Kurokami The Animation

A list of action anime where the main fighting protagonist is female.

The following will be excluded -

1. Magical girl anime. There are too many of them. Besides there is a dedicated tag for them on MAL so they are easy to find. If an anime despite feeling like magical girl, doesn't have this tag, then I will add them.

2. Gender-bender anime. For example, a lot of Isekai anime where a male is reincarnated in a female body and vice-versa.

3. Anime where the protagonists are mainly female. For example, Lycoris Recoil, Release the Spyce etc. There are too many, so deserves their own list.

4. Anime where all combat is done by controlling something. For example, mecha or vehicular combat anime.

The night is silent and darkness predominates in every corner of the countryside or the city, so keep quiet and watch these shows carefully.

Shows in the Shounen/Seinen demographic with female (or n/b) lead or majority female main cast.
See my corresponding stack, Shoujo/Josei with Male Lead. Just found it interesting!

Anime with Korean source 🧋🧋🧋

At least one main female character is physically strong, preferably the protagonist.

Physical strength applies both to hand-to-hand combat and proficiency in wielding weaponry (marksmanship, swordsmanship, archery etc.) as well as ability and talent in a physical sport.

No magical/supernatural power allowed unless it enhances physical strength.

When the anime follows the path of the manga but takes a few detours along the way or decides to change the details and context.
If it makes you go "this isnt how i remember it" then it counts

Because there are surprisingly a lot more than I thought... these are older series

This is a English Dub list. PM me if you think of anything that could be added

Attempting to collate all adaptations of manwha (i.e. comics written by Korean authors and published in Korea) into anime (i.e. cartoons by in Japan).

I've noticed exisiting stacks tend to either be incomplete or include Chinese and/or Korean adaptations. The goal of this stack is to be a unique compilation.

Notable exclusions:
* Lookism (cartoon created in South Korea)
* True Beauty (cartoon created in South Korean)
* ReLife (comic written by Japanese author—despite being in webtoon format most often utilised by Korean authors)

There are lots of aeni being made from manwha, many, but not all, of which are listed on MAL. This would make for another interesting stack.

I am not including sequels or specials—only the first entry in a series.

If you think I've made any errors or that I am missing something, please feel free to DM.
