I agree with Kyouko from Skip beat. Also Yona from Akatsuki no Yona is pretty okay.

My favourite would be naakba from dawn of the arcana

________________

Chihaya from Chihayafuru.

Although not my favourite character by a long shot, she's my favourite female character from the shoujo/josei demographics.

I second:
Kyoko - Skip Beat
Hikari - Special A
Elian - The Prince's Cactus
Haruhi Fujioka - Ouran High School Host Club,
Tohru Honda - Fruits Basket

My recommendations are the main female characters of:
Six Half
Superior
Basara
Cat Street
Chouka Kou

-Sei from “Star red”
-Lady Oscar from “Versailles no bara”

-Aya Mikage from “Ayashi no Ceres”
