Kiba
Synopsis:
Have you ever been sick and tired of the world we live in? So much, that you've tried any means possible to escape it? Zed shares the same feelings as we all do. In the smog ridden, and sunless world of Calm, people manage to scrape by on the bare minimum. Fed up with living in this hellhole, Zed looks for an outlet to another world. Beating down and smashing every door in his sight, he hopes that if he believes strong enough, his gateway will open -- open to a place beyond his imagination, and where his life will have meaning. After finally being transported to another world full of nature and endless battles, Zed soon comes to realize that his life of purpose has just begun.

add recBoth Mar and Kiba are fantastic and very similar in a way. Both have a main character looking to escape their own world to another where their life will have purpose. If you love shows with tons of magic using and awesome battles, definitely check out both of these.
In Mar and in Kiba the main characters have been dropped onto another world, and they have to fight to save the new world and are forced to have many battles along the way.
In both anime, the people can call something with a tool to get assistance in battle.
Mar is a bit more funny while Kiba is a bit more serious and the personality of the heroes is completely different, but if you like one of them, you can give the other a try.
In both Mar and kiba the main character goes to another world where he becomes very powerfull and helps others out. The battles are very similar too. In both there is this kind of "magic" stuff taking place in the battles.

add recKiba and Shaman King are about people that use spirits to aid them and make them strong in battles. If you liked one of these anime for the characters that train to be the best in battle, the newfound friends that would sacrifice themselves for one another, and the amazing magic and superpowers, you would really like the other.
Both series are about people who work toward their goal while enduring trails that test their powers and have proplems with their families and friends along the way

add recTU is a bit more funny than Kiba, but they have quite a bit in common. In both animes the main characters have to fight a lot of battles and they can call unnatural powers.
While they grow stronger as time passes, both of their goals are to save the world.
A young boy who discovers a great power and must deal with a bunch of dangerous enemies.
Different story, same style.

add recBoth Kiba and El Hazard have a main character that ends up in a parallel world and struggles to survive. Both heroes acquire powers and abilities that they couldn't have in their home worlds.
El-Hazard tends to be funnier, though the story itself gives the same impression as Kiba.
