Hell's Belles

I know, I know, this is a corny category header, but it describes them so well! These ladies give their opposites (and opponents!) hell, pardon the pun. These ladies can kick the @$$ of anyone they want to.

In most cases, these ladies (despite being secondary characters) are more admrable than the star of the story, if only because they ARE so good at what they do and don't try to be anything less than they are. They can usually steal a scene right out from under the noses of the lead character!

Somewhat standard disclaimer: None of these images belong to me, nor do they belong to the sites/webmasters I stole them from =). These images are owned solely by the creators, artists and/or producers of the anime/manga in question. However, if I took the image from your site and you don't want to share it, please tell me about it and I'll take it down. Sometimes, I have to crop/resize or otherwise alter a perfectly good image in order to emphasize the characters--if you don't like it, email me an alternative, please!

          Lina Inverse, sorceress extraordinaire! She always knows exactly what she wants and will stop at nothing to get it. She tends to be violent, yes, but she really does care.... I love her completely non-"traditional female" personality, too: she eats like a horse and has no qualms about beating up her companions if they remark on her physical stature. (She's very sensitive about being short and flat-chested, although in this girl's opinion she's awfully cute.) And, of course, she's managed to become an incredibly powerful sorceress by the age of about fifteen. She likes to blow things up. (Who doesn't?) One of my personal favorite anime characters.

          Why not Noin-san? She's definetly the coolest woman in Gundam Wing (doesn't have much competition though ^_^). All the OZ people admire and respect her, and she's got great military intelligence. Everyone's willing to brag that she's the best trainer of MS pilots in OZ. Noin is also modest...she was willing to let herself be the second best so Zechs could be number one. Plus she's got great taste in men...no matter what people say about Treize and Zechs, Noin and Zechs would make a lovely couple!

          For one thing Lum is totally devoted to Ataru Moroboshi, the man she loves. She can also fly and project electricity. In the looks department she's great with long green hair, blue eyes, a great body, properly sized breasts, and two cute horns. In fact the only think she can't do is cook. Her cooking has been known to turn people into wolves and split people in two. Besides, that she's a goddess. Lum forever

          Shes cool, tall, brave and kicks @$$. She's the strongest of the Inner Scouts, and she has the coolest powers. She's also pretty and likes to cook. She came from somewhere in Europe, I think, and they kicked her out of her school because she was kickin' people's asses a little too much. She moved into Crystal Tokyo and lives by herself (also pretty cool). Her parents died in a plane crash. She ice skates better than even Sailormoon. She is best friends with Sailor Venus and her oppisite is S. Mercury...

I always found Makoto's independence pretty cool.

After this, the mail I got was corrupted so I deleted the list of random characters and posted the incomplete list. Hopefully Xelloss-sama will come back and finish this for us!
