Please check whether the following sentences are okay.

[3] Seems she was angry at you
[4] Looks she was angry at you
[5] It seems like she was angry at you
[6] It looks like she was angry at you
[7] It kind of like she was angry at you.

If there is sentences odd, please pick them up.

Thank you in advance for your teaching.

In correct English, a subject is needed. I recommend only these: It seems/appears [that] she was angry with you. You can have at if you are not angry with a person: He was angry at the mere suggestion.

Son James[1] It seems she was angry at you.
[2] It looks she was angry at you.
[5] It seems like she was angry at you.
[6] It looks like she was angry at you.
These are fine. There is no rule that with should be used when the anger is directed at a person. In fact, the COCA shows that at is more common.
