If you liked Great Teacher Onizuka add

...then you might like High School Jingi add

Both series are about perverted hooligan-type protagonists who have ulterior motives for becoming teachers. They use violence to deal with delinquent misfits in their class and elsewhere on campus, with Jouji being more vicious in this regard than Onizuka. Their main love interests are both naive female colleagues who (at least for the one and only OVA episode of High School Jingi) are ineffectual and unable to stop the protagonists' misbehaviour. If you are a fan of GTO's crass, over-the-top comedic scenes then you will probably enjoy High School Jingi since it is a pure comedy with none of the (melo)drama present in GTO.

If you liked Cowboy Bebop add

...then you might like Lupin the Third: Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna add

As Shinichiro Watanabe himself has said that Lupin III had the most influence on his work, it is no surprise that Cowboy Bebop shares strong similarities with this show. Faye and Fujiko are both manipulative characters who use their sex appeal for personal gain. Jet and Jigen have similar character designs and attitudes towards women, as chivalrous opponents who have misgivings about them but will aid them when necessary. While Spike and Lupin have different personalities, there is noticeable overlap in their slim body types and facial expressions. I am recommending this Fujiko Mine reboot over the 1971 original because it has a grittier and more serious tone which fits some of Bebop's drama-oriented and solemn episodes.
