 If you liked Fullmetal Alchemist |  ...then you might like Baccano! |
Alchemy seems to play a role in a different twist. both shows have addicting characters.
Similar themes, such as alchemy, and the time era. Though the style it's shown in is quite different, as well as FMA having a main character (as opposed to Baccano), they're still similar in many ways. Both having a wide range of characters, violence, and nicely animated action.
First of all, both is about alchemy and the idea of finding the philosophers stone. Baccano! ist just as much fun and as thrilling as Full Metal Alchemist.
Both have alchemy, homunculi, immortals, and violence.

Similar colorful cast of characters and comedic fun FMA has. Also has a very interesting plot and voice overs. Oh? and Did I forget to tell you that Baccano has alchemists too?

Baccano! is a very intense anime when it comes down to the basic story line as FMA, both are about alchemy and what power can do to human's with greed in their hearts.

Both of these series are set around the early 1900's. The practice of alchemy is within them both, however one more so than the other (Fullmetal Alchemist). Also the idealogy of immortality is brought up quite a bit in both. They may not be eerily similar, but they do have a similarity in overall feeling.

Both series are set in the same time period and deals with some of the same themes.
They both involve alchemy and homunculi, and have fighting scenes. Both animes have humor in it, and are set in similar time periods. They share many themes as well, so if you enjoy supernatural things and characters with strong individual personalities, you'll enjoy it!
