If you liked Senpai wa Otokonoko add

...then you might like Puniru wa Kawaii Slime add

Both are about a boy with traditionally feminine interests, who faced backlash because of it. Though Puniru is a comedy and Senpai wa Otokonoko is a drama, making them different in tone, both are very positive in their messages that it’s okay to like whatever you like.

If you liked Time Bokan: Gyakushuu no San Akunin add

...then you might like Acro Trip add

Comedic and colorful series featuring villain protagonists who are very much incompetent but endearing at the same time.

If you liked Boukyaku no Senritsu add

...then you might like Okusama wa Mahou Shoujo add

Due to a shared director and character designer, these series could be blended together seamlessly. Though different plot-wise (Okusama being a magical girl series focused a lot on romance and Melody of Oblivion being more horror and actiony), both provide a bizarre and surreal experience, along with a captivating story.

If you liked Tomica Hyper Rescue Drive Head: Kidou Kyuukyuu Keisatsu add

...then you might like Megumi no Daigo: Kyuukoku no Orange add

Both are series centered around disaster rescue, and take inspiration from the real life Hyper Rescue. While the obvious difference is that Drive Head utilizes giant robots, like Daigo, it emphasizes the human element of rescue to be the most important. Both shows just have a similar vibe.

If you liked Pikaia! add

...then you might like Time Travel Shoujo: Mari Waka to 8-nin no Kagakusha-tachi add

Both are educational anime, complete with a lecture segment at the end of the episode. They both involve kids who get to travel to the past, and are science-themed series.

If you liked Pui Pui Molcar add

...then you might like Go! Go! Vehicle Zoo add

Funny and adorable shorts that feature sentient vehicles and animals.

If you liked Kamisama Minarai: Himitsu no Cocotama add

...then you might like Punirunes add

Both feature the mundane adventures of a bunch of cute, colorful creatures, who live with a human girl. There's even a tsundere sort-of-enemy one, and both human families have a pet cat. Main difference is that the Cocotama have to be kept a secret from the rest of the world while the general populous seems to know about the Punirunes.

If you liked Onegai My Melody add

...then you might like Mewkledreamy add

Both are Sanrio anime that have a focus on people's dreams. They feature talking plushie-esque animals from a magical land coming to the human world and partnering with a group of girls. To avoid spoilers, the best way to put it is that a lot of the characters and situations are so similar they feel like they were intentionally borrowed from Onegai My Melody for Mewkledreamy.

If you liked Kouchuu Ouja Mushiking: Mori no Tami no Densetsu add

...then you might like Battle Spirits: Shounen Toppa Bashin add

Although the genres of these shows are quite different, they also had a lot in common. Both shows had strong focus on parent/child relationships. Bashin and J have aesthetic similarities to Popo and Soma, respectively. Soma and J have story arcs that are very similar as well.

If you liked Spider Riders: Oracle no Yuusha-tachi add

...then you might like Kouchuu Ouja Mushiking: Mori no Tami no Densetsu add

Both are fantasy series with a very mysterious atmosphere. They also both involve giant fighting bugs.

If you liked Battle Spirits: Heroes add

...then you might like Puzzle & Dragon add

Both are over-the-top wacky shows involving kids in competitive gaming, aiming to be the best in the world. They have likeable characters and a good sense of humor, making them entertaining despite neither being plot-heavy at all.

If you liked Denkou Chou Tokkyuu Hikarian add

...then you might like Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion The Animation add

Both anime involve the Shinkansen heavily, though Hikarian has to work around copyrights a bit while Shinkalion is actually sponsored by JR and thus can use actual trains. Still, if you like trains and you want a fun mecha anime, you'll probably enjoy both shows. Shinkalion is more serious and plot-driven while Hikarian is wacky antics for the most part, but it does get serious when it wants to.

If you liked Tomica Hyper Rescue Drive Head: Kidou Kyuukyuu Keisatsu add

...then you might like Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion The Animation add

Both are based on a transforming vehicle-to-robot toyline by Takara Tomy, and both have a similar initial premise. A young boy gets involved in the organization his father works for and becomes a driver of the titular robot due to high compatibility when attempts to get an adult driver failed. From there, they protect the peace from a mysterious enemy while keeping their new position a secret. Main difference is that Shinkalion has a lot more plot and a much higher budget. Drive Head actually has an interesting plot too, but unfortunately has severe pacing issues, so it follows more of a monster-of-the-week format for the most part until they get there. Still, they have a similar feel, and even canonically crossover in Drive Head's movie, so it's worthwhile to watch both.

If you liked Yuusha Keisatsu J-Decker add

...then you might like Tomica Hyper Rescue Drive Head: Kidou Kyuukyuu Keisatsu add

Both are mecha anime involving young kids working together with robots in a police force. Main difference is that in J-Decker the robots are sentient and in Drive Head they're just regular robots piloted by humans. In both shows, girls tend to fall in love with the robots, regardless.

If you liked Ikkitousen add

...then you might like SD Gundam Sangokuden Brave Battle Warriors add

Both are very unusual takes on Romance of the Three Kingdoms. SD Gundam replaces all the characters with Gundams, and in Ikki Tousen's case, they mostly become attractive girls. Although they're clearly aimed at different audiences, there's fun to be had in comparing the two.

If you liked Kidou Butouden G Gundam add

...then you might like Shinkon Gattai Godannar!! add

Both are very fun super robot shows. They involve pilots from various countries working together to face a larger threat. Both have a very strong emphasis on romance as well. Of course, Godannar does have much more fanservice, but despite that, the two series have a very similar feel.

If you liked Battle Spirits: Shounen Toppa Bashin add

...then you might like Dragon Collection add

Fun, lighthearted anime involving card battles, although battles in Dragon Collection aren't played like a structured TCG. Both have very cute art styles, likeable characters and are very funny.

If you liked Shinpi no Sekai El-Hazard (TV) add

...then you might like Spider Riders: Oracle no Yuusha-tachi add

Both are Isekai anime from before the genre was rampant. Ordinary boy gets sent to alternate medieval fantasy-type world. Humans are waging war with bugs. Both are humorous, with some action and romance.
