If you liked D.Gray-man add

...then you might like Tokyo Ghoul add

If we look at a glance, D.Gray-Man and Tokyo Ghoul are miles different, but when we look at how the danger lurking in between human society, Tokyo Ghoul and D.Gray-Man is very simillar. In both of the animes, Ghouls and Akumas has the ability to disguise themselves in a human form and when the time is right, they will strike humans which ends up either a human is become an Akuma or a human ends uo being a food for a ghoul. Not to mention, both of the protagonist has to undergo extreme torture in their life which results they get the power that people don't want to have (Ghoul powers for Kaneki and Pentacle Eye for Allen Walker). Heck even these CCG and Black Order has the same purpose which is to exterminate Ghouls (for the CCG) and to exterminate Akumas (for the Black Order). The only difference between them is not all those CCG's are a good people, and not all ghouls are bad people while at D.Gray-Man all exorcist from Black Order are definitely good guys and all of Noah members are bad guys. To put it simple Tokyo Ghoul IS D.Gray-Man but with even more moral gray and with even more gore and tragedy.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru add

Why Evangelion is simillar to Yuusha de aru you guess? Their simillarities is that there are some group of people who try to fight the things that at the beginning they don't understand at all. Yuuna is more like what if Shinji Ikari gets in the stock shonen hero trope and genderbent into a plucky girl. Karin at the other hand is like Asuka Langley who has a superiority inferiority complex that resides between her souls. Move to the organization and enemies, Taisha and NERV has a bit simillarities when it comes to how they handle their problems and who are the people they choose. Not to mention those vertexes and the angels has pretty much simillar way to approach and destroy humanity (they also has a weird looking design) with the only difference is in Eva verse, Eva Pilots does not have Jukai to fight those angels, heck even both Eva Pilots AND the Heroes are gaven something to fight those monsters which is Eva robot for Eva Pilots and a Smartphone for the heroes. To put it simple, YuYuYu is Evangelion, but with heart-warming slice of life moments, more optimistic tone, colorful character interactions, main characters that genuinely loves each other, more teamworks and friendship, and less mindfuckery.

If you liked Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun add

...then you might like Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen add

If you want to seek a simillar rom-com troll after you watch Nozaki-kun, then Kaguya-sama is the right anime for you. Both of these shows revolves around romantic comedy moments that oftenly get trolled for some weird reasons. While Nozaki is more like a rom-com mockery (so that's why i called Nozaki-kun a rom-com troll), Kaguya-sama is more like rom-com troll because there are a lot of mind games to spice uo it's rom-com nuance. To make it simple, Nozaki-kun is a rom-com troll because of parody, meanwhile Kaguya-sama is a rom-com troll because of it's mind games.

If you liked Monster add

...then you might like Kenpuu Denki Berserk add

Although Berserk and Monster are totally different when it comes to world setting, but when we look deeper through the anime, Berserk and Monster HAS some simillarities, which is they're both capable to represent the darkest fantasy and reality possible to happen. Maybe Guts and Dr Tenma are quite diffrent personality wise, but when we look at the antagonist on each animes, Johan and Griffith are strikingly simillar. They have a pleasant face for such a evil guy. They also have extreme charisma and extremely manipulative towards any people that they met. Not to mention, Berserk and Monster are heavily talks about moral gray and wickedness of society and government as well. To put it simple, if we kept what makes Berserk is awesome (moral gray, character development, etc) and then we remove all of the dark fantasy and supernatural horror elements in Berserk, we can get Monster.

If you liked NHK ni Youkoso! add

...then you might like Outbreak Company add

Why i think that NHK ni Youkoso and Outbreak Company are simillar? The answer is because both of these two anime's topic is talking about problems for being an otaku, and they also criticize our otaku community with pretty hard. While NHK totally criticizing our anime community and only talks about problems for being an otaku, Outbreak Company talks about our anime community with more balance, in other words, Outbreak Company talks about ups and downs for being an otaku.
