@@FutureShawn0058 Sadly, I would rather forget Mushoku Tensei despite how beautifully animated it is, I just can't get behind the story and characters. Plus Mushoku Tensei is isekai/ crossworlds fantasy and the three animes mentioned fall more into the high fantasy/ fairy tale fantasy which I think a lot of people are excited about.

Yeah she uses hash marks to create a sense of shading and that is really hard to translate into an anime. I’m glad they decided to compromise on a “sketchy” artstyle instead of making it entirely CGI *looks at Berserk 2016 anime

It's a fairly dark story with some bright spots, but overall it's a story mixed with whimsy and terror. It's a coming of age story about disillusionment and love.
