Strongest Demonic Women In Anime

The anime world is filled with unique characters. Many of these characters are high school students, ninjas, spirits, superheroes, gods, agents, or mech pilots. A large number of anime characters also fall into the monster and demon categories. When it comes to demonic characters, the men get most of the attention, but there are plenty of strong demonic women who also deserve recognition.

In terms of strength, these demonic women generally possess an array of enhanced physical capabilities, but some are also capable of using abilities that are supernatural in nature. Most of these women are villains, but there are a few good-hearted anime demonic women who prefer to help others instead of hurting innocent people and causing widespread destruction.

Updated September 26, 2024, by George Voutiritsas: Most female anime characters are human, but there are several women throughout anime who are demonic in nature. Most of these demonic women have been demons since they were born, while others were turned into demons later in life. Demons are physically stronger than humans, and many of them wield some type of weapon or magic. Some of these demonic women possess elemental powers, and others have the ability to alter the laws of physics. There are even a few demonic women who can wipe objects and other living beings from existence. Hardcore anime fans have a good idea who the strongest demonic women in anime are, but there are other female characters who deserve to be recognized as well.

22 Kanna - Inu Yasha

A Demon Incarnation Who Wields A Powerful Mirror

Kanna was Naraku's most loyal incarnation and was created specifically to counter Inuyasha's Tessaiga. She barely had a sense of identity, but she began to question her own existence near the end of the series. Kanna did not emit a scent or demonic aura, which made it impossible to detect her. She also had the power to teleport herself and others at will.

In terms of physical strength, Kanna is fairly weak, but her demonic mirror makes her a dangerous opponent. This mirror could steal the souls of those reflected in it, and she could then control the victim's body. Her mirror could reflect almost any attack and create a mirror demon that could replicate attacks. Kanna could also use her mirror to create a large black sphere that functioned like a black hole.

21 Stussy - One Piece

A Deadly Clone With A Vampiric Devil Fruit

Stussy is the first-ever successful clone created by MADS, a now-disbanded One Piece faction that included some of the world's greatest scientists. She is a clone of Miss Buckingham Stussy, who was once part of the Rocks Pirates — an infamous crew that included several future Yonko. Stussy was one of CP0's strongest agents and has mastered Rokushiki, a superhuman martial arts style which gives her fingers the piercing power of bullets.

Stussy can empower her physical attacks with Armament Haki and can sense others with Observation Haki. Thanks to a currently unnamed Devil Fruit, she can transform into a human-bat hybrid. While in this state, Stussy is basically a vampire. She can bite into people and drain their blood until they are rendered unconscious. This technique allowed her to take down two top-tier assassins who were using their awakened Zoan forms at the time.

20 Kagura - InuYasha

A Demonic Incarnation Who Uses Wind As A Weapon

Kagura is one of the many demons featured in InuYasha, but she is unique because she is actually the second incarnation of Naraku - a half-demon who also serves as the series' main villain. Naraku may have created her, but Kagura hates him, which is why she tries to help his enemies whenever she can.

Her Blood Demon Art is an extra-dimensional space known as the Infinity Castle, and she can manipulate the seemingly endless fortress however she wants.
