So much so, that when I first saw the image, I thought it was some sort of Princess Mononoke drawing.

That's not related to the anatomy question here, but you thinking that it heavily resembles Miyazaki's work just underlines the point I was making, that my style is nothing unique, just a bland something which might be this or looking like that etc.

As I already said, I know anatomy is the most important thing, but in my opinon it's also important to have your own style, or something unique to your drawings, especially when you want to be recognized. Having such a low confidence in your own skills in general that you adapt the style of whatever fanart you are drawing of, for example, is not exactly helpful either.

I used to really worry about style and being distinguishable from everyone else.

The best way I think to go about this is draw separate from your inspirations and just continue drawing in the way you like with what you've learned. If you're drawing buildings draw them as you see them rather then how you think someone else might draw them.

B-but that's the thing, I do draw the way I like it, how I learned it and how I see it, not how I think someone else would draw this.

Just draw what feels natural to you and don't worry about style. If you incorporate a few techniques from other artists, so be it. You still drew it.

I wonder if I'm even improving. xD

You always will, if you put any sort of effort into it. Compare a work you did today with a work from a year or two ago, and you should see atleast SOME difference

Pretty much this. If you like drawing in a certain way, just keep at it. It will evolve and take it's course as you mature as an artist. Fretting over your style isn't how styles are created.

Drew myself as MLP pone (sorry it's big).
First thing I have finished in quite a while and it was really fun.

No cutie mark?
