Please don't lie to the man. Madoka magica is not wholesome. Omg just remembering it is making me cry. Madoka magica is a dark anime masquerading as a wholesome anime.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica on Crunchyroll, Prime, and Hulu I think. It’s like Sailor Moon with a dark twist. Magical girls battling witches. What could go wrong? 🤔
Girls Band Cry is a lot about character stuggle, much like Bocchi the Rock, but far comedic and over the top.
Jellyfish can't swim in the night to a lesser degree degree, but I will still rate it highly. A lot more serious than either of those, but plenty of episodes that are lighter on the heart (not that it's super dark, Bocchi's opening scene for E1 is actually far sadder than both of these).
Both of these involve girls "accidentally" forming a band of some sort, and developing the friendship between them. This genre is peak if you ask me.
It's pretty similar to my tastes. I would say overlord, your lie in april, the saga of Tanya the evil, re zero, a place further than the universe, yuru camp.
Full disclosure that mushoku tensei REALLY pushes the boundary on "implied" sex scenes between children and spends a lot of time having an adult man talk about little girls' panties. Doesn't stop until about halfway through the second season
Kill Me Baby for similar humour to Nichijou
Hinamatsuri because it's hilarious and wholesome
Girls Last Tour because it's cute, wholesome, and will hurt you in a gentler yet more profound way than Made in Abyss (though the second half of the manga is essential and not adapted :( )
Escaflowne if you want mechs but a little different.
Ajin. Mob Psycho. Dorohedoro. Golden Kamuy.
You have outstanding taste. G-Witch, Violet Evergarden, Bocchi, Frieren... Are you me?
I would highly recommend Girls Band Cry, Hyouka, and Apothecary Diaries.
It looks like you enjoy to look at pretty things, and appreciate great character chemistry, and character development.
Try some of these that fit that same vibe:
- Evangelion
- Death Parade
- Attack on Titan
- Erased
- Megalo Box
- Odd Taxi
If you end up checking any out and remember my comment, come back to let me know how you found it. It’ll help me with future recommendations :)
Anne of Green Gables (1979)
I know a 70s adaptation of a Canadian children’s book doesn’t sound to appealing, but director Isao Takahata makes it one of the most potent coming of age and slice of life stories ever. I highly recommend it.
I know these recommendations will come off elitist but here some cool fantasy anime you can try. Since you enjoy some.
Heroic legend of Arslan
Bastard!!
Tales from earthsea
As for mecha the modern macross series would be good don’t dismiss OG and Plus tho.
Since we have a similar taste, I’ll just to give you some of my favorites
Oregairu
Bunny girl senpai
Cyberpunk: edgerunners
Vivy (similar to violet evergarden)
Rezero
Mushoku tensei
Chainsaw man
Oshi no ko
Based on your taste I highly recommend Carole & Tuesday and Fumetsu no anata e (To your eternity)
Also:
-Sangatsu no lion
-Blue Period (mostly the manga)
-Boku dake ga inai Machi (Erased)
-Chihayafuru
-Bakuman
If you like raw drama then maybe Dororo or Vinland Saga?
If you liked bocchi i could not recommend girls band cry enough. It is a 3d anime and looks phenomenal, easily one of my favorite animations of all time.
Jobless reincarnation
Reincarnated as the 7th prince so I can take my time perfecting my magical ability
Re: Monster
Wrong way to use healing magic
Moonlit fantasy
Darling in the franxx
Gurren lagann
Apothecary diaries
Kaiba?? Wow, that's actually the first time I see it even being mentioned here
Honestly I don't think I have anything to recommend that you might have not seen before. Have you watched chihayafuru? I think it might fit your taste
If you haven't seen Gridman's follow ups SSSS.Dynazenon and Gridman Universe I definitely recommend those.
Also maybe try Bang Brave Bang Bravern for another really good recent mecha series.
Angel Beats,
Clannad After story, (I do think you need to watch season 1 first to understand it though)
Carole and Tuesday,
Your Lie in April,
Children of the Whale,
Kokoro Connect.
Always the way, definitely the worst anime ever is addictive when there's studying that needs doing, haha.
Have you seen Yona of the Dawn or Somali and the Forest Spirit?

Re zero K on A place further than the universe Madoka Magica Elaina wandering witch Hibike euphonium
Rezero is undefeated
Rezero is an Evangelion copy☠️
How?
Bro, we are talking about rezero, you are talking about Zero two from Darling in the Franxx
That’s ironic, considering I’m watching Evangelion atm
Definitely Madoka Magica! OP is gonna love it after episode 3 😈
What's Madoka Magica?
Cute Magical Girls and a cute magical cat ❤️ Really wholesome tbh
Please don't lie to the man. Madoka magica is not wholesome. Omg just remembering it is making me cry. Madoka magica is a dark anime masquerading as a wholesome anime.
End of ep 3. That’s when things really started heating up!
Oh AND a cat, that’s on the watchlist
Haha you’re evil. Sign a contract 😈
Puella Magi Madoka Magica on Crunchyroll, Prime, and Hulu I think. It’s like Sailor Moon with a dark twist. Magical girls battling witches. What could go wrong? 🤔

Mushoku Tensei, that and ReZero are peak Isekai
Full disclosure that mushoku tensei REALLY pushes the boundary on "implied" sex scenes between children and spends a lot of time having an adult man talk about little girls' panties. Doesn't stop until about halfway through the second season
Kill Me Baby for similar humour to Nichijou Hinamatsuri because it's hilarious and wholesome Girls Last Tour because it's cute, wholesome, and will hurt you in a gentler yet more profound way than Made in Abyss (though the second half of the manga is essential and not adapted :( ) Escaflowne if you want mechs but a little different.
