If you liked Slayers add

...then you might like Yousei Hime Ren add

Treasure hunting comedies. Slayers is a large franchise, while Elf Princess Rane is just a short two-episode OVA, but both anime are from the same time period, use a lot of magic, have similar character designs and (partly) similar type of humor.

If you liked Midnight Eye: Gokuu add

...then you might like Space Adventure Cobra add

The main characters are very similar - an adult, self-confident, cold but determined and straightforward men, which also have a kind of super sci-fi weapon built into their bodies and easily fall for women, and the plot itself is built around helping them. Both anime are serious, dark, and adult-oriented, but Midnight Eye is OVA - so there is more of that.

If you liked Ninja Mono add

...then you might like Karakuri no Kimi add

Short OVAs that constantly and qualitatively balance between silly comedy and a serious tragic and even bloody story, set in feudal medieval Japan with very good and exciting ninja-type action scenes.

If you liked Juuni Kokuki add

...then you might like Kusuriya no Hitorigoto add

The Twelve Kingdoms takes place in a fantasy world with magic, is an isekai and generally more of an adventure type story, but technically both anime are "chinese" court dramas with a young girl in the lead role. Both shows are aimed at a female audience, but without a significant bias in that direction, and therefore also have a significant share of male fans, in particular thanks to the very good balance between the emotional and practical parts of the narrative.

...then you might like Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! add

Comedies with absurdly overpowered MCs which has problems with understanding or express emotions. Difference is that The Eminence in Shadow is intentional comedy while Classroom of the Elite - unintentional.

If you liked Tenamonya Voyagers add

...then you might like Sol Bianca add

Two OVAs from the 90s about a group of girls and their (often not really legal) adventures in space. Both have a fairly short runtime and no clear ending.

If you liked Heppoko Jikken Animation Excel♥Saga add

...then you might like Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt add

Highly chaotic and absurd comedies where each episode is a parody at something different (genre, cliché, etc.). Also, the pair of main characters are very similar - one is an energetic blonde and the other is a more phlegmatic "gothic" character.

If you liked Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan - Tsuioku-hen add

...then you might like The Hakkenden add

Beautifully looking dramatic "samurai" stories. Sword battles, violence and blood, resentment and revenge, love and loss, tragic life circumstances, political intrigues.. Both anime also are hand-drawn with style and high quality.

If you liked 3x3 Eyes add

...then you might like Bannou Bunka Neko-Musume add

The author of both animes is the same. If you like the type of humor and characters in one of these animes, then it is very likely that you will like these elements in the other, because they are very similar. The difference is that Nuku-Nuku is a more light-hearted comedy, while 3x3 is a dark fantasy with only elements of comedy.

If you liked Lucky☆Star add

...then you might like Joshiraku add

Both are dialogue-based comedies. A group of girls discuss random things and sometimes visit local places. Both have a lot of parody and a bit of dark humor.

If you liked Great Teacher Onizuka add

...then you might like Master Keaton add

These two anime are different in form, but the same in essence. They are both about a main character who gives "life lessons" to the audience through the screen. The difference is that in GTO this wisdom is oriented to teenagers, while in Keaton it has a more adult/universal approach.

If you liked 3x3 Eyes add

...then you might like Tattoon Master add

These two OVAs have a very similar beginning: an unusual girl with magical powers from faraway lands comes to the city to meet an ordinary schoolboy who is the son of the one who researched her tribe. And then there is a mix of many genres - a little romance, a little everyday life, a little action, a little comedy, a little drama, etc. The only difference is that 3x3 Eyes is a much darker and a little better overall.

If you liked Sol Bianca add

...then you might like Silent Möbius: The Motion Picture add

Formally, Silent Mobius is two films, while Sol Bianca is a two-part OVA, but they are almost the same length. They have a very similar overall vibe: both have an all-girl squad with interesting interaction between them and similar character designs, a bit of action, and a loosely developed world and plot. The only main difference is that Bianca is little bit more comedy-oriented, while Mobius is more drama-oriented.

If you liked Dark Gathering add

...then you might like Dandadan add

These two shows have the same basic "plot skeleton" - the main characters are forced by certain circumstances to hunt various ghosts. Overall, Dandadan feels like a much less serious but very very very very very very much improved version of Dark Gathering.

If you liked Mawaru Penguindrum add

...then you might like Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction (ONA) add

These two shows are completely different, but at the same time have a lot of very similar vibes. The key theme in both is the reaction of different parts of society to a certain significant event (a terrorist attack in the subway and the arrival of aliens). In both shows, there is a lot of direct social criticism and in the form of metaphors too. And both have: - a lot of mystery - a lot of philosophy - unique art style - not cliched characters - a mix of everyday life and comedy with drama - wonderful music - complete finished story

If you liked Texhnolyze add

...then you might like Fate/Extra: Last Encore add

Both take place in something like a "dying world" and in both main characters want to "get to the top". Also, the plot and the world at the beginning of the story are very unclear and hard to understand.

If you liked Ookami to Koushinryou add

...then you might like Sousou no Frieren add

In general, they are united by the same vibe of "leisurely long journey" also: - the main female character lives much longer than ordinary people - medieval setting
