I'm not too sure what kind of genres you like best but I thought these animes were pretty good:

Code Geass (season 1 & 2)
Nausica of the Valley of the Wind
Naruto (season 1 is good, season 2 or shippuden i think is kinda "meh")
Azumanga Daioh
Elven Lied
Tsukihime
Samurai Deeper Kyo
Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Vision of Escaflowne
Darker Than Black

Lot more that I like but since I'm lazy...Hope this keeps you busy ^^v

Well I think there are several you might like, but you'll never know until you check out a few episodes.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is pretty close to what you've already enjoyed.

Some others that are a just little different but I think you should try:

Full Metal Panic! - action/adventure and humor
Crest of The Stars - scifi action/adventure
Shakugan no Shana - action
Chrono Crusade - action/tragedy
Read or Die
Chrome Shelled Regios - Sci-fi action
Soul Eater - action/adventure and humor
Ranma 1/2 - slapstick martial arts romantic comedy farce
Katanagatari
Neon Genesis Evangelion - dark deconstruction with an anti-hero and plenty of mind screwing Freudian imagery.


The following are different genre the most of the ones you've seen, but you should check them out to see if you'll like them:

Cross Game - Baseball + Romance, a coming of age story
Maison Ikkoku - Romantic comedy
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - a strong and complex sci-fi plot overlaid with a genre mash-up parody.
Hayate the Combat Butler - Parody and romantic comedy
Lucky Star - Seinfeld type humor (a show about nothing), combined with massive amounts of humorous references to other anime shows (don't watch until you've seen most of the others on this list).
CLANNAD - tearjerker romance
Tenchi Muyo - Harem plus space adventures
Kannagi
Kimi ni Todoke - shoujo romance

Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex. This writing and direction in this series makes me feel like I am watching a good live-action television drama (that also has the budget for good special effects).
