Almost any definition of “moe” includes “stirring protective instincts in the viewer” near the top, and it is no coincidence that this ranking of anime characters fans feel most protective of also epitomises everything that is moe…
The ranking (not actually limited to girls but almost exclusively dominated by them anyway):
1. Okazaki Ushio (Clannad After Story)
2. Last Order (A Certain Magical Index)
3. Sengoku Nadeko (Bakemonogatari)
4. Popura Taneshima (Working!!)
5. Ibuki Fuuko (Clannad)
6. Touwa Erio (Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko)
7. Yuu (Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka?)
8. Yui (Angel Beats!)
9. Kaede Kaburagi (Tiger and Bunny)
10. Kogitsune (Natsume Yuujinchou)
11. Akaza Akari (Yuru Yuri)

I...think it's a little too late for Menma....
What's wrong with this world?
A real man has to protect every girl.
including bitches and whores?
Nah, sorry not in my job description.
specially bitches and whores, because you need to protect them from themselves too.
What about Arisa from Guilty Crown?
I want Azunyan and Tsukasa Hiragi from lucky star,
i hope a girl to marry me and have a daughter just like Kaga Rin.
is any girl have my hope?
Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of their guilt.
Grimdark! Fuck yeah!
i hope a girl to marry me and have a daughter just like Kokonoe Rin.
i'd want to protect kokonoe rin, even thoough she can take care of herself just fine, guess thats y not on list.
The only thing you end up protecting is your virginity though. It's not all bad though.
I see what you did there.
Don't forget protection from STDs !
A few more years and you will be an Archmage.
How about Yuri Nakamura from Angel Beats and Haruhi Suzumiya?
Or how about that one character from Mahou Shoujo Ai. The tentaclemonster, I mean.
When I saw your avatar I thought you were going to ask "Where's Shiina Mayuri?". I can't believe she's in 27th place :<
Aww I love Mayuri I like how she was Okabe's childhood friend and they didn't try make it a love triangle with her and Makise or make it out that she had feelings for him.
Screw this, I vote Lain.
Lain, really? Quite unexpected. She is definitely awesome, but I have the feeling that she is in permanent background God Mode, so protecting her is kind of meaningless.
Her in her bear pajamas was way too cute, coupled with her amazing computer skills. Also, that image where she is in her room hugging her bear after her room has become one big machine, way too cute.
You sir, are definitely right !
Not anime, but you can't help but feel like hugging Ange towards the end of Umineko Episode 7.
umineko anime is bad, and you should feel bad for watching it.
Dude, he meant the VN
where's horizon? she's so protectable
*brohug*
And my Kukuku(Kobato-chan) isn't even on the list T T
I can't wait for the top 15 anime girls you want to kick their ass.
And for Haruhi Suzumiya to be #1 so we can tell her "Enough with this Endless Eight crap!"
Here's my list of extras not included in the list above:
Setsuko - Grave of the Fireflies
Misuzu - Air
Noe - True Tears
Tsukasa - Lucky Star
Yutaka - Lucky Star
Chiyo - Azumanga Daioh
Last Order - Index
Ika - Ika Musume
Misaki - Welcome to the NHK
Yakumo - School Rumble
Tenma - School Rumble
Himari - Mawari Penguin Drum
Mitsuku - Full Moon wo Sagashite
Yin - Darker than Black
Suou - Darker than Black
Togame - Katanagatari
Nagi - Kannagi
Shinobu - Love Hina
Sawako - Kimi ni Todoke
Haruhi (Fujioka) - Ouran High School Host Club
Nia Teppelin - Gurren Lagann
Hanaichigo - Rozen Maiden
Chihiro - Ef a Tale of Memories
Satoko and Rika - Higurashi
Holo - Spice & Wolf
Hinata - Naruto
Young Nami - One Piece
Young Robin - One Piece
I second shinobu maehara and ika
That explains why Hina from Papa no Iukoto wo Kikinasai! isn't #1 or maybe even Hakase from Nichijou isn't Top 10
WTF WHERE'S KYON NO IMOUTO!?
How about Yuzuriha Inori?
The only ones these characters need to be protected from are their "fans"!
With that said, anyone want to protect:
Yotsuba?
Nagisa Kano?
Minmei?
Yuna Kagarazaka?
The meganeko from the Steel Angel Kurumi 2?
Heh, believe it or not, some of the "fans" would take good care of these characters.
Like a fox would take good care of a hen house? Or like King David took good care of Uriah's wife? Or like the big, bad wolf wanted to take good care of little Red Riding Hood?
Ushio is protected by Deus Ex Machina so there is no need extra protection. She may get hit by a car, drown, etc. but its all a dream anyway...
Only 3 I'd care to protect, the rest either I know can hold their own or just don't I've a crap.
I want Kokonoe Rin and Usa Mimi from kodomo no jikan
Rin!!
Is there going to be a season two for Usagi Drops?
If there is season two, you gonna wish there wouldn't be one... Hint: manga
None of these girls have yandere features. What good is a girl if she isn't mad and cute at the same time? That would totally make me want to protect her and even give my life for her.
Akane Tendo. Period.
To protect, or to give a mighty kick in the arse before putting a moko takabisha double in her head? 'Cause she's the only character in Ranma 1/2 I dislike more than her sister, Nabiki Tendo - the "on-going villain" of the story.
My only problem with this list, is that there were times when I actually wanted to HURT Fuuko
All of these have one thing in common. The character is a child, looks like a child, or acts like a child.
And that's why you'd want to protect them.
