Cover Girl’s a yawner. Scarlett is problematic. The animated version is pretty much asexual, while the comics version is dating Snake-Eyes, who is as bad a mofo as you can be without being Chuck Norris.

You know, they never actually showed you what he looked like under that mask. For all we know, he might _be_ Chuck Norris.

You are a genius.

Now quick: who is Batman, really? I know he WANTS everyone to think he’s Bruce Wayne, but that is surely just part of his preparation.

God_damn_it, that’s what I get for relying on CTL+F instead of actually reading the threads.

You can be excused, blinded by the hotness of Daria and Jane.

Check these out.

Ah yes. Anime girls.

Off the top of my head:  
[**Soi Fon**](http://www.absoluteanime.com/bleach/soi.htm) - \*Bleach \*(kicks ass, takes names, looks good doing it)  
[**Shihouin Yoruichi**](http://www.absoluteanime.com/bleach/yoruichi.htm) - \*Bleach \*(kicks even more ass, thinks shapeshifting into “au naturel” form in front of guys is a hoot)  
[**Hanazono Shizuma**](http://www.absoluteanime.com/strawberry_panic/shizuma.htm) - \*Strawberry Panic \*(cool, distant, classy)

Probably a few others but these stick out

Aside from anime I’ll add my vote for Maid Marian and Gadget

Speaking of anime girls, I always liked Princess Ayeka from Tenchi Muyo, but I was REALLY fond of Washu, that kooky insane redheaded mad scientist. 😃

I made a post to the wrong thread.

but while I’m here. I wasn’t really attracted to Daria, but if there were a real life Daria who was my age, I would totally be into her. Not so much Jane

Washu is a bit on the old side for me, since she’s some hundreds of years old. In the Tenchi Muyo series, the most popular one tends to be Sasami (who later mutated into Pretty Sammy), partly because she’s the youngest, but mostly because she the sanest of Tenchi’s harem.

The Princess from _Voltron_  
Lisa Hayes from _Robotech_  
Scarlett and the Baroness from _G.I. Joe_ (And oh my, the ideas that get going when you put that conjunction between them…)

And I can’t believe no one has mentioned the succulent Soviet sucubus, Molotov Cocktease! (From _The Venture Brothers_, of course. And now that I think about it, how 'bout Triana Orpheus?)

Also from _The Venture Brothers_, Dr. Girlfriend. If she doesn’t talk (she has a gruff man’s voice for those who haven’t seen the show.)

Actually, I’ve come to ignore how her voice sounds entirely. She’s 100% hot no matter what.

Tinkerbell  
Mrs Hughes (Iron Giant)  
Kim Possible, but the attraction is purely physical, so it wouldn’t work.

Jessica Rabbit does nothing for me. Trying too hard.
