* ''VideoGame/MedalOfHonorUnderground'': A prominent CentralTheme of the game is Manon Batiste's femininity and her place as a young French spy living and fighting through the [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII deadliest conflict in human history]]. Even though Manon never speaks outside of the intro and post-mission films (and only pain grunts and death cries when she is shot during gameplay), the missions continually harken to her womanhood -- she is the sister of a LaResistance cell leader, stealth sequences have her posing as a female journalist to infiltrate German facilities, taking cheeky snaps of the German soldiers with the camera to get them to lower their guard and let her through checkpoints when the paperwork fails.

* While "VideoGame/EldenRing" doesn't really have a set MainCharacter, with the Tarnished being a blank slate, a look at the characters of the wider setting and the overall lore firmly puts it into this trope. For one, the resident TopGod of the setting is a woman, Queen Marika the Eternal, which itself is a massive departure from most mythologies, including the [[{{Myth/ClassicalMythology}} Classical]] and [[{{Myth/NorseMythology}} Norse]] ones that were among the main inspirations for the setting. Furthermore, she's shown to be a cunning, ruthlessly intelligent Chessmaster and warlord who had a big part in forging her empire into what it is now. On top of that, there's the fact that despite both her spouses being men, she's shown to be the one holding the reigns in their relationships. It's especially notable in the case of Godfrey, who despite being the archetypal ManlyMan, is shown to be perfectly fine with this, to the point of having no resentment against her for exiling him, as indicated by his cut dialogue. And going beyond Marika, quite a few of the big players in the setting are women. Queen Rennala is not only the ruler of Liurnia, she's also TheArchmage of the setting, being credited as the most powerful sorceress in the LandsBetween, along with holding the position of WorldsSmartestWoman. And perhaps most strikingly of all, we have Malenia, who's not only a contender for both WorldsStrongestMan and WorldsBestWarrior, she does all of this while being a [[HandicappedBadass blind, triple-amputee suffering from a terminal illness]], a reputation she more than lives up to as the game's premier {{Superboss}}.

Furthermore, of the five [[TheChosenOne Empyreans]] mentioned in game, four of them (Marika, Ranni, Malenia, and the Gloam-Eyed Queen) are women, with only one man among them (Miquella). And perhaps most strikingly speaking of all, the Empyreans, we have Malenia, who's not only a contender for both WorldsStrongestMan and WorldsBestWarrior, she does all of this while being a [[HandicappedBadass blind, triple-amputee suffering from a terminal illness]], a reputation she more than lives up to as the game's premier {{Superboss}}.

* The Nasuverse as a whole arguably falls into this. While some of the later entries definitely tend to be more heavy on [[Fanservice Fanservice]], there's no denying that it's filled with a high number of powerful, competent women. Of the entries, "Literature/TheGardenOfSinners" and "VisualNovel/WitchOnTheHolyNight" both follow female protagonists with little to no Fanservice, and in "VisualNovel/FateStayNight" and "VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}", the heroines tend to be just as, if not more, competent and powerful than the male protagonists, with Arcueid, the "main" heroine of the latter, being a contender for strongest character in the setting.
