    Some stuff that hasn’t been mentioned yet:

    Girls Band Cry. I found the cast really solid, realistic, and relatable.

    Land of the Lustrous. Predominantly female world and Phos is a surprisingly deep and relatable character who undergoes a lot of growth.

    Isekai Wildcard Picks:

    Ascendence of a Bookworm

    So I’m a Spider, So What?!

    Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear

    The Executioner and Her Way of Life

    My Next Life As A Villainess: All Routes Lead To Doom

    The Saints Magic Power is Omnipotent

    Didn’t I Say To Make My Abilities Average in the Next Life?!

    Hmm, it’s difficult.

    Moribito has good character development for it’s woman lead character. And while GitS is definitely a bit male-oriented as a series, I would say that the character development of Motoko is pretty good in each of the series I’ve seen (The movies, Stand alone complex 1 + 2) but still definitely a bit light on character development.

    I think it might be a good idea to tell us what series you didn’t like so we know how low the bar is.

    Does Spirited Away count? :P

    some more obscure picks of mine: Stardust Telepath, Mayonaka Punch, Gunslinger Girl, Do It Yourself!!

    (assuming a focus on characterization and not just good shows with prominent female characters)
