Considering what you posted I'm assuming by badass you mean powerful but also insane, right? I'd agree those kind of characters are pretty good but there definitely isnt a shortage of them.

Don't like the "hug" part turn you off, really its more like she got squeezed to death.

>>155910389
I stand by my statement. I don't really care for cute girls being murdered, even if they're insane.
I assumed Overlord was on the more goofy than edgy side, but I guess I was wrong.

More like there's a severe lack of bullied women.

>>155910436
Characters dying makes a show edgy?

It is still goofy, you're really jumping to conclusions here.

>>155910456
>Characters dying makes a show edgy?
Edgier than a show without it, sure.
And I'm sure it is goofy, I just don't really care for that sort of thing.

>>155910436
It's both goofy and edgy. The girl who looks like a genderbent He-Man is so edgy she shits razors so watching her get slowly get hugged to death is quite enjoyable.

>Edgier than a show without it, sure.

Is there some sort of edgy scale where the edgier a show is, the worse it becomes? So how good a show is is determined by how low it is on the edgy scale?

>>155910536
>The girl who looks like a genderbent He-Man is so edgy she shits razors so watching her get slowly get hugged to death is quite enjoyable.
Thank you for summing up exactly why I wouldn't enjoy it. I can't stand shows where they need to make a cute girl horrible to make her death gratifying.

>>155910569
I never said being edgy makes it bad, just that I'm not interested in it. Geez.

>>155910640
>I never said being edgy makes it bad, just that I'm not interested in it.

That's fine, I'm just kind of taken aback that someone would be completely put off a show just because a cute character dies in it. Do you do this with other forms of media aswell besides anime, like movies?

define """"badass"""" women

>>155910680
Yes. Mostly because I've already seen enough of it and it seems more endemic than ever, though it's probably my imagination. If it were something that's utterly unavoidable ala Madoka or something then I'd end up watching it, but otherwise there's too much to be keeping up with that I'd rather stick to stuff I know I'd actually enjoy.

you should watch overlord anyway. Its from the perspecive of the BBEG lich. but hes just a normal jap salaryman that got iseki'ed into his D&D MMO character. Its kind of supposed to be about lawful evil done right. If you cant handle innocent characters being brutally murdered, then go back to watching teletubies. the show is NOT edgy like shadow the hedgehog, but more like ash williams.

sure shes got a fine ass body, but never stick your dick in crazy. chlementine isnt really as likeable as you want her to be. I mean if youre into crazy sadistic psycho chicks. she uses steleto daggers just because she like to slowly torture people to death.
if you like that sort of S&M sure thats the character for you. but otherwise, it IS satisfying to watch that bitch die. and bonus spoiler. her body was never recovered so it is highly likely that she has already been revived somewhere.

pretty much this. blame Japanese culture for that. if a woman's role doesn't neatly fit into predetermined gender roles, she shouldn't exist. just look at... belch... SAO. completely fucking ruined the female protagonist because "married women shouldn't be badass and need to fit to the role of being a housewife". lol
there are some exceptions of course, but the more popular view is that women shouldn't be badass... and if they are, they need to have something "wrong with them". it's so funny

Literally what the fuck are you talking about? Is this a bad attempt at trolling? Anime might have a higher percentage of badass women than any other form of media for fuck's sake. Unless your definition of "badass" requires women to be ugly bull dyke feminazi fodder or something. Badass, tough, or otherwise mentally/physically strong females are incredibly present in anime, for fuck's sake, its part of what got me into anime n the first place, all the female leads and such. Literally what shows are you even watching?

>>155910640
She's not cute, she deserved her death, the show is dumb because there is absolutely no real danger to the main character pretty much ever

Also it's really edgy, in like that perverted jap irredeemable way that makes you feel like nips are irredeemable savages

There are tons. What the fuck are you on about OP?

This. The

If you want a badass female character, don't make her try and point out how "badass" they are constantly. The badassness needs to come naturally through their actions, not through a forced attitude that makes them insufferable.

Well no, nips usually do strong female characters the right way.
As in they're strong because life made them that way or they strife to protect something dear to them.
Not bullshit "women are stronk because they are women".

Topkek.
Anon, you fucking mad or what?
Every knife, dagger and sword primary function is to stab, slashing is secondary.

She targets non-vitals only on enemies that she can afford being playful with.
3/4 Darkness members were one-shotted with a clean pierce to the head, only reverse trap was toyed with, probably with a mace to vagina too.

During fight with Ainz she lied about aiming for shoulder to toy with him: LN actually makes it clear that while Ainz was inexperienced - Clem had no clear shot at taking him out due to his monstrous physique.
After disabling his hand failed - she could either run or go all out and close the distance, making a bet.
She made a bet and lost.
It's not like she lost her head in battle: it's just plunging stilettos in helmet visor proved to be only way to defeat man before her.

>here's your rethorical answer: japan is a patriarchal society.

If you unironically believe this, then you're a retard. Homo sapiens is a sexually dimorphic species. Women are inherently weaker, both physically and emotionally. They are also wired to have a greater capacity for empathy than men, which makes them better at child-reaering. It's not that one sex is better than the other. Each is specialized to certain tasks. Why are female "badasses" uncommon? You might as well ask why flying fish are uncommon.

But fuck 3D, there are plenty of badass female characters, nips even do it better than recent influx of minorities/female superheroes we see in western media.
They're tough for good reasons in weeb shit, not just cuz they're women.
I don't know single nip author that gave his female character any kind of strength solely based on her gender.

I kinda get it. Men have more testosterone and are more likely to be badasses.

Also more likely to be stupid impulsive generic MC characters and degenerate perverts. Why don't you complain about not having enough women with these tropes?
