I'm looking for a manga or manhwa or...well you get the picture with a Strong Female Lead with a good plot. I'm not very finicky about art.

      I just read [Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=24433) and I would like a heroine similar to Prince Johane sister, Magdal. If she was an admiral or military leader that'd be awesome. It's preferred but if you have any great manga like [Tokyo Crazy Paradise](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=275). [Grand Sun](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6523), [Superior](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6685), [Basara](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=264), [Absolute Witch](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=11349), [Saver](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=8077), [1/2 Prince](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=27841), [Alfheim no Kishi](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=19333), and etc it cool  😎   along as she kicks total a$$!  😀  

       Just a strong mentally or whatever is fine too. Like [Beauty Pop](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=388), [There's Something About Sunyool](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=53843), [Skip Beat](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=376), [Koi dano Ai dano](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=48874), [Show Princess](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=23821), [Pansy](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=147), [Red Lion](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=840), [Romance Papa](http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=13354),and etc. Oh..romance, but it doesn't have to be the main focus.

The first character I thought of was Olivier Armstrong from FMA. But she's just a supporting character. Still badass though.
Joou no Hana
Akatsuki no Yona later on.
Hiiro no Isu
Girl Queen
Sleeping Prince
Gar to Oujisama
Te to Kuchi

And I agree that you should use category tags i.e. Strong Female Lead, Female Fighters, Swordswomen etc

Noblesse The female lead makes her appearance in second season and she is strong... but the focus she gets is quite less.

you could try these

Mushashi #9 or 9 Banme no Musashi depending on translation. the main is ridiculously strong, but the series got dropped by the English translator. they only printed up to volume 17.
Alyosha this one is completed
Arachnid this one is ongoing, but it is pretty dark and violent.
W change and Change 2 (Season one and Two respectivly).
Claymore (very violent)
Esprit
Five
Gokusen
Matsuri Special

I second Kubera.
If you're fine with gore, then Shingeki no Kyojin.
And I really recommend Bokura no Kiseki, though it's about reincarnation so "female" depends on the perspective 😀

Black Lagoon was the first thing that came to mind, but it's a bit violent.
Jormungand is in the same vein.

TTOTT I'm so touched!! I checked out all relating threads and recommended works. I've read most of the manga listed(pity my lack of life 🤣 ). Some were new to me. I just read the oneshot Gar and it was awesome. A lot of manga that I love were listed, like Noblesse and Wedding. Now I have to read season 2 and resume Noblesse. It's just so hard waiting for releases. I"m dying with Tower of God. I set for about a week. Thanks!! 😁
