By adult I mean over 18-20 years of age and with adult appearances. Nothing against anime with younger characters, but interested in finding some with older characters.

Frieren - Beyond journeys end

A real fresh take on fantasy stories imo with a lot of themes I always wanted to be explored in the genre. In my last pen & paper group i played an elvish alchemist specializing in seemingly useless utility potion effects. And when i created the character i had a hard discussion with my dm on how elves actually pervice the world and other races, with them reaching ages of thousands of years and whatnot. And frieren adresses that perfectly. Also that soundtrack is just the best. I have yet to listen to "One last adventure" and not get at leas queazy, if not tearing up a bit.

Were currently watching it a second time, just a week after finishing first time. We've never done that with any series.

Highly recommended

Fern and Stark are technically in the 18-20 age range though. And fairly teenage-y. But I agree it does explore a lot of more "mature" themes.
