Anime Where Girls Fight With Hair and Breast
Sports anime have consistently dominated the attention of fans, which can be seen in the steady influx of sports anime over the past few years. However, even the most hardcore fans of the genre will admit the inherent sexism in sports anime – women are relegated to (if they're lucky) being expendable side characters who often play managers or love interests to the boys in the anime.
They never play any significant role and are often forgotten towards the end of the anime. Fans who are tired of seeing such sexist tropes and would rather prefer seeing sports anime where women dominate on-screen can have a look at 10 sports anime with an all-female cast.
