If you liked Slayers Next add

...then you might like Mahoutsukai Tai! (TV) add

If you like anime about magic that doesn't take the whole thing all too seriously, then Mahou Tsukai Tai and Slayers NEXT are both good places to start. They are both comedy-based anime with the same sort of childish, amusing humour. Both are about magic too! The character types in the two series are definitely very different, but have the same sort of lovable character traits that will inevitably make for good comic material. I found the art style to be pretty similar as well.

If you liked Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann add

...then you might like Sengoku Basara add

Bright costumes, crazy animation, and more epic-manly-over-the-top-dramatic-fight-scenes than you could ever think possible. These are the tarits that mark Gurren Lagann and Sengoku Basara. The plots are nowhere near each other in semblance, but both series certainly evoke the same feelings. Oh, those manly, manly feelings.

If you liked Noir add

...then you might like Canaan add

Start off with girls who are prodigious at killing (especially with guns). Add some mystery that a main female duo is trying to unveil. Don't forget some form of symbolism to unite the female duo, such as cat's cradle or a music box. Throw in some mysterious pasts and strong yuri undertones, and you're either talking about Noir or Canaan. It could be either.

If you liked Naruto add

...then you might like Soul Eater add

The art style for Soul Eater actually is rather similar to Naruto's in the fact that it uses rather thick lines and bright, solid colours. Even the tone of the anime is similar, adding light-hearted and funny moments in-between epic action. Soul Eater injects a bit more humour than Naruto, but they both do a good job of relieving tension with humour at the right moments. Both anime focus on building up the quirky characters (which are very lovable and memorable) as they progress further into their world and as they get into more fights. Both stories are essentially following the main characters getting stronger and maturing as they strive towards their ultimate goal.
