Although Naruto is a Shōnen Anime (that features male leads and is targeted towards teenage boys)

Shōnen anime/ manga are targeted towards teenage boys. And it is often distinguished by its action, funny storylines, and male leads. It often highlights the brotherhood and teamwork between characters.

Now we have to keep in mind that building characters was never the show’s forte. but the show still managed to introduce some strong and talented female characters, that became icons.

Here’s a list of The 7 Strongest Female Characters in Naruto

There are most definitely more than 7 strong female Characters in Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. but, places in this list were reserved for the characters we were able to see and understand their abilities. And had an impact on the show and its events.

Karin Uzumaki

Karin Uzumaki

Although she is just a supporting character, Karin has a very unique and valuable set of skills. That she was praised by Obito and Orochimaru.

Her Abilities

  • Massive life Force and Chakra since she is an Uzumaki, which gives her tremendous stamina, reserves of chakra, and vitality.
  • Also since she is Uzumaki, Karin is able to use the Adamantine Sealing Chains. We got to see that during the Fourth Shinobi World War, she used it to destroy Tobi’s giant wooden statue.
  • Healing Capabilities, she can mend wounds and regenerate quickly. she can also use that to heal others.
  • But her superpower is her Sensory Perception (it could be superior to the Byakugan). her sensory ability is called the Mind’s Eye of the Kagura, which allows her to sense anyone’s chakra signature. With that Karin can detect the presence of others, easily track them, and conceal her own chakra from others.
    Karin can also tell if someone is a clone technique or trapped in Genjutsu, including herself.

Grandmother Chiyo (Chiyo-baasama)

Grandmother Chiyo

Among the female characters in the Naruto series, Chiyo is a real legend. She may look old, but her skills and abilities would tell you otherwise.

She is one of the most admired and respected characters in the series due to her wisdom, courage, and selflessness.

her legacy lives on through her teachings, she is an inspiration for the future generation.

Her Abilities

  • Puppet Mastery.
  • Medical Ninjutsu.
    Chiyo was highly skilled in medical ninjutsu. She also developed a technique that allowed her to bring someone back from the dead in exchange for her own life, and that’s how she saved Gaara.
  • Other Skills
    Chiyo was known to be skilled in fuinjutsu (Sealing Jutsu) as she sealed Shukaku inside Gaara under the orders of the Fourth Kazekage.

Mei Terumī the Mizukage

Mei Terumi the Mizukage

Naruto as a show not only introduced strong female characters but also made it possible for them to be (Kage) the head of the village.

Although she did not get the screen time to show it. She has a lot of potential, I wish we got to see more of her.

Her Abilities

Mei possesses two Kekkei Genkai (Bloodline Limit).

  • The first of which is Lava Release.
  • and The second is Boil Release, which allows her to simultaneously use water and fire nature to release a corrosive mist that can melt almost anything it touches.

Sakura Haruno

Sakura Haruno

What people are not willing to understand or admit is that Sakura is no longer useless,
She was useless. I will give you that but that was needed for her development. Because that was her awakening call.
The painful realization that she was a burden and could not help. and that she is way behind her team members was the core of her development and growth.
No matter what your personal thoughts on her. Sakura has proven again and again that she is a very talented and valuable ninja.
If her team members were other than Naruto and Sasuke she would have gotten the chance to shine brighter, but her luck of the draw.

Her Abilities

  • Physical Prowess and Chakra Control
    Sakura had good Chakra Control at a really young age surpassing even Naruto and Sasuke. Also due to her chakra control, she started mastering The Strength of a Hundred Seal, which took three years to complete.
    Sakura’s unique mastery allows her to map out entire buildings and detect threats, traps, and hidden rooms.
  • Medical Ninjutsu
    Without Sakura, your favorite character will most probably be dead
    Other than the standard healing abilities, Sakura can cure poison by extracting it. something which even poison experts like Chiyo cannot do.
    She can also perform autopsies and examine cells.
  • Intelligence: She was able to answer the Chūnin Exams all by herself without needing to cheat. something that Genin were not expected to be able to do.

Konan from the Akatsuki

Konan the Akatsuki

Konan was one of the founding members of the original Akatsuki and was personally trained by Jiraiya one of Konoha’s legendary Sannin.

Konan used Paper Ninjutsu to form weapons such as spears, and shuriken. Also, she could asphyxiate enemies and restrain them by covering them in paper. She became Amegakure’s leader after Nagato passed away.

Konan was so powerful she could create landscapes from paper, and use billion explosive tags. She used this technique against Obito, forcing him to use Izanagi (to sacrifice one of his Sharingan eyes) to Avoid Her attack. her fight with Obito was one of the most intense fights in the show and one of my favorites

Lady Tsunade

Lady Tsunade

Our beloved princess, upon her introduction to the show, she quickly became a fan favorite.
There could be stronger characters on this list, but to me, she deserves to be rated higher. (in the 7 Strongest Female Characters in Naruto list).

Tsunade was the granddaughter of the First Hokage, a student of the Third. She is one of the Legendary Sannin and later she becomes the Fifth Hokage. Tsunade is regarded as one of the most powerful kunoichis in ninja history and is highly appreciated all around the world.

Tsunade’s greatest achievement was the creation of medical-nin and their inclusion into each squad, which improved mission success and survival rates.

Her methods and teachings became a standard practice not just in her own village, but all across the world, not only that, she also invented the Rebirth Technique.

Jiraiya once said that no one could match her in terms of combat and medical skill.
Even Madara Uchiha praised her for her strength and abilities to defeat a clone-Susanoo on her own.

When the five Kages fought Madar, Tsunade did really stand out as the strongest and bravest Kage. Demonstrating power, leadership, and wisdom.

Kaguya Otsutsuki

Kaguya Otsutsuki

Kaguya Otsutsuki, is without a doubt the strongest female character in the whole Naruto series. Kaguya is the originator of chakra and the creator ninja world, is an unmatched natural force that is impossible to ignore. She is a force to be reckoned with, and her abilities are godlike.

That’s why she is number one on the 7 Strongest Female Characters in Naruto list.

Kaguya had all five Elemental Releases, Byakugan, Rinne Sharingan, and her ability to manipulate reality and space-time. She also has the ability to absorb chakra from others, rendering them powerless against her.

It took the combined efforts of team 7 to seal her. The final fight against her was one of the most intense and epic battles in the entire series.
