Okay, I've been wanting to get this off my chest for a while, so if you don't like long posts (like Mr M's), then you may want to avoid this. If this doesn't fit into this thread, feel free to delete it. The reason I'm explaining this is to introduce another of my favourite crushes, one that actually showed me that animated girls can be as fun, engaging and believable as animated boys...

Jessie, the Yodeling Cowgirl from Toy Story 2


If it wasn't for this young enduring girl, I wouldn't have become the cartoon crusher that I am today. Especially after the When She Loved Me sequence. I remember loving her so much after seeing Toy Story 2, that any other female character that I came across I immediately wanted some sort of episode where that character would really shine! Mind you, I was about 13 years old when Toy Story 2 came out, and I've changed a lot since then. But the one thing that never changed was the enduring love that I have for Jessie, and how it was her that showed me that animated women are just as fun as animated men.

And I can definitely say that this still applies to the redhead we all know and love.

Thank you, Jessie. Without you, I wouldn't have known Frankie, or even any of my favourite animated girls let alone Frankie, at all. *blows kiss to Jessie*

Seconded. Lydia was a sweet goth kid who was creative to boot. The very final episode The Chromazone (Fox, May 9, 1992) took me aback when Lydia turned out to actually be the Alfred Hitchcock figure. But it was a Twilight Zone spoof. Still, Lydia was truly adorable.

Having gotten my love and admiration for Jessie off of my chest, I've now been introduced to a new female character:


It's no wonder EVERYONE at school admired her! This is Yukino Miyazawa from the anime His and Her Circumstances, also known as Kare Kano. She's a freshman in high school who's young, beautiful , smart and admired by many. But, she's only this way because she just wants admiration like a drug!

Even if she was that way at the beginning, as I continue to watch this anime (I've only just finished disc 2!), I find her to be more admiring and beautiful. I think it's because when she finally realise what she's doing and how she changes because of the male lead that she tries to kill, but eventually falls in love with, that she's becoming one of my newest crushes. She's really adorable.

Why is it that whenever I look at the 'Currently Active Users' page, there's always a guest looking at this thread?

I notice that no-one ever mentions Toaster from Tube Mice. I can't begin to imagine why that would be.

There were no less than five guests looking at this thread earlier. Seems the lot of us aren't alone in our love for animated characters.

You are definitely NOT alone! Prime was my first boyfriend as far as I'm concerned

I feel that I need to go on about Jinx a bit more!

She is definitely one of the best looking characters on the show (aside from Raven and Starfire!), and she does have such a gorgeous voice, particularly in her first appearance in 'Final Exam'. But Mr. M is right about just limiting her to ones that feature the Hive 5 members. At least until 'Lightspeed'. I liked how she was more dedicated to her role as villain than the others were. I especially loved how she looked when she decided to fight Kid Flash.
'On second though... Nah!'

She is definitely one of my favourites that is both bewitching and mesmerizing to look at.

This thread's been quiet for too long.

Astrid from How to Train Your Dragon is my latest favourite animated female. Sure she may be the clich�d feisty female warrior who's VERY easy on the eyes (especially during her intro ), but I could tell right from the beginning that she cared for Hiccup. She's the type of girl who acts feisty because she doesn't want to show that she can be weak. When she eventually warms up to Hiccup during their flight, she becomes one of the sweetest, gorgeous looking girls I've seen.
