I had never realized how difficult is to find anime girls who have legit white hair before I started researching this topic. Before we get started, disclaimer: this list contains anime girls with strictly white hair, confirmed by multiple pictures and sources. I excluded silver-haired girls or girls with mixed hair like Shiro from NGNL.
I know that it has not been even a few days since I published a post about top anime girls with blonde hair, and here we have another list. This time, it’ll be a list of white-haired anime girls!
I probably mentioned somewhere before that I freaking love white hair on anime characters, whether it’s a girl or a boy. It’s refreshing and cute, and I wish I had white hair in real life, but that requires a lot of bleaching and I really don’t want to damage my hair, so… I’ll have to keep myself satisfied by identifying with some cute white-haired anime girl. 😀 For now.
I tried to make it a bit representative by considering the character popularity list on MAL, but I also mixed in my own opinions.
These are the 10 best anime girls with white hair.
10. Chaika Trabant
- Anime: Hitsugime no Chaika
- Species: Human
- Age: 14
Chaika is a wizard who carries a giant coffin around her at all times. She strongly dislikes the use of violence and is a kind-hearted and empathic young girl who will help allies and enemies like-wise. This naivety and kindness have shown to be often dangerous.
9. Noire (Black Heart)
- Anime: Hyperdimension Neptunia
- Species: Goddess
- Age: Unknown
While you might think that this cute girl is just some random cute white-haired fighter, that could not be further from the truth. Norie is the CPU who presides over Lastation and is the ideal goddess, being hard-working, respectful, and polite.
She represents Sony PlayStation home consoles.
8. Shiro
- Anime: Deadman Wonderland
- Species: Human
- Age: 14-15
This cute albino girl has an extremely tragic backstory behind her beautiful red eyes. The traumatic experiments she endured throughout her childhood made her the first Deadman and caused her a lot of physical and mental pain onwards.
Despite the excruciating pain she has had to endure her whole life, she still appears bubbly and energetic, mainly around Ganta (the main character of the series). She acts as his guardian and wants him to be happy more than anything.
7. Orphelia Landlufen
- Anime: Gakusen Toshi Asterisk
- Species: Strega/ Genestellar
- Age: 17
Orphelia certainly looks beautiful with her long white hair, bleak expression, and horns. This look mirrors something much darker and traumatic – her hair turned white after a series of experiments conducted on her while she was a child, and despite being a fatalist now, she used to be a very kind and playful girl as a child.
She also became a Strega and a Genestellar after the experiments (basically a new, higher race of humans).
6. Lissana Strauss
- Anime: Fairy Tail
- Species: Human
- Age: 17
The first of two Fairy Tail characters (who are also siblings) has arrived!
Lisanna is a mage with quite a painful past due to her separation from her siblings. She is a very ongoing and friendly girl who can easily make friends. In her past, she freaked out Natsu (the main character of Fairy Tail) by joking about becoming his wife someday.
5. Kanna
- Anime: InuYasha
- Species: Nothing yokai
- Age: 10 years (physically)
Kanna is a reincarnation of Naraku (the main antagonist of the series) with only one purpose: to destroy Tessaiga (a powerful yokai sword). Despite being a void, she still has her own emotion and sadness that could not be expressed.
The story of Kanna only gets darker from there, after she begins to question her own existence while unable to do much about it, only to end up sacrificing herself as the last act of her own decision-making and will.
4. Mirajane Strauss
- Anime: Fairy Tail
- Species: Human
- Age: 19
Mirajane has the angel look, does not she?
This S-Class mage is an absolute angel in her normal, human form, looks, and personality like-wise. When turned into her demon form, the looks might change but the personality stays the same. Mirajane will always protect what is dear to her, no matter the cost.
3. Neferpitou
- Anime: Hunter x Hunter
- Species: Chimera Ant
- Age: ~60 d/o
Neferpitou might look like a cute cat humanoid, but she is actually a Royal Guard of the King of Chimera Ants. Her utter devotion to Meruem (the King of Chimera Ants) is shown multiple times throughout the series. It is no coincidence that she is a Royal Guard considering her extreme power, quick thinking, and decisiveness.
2. Koneko Toujou
- Anime: Highschool DxD
- Species: Reincarnated Devil
- Age: 15 years old
Koneko is a low-ranked devil, student, and a member of the Occult Research Club, famous for the presence of Rias Gremory.
She barely shows any emotions and maintains a cold attitude, but inside she cares deeply about her comrades and does not hesitate to lend them her strength if needed.
1. Nanachi
- Anime: Made in Abyss
- Species: Narehate
- Age: in her 20s
The first place on this list of the best anime girls with white hair goes to no one else than Nanachi. Don’t let her looks fool you: despite her fluffy, rabbit-like cute looks she has an immensely dark past.
Even though she had and still has it rough, she is a very gentle and selfless soul.
Which white hair anime girl do you stan the most?
