I'm looking for a manga with a tough girl--meaning she can take care of herself, or she doesn't cry immediately or is so pathetic people have no choice but to take pity on her and help--in which she goes back in time for some reason and ends up in medieval Japan. I don't mind if it ends up not romance or not, but if it is, I'd like the MC t o not to fall head over heels with the love interest and go into a 180 personality turn into a "I can't live without you" type of person. Plot would be a plus!

Thank you!

kanata kara this is travel to alternate world but its still worth the read. She is kinda 'emotional' at first but its only the first chapter and she gets so much stronger.
anatolia story this is where she travels to the mediteranian. also kinda weak at the begining but she gets better.

hope this is helpful

Not sure if it's what you're looking for but you could always try Sengoku Strays

sengoku strays

I definitely second Saver!!!

Kurozuka This one is epic man... really epic. There is a mix of medieval and sci fi.
The anime is great to... There is no time travel the way you mean maybe... but the story takes place in different times and eras

You could try Crazy Girl Shin Bia. It has about everything you've asked for.

Only one I can think that hasn't already been mentioned is Ryo
