Sure:
>Welcome to the NHK
MC is a depressed hikkimori NEET, it was made by an actual NEET, it doesn't provide all the (right) answers, but its something more positive while understanding the roughness of such a life
>Bokurano
Its morbid and brutal considering how prevalent death is in it, but there's some hopeful things in it and that's appreciable (don't read the manga though, its just despair circle-jerking, the anime director changed it to be better than that shitheap)
>Hajime no Ippo
MC is a dude who was getting bullied at school, completely friendless, extremely unhappy and dissatisfied in his life, had no self-confidence and didn't know what his future held, seemingly talentless, but, well, you'll see.
>Evangelion
Well, its complicated. I wouldn't say its "hopeful" per se unless you really understand the ending, but its more of a warning, and there is some good in it and some actually good people worth a damn who do right by the MC and give some hopeful themes based on their actions, those are the ones who make the anime worth watching; plus people say the Rebuild movies make it more hopeful, but I wouldn't know about those
>Gurren Lagann
You'll see, just watch it; its something special.
I remember watching it for the first time my college freshman year, its one of those exceptionally few anime that have a strong chance to change your life make sure you use the old fansubs for it though, I got em if you need em. Its not an easy journey mind you, but its an incredible one.
>Great Teacher Onizuka
Specifically there's several episodes (and a small arc towards the end) which concern a suicidal nerdy dude, but just watch the whole damn thing, its great I personally recommend the dub for it though, I thought Blum was a better fit for Onizuka than Takagi (he voices Okoyasu in Jojo for reference), even if a lot of the minor character voices are hilarious in the dub.
>One Piece
Unfortunately it takes a long fucking time to really get to the part that I'm thinking of. Though pretty much all of the characters have some tragic things to deal with, though even with that in mind I'd hesitate before calling it about "depression" except for a specific part of it. Its just an all around great work though and worth watching until the part I'm thinking of.
>Rising of The Shield Hero
Its rage and anger against the world mixed with depression rather than just pure depression; it handles it well with a right answer.
>Re;Zero
Isekai where the MC's only power is that he can respawn from death, he's powerless so he gets killed over and over again, you can imagine what that does to a motherfucker.
