Top Ten Female Anime Characters

The Top Ten
1 Mikasa Ackerman - Attack on Titan Mikasa Ackerman is a fictional character in the manga and anime series Attack on Titan, also known as Shingeki no Kyojin in Japanese, created by Hajime Isayama. She accompanies the main protagonist Eren Jaeger. Her most notable feature is the red scarf that she wears. She is one of the most strongest characters in the Attack on Titan franchise.

Mikasa deserves to be #1 in anime girls list...she just shows how a girl could be very strong and beautiful at the same time, she had this crapy past watching her parents dying right infront of her, she lost her family over and over and she didn't stop to turn this pain in such an amazing Ackerman power, I love the way she cares for Eren and Armin and very serious to protect them and not losing family again, her charachter developes a lot in the manga later and she becomes more mature and cares a lot for her other freinds, this girl taught us to keep fighting never stop to let pain away and be cruel and beautiful as she said about this world, Love her

I love Mikasa. She's very pretty and she's one of the best with the titan killing equipment. She's my favorite character in the show. Yes, she's a bit overprotective of Eren, but it's only because he's the only family she's got left, so I can kinda understand.

2 Hinata Hyuga - Naruto Hinata Hyuga is a fictional character in the anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto.

I really love her character, especially her development.

Her struggle throughout the series taught me a valuable lesson about how true strength really is. Maybe she is weaker than many other fellows, her trying deserves an acknowledgement from everyone (including Naruto for sure).

Sacrifice, trying hard without feedback, just to advance, to overcome her own hindrances, to catch up with her love also her source of inspiration, I totally don't understand what people mean to say she is a terrible character. Because for me, she's for sure an amazing female character I've ever seen in any types of anime I've read.

No you don't understand. I can't even explain how much I love Hinata. She represents everything a good shinobi is. She is hardworking, has a strong resolve, doesn't think twice when it comes to protecting the ones she loves when they are in danger. She is extremely courageous and no matter how difficult the fight even when there is no hope she will never run.
To round it all up, she is the sweetest and nicest person after all the hatred she faced from her clan there was no hatred in her heart and she always persisted.
Hinata is the only one who acknowledged Naruto when he was called a monster by everyone. She deserves a lot of love.

Hinata is a Lioness! So brave and courageous with a strong will. Her best weapon of course is her kind heart and her words. Nothing will beat hinata hyuga for me. I love her personality her,touching backstory, her personal growth with the help of a certain goofy blond boy. Her design is so fantastic. I love how she protects Naruto so much he tells her that he needs to protect her once in a while too. She is so strong but also really modest and down to earth. I think that's really cute. We deserved more of Hinata. She is always best girl forever

I like Hinata because unlike most heroines who are just damsel in distress Hinata can actually protect and fight for her loved ones and refuses to back down and run away. She is the one who tries to protect and doesn't rely on anyone protecting her. That's why she stands out

3 Erza Scarlet - Fairy Tail Erza Scarlet is an S-Class Mage from the infamous magic guild Fairy Tail. Erza starts off as a lone wolf and stays loyal to following the rules. As the story develops Erza changes into loving mage strong and independent. As her terrible past haunts her she ignores her Nakama's calls that they want help. Erza's past starts with her working to build the dangerous tower called the Tower of Heaven also known as the R-System. Meant to resurrect Lord Zeref the evil Dark Wizard. Erza is taken back to the nightmares that she tried to run away from but failed because of her old friends holding her hostage. Having no choice but to risk her life for her Nakama she tried to fuse her body with a lacrima ...read more.

Erza was one of the youngest S Class mages at Fairy Tail. As for character development, Erza went from a little girl who was a slave to the people who destroyed her home, to being known as the queen of fairies,Titania. She even scares Natsu and Gray(2 of the most reckless people to ever exist). Erza was even able to use the Nakagami Armor which Levy said that since the Nakagami Armor uses so much magic nobody has been able to put it on in ten years. In Erza's fight with Kyouka she loses all her senses and yet she still wins. That's for people who think she's not strong. For people who think that Lucy is better, when has Erza screamed for Natsu or Gray to save her, oh that's right! Never! As for being useless, before being S Class, Natsu and Lucy couldn't even go on S Class missions without her since it's against the rules.For people who think she says the same blah every time, it's because she's lost people close to her before and she refuses to let that happen again! Yes, Lucy does ...more

Best character ever! Strong, caring, beautiful and totally not useless. Funny while being strict and helpful, a great leader and a true comrade, friend and family. Never underestimate the Titania!

Ezra is a beast when she fight and she is in her Armadura Fairy Armor its
Erza's strongest armor (so far), she also has 2 swords in this form, it's so strong it able to defeat Knightwalker's spear Ravelt (although her armor broke as a result of doing so).

Not only is she totally badass and beautiful, she is also the most caring person. She knows exactly what to say to help and is practically everyone's older sister. One of the most dependable characters for emotional support while still being one of, if not the strongest. Queens only. ❤️

4 Android 18 - Dragonball Z
5 Bulma - Dragon Ball/Z/GT/Super Bulma is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball manga series created by Akira Toriyama. Bulma is the most significant female character in the series.

How is Bulma not in the top 5's? She is super smart and pretty! She and Beerus were always my favorite characters. And without her, Gohan and Krillin wouldn't have made it to Namek. Think about it: If they went to Namek in the same ship that Goku did, Goku wouldn't have been able to train in 100x gravity, so he wouldn't have ever been able to defeat Frieza.

Bulma ROCKS! She's so intelligent and loveable! Go Bulma!

She deserves number one.

6 Riza Hawkeye - Fullmetal Alchemist Riza Hawkeye is a fictional character from the Fullmetal Alchemist manga series and its adaptations created by Hiromu Arakawa.

Honestly, without Riza and her badass skills, I don't think anyone would last that long in the FMA world; especially Roy. Without Riza there would be no Flame Alchemist, there would be no-one to take care of Hiyate, and there would be no saving the world buisness.

And she's a Hawkeye for a reason; SHE CAN AIM PRACTICALLY WITHOUT LOOKING!

She's so cool and strong.

Most badass female ever

7 Winry Rockbell - Fullmetal Alchemist Winry Rockbell is a main supporting character of the Fullmetal Alchemist series. A close childhood friend of Edward and Alphonse Elric since their young life in Resembool, she is almost like a sister to the two and essentially their only family. An amateur surgeon and mechanical repair specialist/enthusiast, Winry is Edward's rear line support as his personal automail engineer and mechanic, making sure his prosthetic right arm and left leg are always in good working order. Additionally, she provides a great deal of emotional support for the pair and plays the role of Edward's love interest.

My gorgeous queen!

8 Saber - Fate/Stay Night Saber is a fictional character from the Japanese visual novel and anime series Fate/stay night by Type-Moon and its prequel, Fate/Zero, by Type-Moon and nitroplus. She is the the Saber-class Servant of Kiritsugu Emiya during the Fourth Holy Grail War in Fate/Zero and the Saber-class Servant of Shirou Emiya during the Fifth Holy Grail War in Fate/stay Night. She is the main heroine of the Fate route. Her true identity is Arturia Pendragon, as her character is inspired by the legends of King Arthur.

The most noble of all female character in anime.

Hot and cool at the same time. Best anime female.

She deserves #1 along with Revy

Saber should be number 1

9 Revy - Black Lagoon Rebecca Lee, mainly referred to as Revy, and sometimes Two Hands, is the main female protagonist of the Black Lagoon series.

She’s most certainly my favorite out of this list, solely because despite the testorne drive the anime and manga is. Revy’s more then this sexy and alcoholic gunslinger that swears like a sailor. With my initial thoughts towards this character being that of a walking and talking male fantasy. Boy was I ever delighted to find by far one of the most complex and three demensional women in anime and manga. She sets the bar for anti-heroines and fictional women with grey morals and emotionally thought provoking depth within manga and anime. She’s a despicable human being at the end of the day, so say what you want about her. But she’s sure as hell iconic as she is deadly.

She is one person that you don't want to make angry. She has a very short temper and when you piss her off, she'll kill you without remorse or any second thoughts. But at the same time she's one of the main protagonists. She's a badass!

Revy is probably one of the coolest characters ever, she's easily one of the best written characters and is also really interesting too.

Those shorts bring out her sexy legs

10 Rukia Kuchiki - Bleach

Yeah BOY! No wonder Ichigo fell in love with her. Read the manga and you literally cannot deny that they were perfect for each other. I don't know what Kubo was on to end Bleach that way, but Rukia and Ichigo will always be Bleach for me. Her personality was so beautiful and I loved how diverse and well-rounded she was. She was Ichigo's inspiration (OTP is so perfect) and she was an overall badass warrior!

You are right orihime has stronger character than because becoming a maid of a stupid person who was her crush in her youth in the end of bleach really needs be a strong character but sorry because I like rukia who worked hard to save the world instead of crying like your strong character. ichihime fans are also right because ichiruki fans are happy that rukia did not marry ichigo after seeing orihime condition in the end of bleach. Is she is his wife or servant by the way he is behaving and talking to her I don't understand. and also ichigo seems to be more interesting in talking to rukia rather than orihime whom he marry. whether is the ending rukia get what she deserve. she is a captain and orihime is maid. So best luck to our strong character for her safe future.

Rukia is my number one favorite female character of all time. She's a rare heroine who manages to be a million different things at once - graceful, mature, badass, sassy, intelligent, empathetic, iron-willed, elegant, selfless and genuine. She was not designed to be a fanservice character, which makes her all the more respectable and unique.

Rukia rocks! She and yoruichi are the best girls on bleach. Plus she needs more credit after all she is the one who made ichigo who he is today. And she is not a crybaby or a weakling. She's actually awesome and brave and I just don't see how sakura is in higher on the list rukia should at least be in the top ten

The Contenders
11 C.C. - Code Geass C.C. is the pseudonym of a fictional character in the Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion anime series by Sunrise. C.C.'s real name is never shared with the audience, despite eventually being learned by protagonist Lelouch Lamperouge.

She's hilarious and her personality is so unique! But her character development is extremly gorgeous as well as her unique bond with Lelouch!

I like MiKasa but C.C is the best! Her persona makes her so unique!

Wheeler put her here good job

The coolest ever.

12 Faye Valentine - Cowboy Bebop Faye Valentine is a fictional character from Cowboy Bebop who first appeared in the third episode Honky Tonk Woman who was a wanted bounty head who later joined the bounty hunter group along with Spike and Jet, she's arrogant, opportunistic, grumpy and lazy and despite her appearance she's actually 77 years old following an tragic accident that claimed both her parents Faye was severely injured and was cryogenically frozen until a cure was found for her condition.

Good looking, developed personality, and very good depth to backstory

She's seductively sexy

13 Kaori Miyazono - Your Lie in April

BEST! GIRL! EVER! I only hope that I can meet someone like her IRL one day.

Sakura from Naruto is above her?!

Best female anime character

Guys she is only 11

14 Lucy Heartfilia - Fairy Tail Lucy Heartfilia is a wizard in the guild, Fairy Tail. Her magic is called celestial spirit magic which allows her to summon spirits from another world. She currently possesses fifteen celestial keys, which is an extraordinary number for a celestial mage. She gets along best with Team Natsu, containing Natsu, Erza, Happy, and Gray, and Levy Mcgarden. Lucy is one of the smartest characters in the manga/anime Fairy Tail. It has been shown that Lucy has figured out most of the arcs mysteries like the Starry Sky arc.

Lucy is an incredible wizard and has great relationships with all her celestial spirits.I personally think she should be higher on this list.

She is my favourite character ever in the whole anime. I don't know why she is not higher

Lucy is greatest fairy tail character

Lucy was more strong willed than Erza

15 Yuno Gasai - Future Diary Yuno Gasai is the main female protagonist from the anime series "Mirai Nikki" or "Future Diary" published in October 10, 2011. Yuno Gasai is the second dairy owner and is a yandere who kills for Yukki, she owns the Diary of Future Love. She has pink hair tied into two low hanging pigtails with red ribbons.

Yuno Gasai has proven to be the Yandere Queen everyone knows her as. She can stare death in the eyes, and even stab herself for the one she loves. A heroic act if you ask me. I was Yuno for Halloween.

She started a craze, whilst being badass at the same time

She is Yuno Gasai.

16 Lucy - Elfen Lied Lucy (born as kaede), is a tragic, fictional Japanese Anti-Heroine, and Anti-Villianess, who is the main protagonist of her debut source, a manga officially known as Elfen Lied [alfen leed], written and illustrated by Lynn Okamoto, which was best known for it's T.V. adaptation of the same name, Directed by Mamoru Kanbe, and written by Takao Yoshioka, she, Japanese wise, was voiced by Sanae Kobayashi, Kira Vincent-Davis (Carli Mosier for the OVA), English wise. She's a Diclonius, a human-like species with fatal hand-like telekinetic powers, known as vectors, which can slice anything, let alone, anyone, in an unexpected moment.

Honestly to me she is just one of those characters that is just so hard to dislike especially when she is Nyu. Are you thirsty, need some water? Let me get you a shoe!

17 Nico Robin - One Piece "Devil Child" Nico Robin is a fictional character of the One Piece manga franchise created by Eiichiro Oda.

She is one of the best female characters in One Piece.
And it's very obvious Nami's fans are on a crusade against her. They feel so threatened by her. They do nothing but vote for Nami and hate on Robin. Just look at the "Favorite One Piece female characters" list of you don't believe me.

She's badass, wise, brave, and selfless. Not to mention strong after all she went through as a child.

Robin is so cool and badass! way better than that weakling Nami.

18 Homura Akemi - Puella Magi Madoka Magica Homura Akemi is a fictional character from the 2011 anime series Puella Magi Madoka Magica and its related media.

She repeated time over and over again to save Madoka. It's a shame that in Rebellion, she became the devil. But she's still a great character. She's an awesome gunshooter and Is also athletic(as shown In episode 1).

19 Yoruichi - Bleach

Are you mad Yoruichi at 43

20 Taiga Aisaka - Toradora

Taiga is awesome! Should be higher u, she is such a unique character!

My aesthetic!

21 Nami - One Piece Nami is a fictional character in the One Piece franchise created by Eiichiro Oda. She is based on Ann and Silk, two characters from Oda's previous manga Romance Dawn.

Without her OP probably won't make it to this point as the 2 strongest members had no sense of the direction and the rest don't have enough knowledge in weather and navigating ( maybe except robin and franky? ), they've probably sunk back at the red line

Has a 'deep' personality - several layers. Very smart and just a sly in a good way personality. I'd say she deserves a spot in the top 3.

Nami is way too high for such a weak and manipulative character.

Not a very useless character. Not a damsell in distress and I was shock when she got kidnap and escaoe herself.

22 Kagome Higurashi - Inyuasha Kagome Higurashi is the main female protagonist of the anime/manga series Inuyasha, equaled only in importance by Inuyasha himself.

I'm glad that the anime fangirls don't hate her. She deserve one of the top 10. She learn many skills, you know.

She has her badass moments

23 Dawn - Pokemon Dawn is a character from Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. In the games diamond, pearl, and platinum version she was one of the playable characters you can choose from. She will be an assistant for professor Rowan if you choose her male counterpart, Lucas. ...read more.
24 Asuna - Sword Art Online

My favorite female character from Sword Art Online (tied with Sinon). Asuna can be both strong and independent and kind and sensitive. And Aincrad and Mother's Rosario were Asuna's best roles. Finally, she is better than Lucy Heartfilia.

She is extremely cute and beautiful. Although she is also really strong and can be a badass sometimes

The only female anime character better than her is Silica but she isn't on the list so I voted 4 Asuna

So strong, I totally understand kirito

25 Tsuyu Asui - My Hero Academia
