If you liked Mononoke Hime add

...then you might like Bounen no Xamdou add

Both feature a lost boy searching for his purpose, where both of them have received powers that they didn't ask for. They both meet a mysterious girl who helps them throughout their journey but also acts as the deuteragonist/protagonist. Both series involve themes of dying nature and tackles the problem of human interaction and nature (In Mononoke, humans tearing down forests; in Xam'd, humans abusing shamans for personal gain.) Symbolism is also integrated in both series, some symbols being "rebirth" and "hope." Both series also feature great artwork, animation, and soundtracks.

Similar school setting with 4 close friends (+ one more in KtB). Both are slice of life with unique art styles. OP sequences are also similar.

If you liked Gosick add

...then you might like Dantalian no Shoka add

Both are set in a WW1/post war era. A foreign boy meets an odd, small and fragile girl who has some sort of 'power'. The characters show a very distinct similarity, just that their hair color is inverse (Hugh→Kujo; Dalian→Victorique). Both pairs team up solving mysteries.

If you liked Durarara!! add

If you liked Hachimitsu to Clover add

...then you might like Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai. add

Both involve a group of friends learning to grow up from adolescence. Characters experience lost opportunities and learn from new ones.

If you liked Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei add

...then you might like C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control add

Small actions result in large results. In Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei, the protagonist explores the different paths he may take while in college, which in each one results in his demise. In C, the protagonist ventures in the world of the 'Financial District.' In that world, those who lost 'money' or go bankrupt would suffer in the real world. Both series share the common idea of earning an opportunity that could either make or break you.

If you liked Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi add

...then you might like Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou add

A world that involves monsters and spirits to exist, but only the main character who is human being able to see them. They both have companions, Haku being a counterpart to Nyanko sensei. Both involve growth from adolescence and helping others as a theme.

If you liked Jigoku Shoujo add

...then you might like Shigofumi add

Mysterious dead girls bestowing the fate of a person with an item i.e. shigofumi and dolls. Both shows are episodic dramas focused mainly on the characters.

If you liked Shinryaku! Ika Musume add

...then you might like Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko add

Both feature mysterious blue haired 'aliens.' Both are comedy.

If you liked Higashi no Eden add

...then you might like C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control add

Both involve money and both have fluid animations. Also, characters are pitted against each other like a game.

If you liked Hachimitsu to Clover add

...then you might like Hanasaku Iroha add

Both have same the same atmosphere to them. Both have the recurring theme of adolescence and tackling life's hard choices. Both main characters (Takemoto and Ohana) are undecided about their future and do their best to help others. They also feature insert songs that fit the mood of what is happening during the show. IMO Hanasaku Iroha is a Honey and Clover more targeted towards teenagers, rather than older viewers or college students.

If you liked Bokura no add

...then you might like Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica add

Madoka has the same premise as Bokurano: a group of kids that are pulled into a contract not knowing what's ahead of them. Both of these shows have the theme of "fighting for what believe in or what you have left." Despite Madoka being a mahou shoujo show, these shows share a lot of similarities i.e Kyubey and Dung Beetle.
