Ichikawa Haruko, Land of the Lustrous: genderqueer rock people fight mysterious moon creatures in the far future; intricate world-building. Very good one-season anime on Amazon Prime.
Hagio Moto, Otherworld Barbara: beautiful and deeply bizarre story combining a dream world, invaders from Mars, psychic therapy, and cannibalism, from a classic mangaka.
Yamazaki Kore, Frau Faust: Female Faust! That was all I needed, honestly, but the ambiguously romantic relationship between Faust and Mephistopheles was also a plus. Yamazaki's Ancient Magus' Bride is longer and better known.
Nagabe, The Girl from the Other Side: Siuil, A Run: a mysterious and melancholy fairy tale about a little girl abandoned in a wood where people turn into monsters.
