Nanael is always seen wearing polka-dot panties, which the audience always gets a peek at. Other key aspects about her are the insecurities about her asymmetrical wings and the holy milk she must keep from spilling or risk being banished to Hades. However, just because Nanael is an angel doesn't mean she can't fight. In fact, she is seen taking on the swamp witches minions with her celestial saber. Nanael’s goofy and carefree nature place her at number ten.

Trivia: Nanael gets her name from a real angel in ancient Hebrew mythology.

Melona, subject to the Swamp Witch, and slime girl with a sexual attitude, enjoys harassing her enemies any way she can, making Melona stay true to her monster girl form. However, calling her a monster makes her go mad, as seen in the first episode of the anime when Leina Vance called her a monster, causing Melona to go crazy and try to kill her.

Melona can shapeshift, which makes her even better because she can be any woman she wants, but her most iconic power is when she sprays her breast milk that has the weird ability to melt anything it hits. She technically fights without a weapon, using her transforming powers to make a sword form around her arm. Melona's sadistic smile and sexy form place her on the list at number nine.

Trivia: Melona is the only one recorded with breast milk in the anime.

Shizuka is everyone's favorite Kouma ninja and loyal friend to Tomoe, a girl who left her homeland to protect her while she enters the Queen’s Blade Tournament. Shizuka's weapons of choice are ninja tools and the most iconic part of her armor, a headband with two horns on it. Shizuka was raised to be a ruthless killer; however, she is shown to be more of a realist, going as far to abandon her clan to save Tomoe, who Shizuka believes to be the only savior for their continent.

Shizuka comes in at number eight onto the list for multiple reasons, the first being the fact that she was a beautiful female ninja, and the second is she gave her life for something she believed in. Although it was short-lived, we will miss you Shizuka!

Her personality is strong; however, Risty hates when people boss her around, especially, when they don't realize what is going on. She wields a one-handed mace and shield and is a very skilled warrior when armed with them. She has a signature tattoo that stretches her right thigh. From her powerful ideals to her strong and sexy attitude, Risty made her way onto this list just like our hearts, placing her at rank seven.

She is seen as a kind teacher while being firm with her students, especially when she rated Nowa's performance in battle. Alleyne is a master staff user and is seen as a fierce competitor in the tournament.

Besides Nowa and the other Forest Elves, Alleyne was shown to have a relationship with Echidna, and when they are shown meeting, it's like oil and water with Alleyne lecturing Echidna. Alleyne's teacher like attitude combined with her gorgeous body, make her a fan favorite, which is why she comes in at rank number three.

Trivia: In Queen's Blade Rebellion, Alleyne was cursed by the Swamp Witch, making her unable to leave the forest.

Airi, a female wraith that follows the Swamp Witch and does her bidding by murdering some of the participants in the tournament. Brandishing a scythe and wearing a maid outfit is what makes this twin-tailed beauty a great addition to Queen's Blade. Airi is shown as a calm, somewhat kind person; however, due to the fact she must steal souls from people to survive, it can be difficult for her.

Airi has a fascination for Rana, a young boy whom she saved after his mother was captured. Her strongest ability is summoning ghosts to help subdue her enemies. Airi placed ninth on this list because of her beautiful maid charm making her a fan favorite.

Trivia: Airi is incredibly ticklish.

Echidna, the beautiful Elven mercenary who prefers her pet snake over panties. She is a favored warrior to win the Queen's Blade, and she was first introduced in the anime when she was hired to bring Leina Vance back to her sister. Echidna was seen kicking a room full of men out so she can fight Leina alone. Echidna's sexuality seems to lean towards women as seen by her sadistic and perverted attitude when she fights. Besides, having a fascination for Leina, Echidna hates being lectured or told what to do and tends to be a little more lenient with instructions, especially, from some of her employers.

Wearing her signature snake panties, she is also seen having a snake-themed weapon and a shield that looks like Medusa from Greek mythology. Echidna found her way to number one on this list because of her personality and service to the fans that just keep bringing us back!
