Looking for anime with a deep plot. One that has conflict/drama
More recent anime is preferred but I'm not totally against older anime

I see that you like Madoka Magica.
If you're looking for more anime like that show, I suggest Princess Tutu and Uta∽Kata!
Though Princess Tutu is noticeably somewhat lighter (as it has lots of comedy) than either Madoka Magica or Uta∽Kata, they're both magical girl anime from the 2000s with some of the elements that made Madoka Magica popular, which includes a more dramatic and darker plot.

If you don't want more magical girl recommendations though, I suggest Twin Spica if you want something a bit more slice-of-life-y with your drama.

If you're looking for drama anime try out

March comes in like a Lion

Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinju

Houseki no Kuni

Beastars

Hyouka

Pingpong the Animation

They're all what I'd consider some of the best anime I've watched and came out in the past 10 years, so they're relatively new.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/7724/Shiki - Rather underrated. Slower pace, great build-up of atmosphere.

If you want plot you should watch Monster. Or maybe Seirei no Moribito.
