Horimiya is one of my absolute faves.
Your Lie in April is also very good and features some great music.
Maybe could try A Lull in the Sea? Is much more drama focused, but the story is very fantastical and the art superb.
Anohana as well. Very drama focused like A Lull in the Sea.
And my all-time GOAT is Clannad After Story! It would require you to watch Clannad which is based on a VN and kind of explores setting up all these relationships and friendships with the MC. There is only one “route” the story is taking, though, and that’s with Nagisa. It’s a lot of character growth and friendship building, and then After Story follows Tomoya and Nagisa into post-high school, young adult life before absolutely wrecking you. Touches on some heavy hitting, close-to-home themes that a lot of shows don’t.

I'm really enjoying Kimi to Koete Koi Ni Naru from this season. Unironically could crack my top10 after evaluation

I've been loving it as well, probably my favorite anime of the year.
