By the way, video games with character customization DO NOT count.
Also of course this isn't just about video games, or this would go in the video game section. I'm a person who tends to enjoy entertainment about girls/women/females as characters. Stories in which their roles are important and well fleshed out or better yet are the protagonists themselves.
However, in most industries, female protagonists are uncommon. Hence with the Bechdel Test and so forth. I was hoping for some help finding more. I have my own niches in media that I tend to pay attention to and I may have missed a lot of great examples of female protagonists or "female fronted" media.
I don't care whether it is video games, or comic books, or Japanese or American comic books, or "anime", or "cartoons", or animation from anywhere in the world, or live action movies, or tv shows. I think you get the picture, it is just about anything. What I want, are some female protagonists. I want to hear the stories of girls and women.
Though obviously I'm looking for something I would likely consider at least remotely good. Strong female characters or not hypersexualized are also a help. Whether it be Wendy the good little Witch or Tank Girl or Ruby Gloom or Battle Angel Alita or Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind or Drill Dozer or Mirror's Edge. All are good and the sort of thing that would interest me. Though I might be a bit less interested in something like Twilight or Empowered.
Recommend away and thanks for the help!
