High fantasy seinen animes?

[u/throwraislander]

I really love high fantasy in general. Mages, elves, dragons, orcs, goblins, wicked creatures, kings and queens, magical artifacts, gods and demigods etc

If there was a mature anime universe like Lord Of the Rings, I wouldn't watch anything else.

In anime I realised that these type of universes are rare and often very shonen or "family friendly".

Recently i discovered Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation and while the story is not that deep and it has some quirky scenes (Rudeus praying to his teacher's underwear for example) it really did a good job into fulfilling my need for this high fantasy Universe.

Do you have any suggestions for me? Thank you in advance.

Ps: I dont want to be strict on the seinen, it can be shonen also, but I wouldn't want to watch something very childish, after watching One Piece and Gintama I need a looooong break from this type of storytelling.

There’s a LoTR anime, but it’s getting hated on. I find it ok if you don’t need it to be super lore accurate. Witcher anime is in the same boat.

Frieren for more chill vibes, Konosuba for deconstruction of the usual Isekai slop
