Whether you’re an anime otaku or just starting to dip your toe in this humongous and exciting world of anime, there’s no fighting the appeal of cute anime girls. Adorable looks and quirky personalities help these cute anime girls walk in and rule over us anime fans.
That’s why I’ve simply listed my favorite cuties from a few of my favorite anime series instead of pitting them against one another.
And once you go through this list, you will get your daily dose of dopamine and add a few series to your watch list just to see more of these cute anime girls.
This new and exciting list is quite diverse. There are warriors, pirates, high schoolers, a mother-daughter duo, and a Demon as well. But the one common thing between all these is they’re as cute as buttons!

20 Cutest Anime Girls
20. Rikka Takanashi – Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions
- Age: 16
- Height: 154 cm
- Voice Actors: Maaya Uchida (Japanese), Margaret McDonald (English)
While she looks and dresses like a goth girl, Rikka Takanashi is kicking off my list of cute anime girls.
Rikka Takanashi is a chuunibyou. She believes that she has secret powers and is a master sorceress. This makes her overly dramatic and equally cute. She does as she pleases, trying her best to live all the fantasies in her mind.
And as usual, it doesn’t sit well with others.
19. Shiro – No Game, No Life
- Age: 11
- Height: 140 cm
- Voice Actors: Ai Kayano (Japanese), Caitlynn French (English)
The female lead of No Game, No Life is a shut-in gamer with pink hair and golden eyes. Her miniature appearance played its role in getting her on this list, but the primary reason is her behavior.
Although a master strategist (she’s won every chess game she’s ever played in her life), Shiro has very little sense of emotions. And this makes for some interesting and cute moments throughout the series.
If the series didn’t portray the siblings in such a perverted manner, Shiro and Sora could have been the cutest sibling duo.
18. Miku Nakano – The Quintessential Quintuplets
- Age: 22
- Height: 165 cm
- Voice Actors: Miku Itou (Japanese), Felecia Angelle (English)
All of the Nakano Quintuplets are beautiful and cute anime girls, but Miku Nakano is the cutest and the smartest of the lot. She’s also one of the most beautiful girls in modern-day anime.
Miku lacks self-confidence and mostly behaves like an introvert. That’s why she fails to profess her love for Futaro Usesugi, despite being the first one of the 5 twins to fall for him.
Her hairstyle and the way she wears her headphones look super cute.
17. Rebecca – One Piece
- Age: 16
- Height: 171 cm
- Voice Actors: Megumi Hayashibara (Japanese), Christine Marie Cabanos (English)
Rebecca is, hands down, one of the sexiest One Piece girls in her gladiator avatar. But as soon as she goes back to princess mode, we meet the cute and warm Rebecca who’s really fond of Luffy.
Her cutest moment has to be her lip-biting after being mocked by other gladiators.
But above all, Rebecca is a proud and brave warrior willing to do anything necessary for her people.
16. Himiko Toga – My Hero Academia
- Age: 17
- Height: 157cm
- Voice Actors: Misato Fukuen (Japanese), Leah Clark (English)
Yes, I don’t discriminate between good and bad. Himiko is a baddie, but she’s a cutie as well, and no one does creepy and cute like Himiko. Her smile is one of the best in My Hero Academia.
Although, it is a bit disturbing that she smiles the brightest after killing someone.
Yes, she is a bit of a sadist and mentally unstable, but just look at the excitement on her face. That’s cute! Right. Right?
15. Yui Hirasawa – K-ON!
- Age: 18
- Height: 156 cm
- Voice Actors: Aki Toyosaki (Japanese), Stephanie Sheh (English)
The lead vocalist and guitarist of Ho-kago Tea Time is one of the sweetest anime girls you’ll ever see. Her love language is physical touch, and she looks so cute hugging whoever she can.
Yui is basically an airhead. She does the bare minimum in tests and joined the Light Music Club, thinking it was about easy music because, you know, “Light.”
But she’s a master guitarist, and her pitch is as perfect as a songbird.
14. Shinobu Kocho – Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
- Age: 18
- Height: 151
- Voice Actors: Saori Hayami (Japanese), Erika Harlacher (English)
Shinobu Kocho is a cute Demon Slayer who can do whatever she wants. Not only because she’s cute; but also because she’s one of the most skilled swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps.
With a cute and bright smile on her face, Shinobu cuts through Demons like a knife through butter. But she has a reputation for giving those Demons hope for life before killing them. And if that makes her a sadist, then so be it!
13. Emilico – Shadows House
- Age: 11
- Height: 135 cm
- Voice Actors: Yū Sasahara (Japanese), Dani Chambers (English)
Emilico is a literal doll.
She works as a maid in a big mansion where Shadows live. And Emilico is a living doll who serves Kate Shadow. The purpose of these living dolls is to clean up the soot left behind by the shadow and be of help to them in any way possible.
However, Emilico and Kate grow closer and start discovering some secrets of the mansion that they weren’t supposed to.
12. Winry Rockbell – Full Metal Alchemist
- Age: 16
- Height: – NA
- Voice Actors: Megumi Toyoguchi/Megumi Takamoto (Japanese), Caitlin Glass/Muriel Hofmann (English)
This tomboyish anime girl is the cutest thing in an otherwise dark and mature anime. Her cheerful and bubbly behavior is the source of all the cuteness in Full Metal Alchemist.
Winry Rockbell is one of the main supporting characters who is training to be a surgeon while already being a specialist in mechanical repairs.
Aptly nicknamed “a mechanical otaku,” Winry absolutely loves everything mechanical. Her eyes light up when she gets something right, and she’ll fan girl over tech in the cutest way possible.
11. Victorique De Blois – Gosick
- Age: 25
- Height: – NA
- Voice Actors: Aoi Yuuki (Japanese), Apphia Yu (English)
This goth-looking girl is the cutest tsundere girl you’ll ever see in anime. With a Victorian dress, blonde hair, and emerald-colored eyes, Victorique looks like a doll. However, do not expect timid behavior from this doll.
She’s quite blunt and harsh, often criticizing others with sarcasm. But, at the same time, she has a certain charisma that helps her win over others.
Victorique can manipulate others. But it’s fine because she’s cute.
10. Yor Forger – Spy x Family
- Age: 27
- Height: 170 cm
- Voice Actors: Saori Hayami (Japanese), Natalie Van Sistine (English)
Yor Forger is the cutest assassin/adoptive mother on the anime block right now.
While blushing and keeping an aloof look on her face, she kills her targets with a certain grace. She gets all cute and cuddly when she’s around Anya Forger (her adoptive daughter) and is easily flustered by her husband, Loid Forger.
But her cutest moments come when she’s assassinating. Just before she kills a target, Yor likes to ask if she can have the honor of taking their life. Call me crazy, but that’s cute!
9. Anya Forger – Spy x Family
- Age: 5
- Height: 99.5 cm
- Voice Actors: Atsumi Tanezaki (Japanese), Megan Shipman (English)
Along with a few others, this cutie is one of the biggest reasons why everyone watches the Spy x Family anime.
Anya is living her dream of being part of a spy movie. Her mother, Yor Forger, is an assassin and her father, Loud Forger, is a spy. Her cuteness was contagious in the manga, and Clover Works and Wit Studio deserve praise for bringing it to life.
From her expressions after reading other people’s minds to her actions, everything Anya does is a dose of cuteness.
8. Taiga Aisaka – Toradora
- Age: 18
- Height: 143.6 cm
- Voice Actors: Rie Kugimiya (Japanese), Cassandra Lee Morris (English)
Short girls are cute, whether they are in real life or in anime.
While Taiga is a teenager, she is quite short- and this makes her look like a child. But everyone in the series acknowledges her as “insanely beautiful.” And that’s because of her waist-long hair and big wide brown eyes.
Taiga is also a hothead. She’ll get mad if anyone makes fun of her short stature. But she looks cute even when angry, which is true for most short girls.
7. Hinata Tachibana – Tokyo Revengers
- Age: 26
- Height: 153 cm
- Voice Actors: Azumi Waki (Japanese), Lizzie Freeman (English)
The female lead of Tokyo Revengers and the reason why Takemichi is doing everything is this cutie- Hinata Tachibana.
Anyone would travel through time, get beaten up by delinquents, and join biker gangs if it meant getting to save Hinata Tachibana and spend the rest of their lives with her.
And considering how much she loves Takemichi, even after their breakup, perfectly justifies why Takemichi is willing to do anything and everything to save the love of his life.
Whether he can do it or not is a different thing altogether.
6. Nezuko Kamado – Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
- Age: 14
- Height: 153 cm
- Voice Actors: Akari Kitō (Japanese), Abby Trott (English)
Meet the cutest Demon ever. Well, she isn’t exactly cute in her Demon form, but she is cuter than most.
Nezuko Kamado became a Demon after the Demon King, Muzan, slaughtered her parents and turned her into a Demon. Only Nezuko and Tanjiro, her elder brother, survived.
Although a demon, Nezuko Kamado doesn’t harm humans. In fact, she helps her brother and the rest of the Demon Slayer Corps in killing other Demons- all while finding a cure for herself.
5. Hinata Hyuga – Naruto
- Age: 16
- Height: 160 cm
- Voice Actors: Nana Mizuki (Japanese), Stephanie Sheh (English)
While Naruto ignored her for the longest time, fans were smart enough to fall for this cutie from day one.
The cutest and most timid character of Naruto, Hinata Hyuga is the first anime crush of many. Her haircut, her Byakugan-powered eyes, and the way she’ll get all smitten whenever Naruto is around- everything is just too cute to handle.
4. Violet Evergarden – Violet Evergarden
- Age: 18
- Height: 161 cm
- Voice Actors: Yui Ishikawa (Japanese), Erika Harlacher (English)
One of the most beautiful anime girls for me, Violet Evergarden, is the cutest thing to come out of a war.
Violet was born and bred in war, trained as a killing machine, and left alone once the war was over. She doesn’t understand human feelings at all. But, after her savior professes his love for Violet, she embarks on a journey to find the meaning of love.
3. Nami – One Piece
- Age: 20
- Height: 170 cm
- Voice Actors: Akemi Okamura/Wakana Yamazaki (Japanese), Luci Christian (English)
Sanji isn’t the only one who finds Nami cute. There are plenty of One Piece fans who would say Nami is the cutest anime girl in One Piece- and I agree with that lot.
The once cat-burglar has the voice, the face, the expressions, and everything else needed to be called cute. Although the post-time skip took her to the sexier/eye-candy side, one can always revisit the older episodes and watch the cutest avatars of Nami-san.
2. Rem – Re:Zero
- Age: 19
- Height: 154 cm
- Voice Actors: Minase Inori (Japanese), Brianna Knickerbocker (English)
She topped the list of the cutest anime girls of 2022 in Japan, and rightly so.
The short hair, the giant blue eyes, and a smile as bright as the sun make Rem the cutest of the twins. On top of her looks, she is super polite and deeply in love with the protagonist of the series.
One of her cutest habits is how she takes care of her sister, Ram. Rem continuously undermines herself; so she doesn’t hurt Ram.
1. Marin Kitagawa – My Dress-Up Darling
- Age: 15
- Height: 164 cm
- Voice Actors: Hina Suguta (Japanese), AmaLee (English)
The female lead of one of the best romance anime in recent memory, Marin Kitagawa is a cutie in each of her avatars. Every cosplay of hers is an instant hit, but her classic look in the school uniform with a black choker around her neck would never be topped.
On top of her various beautiful looks, Marin wins over fans with her wholesome and loving behavior towards her tailor- a young high schooler with no friends.
And these are the cutest waifus in anime right now.
Cute anime girls have captured the hearts of anime fans for decades, and the ones listed above will capture yours once you watch them in action.
