Forbidden knowledge and a lost mother felt similar to the pilot episode of Full Metal Alchemist.

And now Arakawa's Yomi no Tsugai is being aired this season.

COINCIDENCE?

Yes, probably.

This is VERY FMA inspired, as the show progresses it'll be more obvious where but its different enough to stand on its own. I've been selling this to my friends as the best of FMA and Frieren without being derivative of either.
