30 Days of Female Characters Meme in one

Day One: Favorite lead female character: 九姑娘 Cheng Kau-mui of No Regrets . 巾幗梟雄之義海豪情 She's a rare ruthless, goal-oriented,and smart lead character on Hong Kong local TV. I love her independence and confidence.

Day Two: Favorite supporting female character: 郭襄 Guo Shang from 射雕英雄傳 The Legend of the Condor Heroes. She is innocent but not stupid, kind but not dull, and open-minded

Day Three: A female character you hated but grew to love. Maybe I'm blocking out things but I don't recall hating a female character. There are some I started out indifferent towards or sometimes irritated by whom I grew to love passionately: the best example of this is Relena of Gundam Wing. I'm indifferent to her at first, but her character arc is great.

Day Four: A female character you relate to: Deeba from Un Lun Dun.

Day Five: Favorite female character on a male-driven show: Nyota Uhura on Star Trek: TOS. I think she's smart and knows what she wants.
