The 5 greatest heroines in the world (We can't stand)

Shoujo is a young women demographic. Although it incorporates many kinds from fantasy to reality, the main protagonist is a woman, so she can draw more to the population objective. In the course of the years, the era has changed. The protagonist can be a girl in high school who saves people from demons or an adult who works to support his family at a restaurant.

The 5 greatest heroines in the world (We can't stand)

Sadly, we couldn't bear an awful number of heroines when some of us should applaud our poms. We will mention in anime the five best shoujo heroines and we can't stand five.

10. BEST: TOHRU HONDA (FRUITS BASKET)

TOHRU HONDA


We continue this list with Fruits Basket's Tohru Honda, the perfect example of ideal shoujo heroine. She's kind, friendly, and adorable, usually what other shoujo heroine wants to replicate. Tohru lost her mother and became an orphan before the Sohmas took her in, but she never worries and puts others ' well-being before herself.

While she always does her best to stay optimistic so others don't think about her, she isn't a robot at all and can express herself. Tohru is a character who sets an excellent example for young women, with her 2019 counterpart behaving less like a maid and more like a teenage girl, making her appropriate for the times.

9. WORST: MEI TACHIBANA (SAY I LOVE YOU)

MEI TACHIBANA

Say I Love You're not somebody young girls would aspire to be. Mai is a shy girl who captured the school's most popular boy's attention and was essentially harassed in dating him. One of the first scenes between them is he cornering her after school in a back alley, taking her first kiss.

Then what's Mai's problem? She's OK with his behaviour. What needs a heroine encouraging a boy to do stuff because he's attractive?

8. BEST: SAKURA KINOMOTO (CARDCAPTOR SAKURA)

SAKURA KINOMOTO

Cardcaptor Sakura Kinomoto delights the magical girl genre. This famous magical girl series is a delight to watch. Sakura does her best and her school activities. She's a cheerleader, great cook, great friend.

Since entering middle school, a wonderful girlfriend can be added to that list as she begins Syaoran Li. Nothing comes to mind when trying to badmouth her either, making her one of the rare shoujo heroines.

7. WORST: NAHO TAKAMIYA (ORANGE)

NAHO TAKAMIYA

What makes Naho Takamiya a poor heroine depends heavily on Orange's behavior. Everyone should know that the future depends on your experience. If you have the power to change the future, you shouldn't because it just twists the present further.

But even after finding her future, Naho can not seem to leave the past behind, and even her future self seems the same. She marries her childhood friend and has a boy. Why want to change something so drastic?

6. BEST: SAWAKO KURONUMA (FROM ME TO YOU)

SAWAKO KURONUMA

Sawako Kuronuma, From Me To You's heroine, is lovely. She's possibly also today's biggest cinnamon roll in shoujo anime and manga. Despite her peers and the whole school spreading a lie about her as she looks like The Ring's protagonist, she doesn't give up her efforts to change herself.

She smiles brightly and is surprisingly persistent when times come. She's nice to people who certainly don't deserve it. Who could hate Sawako when she shines brightly?

5. WORST: SATOU MATSUZAKA (HAPPY SUGAR LIFE)

SATOU MATSUZAKA

Happy Sugar Life's Satou Matsuzaka should be reported to Child Protective Services, rather than attending high school or wandering around freely. Satou sworn to protect Shio, an anonymous girl living in her flat. She doesn't allow her outside.

She likes a little girl. She's got two-faced personality. She's manslayer. Satou is such a bad heroine for many reasons. It doesn't matter if her aunt rendered her crazy— that's no reason for the horrendous things Satou did throughout the show.

4. BEST: MISAKI AYUZAWA (KAICHOU WA MAID-SAMA!)

MISAKI AYUZAWA

Kaichou wa Maid-sama's Misaki Ayuzawa was a wonderful heroine when she made her debut, reigning as an outstanding heroine to this day. It's understandable why Takumi finds it attractive. Although Misaki is the typically stone-faced, stern school council chief, she works after school in a maid cafe to support her poor family.

She's not one to fall easily for Takumi's teasing, but she also shows her a somewhat girly side she normally conceals. Why aren't all heroines as good as Misaki?

3. WORST: ERIKA SHINOHARA (WOLF GIRL AND BLACK PRINCE)

ERIKA SHINOHARA

Erika Shinohara is Girl and Black Prince's heroine(?). She, though? First, she lies to her so-called friends that she has a boyfriend to suit them. Second, she snaps a picture of the most popular boy in school (how, then?) and asks him to lie.

Finally, she decides to become his dog and falls in love with him because he saved her from a man who is as bad as him. Think of lacking self-worth.

2. BEST: KYOUKO MAGAMI (SKIP BEAT!)

KYOUKO MAGAMI

Skip Beat's Kyouko Magami is a timeless representation of what the genre wants in its works. How hard can we all cheer for a strong, no-nonsense, and hard-working heroine regardless of gender?

When her childhood friend, who treated her as a maid, scorned Kyouko, she wants to revenge him by beating him at his own game: showbiz. But when she discovers she is honestly interested in the art, she begins to work harder. She's easy to like and cheer on, which is the most important aspect any shoujo heroine should have.

1. WORST: HEROINE (AMNESIA)

HEROINE

Finally, we come to the worst shoujo heroine in shoujo anime: a character not even worth a name — Amnesia heroine. Or what fans call anime sexual harassment. Because in the otome game it's based on, she's not saying anything in the series.

In twelve series, she said no more than ten words. While the main character should be the best thing about an anime, the only good thing about adaptation is the bomb launch. Owing to how stale and boring Heroine is, she's the shoujo heroine we can't stand most.

Shirobako Movie: Unbox anime's nitty-gritty

From "8½" to "Day for Night" to "Dolemite Is My Signature," movie history is full of filmmaking. The latest addition to this self-referential genre is Tsutomu Mizushima's "Shirobako the Film," an anime about the blood, sweat and beers that brought an animated film on screen. It is the sequel to the television series "Shirobako," which aired from 2014 to 2015 and focused around Aoi Miyamori (voiced by Juri Kimura), a newly minted production assistant at the fictional Musashino Animation who, along with the viewer, discovers the ins and outs of how anime is produced from scratch to screen — and all the speed bumps that pop up along the way. Since canceling an in-progress sequence, the film opens four years later, with the great Musashino Animation a shadow of its former self. With the studio floundering, one of its executives comes to Miyamori with a bold plan: make an original theatrical film to be completed in less than a yea...

An anime-inspired campaign by anime director Mads Broni and Passion Animation Studios

MullenLowe partnered with Danish director Mads Broni and Passion Animation Studios to create an anime-inspired advertisement for one of UK's favorite restaurant chains, Wagamama. Called Bowl to Soul, it's based on the brand's affiliation with Japanese food and its founding philosophy that food not only feeds our heart, it "feeds our soul." The ad shows this by demonstrating Wagamama food's restore sensation. Upon taking her first taste, the ad's heroine tumbles into a magical land filled with streaming ramen rivers, ondulating coriander fields and spice fireworks. That doesn't sound bad. And it's a good way to appeal to those of us who haven't appreciated the magic of "your food will come out when it's ready." Created by a mixture of hand-drawn and computer-illustrated artwork, the film brings together a wide range of modern, diverse images and characters, each frame being a unique illustration influenced by anime art.
