Made in Abyss - looks happy go lucky on the outside, but it will crush you. Puella Magi Madoka Magica is also a good dark/fantasy, although the visuals would make you think otherwise.

It's quite a ride! The Cain Saga by the same manga author has more pronounced subtextual BL and is a gothic Victorian fantasy that truly goes places. Also highly recommended. As for actual BL, Kuro no Kishi: Black Knight might be up your alley, but the story is far more focused on romance than fantasy imo.

Where to watch it: Crunchyroll, Netflix (US) It’s almost impossible to have so much as a passing interesting in anime and not come across One 13. Doukyuusei (2016) ‘Doukyuusei’ is one of the best romance anime movies that has ever been made. The film follows Rihito Sajou and Hiraku Kusakabe, two people with conflicting personalities and very few common interests. Rihito is what you would call an intelligent student.The dark fantasy anime follows Denji, a really unfortunate teenager who has lived a rough life for years since his father passed away- leaving behind an overwhelming debt for him to pay. Although he has every reason to be unhappy, he finds some semblance of normalcy and sanity through his pet, chainsaw devil Pochita.
