Hi I'm looking for a tough female lead, not just physically, but mentally. I'm really sick of female characters that can't do anything on their own. It would also be great if there was some sort of a romance, and preferably not ecchi. It would be great if it were josei, but shounen and seinen are okay as well as long as the female is the lead. THANK YOU! 😀 643fp

Basara (completed) - She has her emotional moments, but overall, she's strong physically and mentally. A real fighter.

Saver (completed) - "Cool" fits the female lead the best, but "badass" works too. When you read this story, you can really understand why the characters ending up looking to her naturally as a leader. Very charismatic. As much as I love the heroine, I should warn that plot is rather... confusing. Also, you should consider volume 1 as a prologue and the real story and setting does not really begin until volume 2.

A Generation of Military Counselor (Novel) (ongoing) - The MC is an ex-SWAT police detective who gets sent to (pseudo) ancient China. Tough and clever lady.

None of those suggested have any overt romance, however, they all contain strong female leads that are relatively unique.

Hito Hitori Futari

Red River is one of my favorites with a strong female lead. I'll have to go through m
y list again to find any others like that.

This is my Sig ..............................................................

The Sensual M - physically strong(x) /mentally strong(o). I'm not sure female lead is badass. At least she is cool. This is not a story of strong female lead. but you can see the decisive, cool female character.

Unstoppable Siblings - physically strong(?) /mentally strong(o).
They are just highschool student, so not physically strong. But they 'can do anything on their own'.

Hatenkou Yuugi - probably has one of the most badass female leads I've ever found in a manga

Gokusen 🙂

Rasetsu no Hana - Completed, however the last five chapters are not online, but this has been officially translated into English so it might be possible to get the last volume through your library.

Takane to Hana - Ongoing. This may not be what you're looking for, considering it's more along the lines of fun fluff. However, this has a very strong (not physical) female main character who is bold, cleaver, conniving, independent, and knows how to handle herself, yet her age is still believable. The synopsis might at first make you dismiss it as some clishe average shoujo garbage, but it has yet to disappoint me in how it manages to make something that should be typical so original and funny.

Try these:

1.) Tomo-chan wa Onnanoko
Best 4 Koma I've ever read.

2.) Otoyomegatari
No fantasy but good read.

3.) Arachnid
Not a girl manga.

4.) Claymore
Every Otaku has either seen or/and read it.

5.) I-Revo
Cute read.

6.) Superior
High Fantasy.
