#10: Tier Harribel
“Bleach” (2004-12)
As the only female among the elite ranks of the Espada, she is by far one of the more personable Arrancar. However, don’t fool yourself into thinking she won’t tear you to pieces should the need arise. In her Ressureccion form, she’s strong enough to hold her own against members of the Gotei 13 and Vizards simultaneously, something that can’t be said of her counterparts. Oh, and of course, with every transformation comes a skimpier outfit.
#9: Cornelia Li Britannia
“Code Geass” (2006-08)
It’s probably not the best idea to mess with the Goddess of Victory. Cornelia wasn’t just a member of Britannia’s royal family, she was also a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield in her Knightmare. While her unflinching approach to war might give the impression she has a heart of stone, she is dedicated to her family, especially when it comes to her younger sister Euphemia. Following the tragic fate of Euphemia’s geass indused rampage, Cornelia’s cold exterior began to strip away to show the emotional complexity within.
#8: Freya
“Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” (2015)
The head of one of the strongest familias is a totally selfish lady with an appetite for young adventurers. You’d think having an all-powerful, beautiful woman dead-set on spending eternity with you sounds like a fair deal, unfortunately for Bell, her kind of love comes with the frequent threat of death. In order to push him towards being the best he can be, Freya developed a nasty tendency to send all kinds of monstrous threats his way on a frequent basis. How…romantic?
#7: Pirotess
“Record of Lodoss War” (1998)
What would a classic fantasy series be without elves? Well this particular one has a dark elf that will leave you breathless, be it from her gorgeous figure or you know… killing you. Fiercely loyal to Ashram, she rarely leaves his side during his quest to take the land of Lodoss for himself. Given her lethality as an assassin, we’d say he made the right choice in making her his right hand. It’s not every day you find a gal so in love with you that she’s willing to take on a dragon.
#6: Elsa Granhiert
“Re:Zero” (2016)
Subaru might be the most unlikely protagonist in all of anime, what with the constant dying. Elsa can hold her head up high for being responsible for a fair few of those deaths. She may appear gentle and alluring on the outside but there’s nothing this psycho loves more than seeing her victims guts on the floor. Lovely. Manic in her pursuit of her gory passion, Elsa is a perfect example of how beauty can sometimes be skin deep.
#5: Melona
“Queen’s Blade” (2009)
Not quite what you picture when you think assassin, but then again this is an anime that has never even heard of the word subtlety. As one of the four minions of the Swamp Witch, Melona brings death, chaos and an overabundance of cleavage everywhere she goes. Having no qualms about killing, her immense strength and metamorphic abilities make her a tricky opponent to overcome, heck she even managed to come back from exploding.
Nothing says sexy villainess like shooting acid from your melonas. Yikes.
#4: Junko Enoshima
“Danganronpa: The Animation” (2013)
Originally believed to be one of the fifteen students at Hope’s Peak Academy, her sudden death at the hands of the sadistic remote-control teddy bear, Monokuma, served as the ultimate red herring. In truth she was the psychotic mastermind behind the creation of the mutual killing game. She’s so nutso, she was willing to kill her twin sister and gives herself the most bizarre of executions when her plans go awry. Bonkers to the core, but you have to give her points for creativity.
#3: Lust
“Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood” (2009-10)
The clue is kind of in the name. She’s an artificial being infused with a Philosopher’s Stone, and encapsulates everything that is both alluring and dangerous about her given sin. Her sensual voice, body and nature can weaken any man – a trait she uses to her advantage to further the Homonculi’s goals. That being said, when her target’s usefulness has worn out, they usually end up being impaled by several razor-sharp nails. Unfortunately for her, as hot as she might think she is, Roy Mustang’s flames are hotter.
#2: Raynare
“High School DxD” (2012-15)
What is it about Issei that has demonically powerful women throwing themselves at him? Granted the first one concluded things in a more…bloody manner than expected. Posing as an innocent lady that wanted nothing more than to be Issei’s girlfriend, in truth she’s a Fallen Angel; a rather cruel and deceptive one at that. Complete with black wings and an outfit that screams sin, Raynare’s brief appearances certainly delivered when it came to making evil look sexy.
Before we reveal our number one pick, here are a few honourable mentions.
Haman Karn
“Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam/ZZ” (1985-87)
Adiane
“Gurren Lagann” (2007)
Mariah
“JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure” (2012-)
#1: Esdeath
“Akamega Kill!” (2014)
She’s armed to the teeth, completely without empathy and a bonafide badass who will freeze you to death. How can you not love Esdeath? This buxom commander of the Jaegers lives for only two things; crushing the Night Raid and getting into Tatsumi’s pants. She’s a sadist that commits more than her fair share of unspeakable acts in the most unnerving of manners, but she still manages to captivate anyone who looks upon her. The Jaegers couldn’t ask for a better leader, and we couldn’t ask for a better villain.
