Lots of hard work gets put into these lists. So if you like the list, please help recommend it! Comments and follows are tremendously appreciated as well!
:::: ::::
“Although she doesn't get along with people very well Kanoko considers herself a perfect "observer". Her hobby is observing the students in her third year junior high class and keeping a journal of the classroom drama…”
If there was an award for badass shoujo leads, Kanoko would win first place hands down. She’s literally so smart at what she does, and how she uses her knowledge is just unmatched. worth the read guaranteed!
:::: ::::
“…Kanoko has now entered Takara no Tani High School with her middle school friend, Tsubaki Haru. Kanoko hasn't lost her knack for keen observation, however…she becomes the “Strategist” for the Cultural Affairs Department and somehow ends up joining the Newspaper Club...?!”
Sequel; sprinkled with more development, progress, and plot!! Love Kanoko so much. She never loses her cool, and I live for her strength so damn much!
:::: ::::
“Short comedy spin-off for Koi Dano Ai Dano, follow the quirky adventures of Kanoko and her high school classmates and teachers!”
Spin off of the one above! Not quite as good as the actual stories, but still a very fun read to have on the side.
:::: ::::
“Hinata Saotome is suddenly asked out by En Shinohara, a gorgeous boy in her grade. What she doesn't know, though, is that his hobby is cross-dressing!…”
All time fav shoujo to date!! Such an amazing series with strong, great, and uniquely done leads. Includes LGBTQ+ characters as well!! It really needs to be showcased more. (Full comment’s under topics if you’d like to see my love for the series fully.)
:::: ::::
“Hina has repeatedly transferred schools due to her father's job, and has always dreamed of a normal high-school life…”
THIS. All the leads in here are freaking amazing, they’re literally the definition of badass and smart. Every chapter’s also so addicting to read! You never know what’ll come next, and it’s just so much fun to see what they’ll do.
:::: ::::
“Fifteen-year old Ishimori Uka is a very shy girl that can't stand being in front of someone. One day she meets a boy on the streets who's just as refreshing as lemon soda…”
UKA’S SO DAMN BEAUTIFUL. Her development and growth are just so incredibly powerful and inspiring!??! Seriously she makes me want to better myself. This series is severely and PAINFULLY underrated.
:::: ::::
“Teru, a poor and kind girl, recently lost her older brother, her only remaining relative. Before he died he gave her a cell phone connecting her to a person he said would support her if ever he were unable to…”
Teru is a top tier shoujo inspiration. In the face of chaos, she’s calculating and hella smart. She knows how to fight too. She also wins over people in her own unique way, love her so much!!
:::: ::::
“Although a truly gifted hairstylist, Kiri Koshiba has no interest in using her talent to pursue fame and fortune, unlike the three popular boys in the "Scissors Project" at school…”
Kiri was such a cool lead to look up to! She’s super cool, calm, and collected, and never lost her personality even when she fell in love. A story I always recommend for a continuously composed, badass lead!!
:::: ::::
“Chouko Manaka is the next heir to the prestigious Manaka family. Now she is entering high school and she has had enough with being surrounded by bodyguards, who have prevented her from making any friends…”
There is so much hate for this and I just can’t understand why. Chouko’s literally a boss queen, and her intelligence is just top tier! The fact that she has a harem is just badass as well.
