Oh, the OP mentioned anime. I love anime. I have not seen the particular titles mentioned, but I enjoyed Full Metal Alchemist, in which the main villain characters were personifications and named after the Seven Deadly Sins: Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, etc. And part of the plot line involved a priest of a sun god Leto, in which said priest turned out to be a charlatan manipulating the populace of the town. There is more but that would be spoiling.
Another series, Attack on Titan, in which the story involves the battle between inhabitants of a walled region against giants that eat humans, there are three concentric walls, each one had female names, and there was a religion in which the priesthood regarded the walls as goddesses. In fact I binged watched the last half of the second season of AOT and began the third last night. Not for the faint of heart though, as it is graphic violence.
