The core of the plot for these series involve the constant switch between "reality" and a "fantasy/video game-like" world where commentary from one side as well as the actions inside the fantasy world make the series what they are. Also Tsunderes appear....

A girl that can be mistaken as a boy joins a club of attractive boys and each character in the series is quirky and has a unique personality of their own. Similar episode style that remind you of one another

If you liked Air Movie add

...then you might like Clannad Movie add

Despite the fact that the kyoto animation counterparts may be more iconic, these movies are made by toei animation as alternatives to the series in a movie format rather than the usual TV format. The stories aren't exactly the same compared to the tv version but the characters and some key parts remain the same

If you liked Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu add

...then you might like Zoku Owarimonogatari add

Movie finales for series in which our main protagonist enters/gets put in another world which can be described as an alternate version of what they are usually familiar with in an unexpected manner.

If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Specials add

...then you might like Ao no Exorcist: Ura Ex add

Regardless of what the parent story content may be, these 1 minute sized specials both serve the same purpose as in they both rely lots on comedy and faster pased episodes and don't feel similar at all their main stories.

If you liked Shibuya Kingyo add

...then you might like Bougyaku no Kokekko add

Hiroumi aoi works which follow zombie apocalypse styled stories except instead of zombies it's just recognizable animals like fish and chickens. This can lead to some pretty memorable or creepy feelings that the series can give off

If you liked Ao no Exorcist add

...then you might like Boku no Hero Academia add

Shounen series in which heavy focus is being put in the dynamics between a power of some sort and the main male protagonist. They also feature in a school setting a lot with equally quirky classmates and abilities

If you liked Hunter x Hunter (2011) add

...then you might like Shaman King (2021) add

Reboots for classic shounens with a more "modern" artstyle as well as being a more complete adaptation rather than being left off at a weird spot. In these series, the main protagonist is a young boy with a goal and the series pretty much revolves around that fact through some memorable adventures

If you liked Inu to Neko Docchi mo Katteru to Mainichi Tanoshii add

...then you might like Ore, Tsushima add

TV-shorts in which the relationship between pet and owner is the point of the series. It usually comes in the form of comedy and are just nice and chill ways to watch lives of dogs/cats alongside the sometimes unfortunate owner.

If you liked Wonder Egg Priority add

...then you might like Sonny Boy add

We're first greeted with an unfamiliar school-like (or just school) setting with a unique twist alongside it. They start out with what can be described as "confusing" or "bizarre" and rather than you giving you the full puzzle, they give you one piece at a time and let the viewer figure things out in similar manners.

If you liked One Piece Movie 08: Episode of Alabasta - Sabaku no Oujo to Kaizoku-tachi add

...then you might like Gintama Movie 1: Shinyaku Benizakura-hen add

A lot of series have recap specials/episodes that recap a season, half of a season or maybe multiple in one? However, these decide to take that approach by not only simply remaking one arc but reanimating and pretty much just recreating everything in the process. These may not add a crazy amount more but they do a solid job retelling the story of an arc in movie format rather than episode format like how the series did them.

If you liked Ninja Collection add

...then you might like Sore dake ga Neck add

Toho Interactive Animation anime shorts which can be described using the word "bizarre" or at least a series that may or may not be unusual to an average viewer. Although ninja collection a little bit more horror driven, both use the same unique style of visuals to tell it's story within each short episode.

If you liked Death Note add

...then you might like Dr. Stone add

Although the overall tone is different for the most part, it features the lives of unbelievably intelligent high school students drastically changing after a certain event occurs. They quickly adapt to the new lifestyle shortly before encountering a "rival" type of character which sits on the opposite side of beliefs for the most part.

If you liked Sazae-san add

...then you might like Chibi Maruko-chan (1995) add

Japanese slice of life classics which mainly revolve around a family or certain family members doing average slice of life stuff which can range from going to school, school projects, trips, staying home, etc.

If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai add

...then you might like JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 4: Diamond wa Kudakenai add

The main/final focus is to defeat fate/power related to time loops but along the way, it features occasional slice of life bits alongside even comedy too

If you liked Clannad: After Story add

...then you might like Gintama° add

Sequels to fairly popular series which tend to be viewed as the "pinnacle" of the series or the season where the payoff kicks in at it's fullest. Although the prequels should be watched beforehand, they do nothing but justice for the entire series and one minute you could be laughing while the next minute you could be crying. Both also touch on themes of friendship and family through an arc based formula

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Serial Experiments Lain add

Do you enjoy series that make you think and series where one simple glance may not be enough? If your answer is yes, there's a chance you may like the other since they are usually referred to as "deep" or "thought-provoking" in similar ways with messages and themes that stand out to this day.

If you liked Kenpuu Denki Berserk add

...then you might like Vinland Saga add

Strong and likable characters paired up alongside a super badass revenge plot as well as a middle age setting world. They also excel when it comes to antagonist writing and character dynamics can be viewed as somewhat similar in both series

If you liked Highschool of the Dead add

...then you might like Tenkuu Shinpan add

Stories where the main character (s) goes from living a normal life to all of the sudden, being thrown in a bizarre situation with another enemy "race" (mask people for tenkuu and zombies for Highschool) and they have to survive. Similarly , both also happen to somehow find a way to mix ecchi elements with the horror genre in similar ways.

If you liked Arachnid add

...then you might like Himenospia add

Murata Shinya decided to write these two stories in a rather similar manner featuring the main character getting bullied, fighting and being in what you would call a "bizarre situation" just to name a few similarities. They also both feature what can be seen as "insect-humans" which are essentially humans with insect like abilities whether it's wasp abilities, spider abilities or cockroach abilities as well as some physical change which affects them too. With this wacky premise paired alongside similar and somewhat common fanservice and action scenes, it can make for a bizarre and unique experience.

If you liked Fukushuu Kyoushitsu add

...then you might like Himenospia add

These two series decide to tackle bullying in a similar style way of "fall and rise" where after the female main character is bullied one day, they either change physically or mentally which lets them change their perspective on the situation around them whether it's if it got better, if it got worse or if they wanna kill anyone. To put it shortly, after that physical or mental change on that day, relationships and the lives of the main characters change.

If you liked Boku dake ga Inai Machi add

...then you might like Tokyo Revengers add

In the massive world of time travel stories, these two series decide to take the same approach by having the male main character go back in time and save a female character from none other than fate itself.

If you liked Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! add

...then you might like Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san add

Heavy emphasis on the relationship between senpai and kouhai which almost usually, comes in the form of teasing.

If you liked Zutto Mae kara Suki deshita. Kokuhaku Jikkou Iinkai add

...then you might like Omoi, Omoware, Furi, Furare add

School, Drama and Romance movies focusing on multiple relationships instead of the standard one with relatively reminiscent character archetypes and character dynamics alongside it

If you liked Solanin add

...then you might like Oyasumi Punpun add

Can be seen as depressing coming of age -like stories with heavy focus on a male character and a female character with relationships involved. (I think solanin focuses on it more by a little bit) Whether it's music or some other reasons it's a deep story with similar meanings and as a bonus, are both by Asano.
