Justice/female lead

Looking for a anime where a woman has strong beliefs in justice, doesn't have to be a main leader but I prefer shows where women are dominant

Shows I've watched which I believe have strong female leads include:

Mai Hime
Mai Otome
Claymore
Xenosaga
Fate/stay night

Hm ... i believe you could give Blood+ a go. It has a strong(?) female lead who is definitely on the "good" side. Adventure/fantasy/action

For something not serious you could try Seto no Hanayome - comedy with a bit of romance. Mermaid's chivalry !

Chrno Crusade probably fits the bill. Adventure/fantasy/action

Nanoha series definitely fit the request, especially the first two seasons.

Seirei no Moribito and Saiunkoku Monogatari are fantasy dramas that fit your requirements well. The heroine of Seirei, Balsa, was my favorite female lead character in 2007.

I've already seen Chrno Crusade/Nanoha series, forget to mention them

Blood+ seems interesting and I'll put that on my list along with Seto no Hanayome .

Thanks alot =)

I just looked at the list in your signature and didn't see Twelve Kingdoms (Junni Kokki) there. If you haven't watched that, I'd put it at or near the top of your list. While it starts slowly, the story takes off after half-a-dozen episodes. If you like shows where the characters show real growth in their personalities, this is the show for you.

I like shows with strong heroines, too. Browse my siggie for some other options like Noein.

Your under arrest... about two female cops. I would imagine that they are on the side of justice... and I'll let you decide if they are strong

If you want a female lead with strong sense of justice, you could try Pumpkin Scissors.

Does Sailormoon count?

As for other title that have strong female lead on a good side but not necessarily promoting justice:
burn up series
bubble gum series
kiddy grade
angel links
murder princess
ghost in the shell
gunbuster
witch hunter robin
cutie honey series (I only watch Re:Cutie Honey, which is good)

black lagoon -
revvy has more of a "twisted sense of justice"
haha...i think revvy is a pretty "strong and dominant" type of character
plus revvy is just down right lovable....especially when she occasionally speaks a bit of english(and totally butchers it....happens a few times during the second season...completley adorable)

Lol no one recommended Cardcaptor Sakura this time? I believe she's very dominant.

Also, I second Chrno Crusade and Seirei no Moribito.
