So, as we know femdom in modern porn media usually dipicted as an interaction, which based on phisical abuse, cruelty and brude force. But is there any examples (from movies, books, anime, manga, comics, and, of course, games) of femdom, which based on soft power? Like, for example, seduction, manipulation, deception, persuasion?

Any married couple
I would say that the majority of modern male-female dynamics are based on "soft femdom" using the power of pussy. Certainly goes for basically every married couple I've ever seen, and sometimes calling it "soft femdom" would be too generous.
The "succubus" and "Poison Ivy" archetypes typically are overtly dominant with a focus on seduction and emotional/psychological manipulation. Obviously still very abusive because they're villains but depending on the character they might not only be disadvantaged in a conventional fight but even see it as an admission of failure having to resort to physical violence.
On the protagonist side, arguably almost every female "hero". Mostly for the male gaze in the audience not necessarily in-universe and Kim Possible doesn't exactly seduce people but she's still a "spy" type agent who gains her acrobatic prowess from cheerleading.
In porn games specifically, any female antagonist who is designed to be defeated rather than to dominate the protagonist, and any female protagonist with an active slut route. Violated Heroine, Rain's Rave, LonaRPG are the outright "grab the rape monster's dick and milk it dry" extreme (thus technically not rape, because the NPC is seeking sex in the first place). Lots of "female life sim" games have at least a few "implicit prostitution" scenes where you gain something else from people by offering them sex, and can actively steer in that direction instead of passively waiting to be propositioned.
Occasionally an established couple will have a "woman wearing the pants in the relationship" dynamic but I don't really pay attention to those things enough to remember specific examples, the same goes for cowgirl and other woman-on-top sex positions or supposedly equal power dynamics which end up appearing female-led due to PC-NPC disparities. Outside of the stereotypical dominatrix (both the spiked whip ball-stomping type and the "don't touch yourself, lick my boot" type) I honestly have no idea what qualifies as "femdom" in such discussions because something like the woman grabbing the man's tie and pulling him into bed is just ...normal lust? And on the other hand I've seen crazed incels rage that cowgirl position is emasculating beta weakness so eh.
