It's no exaggeration to say that some of the best anime feature strong female characters. Anime is an incredibly diverse media that has something for everyone. Whether the audience is looking for an action-packed, battle-oriented story with larger-than-life characters who possess all kinds of cool powers, or a down-to-Earth, heartwarming tale of everyday life with a relatable cast of characters, there's a whole list of anime to choose from.
From mystery thrillers to magical girl adventures, these are some of the best female-led anime series of all time.
With that in mind, female leads aren't exclusive to magical girl or shoujo outings, either, as plenty of quality romance, isekai, and action-thriller series prominently feature women in leading roles.

30 Darling In The Franxx's Female Hero Makes Up For Its Lackluster Writing
Anime Series by Studio Trigger & A-1 Pictures
Release Year | 2018 |

Of all the eccentric and overall entertaining characters of Darling in the Franxx, none have stood out more than its female lead, Zero Two. Zero Two's intensity and aggressive impulses are what make this anime so much fun to watch, and the depth of Zero Two's character does a lot to make up for the various shortcomings of Franxx's script.

The soundtrack also helps to boost this show's ratings along with other strong female characters like Ichigo, Miku, Kokoro, Ikuno, and, of course, their Franxx, which are every bit as important to the series as their operators.

The beauty of any anime series featuring strong female protagonists is that it can manifest in more cerebral or low-concept affairs or ultraviolent spectacles like the modern pirate anime Black Lagoon. One of the main characters at the center of this anime is Revy, a trigger-happy mercenary with uncanny fighting ability. However, living such a dangerous life leaves Revy with little space for vital components of the human experience, including emotion.
Revy's skills in combat include deadly hand-to-hand skills, along with her iconic mastery of dual-wielding Beretta 92Fs with deadly accuracy. Yet, her character is fascinating and far too foul-mouthed to be anybody's poster girl. Despite this, Revy's look and personality embody Black Lagoon perfectly as an overcharged Cowboy Bebop-like series in a modern setting.

Based on a novel series that began a decade earlier, aspects of The Twelve Kingdoms are definitely dated, but watching Youko grow from a whiny teen into a full-blown strong female protagonist is worth it. The anime also features a great musical score.

Most romance anime tend to focus on the pursuit of the relationship rather than the actual relationship, but that's not the case for Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku. Wotakoi tells two love stories: there’s the story of two friends who have common otaku interests and decide to start dating, eventually falling in love with each other realistically; and then there’s the already established, occasionally dysfunctional relationship of their two friends.

With its refreshingly adult take on romance anime, Wotakoi sets itself apart from the abundance of high school-based romance series. If anime fans are sick of standard sappy rom-com, Wotakoi will feel like a breath of fresh air.

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War is a stellar example of what happens when male and female protagonists are arguably too strong for their own good, or conversely, perfectly opposed enough to create conflict and comedy. Much of the initial premise of Aka Akasaka's popular anime features Kaguya Shinomiya, the student council vice president, and Miyuki Shirogane, the president, playing mind games to trick each other into confessing their feelings. However, their relationship isn't where the series ends, either.
Part of Akasaka's true gift as a mangaka is creating a strong supporting cast to endear the readers beyond Miyuki and Kaguya's hijinks, and to great effect. The result is a fantastic, character-driven series far deeper than a typical romantic comedy. That it starts with its titular protagonist being so headstrong that she gets in her way is merely the initial draw of this multifaceted anime hit.

Maomao's concern for others in medical distress is apparent even early on, as she catches onto the ignorant practices of people with herbs or products they don't expect to be harmful. She's also fairly pragmatic, knowing her knockout beauty and choosing to conceal it to prevent being abducted. Despite her strong personality, able even to resist the charms of the beautiful eunuch, Jinshi, Maomao has gaps in her social walls, such as how easily she's tempted by alcohol, yet she commands viewer attention when she starts unearthing the truth in her latest medical mysteries.
