Plunderer, a battle fantasy serialized in Monthly Shonen Ace and scheduled for an anime adaptation, is the work of the creator of Sora no Otoshimono. Sora no Otoshimono is known for its cute characters, and Plunderer, of course, also features adorable girls. So, I've ranked the cutest female characters in Plunderer, based on my own personal opinion!
Cuteness Ranking: No. 1: Rean-May
A soldier in the Arsia National Army serving in the town of Homhou. His rank is sergeant. He has a kind personality and a strong will to stand by those in need, making him well-liked by the townspeople. She worries about her short skirt and aims to become an officer so she can lengthen it. She has many gaps and often has her underwear seen by many people, but when it comes to combat, she unleashes powerful kicks without worrying about panty shots. The count is based on the number of people she has saved.
Here's the key!
She's a girl with many gaps, and she's the one who receives as much humiliation as the heroine, Hina. She has a kind personality and often plays a supporting role. Her charm lies in her lovable, devoted, and slightly foolish side. Her feminine side, such as worrying about her weight and figure, and worrying about panty shots, is what makes her so girly. I feel like she's more of a heroine than a heroine.
Cuteness Ranking: No. 2 "Hina"
Hina is the heroine of Plunderer, and in some ways, it's no exaggeration to call her the protagonist. Following her mother's will, she embarks on a journey to find the best ace pilot. The story begins when she meets the protagonist, Licht, and is sexually harassed by him. While she may seem like a soft-spoken, fragile heroine, she's actually quite strong-willed, and in the second half of the story, the roles of the sexually harassed are reversed. The count is based on the distance walked.
Here's the key point!
She's a gentle and soothing character, but she also shows inner strength at times. She's a true heroine, often helping others and assisting the protagonist. Perhaps because she's traveled alone for many years, she also displays unparalleled resilience and inner strength in survival situations. In fact, she's actually quite mentally strong...or rather, too strong, which is why she's ranked second.
Cuteness Ranking: 3rd Place: Nana
Nana is the owner of a traveling bar who travels around and keeps Licht busy. She's a dependable, well-endowed woman, but she's actually one of the top ace pilots created 300 years ago. Her ability is time travel, with a limited number of attempts, and she sends Jail Mardog and his companions back in time. There, Jail meets Nana when she was still a child.
Here's the key point!
Nana, the tanned, well-built, dependable older sister, is charming, but Loli Nana, who appears 300 years ago, is also adorable. While she still behaves like a young child, her sadness over her cruel fate is somehow ephemeral, making her character appear quite different after the prequel arc. While the heroine, Hina, appears weak but is strong on the inside, Nana is the opposite; she appears like a dependable older sister but is fragile on the inside. I'd really like to give her first place.
Cuteness Ranking: Fourth Place: "Charles de Berkut Alcia XI"
The young emperor of the Kingdom of Alcia, the pinnacle of Alcia's power. Despite his young age, he behaves like a tyrant, but also possesses the dignity of a king. However, that's just his public face. His true identity is a young girl in love with Alexandrov, and he only shows his true self in front of him. Despite his young age, he seems to have a clear head, and he overlooks the fact that Alcia is currently being controlled by special agents. He believes that this situation cannot continue, but he also believes that he cannot allow the people to suffer. She's a kind-hearted lolita with undoubtedly the makings of a king...
Here's the key point!
She gives off a completely different impression from her first appearance, so we had high hopes for her future success. However, she is assassinated by special agents shortly after her first appearance. We thought she was just a nasty kid, but in fact, that wasn't the case at all. Just when we thought she had changed her mind, she's assassinated without a word... She's a truly sad character, but we're not certain she's dead yet. She shouldn't die.
Cuteness Ranking: 5th Place: "Haz Wahrheit"
A female captain in the Special Forces. She pursues Richt, but fails repeatedly. However, her goal is to persuade Richt to return to the Special Forces and stop the advance of the Kagekaze. In the end, she opens up and persuades Richt, but in reality, she and her subordinates are also among the Special Forces' most vulnerable, and ultimately, they, along with Richt, are deceived and betrayed. She joined the Special Forces at a young age because her parents were sent to the Abyss because of her actions, but the members of the Special Forces are all people from similar backgrounds. The count is the number of times you wish you could disappear.
This is the key point!
While the Special Forces are often thought of as a ruthless, scum-free unit, there are actually many different types of people among them, and some actually fight based on their own beliefs. She has a cute side, such as being obsessed with the legendary ace pilot Licht and asking for his autograph, but it seems that her personality led to her being cut off by the Special Forces.
Cuteness Ranking: Special Edition "Juil-chan"
Juil Mardog disguises himself as a woman to infiltrate the royal capital. His beauty captivates men everywhere, but he finds this a completely undesirable method, even feeling that punching him would be quicker. But he is a man.
[Plunderer] Cuteness Ranking Summary
I've compiled a ranking of the cuteness of Plunderer's female characters, based on my own personal opinion. The illustrations are beautiful and the characters are all cute, but the story is full of sudden twists and turns, with characters sometimes meeting unexpected endings and sometimes not, so it's never boring to read. It might be a good idea to read the manga before the anime airs. And of course, the anime is also exciting. The Plunderer anime will begin airing in 2020!
