If you liked Samurai Champloo add

...then you might like Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis add

Also similar in some ways to Cowboy Bebop & Space Dandy, the group dynamic and the inclusion of an unusual musical/aesthetic theme make it hard to believe that Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis isn't directed by Shinichiro Watanabe. In Samurai Champloo, two male samurai who are constantly at each others' throats work together to escort a female. In Bahamut, it seems as though a similar formula of two rival males escorting a female will be used. It's early, but the use of Old West-style music and visuals in a fantasy anime reminded me immediately of Watanabe's similar hip-hop & samurai love-child. Also, bounty hunters. INCREDIBLE!

...then you might like Binbougami ga! add

Both high-energy, fast-paced parodies/comedies. Excel Saga focuses much more heavily on parody than Binbougami-ga!, but the over the top style in both is very similar.

If you liked Ben-To add

...then you might like Hataraku Maou-sama! add

Both comedies with some action on the side, the two focus almost more on entertaining you than telling a story (which isn't a bad thing as they are both VERY entertaining), and both see the main thrown into a world they do not understand (much more so in Maou-sama). One major difference is Ben-To has much more ecchi.

Both are directed by Shinichiro Watanabe, follow the misadventures of a small group in an episodic format, have superb music which creates a unique style, and often deal with philosophical issues in their conflicts. Both brilliant!
