Hello everyone.  Welcome back to another Marvelous Anime video. Before modern hits like Attack on Titan or Made in Abyss took over dark fantasy, there were older shows that shaped what the genre is today. The first traces of dark fantasy anime appeared in the late eighties and early nineties. These stories brought horror, myth and tragedy into animation when few others did. They were bold and often violent. They questioned faith, power, and the nature of good and evil. Many were released straight to VHS or aired late at night, which kept them hidden from most viewers. Even so, they set the tone for what came later. They proved that fantasy could carry weight and emotion. They gave rise to the underground fan culture that kept these stories alive for decades. So let's look back at the 11 forgotten dark fantasy anime that shaped the nineties underground scene.
