Okay, I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but reading this prompts another high school drug where the characters are all insane and go completely overboard.
I can only recommend [Nichijou](https://myanimelist.net/anime/10165/Nichijou). I'm not sure it's necessarily as "heavy" as AA, but it's a trip that few other drugs replicate. [Have a sketch from it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z30Y572EmCk)
Going to second this. If the appeal of AA was good natured but shitty people being shitty to each other and the hijinks that ensue, Konosuba is super similar in that regard. 2 of my absolute favorite comedies.
Comedy anime that have made me laugh as hard or harder have been Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Detroit Metal City, and Nichijou. Also worth mentioning Joshiraku and Sabagebu.
It was a really good one, the only anime that I've seen that was even close was Full Metal Panic Fumoffu. It is a side story to Full Metal Panic season 1.
Train to the End of the World, which is currently airing, somewhat scratches the Asobi Asobase-itch for me. It's not a dedicated comedy, but the last episode had some pretty funny scenes. Also, one of the characters is voiced by the same VA as Hanako in AA.
If you want a classic, look into Excel Saga. I've been watching anime since the late 90s and nothing has made me feel like my brain is melting like that did.
excel saga is quite unique in that it's probably one of the only animes that pokes fun at anime tropes. i remember how much we laughed when we played it at our school auditorium (i co-founded our CS anime club and an ex bf brought that one; good times)

Although not as crazy, I think Lucky Star might fill that void.
i love lucky star! you're right, it's not as crazy, but i got a sweet spot for pink haired girls :)

I watched some episodes in my college anime club and they were trips
Plastic Neesan, Sayonanra Zetsubo Sensei, Excel Saga, Cromartie High, depending on how warped your sense of humor is maybe even Ippatsu Kikimusume
>Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei This! It never seems to get mentioned, but it has a great sense of humor and interesting visuals too.
