...then you might like Shirobako add

Yes, this one is a bit farfetched. But there's similar vibe in portraying something as dull as everyday work and turning it into piece of entertainment.

If you liked Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt add

...then you might like Space☆Dandy add

Shocked ?! Well, maybe because both seems to show a middle finger to whole recent anime industry trends ,and instead they carve their own unspecified niche where total lack of sense is your everyday plot device. Nevertheless, somehow both make you crave for more.

If you liked Mawaru Penguindrum add

...then you might like Kyousou Giga (TV) add

Similar director approach in terms of animation, backgrounds, and puzzling but solid story with characters bearing the fate their parents chose for them. Quirky but at the same time cheerful and creepy, it's a rare mix ,well shaken.

Journey of two strangers that grows closer and devolope famillial affection. Cast of great characters and bittersweet conclusion

If you liked Cowboy Bebop add

...then you might like Michiko to Hatchin add

Soundtrack with an abundance of actual songs that aren't your average anime stuff. Huge mix of nicely shaken popculture tropes and brilliantly directed episodic structure with satisfying conclusion. Rare thing among modern anime.

If you liked Noein: Mou Hitori no Kimi e add

...then you might like Dennou Coil add

What at first glance seems to be a children story turns out to be involving well written story with a twist. Writing is convoluted and infodumbing. Characters are developing throughout the series. Great production quality especially motion animation. Finally there's imaginative and original setting

If you liked Kimi to Boku. add

...then you might like Tsuritama add

Coming of age stories about overcoming social aloofness and awkwardness with a little help from friends and in this case, boys in high school. KtB has a charming romantic subplot while Tsuritama shows how hobbies can be encouraging and shared passions. There are also cheerful characters who push the story forward.

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

...then you might like Mawaru Penguindrum add

Dark setting and surreal ambiance wrapped in a cute , colourful package. It's not what it seems to be at first sight. Both pictures a struggle with destiny. There are also important plot developmnets based on characters ambiguity. Both shares vague endings that won't satisfy everyone, especially those who like things to be clear.

If you liked Suzumiya Haruhi Series add

...then you might like "Bungaku Shoujo" Series add

A girl is inspired to follow her dreams by a mysterious boy ,whose identity she does not know. While in the high school she meets the same boy who changed her life and forcefully make him joining her club. These stories are two sides of the same coin, one with paranormal and comedy, the other with slice of life.

If you liked Taishou Yakyuu Musume. add

...then you might like Sora no Manimani add

Simple stories that take place on the schoolground. No supernatural, no dramas, no ecchi. Plain as it seems to be but enjoyable indeed.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like K-On! add

K-on is simply LS ripped off. Devoid of all its simple charm and pros. If you have to eat sweets at least choose these that won't make your stomach ache.

If you liked Aa! Megami-sama! (TV) add

...then you might like Kimi ni Todoke add

One is shojo romance other is shonen but I felt the same watching both. I mean the sensation of platonic love with both sides being afraid of confessions and making first move. These are not dynamic love stories with sudden changes of heart and quarrels but slowpaced natural development of close relationship.

If you liked Ouran Koukou Host Club add

...then you might like Kaichou wa Maid-sama! add

Poor heroines , strong both in character and will, with some goal. The last thing they're looking for is love, even when they're surrounded by males attracted to them. A lot of supporting characters with their own time in story.

If you liked Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou add

...then you might like Aria add

Honestly there is no plot, you could say they're about nothing and turn away from them. That would be a mistake. These titles are relaxing and soothing reading matter that gives you sensesation that life isn't all about money, work even education. In both landscapes are feast for eyes. Main difference is in pace , both slow but YKK is more adult and based on inner thoughts of heroes while Aria is shonen slice of life with lot of moe. Same charm , different ways of achieving it.

If you liked Katanagatari add

...then you might like B-gata H-kei add

Same voice acting of Yukari Tamura.In both heroine is hyper genki klutz full of herself and with odd ambitions.In both shows they get partner fitting to their characters, I mean another klutz.

If you liked Shinseiki Evangelion add

...then you might like Ergo Proxy add

Closer to ending, more similarities. Existential and psychologic background , nonoptimistic vision of future and a whole mass of symbols and refferences that gives spectator many ways of interpetation.

If you liked Wolf's Rain add

...then you might like Ergo Proxy add

The world is ending , it's granted. In both shows we can see struggle and surrender. Different attitudes in face of extinction. There is also a pressure on philiosphical aspects such as "Who am I" , "Where is my place on Earth" , "Where do I go" which are important part of plot.

If you liked Seirei no Moribito add

...then you might like Stranger: Mukou Hadan add

Titanic effort of animators that brought hightdetailed backgrounds close to real paintings among with great dynamic fight scenes that surpass your typical shounen battle with more blabbering about being mighty than actually kickass action.Also starting point for theplot is nearly the same.

If you liked Death Note add

...then you might like Mirai Nikki add

Both shares supernatural kind of note/diary giving its owner great possibilities.There is also similar way of creating story that is based on scheming and sudden plot twists.DN is more about inner dialogues while MN is pure action with lot of rolling heads and explosions

More obvious reasons would be same director, dynamic pace and art while less obvious both mix typical scfi elements with adolescent slice of life.

If you liked Elfen Lied add

...then you might like Deadman Wonderland add

Gore, yandere , abusive parents , mysterious girls knowing no sense of shame. Deadman is piece of art comparing the drawings in Elfen Lied

If you liked Saiyuuki add

...then you might like Black Lagoon add

Bullets and fists as the only way of negotiations. Main characters with shady past, far from being innocent , twisted by life so sometimes you'll think that in "villians" they deal with is more common sense and composure
