I'll Make a Small List:

Elfen Lied (Lucy + Vectors = OVERKILL)
Azamanga Daioh (Very Random and Funny)
Lucky Star (EVEN More Random then Azamanga Daioh)
Death Note (1st Arc, least i only liked the 1st arc)
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Very Funny. Can't wait tell Season 2)
Mahou Sensei Negima (Very Funny)
Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan (Do i need to say why)
Grenadier (Decent Show but Ending Sucked)
Haibane Renmeni (Shockingly it wasn't that bad. Decent Series)
Blood + (I think it is good. Subbed Verion Only. The Dubbed Version was very badly done.)
Chobits (Funny Show so far as i have seen.)

Heh, everyone totally ignores the original post and just posts all the things they've ever watched....

Anyway, I'll answer your question. You seem to be looking for smart and mature anime that happen to be a bit bloody. May I introduce you to both Monster and Baccano!.

Monster, ranked #9 overall
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=3750

Baccano!, ranked #26 overall http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=7492

I won't reiterate the descriptions, except to say that the Baccano! description leaves a lot to be desired.

I honestly believe that you will like both Baccano and Monster if you liked Death Note and Code Geass.

Everything everyone else mentioned is definately not what your looking for, except for possibly Blood+.

Monster is a good anime, so is Great Teacher Onizuka and Get Backers...
And all the anime the others have recommended ;)

Ooh! I've always wanted to see if someone could make a good show based of off Mahjong (since I play so much of it). Now I just have to wait for them to do "mancala" xD. If someone can make a mancala-based anime (or any other form of TV, for that matter) actually good enough to keep me interested throughout the whole thing, I will be amazed and happy.
