Thanks a lot for the GAs, Shura :)

Here some recommendations I don't see in other comments:
Bloodstained (A modern Castlevania, which of course brings us to...)
Castlevania (I'd actually recommend Symphony of the Night, but it's not on steam :( )
Cave Story (Old classic)
Momodora (You can also find the older games in the serie on itch.io )

The next are not strictly japanese, but the style is there:
Cross Code (I loved this, but maybe it's me)
Doki Doki Literature Club! (Freebie)
Eternal Senia (Freebie 2. I think this is by chinese devs, but I'm not sure)
Helltaker (Freebie 3, top soundtrack)
Volcano Princess (Ever played Princess Maker? Same thing. Also chinese devs)

🥰Bump🥰

Light Fairytale!
VALKYRIE DRIVE -BHIKKHUNI- (you probably know about it)
BLUE REFLECTION
UNREAL LIFE
ROBOTICS;NOTES ELITE
Necrobarista

Not anime game necessarily but - Bomb Rush Cyberfunk!

Shit, I accidentally closed the page and lost my comment. Let me try again and hope I don't mess up the formatting too badly.

• If you're a fan of turn-based JRPGs, check out the Trails series. The first trilogy, Trails in the Sky (and to a lesser extent, the following Trails from Zero/Trails to Azure duology) are basically love letters to the mid/late-'90s era of JRPGs, while the next sagas (Trails of Cold Steel, Trails into Reverie, the upcoming Trails through Daybreak) switch to a more modern 3D format, rely much more heavily on anime tropes, and spend a lot more time focusing on bathing with minors.

• If you're okay with visual novels, Higurashi (Ch.1 free on Steam/GOG) and Umineko are staples of the mystery/horror genre for a reason, although they both tend to be longer than strictly necessary and feature somewhat divisive conclusions. Not dissimilarly, The House in Fata Morgana is one of the best novels I've read in the last fifteen years; it's by a Japanese indie studio and at points falls into some common tropes, but it deliberately eschews anime stylings in favor of something more European/Gothic.

• Another VN, Steins;Gate is a mix of lighthearted slice-of-life/romantic comedy, nonsense science-fiction, and thriller/horror elements that comes together wonderfully. Steins;Gate ELITE is a version of it that's quite literally an anime game, with the script of the original overlaid on anime scenes, either taken directly from the anime adaptation or newly-produced for this version; I don't really recommend it over the original, though, as it cuts most of the interactivity, loses the original artstyle, and doesn't bother restoring one character's chapter that was heavily truncated for the anime adaptation, although it does at least fix one of the anime's biggest characterization missteps. Steins;Gate 0 is a much bleaker read, though despite the name it's very much a sequel to the original game, with a story that sort of spins out of a version of the 'true end' of the original game and featuring more distinct routes/story branches. Linear Bounded Phenogram is a delightful collection of non-canon short stories, putting the spotlight on various members of Steins;Gate's cast, but unfortunately it's not available for separate purchase; unless you manually added it to your library for the first couple hours it was live, it's only available as a bonus for buying ELITE. There's also the dating sim spinoff but we're just not gonna talk about that. There's a number of other works set in the same general universe, but the Steins;Gate games are the standout - I'm not really recommending Chaos;Head or Chaos;Child because while they're excellent horror works on their own, they both have serious flaws that need third-party patches to fix - the S;G games mostly only have bad fonts/kerning/line breaks, aside from some poorly translated messages in 0.

• Slightly more interactive! AI: The Somnium Files is a series of cyber-noir murder mystery games where nothing is as it seems and everything slowly slides towards absurdism - and that's before you start diving into suspects' dream states. These are both text/dialogue heavy but broken up by investigative and interrogative scenes, plus platform/puzzle elements in the Somnium dreamscapes. The plots are as twist-heavy and borderline nonsensical as expected of Kotaro Uchikoshi (Zero Escape, and the older Infinity visual novel series), with character designs by Yūsuke Kozaki (No More Heroes, Fire Emblem Awakening/Fates, Pokemon Go)

• I see a lot of good stuff in your library that's got playtime but no acheivements, indicating maybe card farming? Might I suggest trying Tales of Berseria, CODE VEIN, or Tokyo Xanadu if you're looking for an action RPG? Perhaps Root Double (from another mind that spawned the aforementioned Infinity series) if you enjoy overly-complex sci-fi/disaster visual novels with plenty of bad ends? How about Omega Labyrinth Life if you're after softcore yuri hentai disguised as a Mystery Dungeon game? The possibilities are endless, my friend.

I've not have enough, nor have played enough anime games to recommend anything.
But bump & thanks!

The closest thing to an anime game I can recommend is Ib or Yume Nikki

BUMP!
you don't have Doki Doki Literature Club! so i guess you're not into VN?
Valkyria Chronicles and Disgaea franchise if you're into turn-based

Bump!

bump for solved, i played "Anime Artist" and "pixel puzzle 2 anime" but i think you alrteady know it.

Bump

Bump and thank you.

Yakuza series!
Not literally anime but very Japanese and as such a lot of tropes and general feel can be anime-esque. Unless you care only about the visuals... Then you should play it anyway because it's still like one of the best game series ever

Bump

Bump! Thanks a lot! :)

Sorry, every game I considered suggesting has already been mentioned. So I'll just leave a gif and leave

View attached image.

bump:)

I don't know about actual anime games but as for games with beautiful characters and artwork you could look at the Suikoden games and Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross

Bump for solved <3

just missing the first question ...

Why do you not give "code vein" a try ?

It was very enjoyable if you like darks souls like

Games

• Rabbit Burn

Anime (all comedy)

• Great Teacher Onizuka
• Ishuzoku Reviewers
• Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro
• Asobi Asobase
• Maoujou de Oyasumi
• Edomae Elf

Bump for solved. The obvious recommendations are already there (thou I'm surprised Final Fantasy series were mentioned only in form of FF Tactics)
So to suggest something less mainstream, maybe Okami?

Try these VNs. The first one is relatively short, and it's a prequel to the second one.

The game is beautifully crafted and has a good soundtrack. Here is also the interview with the developer. I suggest watching it after playing the game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqqRebVUqmg

You probably will know most if not all of these, but they're still good anime and you should watch them :)
Re:Zero - Timeloop fuckery with psychological themes.
Aggretsuko - Funny, short and sweet comedy about office work.
Beastars - High school drama + fighting, deaths and other interesting themes.
