00:00Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the waifus who are more
00:11likely to kill you than kiss you.
00:1920.
00:20Ranko – Akiba Maid War Imagine for a moment that instead of smiles,
00:26all maids come armed with weapons, because that's the bloody reality inside this version
00:31of Akiba, where maid cafes slaughter each other for profit and ranking, and among them,
00:36Ranko is the deadliest of them all.
00:45Put a gun in her hand and she will drop bodies perfectly in time to a karaoke beat.
00:50And yet, despite a dangerously high kill count and shown to be perpetually stoic, Ranko still
00:56finds a way to be the most dazzling maid of the bunch… well, sometimes.
01:0919.
01:11Arthur Pencilgon – Shangri-La Frontier The online sphere of PvP can be brutal, and
01:18none are more efficient at wiping out virtual avatars quite like this lethal vixen.
01:33While she's a gaming buddy of Sunraku, and a junkie for lore like the rest of us, Pencilgon
01:38also has no qualms about taking down other players.
01:42With high stats, rapid reaction time, and a habit of backstabbing, there's a reason
01:47she worked her way to a high-ranking member of a guild that specialised in player kills.
01:53If you want to keep your loot, it would be best to avoid squaring up to her.
02:0418.
02:05Misa – Death Note The only thing more dangerous than an obsessive
02:09girlfriend is one armed with a notebook that can snuff out lives.
02:16Easily manipulated, given her devotion to Light, the would-be god of the New World uses
02:20Misa as a tool to eliminate his enemies.
02:24While she's very much a victim to Light's narcissism, she's also way too happy to
02:29use the Death Note to ensure no one can ruin the little slice of heaven she's crafted
02:34for herself.
02:39Gil needs a lifetime worth of therapy, but knowing her, she'd just add any voices of
02:43reason to the notebook.
02:4617.
02:47Minatsuki Takami – Deadman Wonderland Nobody who ends up in the death matches known
02:53as Carnival Corpse are likely to have all their screws in, but this little lady is a
02:58special kind of basket case.
03:08Posing as a sweetheart, Takami is actually as sadistic as they come.
03:13Using both her lies and her branch of sin to ensure any competitors meet a gruesome
03:19end.
03:20There's no feeling safe around someone who, at their best, will manipulate you with a
03:25sweet facade, before taking your life with whips made of blood.
03:3716.
03:38Kurumi Tokisaki – Date Alive She's called the worst spirit for a reason.
03:47With over 10,000 dead by her hand, she's as lethal as cutesy magical space girls come.
03:53With a desire to slay the first spirit, her time-manipulation ability, skills when it
03:58comes to guns, along with frequent psychosis, paints the picture of a crazy lass who is
04:04bound to shoot you a smile, while actually shooting you.
04:07Is she still the most interesting character in the series?
04:11Without question.
04:1915.
04:22Stella – Mobile Suit Gundam C – Destiny Granted, anyone who ends up as the love interest
04:35to Shin Asuka at this point of the series, already heard to be teetering on the fringes
04:40of madness, but Stella is, well, something of a tragic case.
04:48With the horrors of war already leaving her body in a broken state, being forced to pilot
04:53a mobile suit while her teammates perpetually use death as a motivating factor, you can
04:59kind of see how it was only a matter of time before she finally snapped.
05:03Throw in a giant robot into the mix, and things were always gonna get pretty messy.
05:1414.
05:18Ryoko Asakura – The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Even the most pleasant and sociable
05:24of individuals have their odd quirks.
05:27Or in the case of Ryoko, they happen to be a data-integration-thor entity that loves
05:33to stab folks with a combat knife.
05:39As part of a collective of data organisms who observe the reactions of would-be deity
05:45Haruhi Suzumiya, this humanoid interface is unable to grasp emotions, but is excellent
05:51at playing the part of the ever-lonely class president.
05:54Don't let that friendliness fool you – she'd happily end your life just to see if Haruhi
05:59would react.
06:0213.
06:05Lust – Full Metal Alchemist Series As a homunculus that more than lives up to
06:10her namesake, this beautiful lady will poke a hole through your heart after your usefulness
06:16has run out.
06:27Certainly not afraid of putting her womanly charms to good use, it's not hard to see
06:31how she can wrap men around her fingers so easily.
06:35Unfortunately for her, dishing out so much heartbreak does indeed come back to bite her.
06:41But she caused more than her fair share of chaos while she was kicking.
06:4812.
06:50Roberta – Black Lagoon This lady is a special kind of dangerous.
06:56Why?
06:57Because even on an island filled with gangsters and mercenaries, she is still the one to be
07:02feared.
07:10As a former international assassin, Roberta found herself thrown onto the battlefield
07:15once again when the son of her employer was kidnapped.
07:19Don't let the maid outfit fool you – she's a master of combat, utilising every kind of
07:24weapon you can imagine, including fisticuffs.
07:3311.
07:36Kurome – Akame ga Kill The sister of our titular heroine, Kurome's
07:42path into the vicious world of assassination turned out to be a far darker one than her
07:47sister's.
07:55A fragile mental state and tough training led to Kurome developing a dependence on substances,
08:02as well as an obsession with corpses.
08:05Her macabre yet effective skillset found her joining the Jaegers as one of its strongest
08:11members.
08:12She may like to eat sweets and look rather unthreatening on the outside, but just wait
08:16until she busts out the corpse dolls.
08:2510.
08:26Junko Enoshima – Danganronpa The Animation Chances are you won't know that this little
08:32fashion icon is cuckoo before you're already ensnared in her trap.
08:40While originally thought to be just another victim in the mutual killing games, it turns
08:45out Junko doesn't live for the limelight, she lives for despair.
08:50Willing to go as far as to murder her twin sister, and even execute herself when her
08:54despair finally lost her hope, this is one girl you won't be forgetting any time soon,
09:00no matter how hard you try.
09:149.
09:16Bambietta – Bleach Figuratively and literally, Bambietta is
09:22the bomb, in that she's one of the Sternritter's most alluring warriors, and that she can create
09:27colossal explosions with a mere flick of her wrist.
09:31A walking weapon, there's no limit to the destruction that Bambietta can cause when
09:36she's ticked off.
09:42Even more unsettling appears to be the habits she has in regards to her own soldiers.
09:47Apparently, getting down and dirty means something completely different to her, on account she
09:52prefers to slice any potential partners in half.
10:008.
10:02Daki – Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba As one part of the sixth strongest demon in
10:07existence, Daki is all kinds of deadly, able to summon a seemingly limitless number of
10:13threads that she can bind and slice flesh with like it was nothing.
10:26She's also completely without empathy, prone to jealousy, and will eviscerate just about
10:33anyone who irritates her.
10:35The fact she spends her days disguised as a courtesan gives her ample opportunity to
10:40kill anyone beguiled by her beauty.
10:47Her backstory may be all kinds of sad, but any sympathy shown to her is likely to be
10:52returned with a brutal end.
10:557.
10:56Elsa – ReZero – Starting Life in Another World
10:59Don't get distracted by any of her outward appeal, because as gorgeous as she is, this
11:05lady only lives for one thing – tearing out the bowels of her victims.
11:10Something that Subaru is made to experience on a frequent basis.
11:22As he continues his constant cycle of death and rebirth, his ever-bloody encounters with
11:27this beautiful killer keep layering on the fear.
11:31By the end of it, her thirst for exposing insides will have you just as scared as Subaru
11:35is.
11:386.
11:42Rize – Tokyo Ghoul
11:48Picture it – you're Ken Kaneki.
11:50You have a pretty tame life, when all of a sudden, an enticing woman by the name of Rize
11:56enters the picture.
11:57Then soon you end up going out with her.
12:00Sounds good, right?
12:04Wrong.
12:07It just so happens Rize is a ghoul – one with a particularly ravenous appetite for
12:13human meat.
12:14Not only will she happily toy with you before eating you alive, but she also makes for one
12:19of the worst first dates in anime.
12:225.
12:23Himiko Toga – My Hero Academia
12:41As is tradition, every supervillain squad needs that one psychotic high-schooler with
12:47a penchant for stabbing – or maybe that's just Toga.
12:50An obsession with blood and disturbing outlook on what she finds beautiful would be enough
12:56to inspire unease.
12:58But given that Toga can also use her quirk to disguise herself into anyone and use their
13:03abilities, she's one of the League of Villains' greatest assets.
13:07It's hard to tell what's the worst scenario – if Toga falls in love with you, or if
13:12she grows to despise you.
13:164.
13:19Yuno Gasai – Future Diary
13:21One of the most famous yanderes in all of anime, Yuno only cares about two things – her
13:27relationship with Yuki, and killing anyone who threatens her relationship with Yuki.
13:37Forgoing the fact that Yuki is the most useless waste-of-space protagonist in anime, Yuno's
13:42obsession ensures that she is more than happy to bust out the axe if her happiness is in
13:48any way disturbed.
13:50Other diary users, innocents, men, women, children, even Yuki himself, Yuno will always
13:56respond with violence and something sharp.
14:043.
14:08Dokuro – Bludgeoning Angel, Dokuro-chan
14:12Sure, it's posed as a comedy, but can you really imagine the horror of being given the
14:20power of immortality, only for a pint-sized angel to smash your skull to pieces with a
14:26spiked club every chance she gets?
14:29That's Sakura's reality, and it's a bloody one.
14:43Even though Dokuro comes across as shy and sweet, whenever she gets flustered, embarrassed,
14:49or ticked off, out comes her weapon of choice to turn the human boy she's crushing on
14:54into mincemeat.
14:55Either that, or she'll just resort to her bare hands.
14:59Yikes.
15:002.
15:01Lucy – Elfenlied
15:02Vilified, despised, and abused for the majority of her life, it's easy to see how someone
15:08like Lucy would want to take revenge on the whole world for her mistreatment.
15:20As a Diclonius, Lucy is gifted with numerous invisible arms, known as Vectors, that can
15:26slice apart flesh in an instant, which she uses to great effect when she's on one of
15:32her signature bloodfests.
15:34While it's very easy to see her as both a monster and a victim, the one thing that
15:40can't be debated is that she can and will kill you.

16:05Every Single Girl – Higurashi, When They Cry
16:09Never has there been a town filled with so many cute girls that come with homicidal tendencies.
16:16As Keiichi finds himself in a new home with a history of murder, curses and insanity,
16:26he soon finds that his seemingly innocent-looking friends can turn into deranged murderers at
16:31the flip of a switch.
16:33With various overlapping timelines highlighting a new level of insanity to the cast, these
16:39supposedly sweet youths are killing civilians left and right, sometimes with a little bit
16:45of torture thrown in for good measure.
16:52Which of these anime ladies would you risk getting close to?
