Due to the Gastrea virus' intervention, the Cursed Children could only be female. Civil Securities are formed to specialize fighting against Gastrea, operating with the pair of an Initiator, who are cursed children, and a Promoter, serving to lead the cursed children.

got the same feeling to it, a non normal guy who has one girl that is always by his side and see as a friend and protector and she strongly admires the male lead and is open about it which makes him uncomfortable.

Attack on Titan

Attack on Titan

Over a century ago, mankind was devoured by giant beings of unknown intelligence and origin known as Titans – creatures that eat humans alive indiscriminately and for no apparent reason. The remaining population has managed to survive the last hundred years only by building a multi-walled city capable of keeping the Titans at bay, training military recruits to patrol the perimeter and gather intelligence about their mysterious foe. Eren and Mikasa have lived a relatively peaceful life behind the city's walls, but when a massive Titan appears, smashing the outer barrier and unleashing a wave of terror, their lives are brutally changed forever...

They are both adventure based anime, with a hero type of main character. I would describe Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? as SAO meets Attack on Titan. Enjoy!

This anime goes more into fights, especially against titan, but maybe you should give it a look if you like adventure and see maybe a bit more actions besides of love and adventurer stories ^^

Video game elements with a strong male lead and a mostly female support cast set in a magical world with underaged heroes leading the way and atypical amenities like guilds and adventure parties.

Both series feature a fantasy RPG-like world, with loads of awesome magic and different creatures. They're both interesting series, so if you like one, you might want to check the other one out.

Epimondas Epimondas says...

The way the main character acts so bashful especially around girls or intimate situations is similar.  Both are fantasies with a strong element but not an overwhelming element of magic (if Danmach was, then Aiz would not exist). Both characters have a sense of mystery about their background and where they came from or who or what they are relative to the world they inhabit though for Danmachi (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon), it is more his family than him per say, though at the same time, no one but him really knows much about his background so effectively it is quite similar for those around him.  Both characters are literally on a fast track to recognition for their incredible ablities and charm.  Both have at least one strong male ally and several strong female friends.  Both have lots of well place uses of exceptional displays of emotion especially bashfulness.  Both main characters are first seen looking weak and pathetic only to turn that around nearly over night which in a way was the reason they did improve.  Both main characters have many friends or allies who encourage them to keep improving or to accept their own accolades as deserved and proof of their own remarkable skills.  Both have elements of a harem theme though this is emphasized a tad more strongly in Utawarerumono.

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic

In a sand-swept land of caravans, brigands and adventurers, legends tell of the ominous dungeon towers that suddenly appeared 14 years ago. It's said that by clearing one of these prisons, you can obtain treasure beyond your wildest dreams, and even form a contract with magical genies of immense power - assuming you make it out alive. In this world, Alibaba is a young rogue who wants nothing more than to get rich by clearing all of the world's dungeons, starting with the nearby tower Amon; Aladdin is a curious young boy with a magical flute and a hidden ability; and Morgiana is a slave who can't escape her chains. As their fates intertwine, the three find themselves wandering the land, battling powerful enemies, and taking a stand against powerful forces that seek to corrupt the weak and innocent.

Both magical world/battle anime with cute girls and a human protagonist, both dealing with friendship themes and having a lot of comedic moments.

Noragami

Noragami

Yato, the supposed God of Calamity, is so far down on the Shinto totem pole that he doesn't even have any followers or a shrine to call his own and has to do odd jobs to make ends meet. Worst of all, his aloof and somewhat goofy personality has just cost him his newest partner and best holy weapon. When the down-on-his-luck Yato is saved by an unfortunate soul called Hiyori, he's forced to take on a brand new job - to turn her back into a human and fix her supernatural out-of-body experiences! Can Yato, a Regalia-less, miserly minor god, even attempt such a tall order? And is there more to him than his ridiculousness lets on?
