Hitsugi no Chaika

aka girls with guns.
The genre that isn't.

As seen on fakemorisummer.wordpress.com/2021/04/01/militarymoe-recommendations/ minus the grayzone ones.

A non-curated roster of High Fantasy works.

High Fantasy is a subgenre of Fantasy focusing on entirely original worlds and histories, as opposed to Low Fantasy, where the magical and/or supernatural instead intrude upon the Earth that we know. Note that the term "High" does not mean this subgenre is of inherently greater quality than the other, though of course many have identified such a coincidental trend.

It is a common misconception that High Fantasy and Low Fantasy instead refer to the level to which magic and all it entails are integrated into the world, with those where said elements are abundant being "High" and if rare then "Low." This is, however, completely incorrect, as the distinction is actually in how removed the world is from our own.

There is, naturally, a spectrum between the subgenres, rather than a clear-cut line. Isekai, for instance, is somewhere in the middle, as though works of that genre typically involve a completely fictional setting, the real world is still relevant. For that reason, no Isekai appear on this list, thankfully.

Because of the popularity of what was mentioned above, High Fantasy is in something of a state of decline. Note that the majority of entries shown are from before the turn of the century. Care has been taken, however, to include more recent examples, few though there are.

Sequels, remakes, spinoffs and the like are omitted for brevity.

These are all romance anime from the shounen demographic. These are all anime I’ve enjoyed one way or another. Since this is the shounen demographic, there’s a lot of fan service and ecchi shows in here. I’m not a huge fan of that but there are some shows I liked regardless. I hope you find something new to watch!

There is also a NSFW series but I'm not linking that here

This makes it easier to just throw a link at people and let them pick what they want from a list opposed to cultivating one every time someone asks me for a recc. Tried to have a bit of everything in here.

Anime series that covers all of its original source they're based on, with some notes.

Here is a list of anime that are not the best ones, but can definitively kill some time.



OBS: Some shows are really shitty but can be quite enjoable.

So this stack is not intended to offend anyone, it's a list made from my observations in the community about some works that maybe at some point were popular or had their moments of fame but nowadays very few people talk about.

Tired of last episodes being an advertisement to read the source, or left waiting for next seasons that won't come? This list includes anime originals, complete adaptations and original endings that tell a full, conclusive story.

Short anime ver (less than 30 episodes from start to finish).

Long anime version: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/3338

These are main characters that have blue hair and blue eyes, no transformation, no eye change, no hair change.

The following should be included in at least each series:

- Romance/Hint of Romance
- Adventure
- MC is Female

Because we all need representation

Some of these are questionable, like Suisei no Gargantia can be argued to be fully sci-fi, but there is a feel to it that makes me include it, along with organic and archaic elements that are woven together in a way that makes this appear more fantastical than your average sci-fi. Similarly, Gankutsuou is sci-fi with advanced technology, but it's futuristic imagery is conceptualized to cohere with the elegant 19th century setting of Dumas' novel. I'm also avoiding the inclusion of more than one entry per series, so if season 1 is on here, then season 2 likely fits just as much.

Titles that I might add:

Cute girls (often doing cute things) wearing military gear, using military weaponry, and/or participating in the military.
