Hot Chick with a Sword: Difference between revisions

Line 47:

* Himari from ''[[Omamori Himari]]'' fits partially: Hot chick, uses (usually) a sword (and is so far the only one to use one), sole mission is to protect protagonist Yuuto. Also, their first meeting leaves it rather ambiguous if she's friend or foe, even through they don't fight. Still, she's part of the main cast (and even the title) and in general an rather unusual example of this trope.

* Sakura from ''[[Tokko]]''. Kureha [[Dual-Wielding|dual wields]] daggers.

* ''[[Bleach]]'': [[Tite ~~Kubo|~~Kubo]] likes creating female warriors that can fit under this trope. Some of the more obvious examples include [[Lightning Bruiser|Soi Fon]], [[Dark Action Girl|Tia Haribel]], and [[Ms. Fanservice|Rangiku Matsumoto]]. However, just to drive the point home, Kubo once did a [[Fan Service|Bleach on the Beach special]] which put every female character (and several male characters) he could get away with into skimpy swimwear - while he clearly wants his cast to be viewed as either hot or cute, not all of them fit under this trope.

* ''[[To Aru Majutsu no Index]]'' has Kaori, who has a [[BFS|really big katana]], and [[Stripperific|not a lot of clothes]].

* ''[[To Aru Majutsu no Index]]'' has Kaori, who has a [[BFS|really big katana]] and the skills to make good use of it (and [[Stripperific|not a lot of clothes]]).

* Ryoko in ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]'' is a hot chick with a [[Laser Blade|laser sword]]. In the first OAV episode, her [[Early Installment Weirdness|using it against Tenchi]] causes the destruction of his high school; in later episodes, she isn't afraid to use it against extremely powerful opponents to defend Tenchi.

In the first OAV episode, her [[Early Installment Weirdness|using it against Tenchi]] causes the destruction of his high school; in later episodes, she isn't afraid to use it against extremely powerful opponents to defend Tenchi - alas, [[The Worf Effect]] usually keeps her from being effective. In the TV continuity, she's more consistently effective with her laser sword.

* Shigure of ''[[Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple]]'' is known as "The Master of All Weaponry" (and indeed, can use almost ANYTHING effectively as a weapon, from shuriken to ribbons to ''wooden spoons''!), but her trademark weapon is a katana left to her by her father.

* [[Kurohime]] when using the [[BFS|Black God Tree Sword]] {{spoiler|or [[Laser Blade|the Ultimate Sword.]]}} [[Dark Action Girl|Yashahime]] is also this and [[Lady of War]] ''[[One-Winged Angel|most]]'' of the time. When she's not being [[Equippable Ally|the hot chick who turns into a sword,]] Sword also qualifies.

* The title character of ''[[Cutey Honey]]'' in her fighting form.

* ''[[Queen's ~~Blade|Queens~~ Blade]]'' is all about this, featuring every variety of Hot Chick with every variety of sword, among other weapons. [[Heroes Prefer Swords|Naturally the main heroine wielded one.]]

* [[Determinator|Sayaka Miki]] of ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]''. Complete with [[Zettai Ryouiki]] and a cape.

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko|Tsubaki]] from ''[[Soul Eater]]'' could be partially considered an example, as she is a hot chick who can [[Empathic Weapon|turn INTO a sword]].

Line 61:

* Ayano Kannagi from ''[[Kaze no Stigma]]''.

* Haruka Tenoh aka [[Tomboy Princess|Sailor Uranus]] from ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' can use her talisman, the [[Space X|Space Sword]], as an actual weapon, or in her [[Special Attack]] ''[[Calling Your Attacks|"Space Sword Blaster"]]''.

* Shizuki Kumiko from ''Gekkoh'', a ''[[Mafia Princess|Yakuza schoolgirl]]'' on a mission revenge, who is a deadly sword-fighter and ''[[Ms. Fanservice|smoking hot]]''. Fortunately, she usually uses a wooden sword.
