If you liked Cesare: Hakai no Souzousha add

...then you might like Shoukoku no Altair add

Both stories based on Renaissance European history (about the same time period) with beguiling art and loads of political intrigue/backstabbing

If you liked Le Chevalier D'Eon add

...then you might like Shoukoku no Altair add

Both sumptuous historical AU fantasies packed with intrigue and swashbuckling (and a blond pretty protagonist I guess)

If you liked Kakurenbo add

...then you might like Kyousou Giga (2012) add

A group of young protagonists get caught up in an extended chase sequence, with demonic foes and an overarching mystery behind it all.

If you liked xxxHOLiC add

...then you might like Kyousou Giga (2012) add

Quirky supernatural humour with some action thrown in. It's hard not to draw parallels between Yuuko and Lady Koto.

If you liked Mononoke add

...then you might like Kyousou Giga (2012) add

Colourful and at times nonsensical anime about the relationship between demons and the human world, chock full of references to Japanese mythology and starring a mysterious protagonist who is not what they appear. The animation is very high quality, especially in action scenes, and there's always something to look at due to the rich art styles. While Mononoke is a historical series with a set of goals for each arc, and Kyousogiga is set in the modern era and depicts random events, the elements of mystery and madness tie them together and make them, if nothing else, a joy to experience.

If you liked Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan add

...then you might like Donten ni Warau add

Meiji Period dramas revolving around the decline of the samurai class as Japan opened its gates to the outside world. In particular, the conflict between samurai and police officers (with a ninja or two thrown in) may seem familiar. Donten ni Warau is more of a fantasy story than the action-packed Rurouni Kenshin, but it does include exciting fight scenes and some wacky characters wielding unusual weapons. Also, both series manage to balance their sad or serious moments with hilarious slapstick humour.

If you liked Amatsuki add

...then you might like Donten ni Warau add

Historical (well, partially) shojo manga with similarly beautiful art styles and set just a few hundred years apart. Share themes such as magic, samurai, and Japanese mythology, as well as a sense that circumstances and people are not all they seem. Both contain a mixed combination of dialogue, action, and humour.
