I would--and I don't mean this as a dig--do a little more research before buying next time. Based on what you've said here, I actually wouldn't recommend the Bravely games to you. I think they're fantastic games, and mechanically are 21st century versions of the SNES Final Fantasy games, but in terms of narrative they are incredibly light-hearted and constantly tongue-in-cheek. I'm not sure you'd enjoy that.

If you're into more serious RPGs, I'd check out the Shin Megami Tensei games available on 3DS and look into Crimson Shroud. Crimson Shroud is a board-game RPG as a videogame, and I thought it was exceptional. It's an eShop only game and is short and affordable. Dig out some reviews of it first though.
