To add to this list, Eureka 7’s protagonist group are straight up revolutionaries. Both aesthetically and through their willingness to take violent direct action against the state. This becomes a major plot point over the couse of the series as the main character naively takes part in and then attempts to reject the violence inherent to revolutionary struggle.
Crow by Ted Hughes is pretty damn bleak. Just a warning, he may have possibly driven Silvia Plath to her death while writing it. Shout out to Dulce et Decorum est by Wilfred Owen as well.
Nah, Dark Souls III is a better manufactured game, probably, but it's vastly less fun, and it's an interminable fanfic slog. Dark Souls II was also a slog, especially after SOFS but the meta was silly and PVP was great. Dark Souls is the best of the actual Souls series because of the flaws in it's matchmaking and the weird unexplained mechanics. Getting to the Undead Berg and being accosted by an invincible naked man who won't kill you but won't leave you alone is the epitome of experience for these games and all the attempts to fix this made it them way less rewarding.
