Fan Survey: Top 10 Badass Female Characters


NoFace

Recommended Posts

Me and the Nerd crew are currently doing a top 10 list of the most badass female characters in fiction. We have compiled a list of possible candidates to be on that list. But we want the fans to decide who is the best. So we need your opinion. Who would be on your top 10 list. If we are missing anyone, please add them to your list and make apparent. The 1 rule is that she has to be what is defined as a badass. If you think someone should be taken off this list, make a comment on that. Here are your candidates (no particular genre or fiction type):

Obvious flaw: You're clearly only listing female characters from series that you know, I can already think of a few missing ones. It should be open-ended.

Also, there's [url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/forum/30-polls/"]a section[/url] on this forum for polls and such. This is not it.

Ctrl+F "Erza Scarlet". No results found. Unbelievable.

What I was gonna say.
Add her and Konan from Naruto.
[spoiler=Here's why]
If you're not familiar with the series, the masked guy is falling down a giant pit, and explosive tags are essentially bombs.

[spoiler=Yuka Kazami]

Insane physical strength, a complete sadist, and so badass that she is apparently the only person Gensokyo's local snooping reporter hasn't interviewed. Probably out of fear.

First of all, arm cannon.
Second, she throws f***ing suns at you. What more do you need?
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=EX Rumia]
[IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/103tm2w.jpg[/IMG]

Total manipulation of darkness, possibly to godlike levels.
[/spoiler]

Add them.

Glad to see Larxene on the list though.

She is so badass, she makes most men seem like little girls.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Nina Williams][img]http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/nina-williams-tekken-6-wallpaper-1280x1024.jpg[/img]

If you've played Tekken, you know how much of a badass she is.[/spoiler]

This.

I'm not voting for Ex Rumia since she's more of a fan-made character and I don't care much about Yuka.
But Okuu is badass.;__;
I don't know everyone on the list either but I'll go with Maggie Fitzgerald and Xena too.

Also:
Slithice the Naga Siren: http://www.playdota.com/heroes/naga-siren
Fujiwara no Mokou: http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Fujiwara_no_Mokou
Mei & Mai from Seihou: 5 year old twin girls who became orphans and got trained to become badass soldiers. Sad story though ;__; http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Mei_and_Mai

Will post some others later, I was just doing video games for now.

Uhh, it's mostly girls from well know series though. I think out of the girls posted so far by the weeaboos of YCM, the only one I recognized was Nina Williams.

Because Erza Scarlet's not known at all, right? I don't even read Fairy Tale, and I know who she is.

And Konan's not from a well known series at all. Nope.

I don't see Amaterasu or True Zenon on this list.

The former is the Goddess of the Sun in the form of a big badass wolf that still messes up the forces of darkness with various sacred weaponry. The later is the Goddess of dimensional Overlords, and once slaughtered a group of 100 ridiculously-powerful demons in a single all-out brawl. She also punched out one of the strongest characters in the Disgaea series when he accidentally woke her from her nap and caused him to run away with his tail between his legs; mind, this was a character who can and will [i]explode planets essentially at his leisure[/i].

When neither of those make the criteria, we have a problem. Plus, they never stated "well known" as one of the criteria, so...

I may or may not have screwed up the roman numerals and my reasons for this list arent very intellegent.
