Something mature / dark preferably, with no over the top scenes or kawaii faces, tropes etc.

Here are 2 animes that have what im looking for:

Fate Zero / Psycho pass.

0 kawaii expressions, serious plot, hardly any filler. I don't want something like full metal alchemist, or trigun. You can look at my list to see what I've seen.

Thanks.

Not really dark (has some dark themes), but Serei no Moribito might be a good choice.

You can watch Hataraku Maou-Sama!
It's about the devil Satan, who is a part timer in Mcdonald...

thanks homies.

added both to my plan to watch.

It doesnt necessarily need to be dark, but serious and no fanservice/ none of these ( > _ <) expressions, etc.

yeah, im biased because I love the fate franchise. I just dont want an overload of those things, fate zero did it right, but fate ubw doesn't have too much. its mostly only rin. Id much prefer it tamed down. I mean, if the story is good Ill look past it.

but the majority of shows I didnt have that experience, like fullmetal alchemist. it did it often, and turned me off from the story completely.

Shinsekai yori has some shounen ai//shoujo ai scenes, but it's only for 1 episode, and it's tied to the storyline, heads up for that.

thats fine - as I said above as long as it isn't a constant or overwhelming I'll be fine. I just dont want it to be every ep or a centralized plotpoint of the story, like harems or something like that.

I'll recommend Saiunkoku Monogatari as well, but I think you should watch Seirei no Moribito before anything else on your list.

The heroine in Saiunkoku is sometimes portrayed with distorted facial expressions for comedic effect. This is one of my favorites:

Berserk - It's a dark fantasy

It has a Film Series and anime series as well however the film series gets a little ahead than where the show ended but naturally the TV show has more scenes implemented into it and tells a better story. I would watch the TV show and then the last bit of the film series to catch up.
