Yellow is such a fun and lively color, and it’s no surprise that many anime girls wear it to match their upbeat vibes! While I kind of cheated with the Pretty Cure franchise, there are quite a lot of anime girls who rock yellow and it isn’t only the color they wear that makes them memorable!
1. Mami Tomoe (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)
Mami Tomoe is the older, more mature magical girl from Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and she’s always seen in her yellow-themed uniform. She’s an elegant and strong mentor to the other girls.
Mami has this bittersweet vibe—she’s powerful, but her story has a lot of sadness too. All in all, she’s such a strong yet vulnerable character, and her wearing a dull yellow outfit rather than a bright one really fits her nurturing and calm personality.
2. Alice Zuberg (SAO)
Alice Zuberg is a key character in Sword Art Online: Alicization, and she’s often seen in her iconic yellow and blue armor. Alice’s strong will and sense of justice make her shine in a world full of complicated characters. She starts off as an innocent, naive girl, but eventually becomes a skilled warrior, which is both inspiring and emotional.
Fans love her for her bravery and deep loyalty to those she cares about. Her yellow armor isn’t just for show—it represents her pure heart and the inner strength she discovers along the way.
3. Ai Ohto (Wonder Egg Priority)
Ai Ohto from Wonder Egg Priority rocks a yellow hoodie that creates a nice contrast with her blue hair. Unfortunately, she’s dealing with some serious inner struggles. That said, she works through them by helping others face their fears.
Ai is so real and raw—she’s not perfect, and that’s what makes her so relatable. As she journeys through a dream world, trying to save others and heal herself, her struggle with uncertainty is something a lot of people can connect to.
4. Bu-Ling Huang (Tokyo Mew Mew)
Another character who wears yellow when transformed into Mew Pudding is Bu-Ling Huang. Her monkey DNA seems to reflect her lively and playful personality, always full of energy and eager for fun. However, her constant enthusiasm can sometimes make her come across as a bit childish, which often leads to her teammates, like Minto, teasing her about it.
While she often appears playful and carefree, especially around her fellow Mew Mews, Bu-Ling is actually quite responsible. She takes on the role of caretaker for her younger siblings, showing a level of maturity that surprises others.
5. Yayoi Kise (Glitter Force)
As the happy-go-lucky member of Glitter Force, Yayoi Kise’s bright yellow outfit is the perfect match for her sunny disposition. No matter how tough things get, Yayoi, as a Glitter Force member, always stays positive and fights for justice. Her high-energy way of tackling problems and her strong will to protect her friends make her super lovable.
Who wouldn’t love Yayoi for her kindness? Her transformation into Glitter Peace always brings a smile, as she brings light and hope to everyone around her.
6. Amanogawa Kirara (Go! Princess Pretty Cure.)
The glamorous and energetic princess of the Go! Princess Pretty Cure squad, Kirara Amanogawa, aka Cure Twinkle, loves the spotlight. That said, she is also super caring and ready to fight for her friends.
Her yellow outfit is bright and cheerful, just like her spirit. Kirara’s journey is about finding her own true path and helping others do the same, making her unforgettable.
7. Hiramitsu Hinata (Healin’ Good♥Pretty Cure.)
With her lively and caring nature, Hinata is always there to support her friends. In fact, her natural kindness makes her a comforting presence in the group. She is super passionate about nature and healing, which ties into her healing powers as Cure Grace.
As the team’s emotional pillar, her heart and spirit shine through, especially when she demonstrates how deeply she values her friends and the world around her. If you love characters who are kind-hearted and genuine, Hinata is the perfect example.
8. Kasugano Urara (Yes! Pretty Cure 5)
With her love for fashion, Urara turns into Cure Lemonade, and of course, her look is all about that sunny yellow, just like lemonade. Her energy and excitement make her a super fun character to follow.
Urara’s adventurous spirit and upbeat energy are totally contagious. Fans love seeing her grow from a bit self-centered to a strong leader. Plus, her yellow outfit fits her bubbly personality perfectly!
9. Shirabe Ako (Suite Pretty Cure♪.)
Shirabe Ako, or Cure Melody from Suite Pretty Cure♪, is full of passion and energy. Again, her yellow costume matches her bright, lively spirit. Shirabe loves music and is always fighting to protect what she loves.
Interestingly, she grows from being a bit of a loner to someone who learns to open up and trust her friends. Her cheerful and determined nature really makes her a standout character in the series.
10. Yotsuba Alice (Doki Doki! Pretty Cure)
Yotsuba Alice, or Cure Rosetta, starts off a bit stuck up because of her wealthy background. She seems like she’s too mature for the group, but as the series goes on, Alice starts opening up to her friends and letting down her walls.
Her transformation into Cure Rosetta lets her shine with the power of light, which fits her character’s growth perfectly. Watching Alice learn to balance her different sides and become closer to her friends is really inspiring.
11. Kagayaki Homare (HUGtto! Pretty Cure.)
Kagayaki Homare, or Cure Etoile, has a super interesting backstory in HUGtto! Pretty Cure. She used to be a child star but decided to take a step back to focus on her studies.
Her transformation into Cure Etoile is all about using her light-based powers to fight the bad guys but that isn’t the most interesting thing about her. Homare is trying to figure out who she really is and what she wants, and that makes her character arc so relatable and engaging.
12. Ichinose Minori (Healin’ Good♥Pretty Cure.)
Minori Ichinose, or Cure Final, is a character who brings a lot of determination to the Healin’ Good♥Pretty Cure squad. She’s calm, and confident, and has a quiet strength that helps keep the team grounded. Minori isn’t the loudest one, but when it comes to protecting her friends and fighting for what’s right, she steps up.
Her yellow-themed outfit matches her upbeat personality and her journey of finding her voice is one of the most rewarding parts of her story. Minori’s steady and reliable nature makes her a character you can’t help but root for.
13. Rei (Persona Q Shadow of the Labyrinth)
Rei from Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is a minor character in the Persona universe who makes a major impact. With her stylish, yellow and white school uniform, Rei brings a mix of cute and mysterious.
She’s cool-headed, observant, and always has her act together, making her a great addition to the group. Her calm demeanor contrasts with some of the more eccentric characters, and fans enjoy her ability to stay level-headed even in the most confusing and chaotic moments.
