Does 'Black Lagoon' count? Revy is undoubtedly a strong female lead, but the plot is more of a violent, chaotic series of mercenary jobs. The depth comes in character moments and themes of nihilism and belonging in a lawless city, rather than a deep, overarching narrative. It’s a character piece in an action wrapper.

Revy is fantastically complex and damaged, and the show has depth in how it explores the psyches of people who choose a life of violence.

I’m blanking on the episode count, but 'Yona of the Dawn' has a fantastic arc. Yona starts as a sheltered princess and becomes a determined leader gathering legendary warriors. The plot is a classic fantasy adventure with political intrigue and a touch of romance. The depth is in her character growth from helplessness to resilient conviction.

It’s a compelling journey, though the anime only covers the beginning of a much longer, excellent manga.

Last one from me: 'Jormungand'. Koko Hekmatyar is an arms dealer, a chaotic genius who drives the entire global plot. The story is a gritty, geopolitical action series about the weapons trade. Her strength is her strategic brilliance and ruthless, playful manipulation. The depth comes from the cynical yet insightful look at war as a business and the moral ambiguity of all involved.

It’s a different kind of power fantasy, with a female lead who is unabashedly amoral and fascinating to watch.

Hmm, 'psycho-pass' isn't led by Akane Tsunemori, but she's the moral center and grows tremendously. The plot's depth comes from its philosophical exploration of a society governed by a crime-predicting system. Akane’s strength is her unwavering ethical compass in a system designed to corrode it. She doesn't become a fighter; she becomes a pillar of principled judgment.

It’s a different kind of strength—intellectual and moral resilience against overwhelming systemic horror.

'The Ancient Magus' Bride' has Chise, who starts as a deeply depressed, self-sacrificing girl. The plot explores a magical world with folklore roots, and her strength grows slowly as she learns her own worth. The depth is in the beautiful, often dark exploration of belonging, trauma, and the different forms of love and family.

It’s a slow, atmospheric character study where strength is learned through vulnerability and connection.
