History Main / BlackMagicianGirl

* Melody Farklight in ''VideoGame/{{Nostalgia}}'', complete with tons of spunk (and a side helping of {{tsundere}}-ness).

* Megumin fron ''LightNovel/KonoSuba'' could be considered one of these as she only knows one spell, but it is the offensive one, Explosion. At the start of the series it's powerful enough to blast a giant frog to bits and it just gets more powerful as the episodes pass. She's not the physical kind as she's outclassed in martial arts by pretty much everyone and even her own spell is enough to make her fall to the ground helpless.

* ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'''s Marisa Kirisame fits this trope to a T. Loud, brash, and a [[KleptomaniacHero pretty capable thief]] who uses her lifespan as an excuse for never returning anything she steals, and her favorite spell is a massive KamehameHadoken. Yet she's still one of the heroes of the setting, relatively speaking.

* Rita Mordio in ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia'', {{Tsundere}} in personality and the [[SmartGuy brains]] of the playable characters. Worth noting she's only [[LesYay deredere]] [[PseudoRomanticFriendship for the]] WhiteMagicianGirl Estelle.

* ''Anime/SenkiZesshouSymphogear G''

* ''VideoGame/Persona5'' features Ann Takamaki, a lively member of the phantom thieves with a massive SweetTooth. Her persona specializes in fire spells backed by the team’s highest Magic stat, with a secondary focus on StatusEffects and very basic healing.

* GenkiGirl Arle from the ''[[VideoGame/PuyoPuyo Madou Monogatari]]'' series is this. She's a [[OneManArmy One Girl Army]] who wanders around dungeon crawlers to beats up huge elephants, giant chickens, zombies, dragon girl, and ''Satan'' on her own simply with her magic, and [[BadAssAdorable she's just a kindergarten student]] in some of those games.

* Charmcaster from ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}''. She's got the brash, forceful personality down; but unlike most examples listed, she's a villain.

* Melia from ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}'' has several elements of this, despite being technically [[Really700YearsOld the oldest party member]], being a High Entia. She's the only party member capable of manipulating [[MagicByAnyOtherName ether]] by herself, and has a few nasty {{Limit Break}}s under her sleeve.

* ''Fanfic/MementoVivere'', a VideoGame/FinalFantasyX fanfiction, uses this trope to describe Rikku whenever she's using the magical powers of her Conflagration Grid, particularly during the battle on Mushroom Rock Road.

* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV'' has Rydia, who starts out a child but undergoes a PlotRelevantAgeUp. To an extent, Rydia seems generally boisterous, but this is tempered by her past as the [[LastOfHisKind sole survivor]] of her DoomedHometown. She also isn't in love with any of the other heroes, but does serve as the unrequited love interest of Edge and comes to see Cecil as a father figure.
** Also Palom is a Black Magician Boy.
* Vivi from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'' is a more contemplative Black Magician Boy than most of his female counterparts, but he packs more magic than any other mage into a body half their size!

* Relm from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI''. While the other two female members of the team are also very powerful spellcasters, they're more {{Magic Knight}}s and she's the only one that [[BrattyHalfPint fits this personality type.]]

* Vanille in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' is cute, funny, [[GenkiGirl genki]] and all around adorable. She's also the best Saboteur.

* Refia from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIII [[TheRemake DS]]'', if changing her class to Black Mage.

* Selphie Tilmitt of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'' fits the trope. Although she is eighteen, she is by far the most childish member of the main cast. Her LimitBreak is magic based. Unusually for the trope, she does become a love interest - but it's part of the BetaCouple.

* Toph Beifong from ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' is a twelve-year-old tomboy and [[DeadpanSnarker snark goddess]] who deals [[DishingOutDirt mountains]] [[{{Pun}} of damage]] to baddies. Her Earthbending abilities are equally useful for defense and offense, but she loves dealing out a good offensive smackdown (or just a good game of horseplay), and this definitely qualifies her as a Black Magician girl. Unlike many other {{Black Magician Girl}}s, though, her attacks aren't always ranged; she's perfectly willing to get into the grit of battle. For instance, she had a mud wrestling match with Katara (erm...ThatCameOutWrong), and she once actually ''[[ExtraOreDinary covered her body in metal]]'' to take down a Fire Nation airship from the inside.

* Penny, the twin sister of the ''Literature/RedRoom'' series' protagonist, is a badass sorceress who wields a magical staff once belonging to Hiawatha. She's also a BadassGay character too.

* ''Literature/ThreePartsDead'': Despite professing to be all about courts and contracts, Tara spends most of her time working (mainly necromantic) Craft on the offensive, and quite impressively so, and has enough power and talent to still be relevant despite having been thrown out of the Hidden Schools while fighting her professors. As the youngest of the people tasked with investiganting Kos's case, she's got a forceful personality and can act foolishly but isn't above admitting that she's still got a lot to learn.

* Ashlynn from ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVI'' is a tomboy, and the youngest member of the party. She also knows several of the strongest offensive spells in the game and is the only party member able to learn the ridiculously powerful Magic Burst (normally only learned by mastering a vocation which is only available post-game) prior to defeating the final boss.

[[caption-width-right:300:[[SchmuckBait Go ahead]], [[BerserkButton comment on her]] [[ACupAngst cup size]]. See where it gets you.]]

* Nami from ''Manga/OnePiece'' has all the trimmings of this due to her Clima-Tact: she's the weakest of the crew in a physical fight, but she's able to control weather effects as though they're magic spells being cast from a staff (with lightning being her specialty, although she's more than proficient with heat, wind, cold, water, sea clouds, and illusory techniques as well). Some of her opponents have even referred to her as a witch in response to her fighting style.

* Schierke of ''{{Manga/Berserk}}'' could qualify, being a powerful witch and signifigantly younger than most other characters (except [[TagalongKid Isidro]]). However, her personality is almost a complete aversion, aside from tending towards being SkilledButNaive.
* Kirika Akatsuki from ''Anime/SenkiZesshouSymphogear G'' is the GenkiGirl and PerkyFemaleMinion of the TerribleTrio, who (along with Shirabe) is the youngest of the current Symphogear users. Her design bears strong resemblance to the TropeNamer, but since the series is a MagicalGirlWarrior show where the Symphogear users have MagiTek weapons, there is not much magic to use, but she has the ability to destroy souls with her SinisterScythe, which is the closest thing of an abstract magical ability you can get in this series. Kirika also averts the part with the weak physical abilities, since she's physically stronger than Shirabe and Chris.
