Don't mind me, I'm just here to mention princess Mononoke and lady Eboshi from the same movie, I would list a few but there's too many comments to parse so I just looked for those thinking they might not have been mentioned.
- Also basically every single main character in Spirited Away. The luck dragon might be male, and several supporting characters are, but the main protagonist, antagonist, and teacher character are all girls/women
  
  And there is nothing self-serving or self-glorifying about their actions. They simply see that a job has to be done and they do it.
