No matter how old we grow, crushing for anime girls is something that we otakus can’t give up on. All we require is one waifu to overlook all the major plot holes, sloppy animations, and even an unsatisfactory ending. In case you feel I am overexerting, try to remember the number of times you watched an anime just for the sake of the girl. So, here we shall be discussing the Top 10 Most Popular Kawaii Anime Girls Whom You Will Fall in Love With.
For these obvious reasons, anime girls often tend to gain a lot more popularity than the mainstream characters or even the protagonist. From Rent a Girlfriend’s Chizuru to Demon Slayer’s Nezuku, the ‘god of fame’ has always been kind towards female characters, and why won’t she? The voice actors bring these characters so beautifully that not even the divine beings are immune to their cuteness. Here, we bring you the list of the top 10 most popular kawaii anime girls who have melted the hearts of millions of otakus like me across the world.
10. Emilia
The Re: Zero fandoms tend to split into two teams when it comes to choosing the ‘best girl’ of the anime. Well, it doesn’t matter even if most fans prefer Rem since Subaru, the protagonist of the story, is madly in love with Emilia. Much like Naruto’s origin story, Emilia is looked down upon and feared by the villagers for being the white-haired half-elf showing uncanny resemblance with the Witch of Envy.
However, despite all these mistreatments, Emilia has always been kind-hearted to everyone and even stepped up for the safety of her villagers when needed. At the end of the day, a character is all about how much he/she grows over the episodes, and that’s what gave Emilia a special place in my heart. She came out of her past traumas, bravely faced everything that came in her way, and never did she miss acknowledging Sabaru for everything he did for her.
9. Sasha Blouse
Sasha was like a ray of warm sunlight in the dark and gloomy plot of Attack on Titan. Being the jolly, talkative girl who never missed an opportunity to think about food, Sasha was mostly used as a comic character.
Although she wasn’t exactly a prodigy when it came to combat, there has been a handful of epic Sasha moments that stirred our hearts. I am sure that most of us were on the verge of crying during Sasha’s suicidal attempt to save Kaya from the slow-moving titan. She somehow managed to survive, but the happiness was really short-lived as she got herself shot by Gabi during the Liberio attack. You can guess how much the fans love Sasha from the fact that #Sasha went trending all over the internet when she died, and Gabi officially became one of the most hated characters in the history of anime.
8. Raphtalia
Raphtalia was introduced as an abandoned child with messy hair and dirty clothes, but thanks to demi-human’s high growth rate, she soon grew up into an adorable woman whom you can’t help falling in love with. Don’t be deceived by her cuteness; she can easily turn into a ruthless killing machine if it is for protecting Naofumi.
The child-like innocence of her eyes and her unshakable resolves blend together into a character that we otakus can never talk enough about. I just can’t wait to see her character development in the upcoming seasons.
7. Rika Takanashi
As kids, all of us must have imagined doing crazy stuff like saving our school from terrorist attacks, fighting a supervillain, or being an adventurer in a fantasy world. These childish delusions gradually fade over time as we grow up, at least, that’s how it should be.
Rika Takanashi, the protagonist of Love, Chunibyo and other Delusions, decides not to step out of her self-made fantasy world even in her teenage days. Her adorable attempts to make everyone believe her made-up stories are some of the cutest things I have seen in the anime silver screen. She meets Yuta, a boy who shared a similar past in his junior high days and gradually starts caring for her. He later finds out that Rika is still struggling to come out of the trauma of losing her father.
6. Chika Fujiwara
Not all of us have watched the anime Kaguya-sama Love is War, but I am pretty sure that everyone must have come across the Chika dance clip at least once. I am claiming this with so much confidence since I know how viral it got, and even today, I keep coming up with reels featuring the song.
The 1.5-minute clip was more than enough to melt the coldest hearts, now think about the ones who have watched the entire series. She is a bubbly girl who never drops the innocent smile from her face. Not to mention that she is as unpredictable as the storyline of Attack on Titan and keeps coming up with strange activities to entertain everyone around her.

5. Ochaco Uraraka
Uraraka is Midoriya’s first friend in UA High and is undoubtedly the cutest character in the entire series. She definitely looks up to him and cheers him up in every possible way. The way she struggles to address her growing feeling for Midoriya is really cute to watch, and she bashfully turns red every time she hears his name. This easily makes her one of the most kawaii anime girls.
As you can guess from her hero name, Uravity, she can manually alter the gravitational force acting on a body. In simple words, with her powers, she can hit the longest home run ever that will relentlessly go right into space.
4. Hinata Hyuga
Pink lips, bashful cheeks, lilac eyes with heavy dark eyelashes, the description is enough to figure out whom I am referring to. She was the shy girl in the class who fell in love with the weakest student in the class and ended up marrying him as the strongest mortal of the shinobi world. If that’s not the perfect waifu material, I don’t know what is.
Keeping her cuteness aside, she has proved herself useful in combat a number of times, unlike some other character whose name I am not going to take. On seeing Naruto on his last legs, Hinata recklessly jumped into fighting the villain who had just wiped out their entire village. She is one of the most kawaii anime girls. I think that’s the defining moment that showed Naruto whom it’s worth falling for.
3. Rem
As I said before, the majority of the Re: Zero audiences had a crush on the kawaii blue-haired girl, without whom the list is incomplete. Rem was always aware of Subaru’s unvarying feelings towards Emilia but still loved him anyway. Subaru would have given up on this loop of failures a lot earlier if it wasn’t for Rem convincing him to stay strong. She is one of the most kawaii anime girls.
Rem’s life is pretty sad, and maybe that’s another reason why so many fans want to see her happy with Subaru. She had her own dreams of running far away from the royal capital’s chaos and living a happy life with Subaru as any other ordinary couple. Well, as sad as it may sound, some dreams are meant to stay as dreams.
2. Zero Two
I don’t think this character requires any introduction; you all must have seen her in wallpapers, reels, posters, fan arts, and in every possible place. The anime Darling in the Franxx gained groundbreaking popularity solely because of its female protagonist, Zero Two.
What makes her stand out from the rest is her highly unpredictable nature, especially when it’s something regarding Hiro. Well, something so pretty is ought to come with a fair share of poison in it, and Zero Two is no exception. There’s a rumor that anyone who rides into the Franxx alongside her eventually dies after some time. Now that’s a scary thought, but I am pretty sure that the Zero Two magic will still convince anyone to give that a shot.
1. Chizuru Mizuhara
Honestly speaking, in my ten years of watching anime, I haven’t come across an anime girl more perfect than Chizuru, or maybe I am just too much in love with the character to see any of her flaws. Either way, she is someone worth ignoring logic for, and that’s exactly how Kazuya hopelessly chased her throughout the show. Without a doubt or second thought, she is one of the most kawaii anime girls.
Here’s a question for everyone who went through heartbreaks, have you ever felt, “I may never get her, but I won’t stop loving her either.” You know that you messed it up pretty badly when thoughts like these pop up in your mind. However, I really don’t want Kazuya to share the same fate and am really looking forward to seeing him with Chizuru someday.
