World of Action Girls: Difference between revisions

Line 19:
* ''[[Claymore]]'' actually tries to justify this trope. Women inherently make better Claymores than men, because men are more likely to become Awakened Beings.
* ''[[Dog Days]]'' plays with this while [[The Hero]] is a male there are more named Female [[Action Girl|warriors]].
* ''[[El -Hazard: The Magnificent World]]'' features a cast of magically empowered females, with Fujisawa as its only noteworthy male since Makoto and Jinnai are a pair of [[Ordinary High School Student|highschoolhigh school students]] with no combat ability whatsoever. There's the three priestesses for starters: [[Playing with Fire|Shayla]] [[Dark-Skinned Redhead|Shayla]], [[Blow You Away|Afura]] [[Brainy Brunette|Mann]], and [[Making a Splash|Miz]] [[Christmas Cake|Mishtal.]] Along with the demon god [[Person of Mass Destruction|Ifurita]], who's a biological super weapon. And finally, there's [[Apocalypse Maiden|Kalia]], easily the most powerful being in all El -Hazard.
** In addition, both of the key positions of power are held by women: with [[Everything's Better with Princesses|Rune Venus]] as Roshtaria's benevolent ruler, and [[Evil Is Sexy|Diva]] as the enigmatic queen of the Buggrom Empire. Even the Eye of God, which floats above El -Hazard, can only be activated by the two princesses of the royal house of Roshtaria.
* In ''[[Freezing]]'',the only combatants are females. Though most are really [[Faux Action Girl|Faux Action Girls]]
* The [[One-Gender Race|Solonoids]] from [[Gall Force]].
Line 38:
** Except the last part of the Sisters arc, as the main heroine needs to ask a guy to help her defeat the [[Big Bad]], but [[Justified]] since that's how it was on the original series.
* In ''[[Change 123]]'', the focus is mostly on female-on-male (with female usually being more skillful) or female-on-female fights, with the latter ones being more prevalent from the chapter 20 onwards. (And, on top of that, there is also an all-female ninja clan!) This creates an interesting situation during the sport festival, when the teachers insist that girls should be the "riders" on the "battle on horses", believing that they would be less aggressive than boys, not knowing that there is a badass girl in each of the three teams, one of them being also a [[Blood Knight]].
