If you liked Redline add

...then you might like Cyberpunk: Edgerunners add

Similar vibe of fast-paced action and extreme visuals accentuating the distorted reality.

If you liked Teekyuu add

...then you might like Suzakinishi The Animation add

Similar hilarious fast-spoken shorts with absurd humor, unexpected punch lines, lots of exaggerated reaction faces. Suzakinishi is basically Teekyuu lite.

If you liked Choboraunyopomi Gekijou Ai Mai Mii add

...then you might like Suzakinishi The Animation add

Similar hilarious fast-spoken shorts with absurd humor, unexpected punch lines, lots of exaggerated reaction faces.

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Tokushusen Asuka add

...then you might like Hataraku Saibou Black add

Same director, same feel of "dark" dramatization of otherwise mundane dialogs, events, and facial expressions.

If you liked Hello World add

...then you might like Null Peta add

Protagonists are using the virtual world to meet/help a person who's unavailable in the real world. Their quests both have plenty of adventures, heartwarming and heartbreaking moments. The overall tone is different though: Null Peta leans towards childish comedy at least in its first half, Hello World is more dramatic/realistic.

If you liked Heppoko Jikken Animation Excel♥Saga add

...then you might like Mahou Yuugi 2D add

Weird/peculiar humor, often meta. Similar wacky characters Excel - Zucchini, Il Palazzo - Purilun. Both shows give off a similar vibe and overall feel of an experimental animation not bound by chains of reason.

If you liked Kanashimi no Belladonna add

...then you might like Yuukai Anna add

Beautiful, weird, psychedelic imagery, absurdity mixed with distorted depictions of reality, and experimental aesthetics of the '60s or '70s counterculture. Where the famous Belladonna of Sadness excels and exceeds our expectations, Yuukai Anna often falls somewhat short, while still being a mildly interesting work obviously inspired by the famous predecessor.

If you liked Tentai Senshi Sunred add

...then you might like To Be Hero add

Goofy protagonist (also gross in To Be Hero) and evil heroes constantly end up in comically exaggerated normal family activities like talking, eating, arguing.

If you liked Appleseed (Movie) add

...then you might like Harmony add

The underlying themes are similar. A global system that totally controls behavior of individuals in a futuristic town depicted in a quite elaborate sci-fi fashion. An attempt to dissect the eternal dilemma of happiness vs free will. A happiness that is nurtured/enforced by the system in order to prevent the basic barbaric instincts of human race from instigating suicidal wars.   Pacing-wise, the two movies start off with a cool action sequence involving the heroine and while Harmony becomes a somewhat philosophical contemplation woven around an investigation by a Helix inspector (the heroine) Appleseed keeps being more action-packed.

If you liked Appleseed (Movie) add

...then you might like Psycho-Pass Movie add

Both movies are full of action, cyberpunk, sci-fi weapons and gadgets, with a few high-quality hand-to-hand combat scenes, both have a female protagonist and what left of civilization is controlled by an artificial intelligence system that decides what is best for people, but the methods are questionable and those questions are raised by the female protagonist in her dangerous journey.

If you liked Golgo 13 (TV) add

...then you might like Aa Harimanada add

Golgo and Harimanada are both invincible, living by their own strong rules, dead serious but also self-assuredly relaxed. And they don't talk much. Their deeds do. This is especially true for Golgo while Harimanada is less emotionally detached and occasionally insults his opponents violently bashing their poor effort. Both characters are voiced by great actors with deep and memorable voices.

If you liked Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou add

...then you might like Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun add

Nozaki's protagonist's attitude is highly reminiscent of DKnN characters. Laid back, unobtrusive, and at the same time producing an unexpected amount of humorous turn-abouts in seemingly regular and mundane situations.

If you liked Maihime add

...then you might like Joseito add

Both being parts of Ga-nime project the two narratives take you in a voyage through the dreamy world betwixt literature and animated illustration of a girl's life.

If you liked Innocence add

...then you might like Gasaraki add

A surreal inlay of the traditional Japanese dance and eerie music in Gasaraki strongly reminds of chants during the parade in GITS Innocence movie, a poetic timelessness encompassing realistically detailed portraits of cyberpunk in GITS and military sci-fi in Gasaraki, both serious and solemn.

If you liked Monster add

...then you might like Gasaraki add

Similar background buildup of fear and imminent surreal terror while the story itself is being unfolded in a pretty realistic fashion, with attention to technical/sci-fi/mystical details, convincing rendition of multiple characters, and the overall grim as well as solemn feel.

If you liked Shingeki no Kyojin add

...then you might like Kingdom 2nd Season add

Fervent, inspired main character gains life and battle experience. Ruthless battles of epic scale.

If you liked Gakkatsu! add

...then you might like Turning Girls add

Both have bizarre humor and situations as well as primitive yet somewhat creative animation and character art.

If you liked Koroshiya 1 The Animation: Episode 0 add

...then you might like Riki-Oh: Toukatsu Jigoku add

Gore & violence, no remorse, killing in one shot.

If you liked Innocence add

...then you might like Mardock Scramble: The Second Combustion add

1. unique visualization of cyberspace (not much of it, but nevertheless) 2. occasionally grim atmosphere 3. Dimsdale-Boiled is somewhat reminiscent of the enigmatic terrorist leader Hideo Kuze from S.A.C. 2nd GIG or even Batou 4. non-rushed pace, occasional dialogues revealing life values 5. moments of intense action
