If you're saving your analysis to other shows, then you're more or less admitting that you didn't bother to give much consideration into the character's complexity. Previous posts carry enough detail for one to see the multi-dimensional personality, but I shall write a couple of things based on them.
So we have Nina, who at first could be written off as the lawful good paladin leader of this RPG party, there are characters like that with shallow reasoning. However, we're presented with her past and motives, then her interaction with certain individuals. She leans her alignment at time: to Chaotic Good during Dinn Dee matter, to Lawful Neutral after Layfon's secret is uncovered and finally to Chaotic Neutral about the haikizoku issue. She definitely doesn't act solely on just one principle, she has priorities: Folk, fairies, friends and herself. Based on how the confronting problem presents itself, she'll bend either the rules or her relationship. But there's always a solid reason if not reasoning behind her reactions to those, be it logic or emotion. She stops and thinks when she has the chance (about Layfon, Dinn Dee, city's future) but may act on the impulse as well, especially under stress. (Layfon's secret, haikizoku, match vs first platoon) Thus, she feels more human and realistic than your average anime character. (watched some of the shows you mentioned and some of them have quite synthetic lead characters to be honest)
