Welcome to our definitive list of the best female anime characters, containing the plentiful girl anime names fans know and love.

Feminists will love these the strong anime characters. From ferocious females to lovely vampire anime ladies, all of your favorite anime babes are all here in this list of the best female anime characters found on TV and in film. Along with all of the awesome anime girl names below, you'll see which TV show or film they appeared in, their powers and abilities and the illustrator who created them. You'll find plenty of anime girls with red hair, blonde anime girls, raven-haired, and even blue-haired anime girls.

Did you know that anime is a relatively old Japanese medium? Cool anime and manga characters have been around since the early 1900s, although anime as viewers enjoy it today didn’t begin to hit the mainstream until around the 1980s. Some of the original anime programs, including Dragon Ball (which began airing in 1986), had more male protagonists than female, but they paved the way for the best anime women and many heroines that you know and love today. One of the most popular anime programs, Sailor Moon, began airing in 1995, and it featured female anime leads almost exclusively with a cute and unique aesthetic — arguably more iconic today than ever.

Today’s great female anime characters are known as such for a variety of reasons. Some, including C.C. from Code Geass, are mysterious and humorous. Others, such as Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell, are powerful yet sexual. In fact, many of the sexiest anime characters are so hot because they are powerful. A hot anime woman often brings much more to the table, so even though you'll see some silly tropes, don't underestimate a beautiful anime girl if you see her on screen. Whatever characteristics these best female anime characters have, however, they’re always one thing -- memorable.

This list includes many famous female anime names, representing some of the coolest and most beloved top anime characters in history. From the strong to the cool and the sweet, these anime female characters have earned their places on the list thanks to their long-lasting popularity. Which one of these popular anime characters are your favorite? If there's an anime girl name you expected to see here and don't, make sure to add it!
