What is a sweet, soft-spoken girl (Ha Li Kang) to do when her brothers, having just learned fencing and martial arts, decide to test some moves out on her in order to "tame her" and make her into their "little slave?" She runs to her knightly friend (Te Hu Kang, not related to Ha Li) for protection, of course. However, what happens when, instead of comforting her, he tells her that she is a coward for running away like a puppy who needs constant protection? No, she does not break down and cry like a weak girl. Instead, she resolves to grow stronger. With rigorous training everyday, Ha Li goes from being a scared girl who cries for help to becoming the Jjang (boss of a gang) of the Doberman gang.

7. One Piece
Gol D. Roger was known as the Pirate King, the strongest and most infamous being to have sailed the Grand Line. The capture and death of Roger by the World Government brought a change throughout the world. His last words before his death revealed the location of the greatest treasure in the world, One Piece. It was this revelation that brought about the Grand Age of Pirates, men who dreamed of finding One Piece (which promises an unlimited amount of riches and fame), and quite possibly the most coveted of titles for the person who found it, the title of the Pirate King.
Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy that defies your standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece, are his reasons of becoming a pirate. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece.

6. Zero no Tsukaima
Zero no Tsukaima's story follows the life of the female protagonist named Louise who attends an academy for those who can use magic as a second year student. In this world, those who can use magic are either a mage or a noble. Everyone else is a commoner and is not treated equally. She is unskilled at the craft, which means she can never use her magic the way she wants to and has been dubbed the name "Louise the Zero", due to her current success rate almost always being zero. Early in the school year, the second year students get to summon their familiars; this is considered a special day where a mage summons their eternal protector and partner, which usually is some sort of creature. Louise manages to summon a human male named Saito Hiraga from Earth, leaving Louise totally humiliated. She treats Saito as any other creature, making him sleep on the floor and eat leftovers, and beats him with a whip, among other things. One day Saito challenges a noble who disrespects commoners to a duel. Saito is beaten badly at first, but once a sword was put in Saito's hands, he gained amazing powers and wields the sword with great ability. Louise and Saito, during the course of the story, face many mysteries and uncover unexpected truths.
