Given your fondness for Wolf's Rain (which legit has an incredibly affecting finale), you might find RahXephon interesting. Same period, similar mix of big, rip-your-heart-out-of-your-chest feelings and subtle, complicated character work and worldbuilding. It's good stuff.
As for Death Note, while I am no big fan myself, I do find the director, Tetsuro Araki, pretty interesting and quite talented. I've heard good things about Kurozuka, which is apparently a samurai-horror-action-romance show (yes, really), but Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress might be a safer recommendation. It's a fun time.
Also, just going to throw this one out there, but if you haven't watched Revolutionary Girl Utena yet, the whole thing is legally and freely on YouTube. The very '70s-meets-'90s shoujo art style may take a bit of getting used to, but I guarantee that if you give it a chance, it will blow your mind.
Oh, and I will second Fullmetal Alchemist. I'm more of a fan of the 2003 version and kind of think it's worth seeing that one first to appreciate what Brotherhood does differently better, but either way, it's honestly wonderful. The only shounen adventure series I hold in higher regard is Hunter x Hunter, and that's a tough act to follow (and kind of cheating?).

Definitely Danganronpa, but first I'll explain something...
Danganronpa is actually a videogame, but it's considered an anime because of the anime version. It has an order to play it, but those games are a little bit expensive, so you can also watch a gameplay on YouTube.
Order to watch/play Danganronpa:
-Trigger happy havoc (this is the first game, this is the one which has an anime. You can watch it on AnimeFLV)
-Super Danganronpa 2: Goodbye despair
-Another episode: Ultra Despair Girls
-V3: Killing Harmony
Recommendation: DO NOT TELL ANYONE YOU'RE WATCHING DANGANRONPA, AND DO NOT SEARCH ON INTERNET OR ANY SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT DANGANRONPA, A SIMPLE SPOILER CAN RUIN EVERYTHING

If you liked Death Note I suggest Mirai Nikki (2011), Durarara!! (2010) and Black Butler (2008)

Here’s 3!
Madoka Magica- I don’t wanna spoil too much but it’s a magical girl anime with some twists. Definitely recommend if you like interesting plot twists.
Nichijou- funny silly anime. Not dark or interesting or anything. Literally just random.
Serial experiments Lain- Dark anime. Psychological horror I guess???
