If you liked Night Wizard add

...then you might like Shikabane Hime: Kuro add

Both are supernatural high school shows in which a high school boy with powers, accompanied by various girls who also have powers, including one unsociable girl with a massive gun, save the world against demonic creatures, with an intricate and dark plot unfolding in the background of their episodic adventures.

If you liked Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä add

...then you might like Shangri-La add

Both are centered around a young girl who seems on a higher level than the people around her, peace-loving but an adept fighter. They also both take place in a grim future where mankind's abuse of the environment has created a toxic, jungle-infested planet that is difficult to survive in.

If you liked Night Wizard add

...then you might like Toaru Majutsu no Index add

Both have a relatively normal, academic underachiever high school boy with supernatural abilities having to protect a mysterious girl with a mysterious power who is introduced at the beginning of the show. There are plenty of other secondary characters in the show, some of whom are good and some of whom are evil, who have unique powers of their own. The two shows have an extremely similar feel to them.

If you liked Blood+ add

...then you might like Shikabane Hime: Aka add

Both are centered around an undead girl who fights other undead creatures. Both have a boy with a connection to the girl as their lead. Both have disappointing action scenes and kind of a cheesy aura of sadness hanging over the girl, with the boy sort of having this attitude of wanting to save her.

If you liked Murder Princess add

...then you might like Shikabane Hime: Aka add

Both have female characters who do a lot of fighting, although otherwise they're pretty different. In Murder Princess unlike Shikabane Hime, she's the lead. If you're a girl watching this show just because it's nice having a strong female lead, you'll like Murder Princess, where the character's also a bit more interesting and colorful.

If you liked Cowboy Bebop add

...then you might like Michiko to Hatchin add

Both are pretty funky shows that take place in a slightly askew futuristic world. Similar music and art. Similarly wild characters and improbable situations and scenes. Nice gun fights. The babe in Michiko is similar to Fay from Cowboy Bebop--gutsy, scantily clad, nonchalantly violent.

If you liked Hatenkou Yuugi add

...then you might like Hakushaku to Yousei add

A beautiful girl with magical powers accompanies a mysterious bishounen with a mysterious past and a dark agenda on a journey. Compared to the girl in Hatenkou Yuugi, Hakushaku's girl is a little more timid and her powers are more passive than active (she can communicate with fairies, but she can't cast spells--at least, not as of the first episode). Also, whereas in Hatenkou Yuugi, the girl is genuinely a companion for her two bishounen friends, in Hakushaku she is more a servant of the duke, and at his mercy.

If you liked Tactics add

...then you might like Kuroshitsuji add

Both are supernatural shows in which a demonic being which has assumed the form of a beautiful man is bound to serve a human boy. In both cases, the demon is loyal to his master to a certain extent but relatively neutral in terms of good and evil. Both shows also have a variety of silly characters in the background, including a clumsy maid.

If you liked 7-genme wa Himitsu. add

...then you might like Make Love Shiyo add

Another story involving a romance between a high school girl and her teacher, although it is much more innocent and kiddy than Make Love Shiyo.

If you liked Fushigi Yuugi add

...then you might like Neo Angelique Abyss add

Another anime with a central female character who possesses unique magical powers and is protected by a large group of bishounen.

If you liked Mushi-Uta add

...then you might like Persona: Trinity Soul add

Certain people have strange abilities that manifest as somewhat robotic-looking creatures that fight for them. In particular, both shows seem to have factions fighting against one another.

If you liked RahXephon add

...then you might like Persona: Trinity Soul add

Both are confusing and dark, involving robots that only some people have that manifest at will and fight. The two main characters are also similar--quiet, relatively normal high school boys who are pulled into the weirdness at the start of the show. There are also mysterious issues involving the cities the two boys live in.

If you liked Death Note add

...then you might like Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor add

Death note is a complicated strategy/mystery show in which people must constantly think ahead of one another to survive.

If you liked Hikaru no Go add

...then you might like Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor add

Both are anime shows with a high level intensity that involve strategy games, although Hikaru no Go is specifically about the game of Go whereas Kaiji is deeper and the gambles more varied.

If you liked Fushigi Yuugi add

...then you might like Angelique add

Reverse harem show involving one a high school girl.

If you liked Harukanaru Toki no Naka de: Hachiyou Shou add

...then you might like Angelique add

Both are reverse harem shows involving a high school girl who is surrounded by 10+ bishounen who possess magical abilities.

If you liked Suteki Tantei Labyrinth add

...then you might like Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro add

Both are mystery shows that came out in the same season, centered around an eclectic group of children and adults. Both have supernatural elements and a child-detective, although in Majin Tantei she's just a front for the mystery-solving demon whereas in Suteki, the boy is a genius.

If you liked Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

...then you might like Mushi-Uta add

Yet another show where you've got certain people suddenly developing powers, factions of them grouping together, factions of humans trying to control or eliminate them, and various protagonists on the different sides. Similar at least in terms of the super-powers and the not-quite-making-sense-ness of it.

If you liked Speed Grapher add

...then you might like Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

In both shows, certain individuals have unique super-powers thanks to a recent phenomenon. In Darker than Black, you have factions of these people up against one another. In Speed Grapher, it's one man against everyone else, a more exciting setup IMO. Also, the characters in Speed Grapher are less opaque than those in Darker than Black where the mystery usually takes precedence over the story, leaving so much unexplained that the show gets tedious.

If you liked Gilgamesh add

...then you might like Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

Both shows take place after an otherworldly phenomenon changed life as we know it. In Darker than Black, it's Hell's Gate, in Gilgamesh, it's Heaven's Gate--go figure. The associated phenomenons are directly related to certain individuals acquiring mysterious powers. Darker than Black is brighter and more entertaining than Gilgamesh and the powers are much more interesting and varied, but the setup is similar.

If you liked Night Walker: Mayonaka no Tantei add

...then you might like Kyuuketsuhime Miyu (TV) add

Both are vampire shows intended for female viewers where a "good" vampire hunts demons, although in Nightwalker the hero is more on the humans' side whereas Miyu does what she does for her own reasons, without getting too involved with humans. The Miyu art is prettier also, but Nightwalker has some eye-candy and also the high-school girls element.

If you liked Kyougoku Natsuhiko: Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari add

...then you might like Kyuuketsuhime Miyu (TV) add

They share the theme of a supernatural entity(s) being drawn to "strangeness" in the human world and eventually purging the demons responsible. Hundred Stories is MUCH more adult than Miyu, however.

If you liked Avenger add

...then you might like The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo add

In both shows, the main characters are powerful, non-busty female fighters traveling about barren landscapes. Layla from Avenger is a bit older than the girl in The Third, but there are some similarities in their quiet, intense personalities and graceful fighting styles.

If you liked The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo add

...then you might like Sumomomo Momomo: Chijou Saikyou no Yome add

The protagonist is a girl who has trained in martial arts with her father all her life. That's about it for similarities since it's also a slightly ecchi comedy with loli elements, but it's an okay pick for people who like anime with a powerful female fighter and can look past the perverted stuff.

If you liked Tales of Symphonia The Animation: Sylvarant-hen add

...then you might like Deltora Quest add

They both have that same predictable, Westernized, RPG-based feeling to them of a young boy coming into his powers.

If you liked Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl add

...then you might like Strawberry Panic add

This show is cuter and more comedic than Strawberry Panic, but it has yuri elements and is mainly about the main character's (a guy turned into a girl) relationship with the girl he had a crush on and his female childhood friend.

If you liked Strawberry Panic add

...then you might like Blue Drop: Tenshi-tachi no Gikyoku add

Another angsty anime with yuri elements that is centered around a female boarding school, with its main focus being the relationship between a feisty newcomer and her mysterious roommate who appears on the surface to be too perfect.
