. A person who enjoys one should enjoy the other.

If you liked Usagi Drop add

...then you might like Hotman add

Since no one else has bothered to mention it, I figured I might as well through this out there. Similar slice-of-life, father cares for daughter premise. Hotman has a much more extensive cast (partially due to its length), and a bit more of a serious edge, but fans of either series should enjoy the other.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Pale Cocoon add

Both Pale Cocoon and Evangelion are post-apocalyptic sci-fi anime. Throughout both (although Pale Cocoon is a mere one episode in comparison) the lead struggles with identity and purpose while becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the world around him. Both have unique endings as well that shed a somewhat positive light on what would otherwise be very negative.

If you liked Ghost Hunt add

...then you might like Rental Magica add

Both series are about various stand-alone incidents related to supernatural events, and an organization composed of people from various religious/occult affiliations that work together. Though the views on how magic works and personalities of the character varies greatly, both shows have a lot a similarities.

If you liked Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora add

...then you might like True Tears add

Both series are romance-drama hybrids that contain very defined, realistic characters. The male leads go through a vaguely similar struggle that deals more with themselves than with others, and both use stories as symbolism (although Hanbun uses a real book instead of a fictional story written by the lead).

If you liked Monster add

...then you might like 20th Century Boys add

Monster and 20th Century Boys are both written by the same author (Urasawa Naoki) and are both heavily psychological works that primarily explore the nature of evil.

If you liked Kumo no Mukou, Yakusoku no Basho add

...then you might like Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu add

Both of these deal primarily with the issues of depression and finding your place in the world. They are both heavily psychological, well-scripted, and contain only enough science fiction to add to the characters, rather than just become the premise for the show.

If you liked Fullmetal Alchemist add

...then you might like Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch add

Both series make strong statements about several issues, although the primary similarities lay in their critiques of imperialism and war.
