Top 10 List: Big-Chested Anime Women

I know this post may seem contradictory to my ecchi rant, however it's not. I'm making this top 10 list simply because I hate it how the big-chested anime characters, only get fan credit for being a slut and/or simply having large breasts. So here, I'm giving them credit for actually being good characters and having some substance or just something overly awesome AS A CHARACTER about them and NOT being sluts. By being a slut I dont mean wearing skimpy clothes (unless it's over the top skimpy, then thats too much. But on rare occasion, skimpy/low-cut is semi-reasonable, especially for ninja and the like), I mean the ones that try to seduce every guy using their breasts and the ones whom you see constant ecchi shots of for no reason. They are not eligable for this list. Anyway this'll be a long one so let's get started!

Number 10: The Dark Liege (Nora: The Last Chronicle of Devildom)

As if it weren't obvious, she's the one in the picture with the large breasts (the only female, duh). Now she just barely made this list because of how obsessed she is with her looks and the only time she ever made a self-flattering comment aimed at her breasts in particular, it was in responce to someone elses insult.

So I figured because of that, and the fact that she's like an all powerful demon-lord, she deserves to be on this list. Though she's a flirt sometimes she is extremely powerful, controls a massive army of demons and though she may not look it she's pretty wise to boot. Plus anybody who can put up with Nora's stupidity deserves kudos just for that

Also, I couldn't find a picture of it, but her unsealed demon form is freakin scary! To the point where she almost might manage to make Chuck Norris wet himself in fear...and if not Chuck Norris than maybe Godzilla or something else scary. To top it all of she kicked the main antagonist's ass, eventhough he was a childhood friend of hers.

Number 9: Nel Tu (Bleach)
She's an Arrancar, they're super-powerful, therefore she's cool. She does't dress slutty like Halibel, in fact her clothes are probably one of the most modest on this list...well, this outfit anyway.

Plus, when she's a little kid she's absolutely hillarious and adorable and she actually helps Ichigo and friends when they first get to Hueco Mundo...honestly they probably wouldn'tve made it as far as they had as easily without her. It's almost like she's meant to fight against other arrancars because of her awesome abillity to swallow cero, power it up more and fire it back.
This bit here is just my personal oppinion, but honestly I really like her outfit, maybe because she's one of the only well-covered anime girls and I have a thing for bell sleeves, but I've gotta give her points. Though she does have a habbit of nearly murdering Ichigo via super-glomp XD

Number 8: Milly Ashford (Code Geass)

Again, not a slut and although she looks like a character who would wind up being "all boobs, no brain" she's the exact opposite. She's smart, she's the student council president and knows how to take charge. She's from nobillity, but she's not a bitch

It's hillarious how she always uses her student council president powers to mix things up. Like her event with the love hats and how she managed to turn the search for Arthur into an all-school competition, that's some influence right there. She commands some respect in Ashford Academy.

She's always there for her friends when they need her help or advice and even in a crisis she always manages to keep calm. Plus you've gotta feel bad for her when she's almost forced into marrying Lloyd, ick. I mean really, he's like how much older than her?! Thats gross. So I give her props for breaking that off, following her dream and getting to succeed. All without flaunting her breasts! See? All you stupid sluts, it can be done without being a whore.

Number 7: Kasuga (Sengoku Basara)

I would've put her higher on this list...if it weren't for her freakishly low-cut v-neck outfit and the occasional orgasm-looking scenes when she gets complimented by Kasuga. But hey, she's in love with him and since she's never slutty at any other time I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say that the creators just came up with a really strange way of portraying her love.

Main reason though: She's a freaking ninja! And not an annoying ninja, she's a cool ninja, her action sequences are awesome...especially with throwing kunai. And she's got some attutude as well, which you need with an outfit like hers. She's also loyal, no matter how many times somebody suggests that she has a relationship with Sasuke, she remains loyal to Uesugi Kenshin and her love for him, which I personally think is adorable and I like characters with a good love story behind them, it also gives them substance, something required to be on this list.

Number 6: Tsubaki Nakatsukasa (Soul Eater)

Lemme just start off by saying her outfit is kick-ass, its completely awesome. I have to give her such credit for being able to put up with Black Star all the time, much less resonate with him. I genuinely pity her for that.

Most of all though, she can turn into a multitude of weapons, thats just awesome, especially her Demon Blade form, and her complete personallity change when she goes to kill her brother was just awesome and it prooves she's not a passifist like she initially lets on to be and that she can kick some ass.

And unlike a lot of characters with horrible childhood family problems, she doesn't get all whimpy when confronted with her past, she takes the bull by the horns and wrestles it head-on. Honestly, she could beat the living daylights out of Black Star, and I really don't see why she doesn't at a lot of points
Number 5: Rangiku Matsumoto (Bleach)
Sorry any of you who think Orihime should've gotten this spot instead of Rangiku, but Rangiku is awesome, and Orihime is annoying and has "Useless Female Protagonist Sydrome" like Sakura of Naruto, Yukimura of Hakuouki Shinsengumi Kitan and a bunch of others. So Rangiku gets this slot.

Anyway, though she does tease Toshiro from time to time, it's not really in a sexual way, its just for fun and the only time she talks about her breasts being awesome is for a joke.

She serves as great comic relief, especially when she's drunk, but she's also a good character. She's serious when she needs to be and unlike Orihime she's useful. Not only is she useful but she's high-ranking, she's a Lieutenant, one of the lieutenants that gets a fair amount of screen time actually. She also has a slightly explored background story, giving her more character depth and a little more interest.

Number 4: Temari (Naruto Shippuuden)

It's probably mostly Temari's bad-ass attitude with just enough sadism to make her cool, not scary, that gets her on this list. Again, she's a ninja, thats points in itself, she dresses respectfully (the fishnet is win) and she has a giant freaking fan!

She can level trees with just one swipe of her fan! That's freaking awesome is it not? Her attitude in her battle with TenTen is awesome in part one, and unlike Kankuro, she doesn't show any fear towards Gaara. She was ready to take on opponents she knew were stronger than her to save Gaara.

Her "relationship" (you know there's something) with Shikamaru is cute, they fit well together and it's made obvious several times that she likes him and vice versa, and like I mentioned before, I enjoy characters with love stories attatched, it makes them seem more human and believable, not shallow like some more 2-D characters. She's tomboyish, she's sassy, she's spunky, I would put her higher but her character isn't developed (not in the perverted way -.-) quite enough as I liked for the higher ranking characters.

Number 3: Kallen Kouzuki (Code Geass)

She's bad-ass, she's tomboyish, she's spunky, she lead a rebel group for a time, she's an expert Knightmare pilot! Kallen is freaking awesome and while some people may argue she's a slut and shouldn't be on this list, I say different in that she never purposely did anything slutty. I feel horrible for her when she had to wear that stupid bunny-suit, blech.

She was such an amazing Knightmare pilot that high-ranking pilots of Brittania feared her. Her abillities were key in so many, if not every battle the Black Knights were in. If it weren't for her and Ohgi the Black Knights wouldn't even exist in the first place.

She does all this withou a man behind her, this is all her own strength and her intense desire to avenge her late older brother Naoto. Plus she always piloted the coolest Knightmares and the most difficult with ease.

Again, I give her points for the small love-affair she had going on with Lelouch, especially after she was the only one that knew he was Zero...and when she fell on top of him when they moved to the Chinese Federation, that was so kawaii!!! Mega points for getting up the courage to kiss Lelouch. ...Although some of those points (the ones that would've gotten her second place) are taken away when she betrays Lelouch.

Number 2: Tsunade (Naruto)
Everybody had to see this one coming right? I mean who in their right mind would make a Top 10 List of busty anime women without Tsunade? So what the criteria here is being an awesome character, she fits that too!

She's the freaking Hokage for Gods sakes ok?! How much power do you need before you're considered awesome? That and she's a Sannin, she nearly killed Jiriyah one time for peeping and her punches can level forests! She can heal right in the middle of the battle field and still has chakra to fight. Oh, and she's 50 and she looks like that ok? So much for Olay skin products, all she needs is her jutsu and she looks 30yrs younger (and she loves the skin she's in *ba dum bum*) She's also one of the only people who can wear that necklace of death without dying via some tragic circumstance.

Adding to her awesomeness as a character is her backstory, and the fact that after meeting Naruto, she can face it with strength, the only resudual weakness from it being her hemophobia (fear of blood) which is actually sort of strange considering she's a medical ninja.
Number 1: Kukaku Shiba (Bleach)
That's right, Kukaku, I bet nobody was expecting her. She's always a forgotten Bleach character but she's kick-ass...litterally. Everytime Ichigo and Ganju are bbeing stupid, they get their asses handed to 'em on a silver platter by this chick right here.
She's crrraaazzzy, no sexual ecchi moments, she's a solid 3-Dimentional character with a backstory, how she lost her older brother to Rukia when he got posessed by a Hollow. She has a Katana, a prosthetic arm and she's a master pyrotechnic. How is that not freaking awesome? Plus she's mad-creative as far as her houses go. I take it she's not too concerned with staying hidden...then again with fighting skills like that and fireworks galore, why would you be?
This list is about the underdogs, it's about giving busty anime girls credit for things other than being busty and Kukaku definately fits those. She's not a slut, and honestly, who remembers her after the Rescue Rukia Arc? Sadly she's just thrown away and forgotten for anything other than fan-made ecchi pics.
Hopefully this list has shown a side of the top-heavy anime women that maybe not eveybody has considered before. And just like everyone else, they deserve some recognition for their character traits alone. *Applause for these 10 characters*. I'll be doing more of these Top 10 Lists in the future, so until then, read, comment, follow, enjoy.
