* The prototypical [[Anime Chinese Girl]] is possibly Lynn Minmay from ''[[Macross]]'' (Lin Minmei in ''[[Robotech]]''), although her this is only emphasized in certain episodes. Technically, Minmay's [[But Not Too Foreign|half-Japanese]].

* Shampoo, from ''[[Ranma ½]]''.

* Kulong in ''[[Happy Lesson]]''

Line 26:

* Tao Jun from ''[[Shaman King]]''.

* Lady Meow from ''[[Kazemakase Tsukikage Ran]]''. Yes, she also knows kung fu.

* Possibly Tenten from ''[[Naruto]]'', who definitely invokes the design, despite the fact that her world doesn't seem to ''have'' a China. In the databooks, her favorite food is ''Chinese food''. Team Guy as a whole seems to have a Chinese theme going on, from Rock Lee and Guy-sensei being [[Bruce Lee Clone~~|Bruce Lee Clones~~]] to Neji Hyuuga's fighting style coming from baguazhang, a Chinese form of martial arts.

* Ranpha Framboise from ''[[Galaxy Angel (anime)|Galaxy Angel]]'' has many aspects of the [[Anime Chinese Girl]], including a taste for steamed meat buns, and a [[Leitmotif]] that sounds very Chinese.

* Shenhua from ''[[Black Lagoon]]'', who is often at odds with Chinese-American [[The Gunslinger|gunslinger]] Revy.

** [[Crowning Moment of Funny|"You got that, chinglish?"]]

Line 47:

** The two that ''do'' follow this trope's stereotypes, however, are the [[Creepy Twins]] Yu Fang and Yu Lan. One of them wore their hair in the [[Odango]] hairstyle at one point, and was even wearing a Qipao. And they both know martial arts (a whole lot better than Mao).

* Mei Chan from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''. Although there are other "Chinese" characters (it's called Xing, but it's [[Fantasy Counterpart Culture|basically]] China), Mei is the only one with the clothes and the hair (and a panda).

* Taiwan and Vietnam from ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'', at least in looks. Also, the originally male China in the [[Gender Flip~~|Gender Flipped~~]] art (whether fanart or the doodles done by Himaruya himself).

** [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|China's gender]] [[Viewer Gender Confusion|does not have to be]] [[Gender Flip|flipped.]]

* I-Pin from [[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]] is a good example of this, {{spoiler|particularly once she's hit with the Ten Year Bazooka.}}

Line 79:

* Mele from ''[[Juken Sentai Gekiranger]]'' is an example, though seeing as how ''Gekiranger'' is essentially [[Super Sentai]] [[X Meets Y|meets]] [[Wuxia]], she's hardly the only Japanese person in the show to practice Chinese-style martial arts.

** Then, there's the ''android assistant'' Colon from ''[[Choujuu Sentai Liveman]].'' A Chinese robot girl... who moonwalks. And won't hesitate to hop into one of the vehicles and make some [[People in Rubber Suits]] eat missiles when the Rangers are in trouble. And her (removable) [[Odango~~|Odangos~~]] do stuff, too.

** Lin from ''[[Gosei Sentai Dairanger]]''.

Line 91:

* Li Xiangfei from ''[[Fatal Fury]]'' and ''[[The King of Fighters]]''

* Pai Chan (pictured above) and Eileen from ''[[Virtua Fighter]]''.

* Li Kohran from ''[[Sakura Taisen]]'' serves both as the [[Anime Chinese Girl]] and the [[Wrench Wench]]/[[Gadgeteer Genius]] for the series.

* Given [[Imperial China|the]] [[All Myths Are True|setting]], [[Jade Empire]] obviously has a lot of them.

* Jam Kuradoberi in ''[[Guilty Gear]]''.
