10 of the Most Dangerous Female Anime Characters
Search for the top ten most powerful anime characters on the net and most of the time the ladies don't make the cut. However, put one of these ten female anime characters face-to-face with one of the top men and we're confident that the battle would be impossibly fierce.
So take a look at what we believe are ten female anime characters too dangerous to even make that top ten they needed their own list.
Shana
From: Shakugan no Shana
Quite frankly, if girls could have the ability to change their hair colour at will the world would be at peace. Kidding. But changing her appearance isn't Shana's best attribute (even though it's pretty amazing). Her most potent ability is how she can manipulate and bend fire into different forms to help her battle her enemies even to the point that she can use her ability to fly. She's a powerful flame haze, young but fiery. She has strong swordsmanship skills and is proficient in hand to hand combat. If she's having an off day, you probably wouldn't want to cross paths with her or get on her bad side.
Spirit of Lia de Beaumont
From: Le Chevalier D'Eon
Lia de Beaumont is often overlooked because her appearances in the series are quite succinct. But take note that this girl is so dangerous that she refuses to let her soul rest even after her own murder. This fact alone, her sheer will to avenge herself, is proof enough to understand how dangerous of a force she is. She regularly inhabits her brother's body during battles to fight off the hoards of living dead who are trying to take over France. She has a vengeful thirst to quench and you can tell by the look in her eyes that she means to drink her belly full.
Sachiko
From: Corpse Party: Tortured Souls
This young girl witnessed her mother die and paid the price with her life. Ever since, her spirit roams the school entrapping people within and she takes it upon herself to torture them both physically and mentally. If you have yet to watch Corpse Party, let your imagination run wild as we leave you with this bit of information to ponder whether or not she is one of the most dangerous anime girls out there. Her weapon of choice: scissors.
Misaki Jurai
From: Tenchi Muyou! GXP
In her most human-like appearance, Misaki wears her emotions on her sleeves and overwhelms the screen whenever she's present. Her affections for her daughter Sasami are so intense that when she's being teased, Misaki's super human strength emerges out of the blue, practically breaking all laws of physics. In later OVAs, her husband and sister's deaths are what trigger her awakening as the "counter-actor", a being so strong that it alone has the power and strength to threaten existence itself.
The Messiah (Akki)
From: Shinsekai Yori "From the New World"
The Messiah has the appearance of a young girl somewhere between the ages of nine and ten. But what she lacks in age she makes up for in madness, probably because she was brought up by qeeerats (Monster Rats). She is unable to speak, yet just by uttering a sound with her voice, she can punch a hole right through someone or send them crashing bloodily into a wall. She's wild and untameable, so best not to get in her field of vision cause she will literally burn you to ashes.
Saya Otonashi
From: Blood+
Saya is unique. With the exception of the first fifty years of her life, she only spends 2 to 3 years awake between decades of deep slumber and hibernation. This is the trait of a chiropteran queen. She makes it her duty while she's awake to get rid of anyone or any chiropteran disrupting the path of humanity. If her family is in any immediate danger her rage usually ensues turning her eyes blood red and her strength up to a maximum. With her Chevalier at her side, a steady blade and her powerful blood, she's a force to be reckoned with.
Sango
From: InuYasha
Sango is a warrior who fights off the yokai during Japan's Sengoku period. She uses her oversized boomerang, Hiraikotsu, made of demon bone during her battles and has the help of her faithful spirit cat, Kirara. Like many of our dangerous heroines, she holds onto a heavy past clouded by the grief associated to the loss of her family, her village, and her home. These feelings are what fuel her desire to rid the world of its evil as Inuyasha's ally. But the yokai aren't the only things she pushes off. Although she usually reserves her strengths for battle, she often makes a special exception for Miroku, using her full strength to ward off his playboy affections towards her.
Haruko Haruhara
From: FLCL "Fooly Cooly"
Imagine placing a few uncovered dried corn seeds in a microwave and waiting for them to pop. That's the best way to describe this badass female anime character. She's volatile, spontaneous and inexplicably violent. She uses a bass (animated version of Paul McCartney's) and a Vespa that seems to have a mind of its own as her "sword and steed" and never ceases to amaze us with her strength and dexterity. The fact that she hit a baseball back into outer space pretty much sums up her strength and power.
Ai Enma
From: Jigoku Shoujo "Hell Girl"
Ai Enma's cold and emotionless exterior are as puzzling as the character itself. Her past, dating back 400 years, is heavy and dark which is what led to her current grim and lonesome present situation. In modern day Japan she uses a wide set of abilities to complete any of a client's vengeful requests. Among those are the power to create flames out of thin air, to create terrorizing, engulfing illusions and to take away a life at a moment's notice. The danger surrounding this anti-heroine can be described in three simple words: walking horror show. Be sure to give her character a deeper look, if you dare.
Lenalee Lee
From: D. Gray-man
Don't let Lenalee Lee's smile fool you. She isn't as gentle and tame as she may seem at first glance. Her character starts off looking innocent but things get complicated as her past is revealed. She's an Exorcist - part of the Black Order - and uses her anti-Akuma weapon "Black Boots" to fight off the Akuma. These boots wrap around her calves and thighs becoming one with her body giving her tremendous speed, agility. Although she sometimes flutters through the air like a butterfly, she's more than often spotted crashing down on her foes as strong and indestructible as steel.
