I think you would like Netflix’s ongoing Carmen Sandiego (2019) cartoon! It’s a heist series starring a heroic female thief, featuring other female characters on her side, on the villain side, and with more complicated/grey roles. There’s a lot of comedy (especially if you like puns or heist hijinks), with a strong thread of overarching drama as various groups collide and Carmen learns more about her past. The main theme of the show is family, especially found family.
I would consider costume design/outfits important visually, as Carmen’s iconic red hat/coat is a focus, and due to the travel/heist genre her team often wears very eye-catching disguises (in addition to everyone having their own signature look). I personally love the art and animation style, as it has a lot of stunning color, lighting, and environments.
While I haven’t poked into the fandom myself, I can tell you that f/f is the biggest category on Ao3, and there’s definitely some delicious potential/subtext for multiple femslash ships!
Content warnings: Carmen’s backstory, as laid out in the first couple of episodes, involves a lot of manipulation/gas lighting from the adults who raised her as a child (who are present day antagonists).
I hope you enjoy it if you try it out, or manage to find something else you like.
