Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien is probably the best anime I've ever seen, and it's a bit like Shuffle. They are both based on a H-game, they both have focus on the relationsips between the characters, the main-character in both shows is detestable (IMO ) and they both caused large arguments about who would should end up with the main guy.
If you haven't seen KGNE yet I recommend you to watch the two first episodes, you'll probably want to see more after that... |

And I guess I should warn the OP. KGNE might make you feel a bit angsty for a couple of days. Some of the episodes are pretty depressing (but in a good way ). |

Don't worry, not to incite flame or anything, but Shuffle isn't anything too unique that you can't find a series similar to it. If you're asking for a series similar to it, that is. If you're asking for an anime better than Shuffle, in my opinion there is PLENTY (I found Shuffle pretty generic). I know what you mean by feeling "empty" when a series you were following approached its end, I felt that way with FMA.
Similar series to Shuffle which may fill the Shuffle void: Canvas 2: Canvas is pretty much generic, too, but like Shuffle, it has a few interesting characters which make it worth watching. It's currently being subbed. I like this better than Shuffle, but I like Shuffle's character designs WAY more. Elfen Lied: Perhaps this is a far stretch, but if by any chance what you like about Shuffle is: Spoiler:
You'd definately like this, it's like *that* episode of Shuffle, but instead, every episode of Elfen Lied is much, much more bloody and extreme. AIR: Well, this shouldn't be really compared to Shuffle. But it really is a masterpiece in every aspect, and if you liked the multiple girls + comedy aspect of Shuffle, then you may like this. Except it's more heavy on the drama, and it isn't really romance. Futakoi (first): I don't even know why I am recommending this, but I found Futakoi really similar to the early episodes of Shuffle, except that Shuffle's characters are much more interesting. I hated it, but you may like it. No fanservice (I don't care for it anyway, but you may), generic characters, but the humour shares some similarities with Shuffle in my opinion. |

To the original poster, sorry if you consider this a spoiler, but there is no *proper* resolution to the love "pentagon" in the series. |

Canvas 2 is ongoing. Lamune just finished in Japan, as did Suzuka, thought the final fansubs aren't out. Futakoi and Futakoi Alternative are 6 months to a year old, can't remember exactly. Da Capo is a few years old, Da Capo SS just finished in Japan. KGNE is old.
Other recent animes that could be said to have love stories in are Koi Koi 7, Love Love and possibly Karin. But the first two are pretty much fanservice based, and the third is mostly mixed genre. |
