...then you might like Dennou Coil add

The Ghost in the Shell series, specifically the 'Stand Alone Complex', and Denno Coil feature worlds where the internet has been heavily integrated into society. Each anime shares this feature; however, both take drastically different perspectives. Ghost in the Shell is what some would call a 'hard' science fiction, whereas, under the same scrutiny, Denno Coil would be considered a 'soft' science fiction. I think the adjectives 'hard' and 'soft' to a lot to describe the differences between the anime in terms of art, sound, story, and animation. For example, Ghost in the Shell takes the perspective of agents of the government who have cybernetic implants which they use to kill the bad guys. Denno Coil takes the perspective of children who frequently play games, and solve puzzles. In both cases connecting to the network causes an entire meta-world to open up for the characters to explore. People who enjoyed either of these anime should be able to find some enjoyment in the other for the above mentioned reasons.
