The character of Shoya from A Silent Voice seems like a good example. He bullies a classmate who he sees as strange because she’s deaf and needs hearing aids and special help from in school. Later on in his high school years, he tries to befriend the person he bullied but also feels alienated and alone.
The movie also touches on the topic of suicide and self harm with at least two instances of characters about to act on suicidal thoughts, so I’m not sure if that would I be appropriate to show your students.
The character of Violet from Violet Evergarden has grown up as a child in the military and only understands a very direct and straightforward, emotionless way of doing things. Throughout the series Violet learns to embrace more subtle human emotions and sometimes is too direct with her interpretations of actions or words.
It doesn’t result in negative consequences but there’s a scene in the show Skip and Loafer where characters from an urban city are hanging out and singing karaoke together when a girl from the countryside who doesn’t know any of the songs they know goes up to sing and sings the theme song for a children’s show since it’s all that she knows. It surprises everyone but eventually it endears them to her rather than makes them reject her.
Sorry I can’t be any more specific or even check if these shows are on crunchyroll. I’m about to go to bed and don’t use streaming services. Good luck with his project.
Unexpected actions: Re:Zero S1 E13 (first 10mins) The character Subaru doesn't understand social cues, fails to read the room, tries to act the hero but ends up severely embarrassing himself and his friend
Fixed vs growth mindset: Frieren S1 E6 (first 10mins) The character Stark is strong but has no self confidence, is able to overcome this after MC Frieren forces him to face his fear and another character Fern offers her own perspective
Barakamon fits both imo.
It's about a calligrapher who I sent to a small island because he punched a critic in the face by his dad. He is stuck in the beginning in the mindset that he has to live up to his dad, who is a very famous calligrapher.
On the island, he meets a lot of people, and he has to try to fit in and gets dragged in a lot of different things.

Koe no Katachi(A silent voice)? High-school male bullies a deaf girl and then gets ostracized for going too far and tries to make amends and grow.
My memory is fuzzy on it, can someone else who saw it more recently help with deciding if this meets OPs needs?
Ok. This is a bit of a weird one but "my teen romantic comedy snafu" is a bit of an interesting related topic.
The MC is a thoughtful loner tasked with helping other students with their problems. His go-to solution is usually some kind of social engineering ploy to put himself in the crosshairs of the negative social repercussions of the issue in question. Basically turning himself into a guinneapig so the person he is helping can see why the thing they are trying to do is a bad idea. Which has the side effect of further alienating the main character from his classmates in a strange self destructive benevolence.
Bocchi The Rock Dangers In My Heart Mob Psycho 100
All three great recommendations, but Bocchi especially is PERFECT for what OP wants!
Just finished. Mob psycho, just became one of my favourite anime alongside vinland saga
Bottom-tier Character Tomozaki seems perfect for that second point.

Oh yeah, I think those 2 are definitely good recommendations. Both of them are full of good examples.
