Misuzu needs to be way higher on this list.
She unintentionally and unknowingly inherited a curse from another realm and lived without a mother except Haruko.
And where the hell is Mayuri?
Her fate in the Alpha World Line is to die, no matter what. If that's not tragic, I don't know what is.
Totally agree, Misuzu still have the most tragic life and death for me.
No Yomi from Garei Zero nor Chikane from Kanazuki no Miko either?
Well at least the list isn't 100 bullshit. It's even 50% correct.
Ga-rei Zero was an awesome series that not many watched. Totally agree on Yomi.
Yomi should have been no.1 on such list. But this polls are made by the most otakuish population of Japanese anime fans and they are famous for their short and small memories along with bad judgment.
A thousand times this
I feel the same way.
also Inori should be higher,because she had Shu as a lead,if that's not tragic I don't know what is.
Mayushiii ;;;=;;;; omg. why is she not at least in the top 10..
I agree with you. Kamio should be in top 10 but it's under Nagisa.
Also, all Madoka characters too dominating. Kaname Madoka should be expelled from that list, because her fate isn't too tragic to be at that list.
That won't stop dozens of mindless fanboys from chanting "Madoka died for your sins"
Everyones fate is to die, no matter what.
List should also include:
Ayu Tsukiyama - Kanon
Lucy/Nyuu - Elfen Lied
Duck/Princess TuTu - Princess TuTu
Asahina Hiroko - Rahxephon
Yes! Someone remembers Princess Tutu!
So... Fucking.. Retarded... Really, Sword Art Online? That character that was in one episode got to rank 3 on the list? Just shows how short term memory effects 90% of otaku.
Madoka...Madoka...Madoka, I'm surprised they didn't just put the main lineup of the show in here for christ sake
Where is Haruhi, Yurippe, and MikuMiku?
I have yet to see Sawatari Makoto on any of these lists, slowly dieing over the course of 3ep. She then gets her only wish granted while she was too far gone to understand it and then vanishes right after. That is what tragic is all about not Izumi... They only consider it tragic because she was hot.
Even Nagato, Endless 8 anyone? It was hard enough to watch it 8 times never mind the millions of times she had to experience it.
You need to read that part in the novel
Anime character =/= Novel character
You seem to neglect to see the big letters at the top that say.

(Insert post relating to anime and not manga to degrade 18:57, watch as it gets voted up, to boost your ego.)
I usually don't like these lists because people easily forget the past...
#7 doesn't even belong here. Show was too mediocre to even evaluate the characters effectively when the show itself didn't settle on what it was trying to accomplish.
Did all the Japanese that finished Kimi ga Nozomu Eien commit suicide already or something? No Haruka?
Another dumb list.
it's just too brutal man. you may be right. i still feel wounded by that shit.
I really can't agree with Kaname Madoka. I think she's extremely happy with what she did and doesn't regret it at all.
Why is Sachi ranked on the top 3?
Sure, she dies, but she looks like she accepted the idea that it was bound to happen, whereas a certain other magical girl that unexpectedly goes headless horseman.
I also call BS on Saber & Minori being on the list as tragic girls; there are other female characters that deserve more to be on the list.
I suppose you didn't see the last ep of Fate Zero to not understand Saber
Seriously, I can remotely understand Saber, but Minori? Wth.
Yomi T_T
This List is for people with short-term memory.
No K-On!?
Yui is the top tragic heroine. She wanted to eat more cake but there wasn't any left.
Sachi, from SAO??? ...seriously, she was in one lousy episode and even that episode was more or less forgotten in the next one.
Where is Rika from Higurashi!?! She's forced to watch all her friends and relatives die and/or turn psychotic time after time for thousands of times... Not to mention the fact that she is also killed every time, and quite brutally too.
The list is about tragic ANIME heroines.
The shitty Higurashi anime DOES NOT FUCKING EXIST. Seriously, if you love Higurashi you have to read the novels and forget that crappy anime. Please!
Minorin?!?!? What the...?!?!
That was my thought too, I don't remember anything tragic about her at all in the anime.
The tragedy of her losing a potential boyfriend to her best friend and losing her best friend to her potential boyfriend?
And that she was fully aware of it but did it because it was the best thing to do.
Let's just say that while she's always smiling and cheerful on the outside, the same cannot be said for inside her heart.
They forgot Teresa from Claymore again...
Too many recent animes and not enough old ones are mentioned.
If it's out of the public consciousness, it's not relevant anymore.
Because anime is the kind of media that people grow out of.
Speak for yourself.
I've been watching Anime for over 20-years and I still can't get enough.
Seriously, how is Another on this list, let alone on top?? It's a fucking HORROR anime. You don't get emotionally attached to a desposable character like that.
So many non-tragic heroines on this list.
I would have placed here also nia from ttgl
yah me too
and Christina Mackenzie from Mobile Suit Gundam: War in the pocket
I can also add Misa of Death Note
SAYAKA?MAMI?DONT FUCK ME! HE TRUE HEROINSE ARE KYOKO AND HOMUHOMU
in this list kyuube could be a heroine too
Can't understand the lack of Kyouko in this list.
And Mami and Madoka being tragic in comparison to Homura and Kyouko... lol.
