If you liked Naruto add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen add

Gojo and Kakashi might as well be the same character! Silver haired, overpowered teacher who at first Funny the students, or is at best aloof and carefree around them. The protagonists are also similar, in the sense that they have their own goals unrelated to the schools they attend, and getting stronger just happens to be the path to that goal

If you liked Naruto: Shippuuden add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen 2nd Season add

Their both really similar and I think that a lot of people would enjoy it. Like for example Naruto has a demon trapped inside of him, and so does the main character in Jujutsu kaisen Itadori.

If you liked Boogiepop wa Warawanai (2019) add

...then you might like Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gou add

Higurashi Gou and Boogiepop Phantom are mystery anime taking place in a single story with a connected set of characters. They're both also horror and have some of the same gross out creepy aspects while maintaining a good atmosphere at times. If you like one you'll like the other.

If you liked Boogiepop wa Warawanai (2019) add

...then you might like [Oshi no Ko] add

Oshi no Ko is another twisted anime to watch if you liked the plot twists and confusion of Boogiepop And Other. Not certain Oshi no Ko Have same dementia

If you liked Casshern Sins add

...then you might like Shinsekai yori add

Both slow down the pace. These are not action shows really. The put emphasis on colors and symbols. Not necessarily what something is, but what it means. Hidden details add much more to the story when thought about.

If you liked Blame! Movie add

...then you might like NieR:Automata Ver1.1a add

Both are action-oriented sci-fi shows that take place during a war between humanity and artificial lifeforms and similarly follow androids fighting for humans.

If you liked Gunnm add

...then you might like NieR:Automata Ver1.1a add

Both are post-apocalyptic sci-fi shows that have androids as protags and that deal with similar themes/topics (e.g. what it means to be alive). Nier:Automata is more on the actiony side in comparison.

If you liked Casshern Sins add

...then you might like NieR:Automata Ver1.1a add

Both are sci-fi action flicks with androids as protagonists that contemplate similar questions: meaning of being alive, finality of death, religion, AI cognizance, etc. Similar post-apocalyptic settings. Casshern has a more melancholic tone on the whole.

If you liked Overlord II add

...then you might like Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! 2nd Season add

Overlord is the golden standard for isekais, I like that both the main characters have their stories started by a misunderstanding of the extremely intelligent subordinates. I also like how insanely OP they both are.

If you liked Overlord add

...then you might like Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! add

The Eminence in Shadow is far inferior to Overlord in many ways, but they both contain the incredibly specific trope of a guy being reincarnated into a fantasy world where he suddenly gains much power and many subordinates, and as a result he has to keep up the act of a perfect and all-knowing leader (when he is really no such thing).

If you liked Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch add

...then you might like Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! add

the protagonist make articulated and complicated plans that reveal interesting plot, like the mc and the shadow garden.

If you liked Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch R2 add

...then you might like Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! 2nd Season add

Both involve a protagonist who is given supernatural powers and creates a masked persona to go by. They both use their newfound powers under their said guises and create a rebel organization dedicated towards fighting the currupt governments and sinister groups respectively. Cid and Lelouch are also very similar in personality. While Cid is also a lot less serious and brooding than Lelouch and tends to act like a fool (both on purpose and accident) but like Lelouch he's got a sadistic side to him. He also implies that he has a master plan that he wants to take himself down to, which Lelouch also shares. Code Geass is more story driven with a far more serious tone and theme, along with a more centralized and developed cast. While Eminence feels more like a parody, with many character introductions skimmed or skipped. But there's just enough weight and a ton of self-consciousness to keep it both refreshing and fun to watch. Code Geass is definitely the better show, but even in direct comparison Eminence holds up well - and is a solid recommendation for fans of one to go to the other.

If you liked Ansatsu Kyoushitsu 2nd Season add

...then you might like Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan 2 add

They are both very hilarious and so unique. It’s hard to find many good, well developed, non-cliché characters like the main characters in both of these. In every episode, you are sure to be laughing and I highly recommend watching them.

If you liked Ansatsu Kyoushitsu add

...then you might like Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan add

The humor in Saiki and AssClass is quite similar, as are the way all its characters interact. They're both based on a premise having to do with an irregular character with powers and take place largely at a school. AssClass is far more plot-based and ends up being more serious and Saiki leaves more room for pure comedy, however.

If you liked No Game No Life add

...then you might like Liar Liar add

While No Game No Life has a much different setting (fantasy isekai), both of these shows are all about a guy (with the help of a girl) who partakes in games where players are pit in a psychological battle of wits. Lots of layers of outmaneuvering your opponent. I think if liked the games in one show, you'd also like the other.

If you liked Kakegurui add

...then you might like Liar Liar add

Both anime feature a school for high stakes games where challenger students provide game rules to determine victory.

If you liked Liar Liar add

...then you might like Tomodachi Game add

Both anime feature similarly convoluted psychological games in an environment that pits friends or sudents against each other in a high-stakes setting.

If you liked Bungou Stray Dogs 2nd Season add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen 2nd Season add

They both have that great comedy-action mix that's really enjoyable to watch (at least for me), and complex characters with emotional backstories that manage to get you every time.

If you liked Bungou Stray Dogs add

...then you might like Jujutsu Kaisen add

Has similar dynamics such as the supernatural and plotline aspects. Involves MC gaining/finding their power although one is based in a detective agency and the other enters the schooling scene. Both have humorous tones although they follow a serious man vs self conflict. TW for Bungou stray dogs as it has suicide/abuse themes. Both are in the action genre so violence and death is included.

If you liked Gunslinger Girl add

...then you might like Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii desu ka? add

Both shows have little girls that serve as dangerous weapons and are meant to fight instead of the adults that take care of them.

If you liked Gunslinger Girl add

...then you might like Lycoris Recoil add

Both about gunslinging girls, Lycoris Recoil is more cheerful, less lethal. Similar feeling when wathing, few times had a feeling those are a part of the series.

If you liked Saishuu Heiki Kanojo add

...then you might like Dolls' Frontline add

Saikano and Dolls' Frontline are both about little girls who have had their body's altered to become great weapons. If you like great violence and cute girls watch these series.

If you liked Bokura no add

...then you might like Hoshi no Samidare add

both revolve around a group of characters with different morals, abilities and etc. that are forced to defend the world against a threat they do not fully comprehend and to put there own lifes on the line while doing so. both delve into psychological struggles these characters undergo in the process and the heavy impact it has on ther mental state.

If you liked Bokura no add

...then you might like Shinsekai yori add

At first glance these 2 shows aren't all that similar but my gut tells me otherwise so bare with me. Children suddenly find themselves working to keep the people they love safe. The children in both shows have access to special powers. Mecha in Bokurano, telekinesis in From the New World. The atmosphere and the tone of both shows are very similar along with a dark feeling of doom that keeps you watching to see what will happen next.

If you liked Show By Rock!! Mashumairesh!! add

...then you might like BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!! add

Both series focus on lost girls forming a band and navigating interpersonal conflicts and internal angst along the way. Mashumairesh is much sillier and a little gayer, MyGO is much heavier and more neurodiverse, but both have a deep and empathetic heart for people searching to connect with each other through music.

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

...then you might like Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight add

They are pretty much the same even the wish of the main character but revue starlight is softer without despair for anyone who don’t really want to be depressed but just emotional.

If you liked Strawberry Panic add

...then you might like Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight add

The two share a similar narrative tone with equal doses of drama and comedy in an all-girls school setting. In both, stage performance is a major subplot, as are the themes of rivalry and predestination. Both also feature a character with a strong but one-sided attraction to one of the protagonists. While Revue Starlight isn't officially GL, it still has very prominent yuri undertones.

If you liked Kaleido Star add

...then you might like Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight add

Both Revue Starlight and Kaleido Star have supernatural elements working on the sidelines for a high-stakes performance arts setting, with a lot of symbolic competition and a main character who strives to be the best. Both have a lot of side characters who go through development. If you're a fan of one stage story anime, you'll probably like the other.

If you liked Little Witch Academia (TV) add

...then you might like Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight add

Both feature a plucky girl that watch to achieve her dreams despite not being the most ideal candidate. Both shows end up being much more than they seem from the earlier episodes.

If you liked Princess Tutu add

...then you might like Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight add

Both shows focus on the students of a school of performative arts, with a narrative about... well, the narrative. The characters rebel against the tragedythey are stuck in, as dictated by a story-within-a-story, which lends itself to meta-discussions about stories and fate. Both shows further have some mahou shoujo elements, Princess Tutu obviously more so. In both, the characters fight using dancing to convey their emotions.
