Manga: MeruPuri: Märchen☆Prince
The 2 most popular works by Matsuri Hino. Both shoujo manga which have pretty art, romance, fantasy/magic/supernatural, a pair of hot siblings/twins, and the average female lead. MeruPuri is more light-hearted and lovey-dovey than VK, and the latter has drama, violence, and a wider cast of characters, but if you liked one, you'll probably enjoy the other as well.

Manga: Midnight Secretary
If you liked Vampire knight I think you will like Midnight secretary too. Both are about vampires and a pretty heroine who falls in love with one. And both mangas gave me the same shivery feeling if you know what I mean.

Manga: Black Bird
Both manga have a strong heroine that needs someone to rely on every now and then. The heroine has a connection with the guy, who by the way, is another creature, but she cannot remember. She falls in love with him, unsure of his feelings in the beginning, and they slowly begin to uncover the truth about the past and what is going on around them.

Manga: Model
Both are about vampires and a human girl, obviously, but it doesn't just end there. The heroines of each story are very strong and tend to do things on their own. Both get involved with vampires, and fall in love with one, while another one loves her. In the beginning of each story, the situation may seem a bit complicated, but as the series progresses, more secrets are revealed and more questions are raised. Nothing is as it first seems. Both have a bit of a dark mood to it every once in awhile, but they are very great reads!

Manga: Shinshi Doumei Cross
Both have an adopted female protagonist, kuudere girls, white-haired people, and a bishounen whose name is Senri. <br/> Both are set in a school for rich or special people (in VK there’s the Night Class/Day Class division, while in SDC there are 3 different power levels). <br/> In both there’s a VIP guy who’s basically the king of the school (and who’s adored by the female protagonist): Kaname, a pure blood, in VK, and Shizumasa/Takanari, the Emperor, in SDC. <br/> Plus: the school uniforms are initially similar (the SDC ones change later): black&white with red ribbon/tie; the word “Cross”: the school’s and female protagonist’s name  read more

Manga: Torikago Syndrome
Both manga are set in a boarding school, with a "King" figure who controls the school from behind the scenes. The main characters are both orphans, a little naive, and too kind. There are secrets in the main characters' pasts that explain why they are attending their respective schools under the protection of a guardian. The artwork in both manga are very beautiful.

Manga: Crepuscule
Two stories about the Vampires. In both they are powerfull, but try to not hurt any human. There is some romance in it / action and a bit mistery. 
reportRecommended by Shadake
Manga: Blood+
If you enjoyed the Vampire Knight Manga, I would recommend the Blood + Anime. Blood suckers, hunters, war, a romantic triangle, obsession, memory loss, pain, tragic twins, sacrifice, death, a small hint of "school life"... it is all there. They are so very similar, It is scary. I would have to say that Blood + can be a lot more intense though. 
reportRecommended by CherryBl0550m
Manga: Chocolate Vampire
The similarities are numerous. Vampires and humans attending school together, a heroine with confused memories of the past, a vampire who loves and protects the heroine... I'd say that the lore for Vampire Knight is more fleshed out, though this may be due to the fact that I've read fewer chapters of Chocolate Vampire to date.

Manga: Prince of the Night
If you liked Vampire Knight try Prince of the Night, it is relatively new in translations with only 5 chapters out as I write this, so I am not sure what the mystery behind the Prince is, but when I read it, it reminded me a bit of Vampire Knight. We have a young innocent girl who stumbles into a castle and meets a mysterious prince who will not let her return to her own world. While it is funnier and lighter than Vampire Knight, I think that fans of the other series will appreciate the unusual Gothic setting  read more

Manga: Saiunkoku Monogatari
Shoujo manga of medium-longish length, in which it seems no one is who or what they first appear to be. If you like lots of characters and surprises you might like them, but be warned, the similarities stop there. 
reportRecommended by Sundog
Manga: Kuro Bara Alice
Both are about vampires and seem to be set a part of modern times. The vampires in Kuro Bara Alice are very unique and faced with much more interesting problems. I have never seen this kind of "take" on vampires before and was pleasantly surprised. Vampire Knight more of less follows a tradiitional path but is still very enjoyable.

Manga: Kuraku Naru made Matenai
Both include vampires and romance, the first two chapters for Kuraku Naru made Matenai.

Manga: Nobody Knows
Psychological suspense thrillers with similar themes and great art and both have a sense of mystery to the story. Vampire Knight is a Japanese shoujo though while Nobody Knows is a manhwa, the settings and such are pretty different and Nobody Knows is more psychological and more scary. They have art that is really good at setting the mood. Both stories are pretty complex and you have to read them carefully and then read parts again because of flashbacks etc, so they are more complex story wise than the average shoujo.

Manga: Yorugata Aijin Senmonten Blood Hound DX
Both are based around spooky gothic themed stories especially on vampires and romance as well as also, lot of really nicely drawn characters and art too.

Manga: Kiniro no Corda
The plots of these manga are quite different, but I can name some similarities. In both manga, the girl is the protagonist, surrounded by handsome/cute/pretty boys at a prestigious school. There are two types of students. One class would wear a white uniform (in VK, its the night class, in LCO its the music department), and the other class would wear a grey/black uniform (in VK its the day class, in LCO, its the general studies). Both are shoujo fiction (VK is vampires and LCO has fairies).

Manga: Yoru ni mo Makezu!
Both are set in a school which has day classes for humans and night classes for vampires/demons. They're totally different for mood, seriousness, and lenght, but in both we have: - The average main girl who also has a brother (Yuki/Niko). - The cold, serious, handsome vampire/demon guy (Zero/Ren). - A childish, long-haired school principal who's also the father of one of the protagonists (Kaien Cross/Chairman).

Manga: Penguin☆Brothers
The Main charachters are really similar, the way that Isshiki and Zero are both really emotionless, have a dark past and they secretly love the main girl character; Hina and Yuuki respectively and that the other main character ; Nishizaki and Kaname, also harbour feelings for Hina and Yuuki, although the don't show it as obviously. And, Koshiba is so like Ichijo. I also think the Black/White thing of Penguin brothers is like the Night/Day class of Vampire knight.

Manga: Toraware no Minoue

Manga: Dengeki Daisy
The 2 manga are quite different but when I read dengeki daisy it makes me remember how Kaname told Zero to protect Yuki just like Teru's brother told Kurosaki to take care of her and how they can't be together. Although VK has vampires and everything you kinda get the same feeling. If you like one of them you might like the other one

Manga: Barajou no Kiss
Vampire Knight & Barajou no Kiss both have a sub-focus in knight-esque bishounen and reverse harem. Where Barajou no Kiss has little to do with "vampires" (though the title of vampire does appear in regards to one character), it does focus heavily on supernatural elements.

Both are of the same genre- comedy, shoujo, romance, and a bit of fantasy. Vampire Knight deals with vampires, while Fruits Basket deals with the chinese zodiac (and people turning into their animal). Difference being is that VK has a lot more action, while FB has a lighter "slice of life" feeling. But both have a parts of tragedy to it as well. Another may be that VK is definitely a love triangle, whereas Fruits basket only appears as one.

Manga: Noblesse
This is probably the best recommendation I can make for Noblesse at the moment, but by no means is it the best recommendation I can make for Vampire Knight. To be blunt, Vampire Knight is a shoujo-Noblesse (and likewise, Noblesse is a shounen-Vampire Knight). Noblesse is like Vampire Knight taken to the extreme (without romance). Regardless, at the core of their stories, they're essentially the same. In both Noblesse and Vampire Knight, there are two central "factions" that are co-operating with each other, but seeking to overthrow each other at the same time. In Vampire Knight, this is the Hunter's Association and the Senior Council  read more
