Follow me on tumblr!Nope. This series is unabashedly Shounen.
Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.Is it a fighting manga?
Does it have fantasy elements?
Is the white-haired pretty boy older than 20 years (or looks like it)?
Is Deadly Doctor listed on it's trope page? And Your Reward Is Edible?
Imagine Rakan applying Calling Your Attacks to doing paperwork.~Anarchy Rakan for the hell of it COMMISSION THIS BRIDGE!~EHK- Is it a fighting manga?

This is a Tropes-Only Round, so let me check... (I'll let it pass since it's clarification.)
- It's not a Fighting Series.
- It has Fantasy elements.
- Said "White-Haired Pretty Boy" is not exactly "pretty", and definitely looks older than a "boy", hence YMMV.
- It does not have Deadly Doctor on its trope page.
- It does not have And Your Reward Is Edible on its trope page.

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.Ok people... There are a ton of us and one of the song. We can do this? YES.WE.CAN!
- Through the Night(Outlaw Star)?
- Is the anime Inuyasha? Hayate no Gotoku?
Is it from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei?
Imagine Rakan applying Calling Your Attacks to doing paperwork.~Anarchy Rakan for the hell of it COMMISSION THIS BRIDGE!~EHKBlack Cat isn't exactly a Fighting Series. There may be fighting, but TV Tropes defines Fighting Series as one where fighting is "integral to the plot" rather than a means to an end.
Anyway,
- It's not from Code Geass.
- It's not from Yu Gi Oh.

Anime Theme Song Game God Knows ArchiveThe anime has more than one Opening Theme. (Do remember that the song itself is not an Opening Theme.)
And I repeat: one of the previously-asked hints is a major hint. You need to review the list carefully.
