Perfect Blue, Aoi Bungaku, Texhnolyze (just for you spazer) and Grave of the Fireflies are other ones with sensible and reliable grim and/or dark plot. Edit: This Cheep. Wao. | ||

It seems manga, novel or game all provide better dark works than anime. It's not good because it's not popular? This means things are good when they're popular? I love justin bieber too real good artist | ||

It seems manga, novel or game all provide better dark works than anime. It depens how strictly we define dark... But for example, one could say that Madoka isn't exactly your typical light atmosphere anime. But on the other hand, it isn't "all dark". Without clear definitions of light/dark, I'd probably rate most gundam I've seen as neutral. I'd probably rate most gundams I've seen as neutral. Gantz, madoka are probably darkish Highschool dxd light -_- I believe I enjoy more "more mature anime". That doesn't mean that I can't enjoy some comedy or light ones. The only genre I can't stand are harem. Not enough story content in anime like Highschool DxD XD. Beside, if I were into that sort of thing, I fail to see why I should watch "tease" (aka Harem - girls with little to no clothes). I'll just go all-in with porn or hentai (no clothes). | ||

Not if the show in question that is most likely designed to be watched by 13 to 16 year olds, because everything that is 16+ is hentai obviously, has a very mind-challenging plot that makes you question your life so far! | ||

But what always gets me are people who seem to think that something must be grimdark in order to be good. Or even worse, its good if its grimdark (for example, people who think SnK is the greatest thing ever becaues its 'grimdark'). | ||

being that no matter what they did, the cycle still had them being fucked, and Madoka's sacrifice was in vain. | ||
