MasterDetective said:
Noragami, because its somewhat similar to Zetsuen no Tempest
Rec, based of Kanon and Clannad, its a short and sweet romance
Hatsukoi Limited, cause you like romance
Chihayafuru, cause this and Hanasaku Iroha have those determined female protags

Seems like you want good romance/dramas, usually based in schools. Comedy is good, if you liked Sakurasou, Special A and Toradora.

Byousoku 5 centimeter - Romance/Drama - It's a touching 3 episode movie. Story progresses slowly, but it is probably the purest romance out there.
Kotoura-san - Romance/Comedy/Drama - Based around an ESP girl in a normal world. Apparently there's a romance that starts, but I have only seen up to episode 4. I can promise you, it is definately something that you will like.
Guilty Crown - Drama/Romance/Action - Typical guy fights for girl anime. A lot happens, but there is a good amount of drama in later episodes. The ending made me cry man-tears.

not as sure about this one but
Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu - mainly a comedy, romance - It has really good comedy, usually based on the protagonist's stupidity. He is loved by two girls, which creates even more humour.

Should have checked your list before :/
Either way, watch Guilty Crown

Man I can't believe you actually dropped Bakuman. Well, it's true that the 1st season of Bakuman seems kind of meh, but trust me, it only gets better from there. For me, the reason why I watch Bakuman is because I'm quite interested with how the romance between the male and the female MC is taking shape. In fact, it's slowly but steadily getting better by the minute. That, and the struggles and realities the mangaka face in the manga industry. It's as realistic a slice of life as it can get in terms of depicting the life of a mangaka.

Another anime I recommend is Juuni Kokuki (The Twelve Kingdoms). It's been a long time since I watched that, but the reason I like this is because of the great storytelling and the unique Chinese culture associated with it.

Nodame Cantabile because it is just hilarious, and after watching this, you will be inspired by just how great classical music is.

So yeah, basically these three anime.

@Roy: OP is asking which anime similar to his Top 20 should he watch, not which of the Top 20 should he watch. He obviously has already watched those Top 20.

Part-time Devil
Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun
Gintama
Shinsekai yori
Penguindrum

I'd really recommend Shinsekai yori > Penguindrum > Gintama > Nozaki-kun > Part-time Devil

Sorry misread your title

Hunter x Hunter 2011 is a fantastic anime. You like some shounen I see and this anime certainly blows almost everything out the water. 3rd highest rated anime on all of MAL and deservingly so.

Trigun is a classic anime plain and simple. Everyone should watch it. It has a great combination of comedy and action and once the anime starts to get more serious in its second half... I'll just let you watch and enjoy.

Samurai Champloo is a badass anime. There's no other way to describe. Same director from Cowboy Bepop, definitely give it a chance.

I highly recommend you pick up Durarara!! again since I see that you dropped it. It's by all the people who made Baccano! which you loved and imo it's simply a better version. I find that Durarara!! has a superior setting, better characters and is simply more interesting. It's also getting a boatload of extra seasons coming up so that's a major plus.

Hunter x Hunter 2011 is a long running action, battle, magic, fantasy, etc. anime like InuYasha and is thought provoking similar to Zetsuen no Tempest. It's a little deeper then your average shounen. The characters are developed so well and their relationships are paramount to the story. The anime also has a large cast like Angel Beats has and a developing sense of companionship amongst the characters.

Champloo is kinda similar. You've got your awesome fight scenes and I saw you gave Bebop such a high rating although it's not listed here. Great sword fighting scenes though and the animation style and action is so cool. Episodic style with an overarching plot point also relates some of the anime here I think.

I haven't seen everything in your top so relating Trigun is a little hard. I chose it simply because it's a classic, I've never heard of anyone who disliked Trigun, and honestly it should be on everyone's list similar to Bepop.

For Nodame Cantabile, it's a rom com that I would say is better than Toradora.

For Juuni Kokuki, I would say it's somewhat akin to Inuyasha in terms of the world/setting. The start is also similar in that the main heroine is suddenly teleported into a feudal world. And as stated earlier, it has a great storyline.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica - Similar with Steins;Gate
Noragami - Somewhat similar with Zetsuen no Tempest, as another person has said.
The Daily lives of Highschool Boys - Similar with Sket Dance.

Senyuu!! laughed all the way through. has two seasons and short episodes lasting about 4 minutes. I've re-watched the series a countless number of times.
