If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni add

...then you might like Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch add

Code Geass and Higurashi both initially seem kiddish, but manage to overcome that impression by the end of the first episode. The sheer quantity of emotion contained in each series is almost overwhelming, as is the ability of each to switch between being light-hearted and series almost instantaneously. Both are gripping and excellent for marathoning.

These two series tend to have very similar moods and both have strong lead characters, as well as surprisingly involved plots.

If you liked Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu add

...then you might like Angel Beats! add

Both are very whimsical with absurd premises and some character development. Angel Beats! has a much larger cast than Fumoffu and its main characters also develop more. Additionally, Angel Beats! is fairly sad at points.

If you liked Wolf's Rain add

...then you might like Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha add

Bones made both of these animes with about the same depressing, slow-moving tone. The major difference is that DtB is very episodic and Wolf's Rain tends to just wander all over the place. The protagonists, Hei and Kiba, are practically the same character.

If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni add

...then you might like Black★Rock Shooter (OVA) add

Both animes are very strange and somewhat horrifying at times. They also have the ability to alternate between the mundane and much more intense scenarios. Both have superb characters, though those in BRS tend to be more believable and those in Higurashi tend to be more unique.

If you liked Deadman Wonderland add

...then you might like Mirai Nikki (TV) add

To sum it up, Deadman Wonderland is a not-as-good version of Mirai Nikki.

If you liked Bakemonogatari add

...then you might like Durarara!! add

Both shows are visually stunning, filled with interesting characters and fresh. Their plots are also both strange; however, Bakemonogatari's is more episodic, whereas Durarara!!'s starts off episodic and comes together about half way through.

If you liked Higurashi no Naku Koro ni add

...then you might like Another add

Each is a horror anime revolving around a mystery and the graphic deaths of students; however, Higurashi is more light-hearted (at points) and less generic than Another.
