I'm looking for anime that leaves with the same feeling as after watching following:

- Code Geass (I liked music, main characters and story)
- Madoka Magica (I liked music, story, style)
- Steins;Gate (I liked story and main characters)
- Higurashi no Naku Koro ni / kai (I liked story)
- Mirai Nikki (I liked story)
- Full metal alchemist: Brotherhood (I liked secondary characters and story)

I know these are mainstream and one of the best anime, but I'm sure there are many hidden gems that I missed.

So, please share what you've got. I want to spend my rest of the week wondering what happened in "that" anime.

@SenpieX, Btoom was certainly good, but it didn't trigger anything in me after finishing. Death Note was good, really good, but I didn't like it's ending. Another is not like higurashi, higurashi has really interesting plot twist.

I'll try your other recommendations, they seem promising.

Well this is an anime movie "HAL" it had a hearbreaking plot twist
"When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when... they are forgotten."

My favorite quotes from animes:

Those who seek miracles will never experience one. The hand of salvation only extends to people
who try to make miracles happen. - Ef a tale of melodies.
I destroy worlds. I create worlds. - Code geass
We are humans. - Shinsekai yori

I'll separate this into 2 categories.

Anime with a plot twist (p.s. I know some might disagree with me, but these are ones that I personally thought had some sort of plot twist in it):
~Shinsekai Yori
~Perfect Blue
~Hal
~Charlotte
~Pupipo!

Anime that leaves you wondering what just happened:
~Shiki
~Mononoke
~Aoi Bungaku Series
~Ayakashi: Japanese Classic Horror
~Ergo Proxy
~Denpa-teki na Kanojo (could be both, I guess)
~Neon Genesis Evangelion
~RE:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
~Death Parade (certain episodes)
~Clannad: After Story
~Jigoku Shoujo
~Paprika
~Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom
~Mayoiga

+1 Shinsekai Yori (if you liked Madoka Magica, I definitely recommend this). Set in a futuristic world where humans have evolved supernatural powers. Basically a dark coming-of-age story, a bit similar to PMMM's.

You might also like to try out Psycho-Pass. Has a few plot twists in it, but not as intense as the ones in Shinsekai Yori.
