I’m basically looking for anime where any character can die. Usually, most anime with this trope are horrible. I feel like the only good one is Chainsaw Man. Are there any others?

    Here are my favorites, in roughly descending order of preference:

    • Legend of the Galactic Heroes (1988 OVA version) - A space opera following two admirals on opposite sides of a galaxy-scale conflict. There’s a remake with more modern animation, but it has inferior music and character design so I prefer the 1988 version.
    • Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans - Some street kids try to make it big as mercenaries
    • Cyberpunk: Edgerunners - A young man gets involved with a small gang of cyberpunk mercenaries

      Legend of the Galactic Heroes (1988) for sure! One of my personal top anime of all time.

      And it’s not just space battles. It has tons of (fictional) history, strategy, and political philosophy.
