    What? This is a golden age of anime.

    You could count the number of anime available in the west and worth watching 25 years ago on one hand, maybe two.

    Now? If you can't find something, you're not looking hard enough. Off the top of my head, current anime that do not remotely fit your categories:

    - Spy x Family

    - Dandadan

    - Dungeon Meshi

    - Apocalypse Hotel

    - Yumi no Tsugai (Daemons of the Shadow Realm)

    - Kaiju No. 8

    - Marriage Toxin

    - Steel Ball Run

    - The Summer Hikaru Died

    - Akane-Banashi

    - Dorohedoro

    edit: formatting. edit 2: added Dorohedoro, good call down below
