Key the Metal Idol

I agree with the other rec. -- similar '90s anime art style, Psychological themes, early lightheartedness followed by tragedy, action, MC having to learn about what it means to be alive Key has female MC Neon Genesis has male MC

GIRL

Similar art same premise of girl crossdresses and guys still fall in love with her GIRL is incomplete and He's Dedicated to Roses is complete, so you get a slightly more developed story, though still not great (Love in the Mask is probably the best one in the trope)

Sabaku no Harem

both involve strategic/militaristic love triangles, strong-willed female leads, and pushy yet caring male leads, also historical settings/time periods. Sora wo Akai... is more dramatic and serious while Sabaku is lighter with less complex character dynamics

Kuragehime
|
Similar 'trap' idea with cross-dressing male leads who have accentric/loud personalities. Female leads differ in Kuragahime features an otaku, unstylish female lead as opposed to a opinionated studious schoolgirl. Kuragahime focuses more on the fashion industry as opposed to school-life in Shouri no Akuma. The endings of both are rushed.
