If you liked Higashi no Eden add

...then you might like Zankyou no Terror add

These two anime both literally begin with a bang, i.e. a terrorist attack in Tokyo. They are both beautifully animated and feature interesting young protagonists in the adult world.

If you liked Akira add

...then you might like Shinsekai yori add

As with Akira, Shinsekai yori features characters with extraordinary powers that can't quite be explained in conventional ways. The story of Shinsekai yori is set 1000 years in the future, a time in which Man has evolved into beings with extraordinary powers and an obscure history that unfolds slowly but surely as the plot unfolds. Unlike Akira however, Shinsekai yori's setting involves next to no technology and given how it's a 25 episode anime, the characters are fleshed out better and the plot isn't as vague.
