If you liked Nodame Cantabile add

...then you might like Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso add

Shigatsu and Nodame are very much alike, here are my reasoning. Both anime have a male protagonist who excels at playing the piano. In the case of Nodame the protagonist can also play the violin at a high level. Nodame is more centered around comedy than shigatsu. Which gives it in my opinion a more light hearted feel. Shigatsu focuses more on the psychological and dark side of being a prodigy where the romantic relationship is introduced and becomes important later on. Nodame on the other hand introduces the romantic side much earlier on and focuses more on the romantic comedy style. Both anime are very much based around the theme of classical music with a focus on piano and piano & violin duo. In both anime the female part takes a big place in the development of both the protagonist and the story. Romance is a theme which both anime are centered around. They both handle this romance theme very well and it is very well intertwined in the story. There is a nice balance of romance / music in both anime. In my opinion, Nodame can be watched casually without focusing too much, while Shigatsu requires more attention from the viewer to completely understand the feeling of the characters and follow the story. I think these two anime will appeal to both romance and music lovers. Either one is worth watching.

If you liked Mushishi add

...then you might like Ookami to Koushinryou add

This is a genre of anime that I personally am in love with. Both of these animes are about traveling. These two anime manage to blend in fantasy with reality in such a way that will not seem far-fetched at all. Mushishi is a little more calm compared to S&W. Both animes have beautiful art. What I like most about these two animes is that they are both set in a medeval time peroid, although it's harder to see what time peroid Mushishi is in, it's not as important as it is in Spice and Wholf. Watch both of these anime if you want to set your mind at peace and relax. I highly recommend them!

Both shows have their main character(s) inside games. Both main characters are highly intelligent/are higher level then the other "players". Both shows have beautiful and colorful art and sound. Allthough NGNL has more comedy, both shows are great.

If you liked To LOVE-Ru add

...then you might like B-gata H-kei add

Both animes are about a girl trying to get a guy. Both animes have other girls liking the main guy. Allthough To LOVE-Ru is a little more ecchi. I think both shows are great. The girl is naked in front of the guy in the first episodes in both shows, You should definitly watch both of these if you liked one of them.
