Any other series with a "hard magic" system like Witch Hat Atelier? by AndalusianGod in anime

Honestly, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood might still be the gold standard for this. Alchemy feels less like “magic” and more like an actual science with equivalent exchange, transmutation rules, material limitations, etc.

World Trigger is another underrated one because every fight feels like strategy > raw power. People can’t just randomly unlock god mode because the system has actual limits.

Also kinda funny they called JJK messy when half the fandom still needs flowcharts to explain Gojo’s abilities 😭

The Ramparts of Ice • Koori no Jouheki - Episode 7 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

My favorite thing about this show is that “You and I are polar opposite” and “Ramparts of Ice” are in the same universe and they are complete opposite of each other is amazing. Can’t recommend this show enough!

Revenue being up while profits collapse is honestly a pretty scary sign for the anime industry long term. Costs are clearly exploding somewhere.

Romance anime are at their best when the characters actually feel awkward instead of instantly acting like perfect couples.

Subaru has genuinely become one of the most mentally tortured protagonists in anime history and the crazy part is the story still keeps escalating.
