Prima Doll

All anime connected with Key, Tactics, and Jun Maeda, only excluding One: Kagayaku Kisetsu e - True Stories, which is a hentai.

My personal recommendations for amazing "SOL" anime that have subtle/intensive feels and deep themes/ideas.

Anime in the CGDCT genre that subverts traditional expectations of the genre as the pure formula of a show about the plotless everyday life of cute teen girls.

This is a stack of Anime which each have a Main Cast of Only 5 Females, no more, no less, and no males will be in these Main Casts. (Creatures don't count).

If you like the types of shows featured in this stack, feel free to check out this stack series: Comedic All Female Cast/CGDCT Shows, as it might contain more anime you would like.

This stack will only contain the first season of each series.

This stack is intended for non-shoujo or josei shows that have a female protagonist while avoiding the traditional objectification, sexualization, or other possible issues in portraying female characters in male or gender-neutral shows. It may still be somewhat problematic or not fit the ideal female representation, but at least it's not related to ecchi or waifu bait things.

I also tried to bypass all-female shows whenever possible, since most of them are objectified and they would be enough for 2-3 more separate lists.

Key is a Japanese visual novel studio known for making dramatic and plot-oriented titles. It was formed on July 21, 1998, as a brand under the publisher Visual Arts, and is located in Kita, Osaka.

Some of the most popular anime by them are Clannad, Angel Beats and Charlotte.

I watched all of these anime during Summer 2022

Top anime (in my opinion)

New in Summer 2022:
Top 1 KUMICHOU MUSUME TO SEWAGAKARI, the story is about a yakuza gang member who is ordered by his boss to look after his boss's daughter, the plot is good, cool, slice of life, there are funny and sad things too
Top 2 ISEKAI YAKKYOKU is also a good story, the MC is from the modern world who dies in his sleep and then gets reincarnated into an Isekai, well the storyline is very typical of Isekai but I think it is interesting and unique because it is related to drugs, illnesses and the MC opens a pharmacy in another world and makes various kinds of medicines , it is discussed regarding tuberculosis, bubonic plague, influenza. Even though the theme is isekai historical magic, the situations and responses of the people are similar to real life situations, especially during the bubonic plague arc
Top 3 KAMI KUZU IDOL is also interesting, it's a funny story about a male idol but he doesn't intend to be an idol, he's too lazy, suddenly you can see the ghost of a female idol who is cheerful and enthusiastic, the ghost can enter the boy's body, so the guy's personality changes

Sequel:
SHADOWS HOUSE is interesting in the second part, from the first part it is also unique because the story is about life in a shadow house without a face who lives with a living doll (as the face), starting to reveal a mystery and the dark side that is in that house, the opening is also the best, it fits really well. Same as the anime story

Completed Series:
KAKEGURUI TWIN even though it only aired this season only because Netflix adapted it so the story about gambling at school immediately ended, it's a shame the ending is left hanging, the live action has come out first, the live action storyline is the same as the anime n it's more complete because there is a continuation of the ending of the anime

Movie:
CONAN MOVIE 25 about Furuya Rei's past and his friends who were in the police

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating

All the anime in this stack have at least one visual novel adaptation (be it official or unofficial), sequel/prequel, or spin-off. It includes both anime adapted from VNs and adapted into VNs. This stack DOES NOT include unofficial 18+ visual novel adaptations, nor any non-distributed visual novels, nor low-quality parodies or spin-offs.

All of the visual novels mentioned for each anime are implied to have been released only in Japan and be available only in Japanese as of June 2024, unless stated otherwise.

Please, drop a comment in my profile if a VN and/or anime is missing.
