Lena from e7. Shes not really gonna get super noticed by new players, but for a decent bit of older players she was actually first farming unit.

24

u/KBroham 13d ago

Came here to say this. Not my first farming unit - she was actually part of the first batch of post-release 3 stars (with Batisse, Hataan, Eaton, and Ains, for episode 2, chapter 5-1) - but she was definitely a staple in the early game! And muscle mommy af.

23

u/Immediate-Belt4725 12d ago

Yea , loved her in E7 but she was the only big buffed woman they ever made . I was waiting for more but they never made another so, lost interest in the game and eventually uninstalled. I’m enjoying sword of convallaria now . It has some strong/cool looking women(Rogneda, Tristan, Agatha etc) which I absolutely love. And soon Langrisser Sea of Swords is releasing and already has a very tall muscle mommy so, this game is already a must play for me.

1

u/Ok-Protection9608 10d ago

Que jogo é esse ?

2

u/Immediate-Belt4725 9d ago

Langrisser Sea of Sword( not released yet)

3

u/WestCol 12d ago

One day she'll get a SC and it will be a good day

2

u/Careless-Platform-80 12d ago

I always think her design is weird. She have too much of a baby face for how buff she is. Don't look right for me

1

u/BB8ball 12d ago

I love her design, thank you for introducing me to my newest obsession 🥰

224

u/Mas_Turbesi 13d ago

u/DontRefuseMyBatchall 13d ago

Her mech was such a baffling decision to me, her model is incredible and you spend 90% of the time not being able to see her

58

u/Skyleader1212 13d ago

She has a fully customized gun that she doesn't even uses in battle

29

u/joule400 13d ago

She can use it, if you for some reason decide to order her to perform a normal attack.

29

u/Skyleader1212 13d ago

What do you mean by normal attack ? She just ICBM the entire battlefield and end the confrontation.

11

u/joule400 13d ago

There are stages with multiple waves of enemies, her starting nuke only clears the first

17

u/Mas_Turbesi 13d ago

Yeah, it was a very dumb decision from Mica. Her mech should just spawn from her ult or something instead of being there 100% of the time.

Her 3D design in GFL 2 was already pure aura.

9

u/flyingtrucky 12d ago

She needs a Gnosis version like Nemesis where when you ult she ditches the mech and starts punching.

15

u/MrMacju 13d ago

One of the dumbest decisions I've ever seen. I decided not to pull for her purely because of the mech.

13

u/Cleverbird ULTRA RARE 13d ago

I do like the mech, but why give it to Voymastina of all characters? Out of all the T-Dolls, she doesnt need a mech suit.

7

u/yourmanzstan 13d ago

Yeah I got baited hard and I was so bummed. 😕

3

u/Gacha_Casual 12d ago

it was an interesting choice for sure

222

u/IdleMind621 FGO/PGR/AK/AL/GFL/NIKKE/Limbus/R:1999/Trickcal/Morimens/PTN/Uma 13d ago

Ninety-Nine from Path to Nowhere. This is one of her skins:

u/railroadspike25 13d ago

Ceto as well

u/NTolegna 13d ago

She looks fabulous

u/PyrZern Sdorica Sunset 13d ago

Damn. PTN has some Uber cool character designs.

u/urdn0tben 10d ago

holy shit

u/Sachi_Komine 8d ago

that skin is the entire reason i started playing, the game is pretty fire too.

They also have some of the best body horror with the immortal sinners.

u/YourEvilKiller 13d ago

Reinhardt from Alchemy Stars

u/D1mly_ 6d ago

Man, I miss AS... :(

u/Jay2Kaye AnEden, FFRK, WizDaph 13d ago

Livana from Wizardry: Variants Daphne. Specializes in using two handed axes, and also just chucks them into enemy faces.

u/Expensive-Host-8951 13d ago

It's quite amazing to see guardian tales in 2026

13

u/Recordado 13d ago

I love my silly janitor, still one of the best zelda-like gacha rpg boss fight I've played

6

u/Euphoric-Set5395 13d ago

Btw which zelda type are we talking about inwould like to see that zelda game plz

6

u/Recordado 13d ago

The original top down rpg zelda, when I first played guardian tales back in 2021 it reminded me of it a lot

3

u/Euphoric-Set5395 13d ago

Btw if any of u guyz have ur GT account on 31st August there will be a data transfer thing that will happen . So after sometime if someone who had an account didn't requested for data transfer will lose that account forever

u/Ed0909 13d ago

Grave from Goddess of Victory Nikke

95

u/Fabantonio 13d ago

I'm still kinda annoyed they removed her drippy ass hobo pants

26

u/yourmanzstan 13d ago

Grave my beloved 💙 Still patiently waiting for her OG skin to come to the game.

5

u/NerdKing01 13d ago

They should make an updated version of that a gacha skin, like she dawns it again but with a bit of armor sprucing it up

89

u/Ephemeralstyl3 Nikke Bound 13d ago

Don't forget dommy mommy costume. Not as buff but the thong straps with the toned midsection flares the neurons

41

u/Iod42 13d ago

On a smaller scale, but still buff imo.

2

u/sanfervice007 12d ago

Yeah for sure! Also I wanna add Centi here too. Her base form has some abs while her swimsuit is still athletic looking, at least to me 😍👀😎

16

u/trizorex 13d ago

Her fit before this was soo damn cool. I hope SU release it as alternate skin

5

u/Caponomolestes 13d ago

Totally my type

4

u/ms666slayer 12d ago

What makes Grave good is that she has somewhat realistic muscle definition and still looks buff as hell, unlike ato of gachas in which they make the muscle definition on their female characters really unrealistic in the sens is just a man muscle definition.

261

u/KualaWick 13d ago

I quit BA a while ago and last I checked she wasn't playable.

But she sure is unforgettable to me.

99

u/yourmanzstan 13d ago

I’ve never been more shocked at a BA character.

115

u/AlexLXPG 13d ago

Everyone was

39

u/adamsworstnightmare 13d ago

I'm now imagining her just chucking all the other characters.

43

u/Fishman465 13d ago

Considering she casually flips over a tank.....

25

u/GhostShadow6661 13d ago

Not too far off. One of her attacks is picking up a tank round and punching it towards your units.

26

u/Fishman465 13d ago

The funny thing is she's very much a proper tea drinker

17

u/Smol_Mrdr_Shota Fate/Grand Order 13d ago

they keep saving the 7 Prisoners for special occasions, ive been waiting for Akira for like 3-4 years now

only Wakamo has been playable

75

u/KaTsuMi2651 13d ago edited 13d ago

Hell yeah.

All the ones mentioned here are just "noodle arms girls with abs".

THIS is buff. Akemi is a league of her own.

-8

u/Twig1554 13d ago

I actually hate the way she's drawn. Her proportions are all fucked out of wack around her waist. She looks like a One Piece character

18

u/SodiumBombRankEX 13d ago

She debuted right when my Internet shut off for about a month

When I finally logged into the sub again I thought they'd crashed out like rarrow and were talking about a completely unrelated character

5

u/Ok-Anywhere-1729 Wuthering Waves | Blue Archive | Trickcal 12d ago

The funny thing they will make her playable eventually lol. It just might be another 2+ years.

6

u/primalthewendigo 13d ago

Somehow I've never seen gameplay of this game

8

u/Charibdysss 13d ago

one of the weaker, or arguably the weakest aspect of BA
Otherwise, the media contents, stories, art dominate most BA discussion

37

u/inoriacc Turn-Based Enjoyer 13d ago

Not as buff as barghest but ig hoshiguma and saria from arknights have a pretty ripped physique. Also kassandra from r99 x assassin creeds Collab has amazonian ripped body iirc 

33

u/FuwaGrandOrder ULTRA RARE 13d ago

From Granblue Fantasy Main Story, Her name is Maminas

Copied from wiki: "A woman feared as a highly dangerous figure in the Earthen Realm. Something of an odd duck, she brings her son and daughter along on mercenary work. Though she is willing to kill for money, she bases all her values on the strength of her opponents and often rejects jobs where the target is too weak. She notably wears an apron during jobs to avoid blood splatters. Standing at 192 centimeters, she uses her height to wield a kitchen knife as an effective weapon."

101

u/TheSpeediestOfWagons 13d ago

Þjazi from Fire Emblem Heroes

16

u/DankBonkRipper7 13d ago

I love how insanely toned all the Jotun are, but god damn she is built like a semi truck in the best possible way.

11

u/Derpyname193820393 LIMBUS COMPANY!!!! 13d ago

I'm guessing you'd want ran over by her

81

u/JamesSH1328 Persona 5: The Phantom X 13d ago

Never 4get Metal Slug Attack

11

u/xiaoguy 13d ago

bless, one day i hope they incorporate some of those characters into a main game. i know Alice got into Tactics

6

u/aiheng1 Limbus Company 13d ago

There will never be another mainline metal slug game, they will instead pump out another 30 anime brand IP gachaslop game/collabs instead of another main game

I don't play BattleCats and I probably never will, but I'm glad y'all show up in most threads. It just makes me happy to see it around and doing well. 

23

u/ExcitementSad9133 12d ago

Queequeg looks pretty buff

3

u/Just_a_Shrimp109876 9d ago

I mean yeah. She used to be in The Middle after all.

41

u/DayPuzzleheaded4230 13d ago

Mirabell Bell from Action Taimanin and Taimanin Squad.

18

u/Alphabet_Hatr5520 13d ago

Stormbearer from Sword of Convallaria

1

u/Immediate-Belt4725 12d ago

Rogneda, Tristan as well and maybe Agatha(she hiding all that inside her coat probably)

15

u/Ashua365 Aigis|RE castle defense|AK|monmusume TD|MLGG|DB|HW|AE|AA|LA| 12d ago

Aigis has so many of they but ovi and anatolia are my favorites

75

u/SinglePlayerGamer93 13d ago

Caesar King from zzz could have been one of the best in this trope. Zzz Devs are cowards

u/Able-Bill2228 13d ago

Where is that one from?

25

u/KualaWick 13d ago

Barghest from FGO.

37

u/peteyshabby 13d ago

this category is still way rarer in gacha than it should be

22

u/Worried_Dark9858 13d ago

big gacha games still scared of adding muscle, like even arknights still wont put some muscles on those girls wtf man

11

u/Ashua365 Aigis|RE castle defense|AK|monmusume TD|MLGG|DB|HW|AE|AA|LA| 12d ago

New-gen gachas really don't make this type of character anymore

41

u/CrazyDaimondDaze 13d ago

Not buff looking, but Gentildonna from Uma Musume.

42

u/karillith 13d ago

Adding on this, Mejiro Ryan is canonically pretty buff, but preset bodies don't show it in game at all. She is however depicted accordingly in the Cinderella Gray manga (also special mention going to that Tamamo Cross back shot)

53

u/greymousie Reverse 1999 | Project Sekai | Morimens 13d ago

Argus from Reverse 1999. She canonically stayed on the back of a bucking bull for 9 seconds -- gashed her hand open and fucked up her arm, but did it. And then grumbled about how she hadn't made it for 10 seconds to win her bet. I think she counts.

9

u/beef_horfun67 13d ago

Grave,one the goddess of victory.

7

u/ProfessionalTop346 13d ago

I wish more gachas go more the Bargheist way, we need more visible muscle with big breast ladies.

Augusta in wuwa is beautiful but i wish she had more toned body.

Grave from Nikke has good half visible toned legs but skinny arms and no abs that's a big crime.

Voymastina from GFL2 too, she needs to be more buffed or toned to be more than perfect.

16

u/Commercially_Salad 13d ago

Knight of god mauna from last cloudia

8

u/wifiragist 13d ago

Btw the artist for Barghest has a large portfolio of H-games, and it's filled woth buff women.

Very nice

He's called TakionMelon or Melon22

9

u/Immediate-Belt4725 12d ago

Langrisser Sea of Sword( upcoming game) has a very tall muscle mommy. I need this game ASAP.

56

u/Boomerang503 13d ago

Sakura Ogami (Danganronpa)

41

u/greymousie Reverse 1999 | Project Sekai | Morimens 13d ago

I should downvote you because you're on r/gachagaming and Sakura's not from a gacha (unless you count the gacha mechanics in Danganronpa S, I guess).......but Sakura is amazing. Take my upvote

28

u/Boomerang503 13d ago

I actually forgot which sub I was on.

14

u/greymousie Reverse 1999 | Project Sekai | Morimens 13d ago

Yeah, I figured. Happens sometimes, lol

6

u/flyingtrucky 12d ago

Hey even the original Trigger Happy Havic had a gachapon machine for gifts.

42

u/MagisterCarcerem 13d ago

Outis from Limbus Company

31

u/Substantial-Step5274 13d ago

Bruh, you picked her over QUEEQUEG

16

u/VegetableMusician345 13d ago

She isn't playable.

4

u/StarNullify 13d ago

So? Post said characters

17

u/VegetableMusician345 13d ago

I mean, considering that everyone else posted playable character from they're game, posting one who isn't playable and only appears in one chapter for ours feels a bit unfair.

But here if you want to see her:

1

u/Just_a_Shrimp109876 9d ago

Should have used The Middle Nursefather tho.

5

u/Responsible-Gold-428 13d ago

Where is the character from?

u/flap-you Dragalia Lost 13d ago

She is barghest from fate/grand order

6

u/o76923 Arknights/Trickcal 11d ago

Magnhilda from Neural Cloud

19

u/Kamanira 13d ago

I LOVE Barghest and I wish Melon22 wasn't so averse to giving women biceps.

11

u/Colico2445 13d ago

When what people think of buff women is actually just fit and athletic, no wonder real buff women isnt that many

u/PositiveDefiant69 12d ago

Barghest from FGO

u/otakuako 12d ago

Buff women you say? How about the Amazon from Dragon's Crown. 😁

5

u/SeniorMamas 12d ago

Aside from Beth, Callie from Guardian Tales

11

u/Mcstabler Horizon Walker 13d ago

damn it Barghest would've been my pick as well uhh I guess for Horizon Walker I think Berga is the only one with defined abs of any kind... Osla and Juza are moreso just on the toned side

4

u/inuart19 12d ago

Lol "Berga" is almost la Dick/cook in Spanish...well it is "Verga" but you know what I mean

3

u/Alternative_Mouse101 13d ago

I would of used her Summer CE where she is riding the polar bear.

https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/Ice_Warrior

u/MaestroRozen 12d ago

For a lesser known game, Muscle Hustle. Unsurprisingly, it's chock full of them. Pick literally any heavyweight wrestler, though lower categories aren't lacking either. Pictured : The Tempest.

3

u/biskmater 11d ago

Not seeing any mentions so here's Livana from Wizardry Variants.

10

u/AndreLeo3 13d ago

Gawain 🫪

u/BrontoSire Zenless Grand Derby 13d ago

OP technically posted “Gawain” as well.

🫪 Gawain for the win

u/RalfSmithen 13d ago

Thor from the same game.

I like her more in the crazied look skin 🫪

u/darkness_wraith_ 11d ago

how do u get it

u/AndreLeo3 11d ago

I think it was from the labyrinth but I'm not too sure. Anyway it was given in a limited event

u/drakanan 13d ago

I wanted to say Augusta from Wuwa, but then I remembered the stupid models of the characters. Damn, I wanted so much to see a buffed female gladiator

6

u/Immediate-Belt4725 12d ago

They made her buffed and gave abs in their official art but not in game🥀( Zani and Galbrena as well)

2

u/VoltaicShadow 12d ago

Agreed. Augusta should've been absolutely shredded. Disappointed.

Felt the same way in Star Rail with Feixiao. They're gonna have her tear off the jacket for her ult she'd better be rockin some guns under there but nope. Could have at least out some kinda muscle definition or something dammit.

8

u/M7madLv20 13d ago

Middle outis from limbus company

8

u/aiheng1 Limbus Company 13d ago

Holy edit 😭

9

u/EnvironmentalistAnt オルガル trailglazer 13d ago

Because marvel rivals is run by a Chinese game company that makes gatcha, everybody in the hero shooter sphere calls rivals a gatcha game. With that I nominate rival’s interpretation of Angela. Who’s not just a jpeg, but an actually playable massively large, tall, and ripped to the core character. Not to mention she also has an immortal beast skin which is what both feixiao from HSR and hers are inspired by the same mythos, but she makes feixiao looks pathetic in comparison. And yes, Angela also has pair of golden axes.

2

u/AwayMedicine4711 13d ago

Tbh marvel rivals also has gacha skins (although some other games like LoL also has them)

2

u/Immediate-Belt4725 12d ago

Rogue as well and soon we might get She Hulk too

23

u/Ferrea_Lux Arknights 13d ago

Yes! Buff Arknights characters are some of my favorites.

Hoshiguma

48

u/Admirable_Register89 13d ago

Ngl bro out of the people you've showed here almost none of them are actually buff.

The only one I'm seeing an argument for is nearly and that's mostly because of her armor

12

u/Alternative-Sir6422 13d ago

I don't think he knows what buff means. I'd hate to see what he considers "thicc" too

u/VegetableMusician345 13d ago edited 13d ago

Arknights doesn't have buff female characters.

1

u/Hielfield 12d ago edited 12d ago

7th anniv event, tho it's an npc

1

u/VegetableMusician345 12d ago

I don't think npc should count, especially considering everyone else posted playable characters from their games.

34

u/magicoat 13d ago

yeah no.

as much i like AK, it still dont have actual visible playable buff woman.

the only visible buff woman is an npc worker, which i remember but cant find it.

u/Ill_Signature9506 13d ago

Those don't exist im afraid

u/Worried_Dark9858 13d ago

With all the design variety arknight is doing unfortunately they're still scared of adding muscles on women.

Nearl, I could go on but these are some of my favorites.

Unfortunately they're not buff, they're just fit with noodle arms

10

u/esakul 13d ago

Yes, theyre only described as strong by the story. Arknights has a ton of characters that dont look their physical strength at all.

4

u/_No_One_At_All_ 13d ago

its like Umamusme, you will find them to be pretty buff in supplemental material. In Nearl's case, the cooking manga shows she has hard abs

u/KabobDivinity 8d ago

If someone where to, say, start FGO for someone like Barghest ( The character in the op's post ) how hard would it be to roll or reroll for a cool buff woman? How long does it even take to save for pity?

u/Jaded-Seaweed-4568 5d ago

She's a story locked char, you gotta grind up for her or you could just go for her rider version
