| Juuni Kokki is a blessed anime. It has violence in it and its anything detached of funny. Get it now.
Its fantasy and the main character is a girl. That may turn some people off; it did me.
Its also 45 episodes, so it may be a little too long for you, however the main story cuts off at 40.
But, the anime isn't based off a manga, rather its based off a novel. The animation, the story, the setting, is so godlike, that its beyond most animes out there at the moment. Juuni Kokki is easily on my top 5 list, not including movies. If you like anything regarding story, then this is it. Its like romance of the three kingdoms, except, well, entirely more badass.
Just stick through the first couple of episodes, its definitely one of those animes/stories where you hate the character at first, but then start respecting and loving the main character as you see them progress through the story.
