I'm curious what anime has payoffs similar to Violet Evergarden the Movie, Maquia, A Place Further Than The Universe, and Bang Dream: It's MyGo!!!!! that I haven't seen yet.

I find stories where the main character(s) persevered through great struggles, and got rewarded for it at the end, have the most satisfying emotional payoff.

You have watched so many anime that I find it hard to recommend something new😅

The best that I can recommend - that you haven't complete - is Umamusume season 2. IMO it's possible to follow the plot even if you skip season 1.
