I'm looking for mangas that the main character is a female and has powers or is very strong.
Somewhat like Superior.

Thanks.

If you like Superior, you'll love Kurohime.

Also, Tenjho Tenge.

If you mentioned Superior I suppose you don't mind if she's not strictly the only main char but share the role with another char. So my suggestion:

Vampire Juujikai
Chrno Crusade
Kurozuka
Saikano
Id -> this probably fit, but I abandoned it very early so I can't be too sure.
Kekkaishi -> same as above
Inuyasha -> sort of
Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne

And any magical girl manga lol.

I actually have a thread similar to this, here though it isn't limited to heroines with powers. You tend to see a lot of manga with ordinary main male leads who team up with or are protected by the stronger girl, something I call the 'Shana Syndrome' or 'FFXII Syndrome'.

Here are some of my picks

Orfina
Oni-Gokko
Gunslinger Girl
Crimson Grave
A certain scientific railgun
Peridot
Soul Eater
Sakura no Ichiban!
Shikabane Hime
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria
Code Geass: Knightmare of Nunnally
Chrome Shelled Regios
Code Breaker
Tetragrammaton Labyrinth
Bara no Maria
Tista

Freezing has lotsa strong females fighting and so does Claymore.

Thanks for all the suggestions 😀

I've read
Kurohime (Slightly, really great 😀 )
Tenjou Tenge (Nice, but I guess the art isn't really my type even tho it's gd. Tho I'll still read the rest)
Soul Eater (The manga version > Anime ^^)
Fairy Tail (Really great <3)
Kurozuka (It was mainly focused on Kurou from mid of vol 1 till near end of vol 7)
Gunslinger Girl (Quite interesting, never finished the anime =[)
Peridot (Cool, but it was kinda short imo. 6 vols only.)
Code Breaker (Weird in a way =/)
Claymore (Loved the anime, and love the manga as well. Can't wait for more)
Freezing (Seen abit, and looks really good.)
Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne (I don't know.. But something keeps turning me off from reading it further than half of the first vol.. Will try to continue but.. =/)

Will try and get the rest in, but my Jap is still poor and some of them I rather check them in raw than scanlation.
Female leads ftw 😀

@Iphegenia
I can't find any manga with the name ranetsu no hana =/ Mind linking it for me? Thanks.

Actually it's Rasetsu no Hana, it's a great shoujo romance supernatural kinda a thing but there aren't many chapter out yet, but still, it's a great read if your're looking for one of those manga with strong female lead 🙂
