Synopsis:

When Haruka, Yuu and their friends decided to go ghost hunting, they had no idea the "ghosts" they'd find would turn their lives upside down. Black-clad and wielding quantum powers, these knights from the future are after an artifact of immense power that they hope will save their dimension from destruction: the Dragon Torque; and Haruka seems to be the key. As factions within the knights violently disagree on how to proceed, Haruka and the gang are caught up in a fight with the Shangri La, in an existential battle where fates of entire universes are decided.

Steins;Gate

Steins;Gate

The eccentric mad scientist Okabe, his childhood friend Mayuri, and the otaku hacker Daru have banded together to form the Future Gadget Research Laboratory, and spend their days in a ramshackle laboratory hanging out and occasionally attempting to invent incredible futuristic gadgets. However, their claymore is a hydrator and their hair dryer flips breakers, and the only invention that’s even remotely interesting is their Phone Microwave, which transforms bananas into oozing green gel. But when an experiment goes awry the gang discovers that the Phone Microwave can also send text messages to the past. And what's more, the words they send can affect the flow of time and have unforeseen, far-reaching consequences - consequences that Okabe may not be able to handle...

Both of these titles have a strong base in science and if you like Science Fiction that uses a lot of real science then you may enjoy both titles. One thing I will say is that Noein has a very unique animation style, but both seem to have a good story/plot.

Both have a decent sized cast, with a timetravel-esque plotline, but the real reason i'd reccomend these two is the fact that it mixes real scientific theory with fiction, while at the same time focusing on the relationships between the cast of characters.

DempseyROLL

Steins;Gate and Noein both deal with time travel and alternate universes.  I highly reccomend both if you enjoy this variety of science fiction.

Eureka Seven

Eureka Seven

Like most boys his age, the young Renton thinks of nothing but reffing – riding trapar waves on a board – and idolizes Holland, the leader of the renegade group of reffers named Gekko State. As an orphan of a famous hero, he lives a boring life with his grandfather until the beautiful Eureka crashes, literally, into his life. Now, with the help of his newfound friend and crush, Renton finds himself living amongst the crew of Gekko State. The errands are hard and the bullying is fierce, but with Eureka by his side, Renton just might find the courage to tough it out and even save the world!

Noein and E7 remind me a lot of each other. Not only do both have a good plot involving a bit of futuristic science, but the mix of emotions ranging from sadness and despair to hope and love make these two a great recommendation for each other.

Brank

Both Eureka Seven and Noein have confusing stories where you don't understand a lot until the very end. Also, the main characters have similar complex feelings. The story in these two anime is mostly similar because if there are no battles, it's the sentimental life of the main character that becomes the main plot. If you liked one, you will certainly love the other.

Fafner

Fafner

"Are you there?" This is the question that the aliens always demand before they attack. The quiet island of Tatsumiyajima is secretly the last line of defense against mysterious invaders. In a quiet and rustic villiage, children were raised without any knowlege that they were born to pilot the Fafnirs, giant robotic war machines of terrible powers that are the only thing that can defend all they hold dear.These children's struggles will be the only thing that can hold off an enemy that attacks both our bodies and our sense of identity...

Noein and Fafner have complex stories in which the characters are well developed. In both anime the characters need to work through their hardships from facing foes, and through the psychological damage from their pasts. Because of these aspects together, Fafner and Noein should appeal to the same viewers.

holyzac

Both animes are very similiar in terms of their complexness. Although Noein doesnt really have any giant robots, they both still walk down the path of the Technology element where lots of technology is involved. Futuristic animes are very intresting to watch so if you watch only one of them, make sure you watch the other!

From the New World

From the New World

One thousand years from now, humanity live pastoral lives aided by psychokinetic powers and the subservient Monster Rats. Saki Watanabe has just come of age, and her power has been reined in through meditation and hypnosis. She joins the Unified Class, where she will learn about her power and the world around her; yet so much of the truth is kept hidden. Her friends Shun, Mamoru, Satoru, and Maria share in her curiosity, and decide to go out of their way to seek the truth. But will the secrets of the past and present turn out to be things that Saki really wants to know?

In both these sci-fi shows, a group of children learn the dark truth about their world and have to deal with it as best as they can.

The two series also contain some unique visual aspects and their stories rely heavily on the psychology of the characters.

From the New World starts out with a bunch of kids getting involved in things that are way over their heads. The beginning of Noein has a similar situation, feel and pace. These are two well-animated, interesting shows that I think would appeal to most sci-fi fans.

Blast of Tempest

Blast of Tempest

Hakaze, princess of the Kusaribe mage clan, has been betrayed and marooned on an island by her own people. They seek to revive the Tree of Exodus, an incomprehensibly powerful entity of alien origin, to save the world from the tyranny of its antithesis: the Tree of Genesis that powers their magic. Hakaze, however, believes their efforts put humanity in jeopardy; and with her power limited, she can only reach out to the world to beg for aid. Her call reaches Mahiro Fuwa, a young man grieving the mysterious death of his sister, Aika. He and his friend Yoshino agree to help - on the condition that Hakaze track down Aika's killer with her magic. The deal is made, and the battle that will determine civilization's fate is begun: but who will play the part of its villain, and who its savior?

Both of these anime deal with time travel, confusing powers with convoluted storylines, and are set in contemporary worlds that are in danger of being destroyed. 

They also are both very similar in how the dramatic and comedic elements of their stories are told.  And are scored with music that sounds unique and hauntingly beautiful.

I would say that Noein is the better anime out of the two, because while both are extremely convoluted, Blast of Tempest gets pretty rushed in the third act and unravels quite a bit.  In terms of animation Blast of Tempest is a lot cleaner and flows better with a better use of color (I'm sure uses more computer animation techniques).  Noein seems to have more of a hand drawn look (especially during action), which isn't bad, but it can be a little bit distracting and take me out of the story a bit.
