Lady ebony is so amazing even after everything she has been through she is still trying to stay strong. Its amazing to see how a anime character can encourage me and my friend.

My favorite Tapas series is My Life as an Internet Novel. It was also one of the first series I read. The series stands out because it takes place in school rather than a fantasy series. The characters are relatable and I feel like I’m learning life lessons from them. Dani is the main character and as much as I love her character, I would like to shine some light on Ban Yeoryeong.

Dani was brought into a world that followed every clique of a romance Internet Novel. Ban Yeoryeong is supposed to fall into the stereotype of heroine female lead. Ban Yeoryeong deals with her own judgmental peers and yet she is always there for Dani. Even when false rumors were spread about Dani. Ban Yeoryeong was on her side. She’s a best friend I wish I had. She’s a very supportive person to all her friends and isn’t afraid to speak up when necessary. She wants people to feel included in every group activity. Dani was a stranger to this new world but felt welcome because of the friendships she gained.

I love the protagonist of Sleepwalkers. Faith is tireless, smart, socially-aware, and never gives up on fighting for her dreams. I think she's inspiring because the world tries to keep good people down, but she never stops fighting to be what she wants.

Melissa from Beware of the Villainess as she literally nullifies any idiot within a one kilometer radius.

I love Mrs. Vans from A Wicked Tale of Cinderella's Step Mom. I adore how much she tries to make life better for her three daughters. I love how she's changing the story for the benefit of the 3 girls and how she's trying to balance her kid's social status while helping them improve their relationships and life.

Mabel from “The Daughter Of The Archmage” inspires me through her cuteness and her bravery for seeking out to find her real father and experience a whole new different environment in where they care and love for and treat her kindness. Besides experiencing a whole new environment, she has been brave enough to take revenge on those who used to look down in her.

What about Maya Ione from Apogee? She's scared and confused (in a scary and confusing world) but strength and tenacity help her keep her head.

Tabitha from Vampire Girlfriends is inspirational to me because she is very confident in what she wants and she's so good to Poppy!

Elvia from I Fell Into A Reverse Harem Game is my favourite leading lady. After she finds herself as a princess (the antagonist) in a game, she does her best to survive, adapt and be herself. Elvia tries to rectify the mistakes of the real princess, and asks for forgiveness. Caring, intelligent and strong, she inspires as a leader.

She's not as popular as some of these, but Darcy from Heartstopper. She's funny and bright, even though she's suffered a lot, and I admire her a lot.

Leslie Speràdo/Salvator
she went through so much hardship in an early life and didn't become a psychopath. she is just a sweet and intelligent little girl who wants to have a real family and doesn't use her shadow magic for revenge like a good chunk of people might have.
plus look at this face


tell me you wouldn't want to try harder for this kid.

Evony from Lady Evony is such a strong character. She went through an incredible amount of pain and hardship and somehow found the eye in the hurricane. She plans to overthrow the patriarchy, as she should, and is quite talented in many fields. She is also very pretty and i hope she and the duke hehe

I love Midge from Just Us Fairies. I love how her character's iconic and her backstory is very relatable for me.

Aisha form "I married the male lead's dad"

She is not perfect but she show love for a child that is not hers. Even if she is a fan girl it is not easy marrying into a family that has kids. Plus it is not like she did nothing since she awoke to the world she worked hard to gain a Fortune to the point the 8 the dukes people demand as a dowry is easy and simple for her. She also when out of her way to find the sword that would hurt Abel to give it to him in hopes of salveing him. She didn't need to do any of that, she may have her problem but that is just it no one if perfect. Alot of the other characters also note that she cane far to the north.

Her maid also would get some props to following her to the north, supporting her, and understand her even when Aisha uses words she didn't know like simp.

Edit also I agree with alot of the staff suggestions and would have pick them if they didn't. Like Leslie and Adele

Mi personaje que siempre me inspira es Ybona, es fuerte y amable a pesar de haber tenido un pasado muy doloroso, haber sido utilizada por su ex prometido, es increíble como es que llegó a utilizar la mayor magia posible y asi dejando en claro que ella es poderosa. Me encanta que ella no es maliciosa y no desea el mal, las cosas malas que les pasa a los villanos son consecuencias de sus actos. Adoro a Ybona y claro ella esta apoyada por buenas personas, una es su esposo Claude que siempre está ahí rompiendo estereotipos de que el hombre debe mandar. La amo, hermosa Ybona.

I thought about this for quite some time. Although there are so many strong women in the plenty pf comics, but I keep returning to Ha-Ri from The Business Proposal! Why?
1. She's an 'usual' human, with an ordinary pace of life, which I relate to.
2. She goes great lengths for her loved ones, selflessly and passionately.
3. She's hard working and very good person AND DAUGHTER (I was tearing up in the chapter with father's monologue)
5. She's very determined, and I like that she can dream big but also make it to her reality! Who doesn't dream about Taemu? But she actually went for him, talking about stamina!
And yes, 4. She's honest with herself. I know, she's from loving family, but non the less, she knows when enough is enough! And I tend to think Ha-Ri has a great sence of self-worth.

So far I'm loving Ha-Ri from A Business Proposal!!
She feels so relatable as a young professional millennial who is trying her best to help her family and friends, has an unrequited crush on a friend.

I'd say there are so many manhwa characters that inspired me in life. If I were to choose, I think the one that has the most impact in my life is Shuli. I just love everything about her, how matured she is, how she conducts herself, how she manages to shoulder all of the responsibilities etc. She was just in her teen life when she got married and had to went through her passing husband, and took care of the children all by herself. Even after she was given the chance to go back in time, I can see how pure hearted she is as the first thing she thought of is attending Jeremy's wedding; she didn't even hold any grudge and loves her children whole heartedly. The things that she prioritizes has always been her children, her responsibility. She defended her children, melted Nora's and everyone's hearts with her kindness. She's so strong, smart, selfless and indeed a beautiful soul. I wish I could have a beautiful and sincere heart like her; and as fortunate as she is to be able to travel the time back, I also wish to be fortunate to win the ink ^^ I'd like to take the opportunity to extend my heatfelt gratitude to the author and Tapas, for publishing this beautiful & magnificent manhwa! God bless you! Hats off, and here are flowers for you for creating such a masterpiece! :cherry_blossom::tulip::rose:
