Top 10 “powerful women” make men wary in anime/manga (P.1)

1. Kagura (Gintama)

Kagura is a cute girl with a simple, goofy personality. But contrary to her pretty appearance, she has a “crazy” nature that is no different from a boy’s, such as: loves violence, always has words and actions that make people laugh and has an unrivaled appetite, even willing to get angry at anyone who intends to peek at his food. When watching anime Gintama, everyone would be shocked to see a Kagura blatantly picking his nose all the time and love to fight, always solving everything with his fist. Therefore, Kagura has been favored by fans with titles such as: “the worst anime woman” or “the craziest heroine in the history of Japanese anime”.

2. Cagalli Yula Athha (Gundam Seed)

Cagalli is the ORB Union princess, now following in the footsteps of her adoptive father, she is the head of the Orb.

She has a cheerful, open-minded, enthusiastic, energetic and straightforward personality. Although she did not have much experience in national affairs, she still had the will and responsibility to take on the responsibility of an heir. Although she often appears strong as a “powerful woman”, in front of her lover, Cagalli still has a gentle personality like other girls.
