If you liked B-gata H-kei add

...then you might like Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun add

Awkward, comedic romance is in the air with both anime. While Nozaki-kun is certainly more wholesome than B-gata H-kei, whose protagonist's perverted sensibilities dictate the pace, both are honestly genuinely heartwarming. I don't know why I found myself rooting for an ecchi anime couple so hard, but god dammit, I did. This is more of a recommendation for B-gata H-kei than anything, but seriously, this anime (although not incredible by any means) is way better than it has any right to be! Both also have a pretty solid English dub, so if that's more your speed, you're in luck.

Fantastic fight scenes, hilarious awkward comedic beats, and serious, yet heartwarming moments. Both MP100 and Scissor Seven hit all these beats, with lovable characters driving the plot forward. MP100's stronger plot-wise, while SS is more enemy-of-the-week, and SS's humor is more adult, relative to the middle-schooler-driven MP100. Both also feature highly experimental animation styles that lend themselves to be watched over and over again. If you liked (or loved, as I do) one, you will certainly like the other!!!

If you liked Mob Psycho 100 add

...then you might like Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na! add

Eizouken and Mob Psycho are pretty different in terms of tone and subject matter, but where they both shine is in their animation. The teams of both have a clear passion for and deep respect of art and animation, and give unique spins to their styles to accentuate different aspects. Eizouken's sketchy sequences which blend imagination and reality are breathtakingly beautiful and extremely fun, while MP100 uses techniques like paint-on-glass to capture an ethereal and otherworldly vibe. Humor is pretty similar for both series. Often, they will take "realistic" set-ups and exaggerate them for the sake of comedy, while still maintaining a down-to-earth feeling and sincere characters. Both follow unique and charming protagonists in a slice-of-life setting. Although one is a slice-of-life about making anime, and the other is a shounen about psychics, both are heartfelt, sincere anime about being true to yourself and putting in hard work to become the best possible version of yourself.

If you liked Osomatsu-san add

...then you might like Cike Wu Liuqi add

Both are absurd comedies featuring asshole protagonists and a colorful supporting cast. Both mix drama and comedy effectively with brilliant, outlandish animation. Osomatsu and Seven both heavily rely on visual gags, and while Osomatsu has Seven beat in terms of pure absurdity, Seven's fight scenes are utterly gorgeous and really make the most of its 14 minute run. Great shows that get you invested in the cast despite their weirdness!

If you liked Natsume Yuujinchou add

...then you might like Hotarubi no Mori e add

Both focus on youkai, the spiritual world, and the connection of people to it. Both take a softer and slower pace, and focus on character above action.

If you liked Natsume Yuujinchou add

...then you might like Violet Evergarden add

Violet Evergarden and Natsume Yuujinchou both follow abused and neglected protagonists, who find their place in a cast of colorful characters and learn to embrace the beauty of the world around them. For Natsume, this is by learning to accept both the human and youkai aspects of his life and cherish them both; for Violet, this is by learning the value of emotions, and the complexities of human relationships. Both are shows about healing, and both follow a sort of "one-shot" structure, where the main plot of each episode isn't always intrinsically related to the other episodes.

If you liked Mob Psycho 100 add

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

If you enjoyed the comedic side of Mob Psycho, you'll definitely like Saiki Kusuo, a much less serious gag comedy focused around its similarly overpowered protagonist. While Mob is a bit out of it, Saiki is relentlessly cynical and sarcastic, giving the show a more intense, hilarious vibe compared to MP100. Don't expect touching plot or drama from Saiki K, but it's a great watch anyways. Likewise, if you enjoyed Saiki K but wish it was a tad more serious/dramatic, MP100 is wonderful. Both are great, highly recommend.
