If you liked Boku no Chikyuu wo Mamotte add

...then you might like Terra e... add

Another science fiction drama featuring a highly romanticized view of planet earth, love and emotions that transcend time and space, and an overwhelming, driving desire to return "home"

If you liked Top wo Nerae! Gunbuster add

...then you might like Macross add

Another 1980s series which has a similar romanticized, upbeat, and theatrical feel to this space military drama about young adults trying to make sense of the situation (and themselves) as they face an overwhelmingly unknown enemy.

If you liked Tetsuwan Birdy Decode add

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

Corpse Princess is basically the horror version of Birdy. You've got a butt-kicking, scantily clad headstrong female lead who works with a powerful but mysterious group who are working against malicious forces, who gets involved a somewhat boring normal teenage male protagonist with annoying friends. But hey, the action scenes are awesome.

If you liked Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann add

...then you might like Star Driver: Kagayaki no Takuto add

Star Driver has a very enthusiastic tone similar to Gurren Lagann, along with colorful mecha battles and fun characters. Star Diver, however, has a splash of fabulous like Gurren Lagann has a splash of badass. Would most definitely recommend to anyone who enjoyed Gurren Lagann, and vice versa.

If you liked Shoujo Kakumei Utena: Adolescence Mokushiroku add

...then you might like Paprika add

Heavy on the symbolism and insane visuals, both are aesthetically pleasing and create a dreamlike world, with fresh character and background designs.

If you liked Dogs: Bullets & Carnage add

...then you might like Black Lagoon add

Both Black Lagoon and Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (and it's prequel, Dogs) have great action sequences, cutting edge art, and a cast of interesting and colorful characters. Both have characters that make a living out of shady, if not illegal work, and awesome gunslingin' action. In between all this gritty fighting, both series have time for refreshing humor. Although Dogs: Bullets & Carnage has more of a serious, gloomy overtone, I highly recommend it for anyone who likes Black Lagoon, and visa versa. Plus, both series have creepy, eerily cute, homicidal twins. Now who can resist that?

If you liked Mimi wo Sumaseba add

...then you might like Byousoku 5 Centimeter add

Both films revolve around tentative teenage love, and both are very sweet, perfect for the hopeless romantic. However, Whisper of the Heart has a more upbeat and somewhat comedic, lighthearted approach, while 5 Centimeters per Second explores the other side of young love; loneliness, separation, rejection, and growing apart.
