Martian Successor Nadesico
Alt titles: Nadesico
Meet Akito, a mecha pilot with all the training... of a cook?! Along with airhead Yurika, mecha otaku Hikaru, child genius Ruri, sultry Megumi and more of their cast of misfits, they crew mankind's last hope against the dreaded Jovian Lizards -- the Mobile Battleship Nadesico! Financed by a private company, they not only have to deal with the threatening alien menace, but also Earth’s own military (in which Yurika’s father happens to be an admiral!), who are not pleased to see such a formidable warship outside of their authority...

add recMiisfits who pilot spaceships and mechas, while fighting mysterious aliens/enemies who use AI-controlled ships. If you liked one the other is most likely up your alley , though Vandread is more serious while Nadesico has more humor (so you will most likely end up liking one more then the other, but which one depends on you.)
Many very unique people tossed onto a spaceship, with their fighting mecca's, all to save earth from invading enemies. Tonnes of laughter to be had with each fun filled episode. If you liked one you'd surely like the other.
Kiddy Grade
In the distant future many things have changed. Worlds are colonized and people travel the stars freely. The GOTT (Galactic Organization of Trades and Tarifs) exists to maintain order and peace along the galaxies. Enter two ES members. Eclair and Lumiere. They are sent on missions to keep the universal peace, under the flag of GOTT. But soon they come to realize that there is more going on behind the scenes than they previously imagined...

add recWith less comedy and more action the comparison between Kiddy Grade and Vandread grows thicker. Both series get more story content towards the end. Good sci-fi anime are ahead!

add recStellvia has a very similar art style to Vandread. Even though it wasn't done by Gonzo, it has that feeling. It's another space comedy dealing with ships, mecha and the end of the world.
Full Metal Panic!
- TV (24 eps)
- 2002
Gonzo does it again with this action-packed mecha comedy. She's an ordinary high school girl. He's a counterterror agent assigned to protect her from those who would steal the information locked in her mind. OK, so she's not so normal after all. Armored Slave battles and lovers' spats abound as Sousuke and his comrades try to track down the mysterious Gauln before it's too late.

add recMelty Lancer is another GONZO animation that is really great. It has a lot of twists, interesting aliens and a great story line. The action and animation is top-notch. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who liked Vandread.
