In addition to the excellent examples posted here that refute this, I want to add "Last Exile", "Wonderful Days", and "Chrono Crusade".
Last Exile <3
I think "refute" is a rather strong word. There exist some good examples posted here (though some of them do stretch the idea what wouid count), but it doesn't refute OP.
Haven't seen any Ranking of Kings mention, I thought it was cool, in a twisted fairytale with weird bullshit kind of way.
Harsh world, some very tortured characters doing terrible things, and the most harmless kind-hearted protagonist you could imagine just winning over and redeeming everyone.
Don't watch the spin-off series though, it's uninspired filler episode shit.
my personal goated anime list:
Silent voice, your name, weathering with you
and everything from studio ghibli obviously (I personally love porco rosso)
I honestly only look this kind. The rest is just bad and tries to cache it with fanservice.
My father (~45) and I (~8) both fell in love with Ghibli (indistinctly remember my dad seeing Nausicaa on TV guide and saying "if it's ghibli I'm not missing it") after watching Spirited Away on Cartoon Network one random night in 2004 or so. Over the next 12 years I'd watch most of the rest of their catalogue & even visit their museum in Japan, but had yet to see PR until my birthday one year someone got it for me
I was NOT ready for that movie being what it was, nor the amazingly hard "better a pig than a fascist" line, and it's my favorite from them and has been since
