I recently finished Dungeon Meshi, Ousama Ranking, and lastly Frieren. I am looking for series around that vibe, preferably not Isekais (At least not the modern ones). Thanks in advance for checking this post!

I mean, if you can enjoy the pacing of Frieren, you can enjoy the pacing of the original FMA.

I obviously don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't seen it but the rush in Brotherhood robs some crucial plot points of any emotional impact and is lesser for it.

    If you're talking about the Tucker family that whole thing actually gets even less time in the original original FMA - that is to say, the manga. I think it's all over in 2 pages or something crazy like that.

    I'm talking more about (huge spoilers)

    spoilerHughes; there's far less of him in Brotherhood and his discovery of the conspiracy leading to his death all takes place in one episode in Brotherhood where I think it's something like 3 or 4 in the original. Much more tension to play with that way rather than it being a flash in the pan.
