Asura Cryin'
Synopsis:
Three years after an accident that nearly left him for dead, Tomoharu Natsume is about to start his high school life. Though with a ghost named Misao following him around, Tomoharu is far from being an average teenager. One day a strange woman appears and gives him a trunk that contains a tremendous power. This power is known as an Asura Machina - a being that draws its strength from a human sacrifice - and the sacrifice within Tomoharu's Asura is none other than Misao. As the bearer of such a power, Tomoharu immediately becomes the target of various groups, including the Divine Guards, who want his power for their own. When Tomoharu befriends a demon called Kanade and she is captured by the Divine Guards, he joins the Dark Society in order to save her. Now, Tomoharu will have to fight alongside the Dark Society while he tries to find a way to save Misao and bring her back to life.

Ga-Rei -Zero-
Kagura and Yomi are two girls who have a bond that cannot be broken. While once they fought side by side against the supernatural forces that threaten the planet, fate had something different in store for these star-crossed companions. Yet to understand the present, one must first experience the past – a time before Kagura’s involvement with the Supernatural Disaster Prevention Agency. Always cheery and good-natured to a fault, the young Kagura first meets Yomi when she is invited into her home. Over time, the two battle malicious spirits and grow closer together – but soon, more terrifying foes begin to reveal themselves. A swarm of glowing blue butterflies and a mysterious stone are harbingers of darker things to come, and one thing’s for sure: Kagura and Yomi will never be the same.

add recThey're both about fighting demons with some crazy weapons, but Ga-Rei -Zero- is much more cruel and dark.
In both Asura Cryin' and Ga-Rei Zero, the protagonists (Tomoharu and Kagura, respectively) find their family members too busy with their own lives, and end up forming arguably stronger bonds with a few close friends. Both Tomoharu and Kagura possess great power and use it to fight evil, although Kagura is more aware of her situation compared to Tomoharu, who is ofen baffled by whatever fiasco in which he finds himself.
Ga-Rei is darker by far, but the protagonists in both series must struggle with difficult choices involving whether to fight and whether their friends are worth sacrificing for the greater good.
Each of these series rely heavily on super natural occurrences, action, and difficult decisions. The main character in each series sees little of their family and inherits something like a burden from them. That aside, Ga-Rei Zero is a darker (and better, in my opinion) of Asura Cryin'.
My-Hime
Guided by a star only they can see, a group of maidens known as HiMEs have begun to gather at Fuuka Academy. These young women have been endowed with dangerous supernatural powers that they can use to their heart's content, but there's a price: to wield them, they must put their most important thing on the line. Now, in the midst of school work and friendships, they find themselves caught in the midst of strange conspiracies seemingly related to the terrifying monsters that attack them. Is the power of the HiMEs strong enough to save themselves and the ones they love?

add recBoth of these anime's put their own twist on the mecha genra. The mech may look just like any other giant fighting robot, but they both have their own unique spirital side. Both of these anime's also give ample fan service. So if you want to see some big breasted women and mech that aren't just mindless robots these anime's are for you.
These series are both have a decent amount of mechas, but not the traditional version of them. They also have a decent amount of humor, action, and some sort of occult happenings in them. Finally, they both manage to put in a decent amount of fan service, if that's what you're looking for.

add recBoth anime revolve around supernatural fights, and both have hot, demon (or just demon-like) and fire-related girl which sticks with main protagonist.
Each of these series revolve around super natural battles taking place, often. Beyond that, they both have a bit of fan service and leave some large questions unanswered. Beyond that, it is just a gut feeling that someone that would like one would enjoy the other.

add recLet me start by saying that I felt that Asura Cryin' was rather weak. At times it felt like the plot was just pulled out of a hat and the giant mechs didn't do much for the story. On the other hand, Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion is an excellent show with and intriguing plot and high-paced actions scenes. If you watched Asura Cryin' and enjoyed it, or felt that something was lacking, try Geass. You will not be disappointed.
