To conform with OP's tastes, here are my recommendations: Ryogi Shiki from Kara no Kyoukai : The Garden of sinners as already mentioned. Yomi from Ga-Rei Zero as mentioned (and you're already watching it so it's cool). Saya from Blood-C. You will either love this or hate this considering you loved Blood+. Many people found many problems with the show but I personally liked it, all things considered. Canaan as mentioned has more than one girl that fits the description. Angelic Layer is an "old" show about doll-fights but it has more than one girl that fits the description and I seriously recommend it. Jigoku Shoujo for the titular Hell Girl. And some others later on. If I were to deviate a bit and recommend strong women but not necessarily what OP described then: Balsa from Seirei no Moribito as already strongly recommended here. Watashi from Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita. It's from last season and the MC is pretty apathetic. It's a good show either way. Nina, Koko, Yuno, Sen also fit your description somewhat and I second those recommendations. Might not be your cup of tea though. And Rei, Yuki and Kanade are kuudere, a bit different from what OP describes.

But there is this one very popular character that really stood out towards the end in a sense of being creepy and threatening as well as strong.

More to the point however is the fact that the original poster was looking for a character who "doesn't get weighed down by emotions and just kicks ass, preferably in a smug/non-personal way." Mai is pretty much the complete opposite of that, and while other characters in the show may fit the bill better she's front and centre a lot of the time. So if the poster absolutely cannot tolerate having a character who gets weighed down by her emotions in the lead role then perhaps Mai-HiME is not a good choice. |
