I'm on the hunt for anime featuring genuinely strong, well-written female protagonists who aren't primarily there for fanservice. I love characters with agency, depth, and impactful roles in their stories. Any recommendations?

Claymore is fantastic for this! It's a dark fantasy with a world populated by female warriors. Clare is an incredibly strong and determined lead. 💪
Violet Evergarden is a beautiful series with an incredibly strong female protagonist. She's on a journey of self-discovery and understanding emotions. Absolutely stunning animation too.
Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit features Balsa, a spear-wielding bodyguard who is just an absolute force of nature. Mature, well-written, and a great action fantasy!
Princess Mononoke (movie) is a classic for a reason. San is fierce and unforgettable, and the themes are deep. Hayao Miyazaki's heroines are always top-tier.
Ghost in the Shell (original movie or Stand Alone Complex series). Major Kusanagi is one of the most iconic and complex female characters in anime history. A true legend.
