3. Maria Takayama from Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai

anime nun

Maria a 10-year-old nun, is a teacher at the academy, and the overseer of the club. She is actually an unbearable character; Not only is her IQ lower than that of a chimpanzee (I have no idea who’s the drunk who qualified her to be a teacher), but she’s also annoying. very annoying She is the only one of the club girls whose affection for Kodaka seems more like a crush, and I can understand him getting upset when Maria calls Kodaka ‘big brother’. Oh, and her voice makes my ears tremble.

anime nun

Melpha is a nun from a church in Gainos. Her fighting capabilities are limited and she’s one of the weakest characters in the series.

Kate Takayama

Kate, Maria’s older sister and the only nun in the world who will make you repent for her. Besides being the object of desire, she has a tough but loving personality, with a lot of insight into the life (of Kodaka). Her constant abuse of her sister Maria probably made me hate Maria a little more

She can sometimes appear crude in her actions, however, she is much more composed and serious outside of these habits, giving off the impression of someone older with a stoic-like outlook on life.

17. Yumiko “Yumie” Takagi from Hellsing

Yumie

Yumiko Takagi is a Catholic nun belonging to Section XIII. Apart from her first and last names and tendency to use katanas, she’s more typically European than Japanese. Her Welsh (or sometimes Scottish) accent can be explained by the fact that she was raised by an Irish priest in Japan. Yumie appears to be the strongest of Iscariot’s ranks. She’s ridiculously effective with her katana and manages to move at superspeed on a couple of occasions. She has enough skill to kill her victims from outside the room they’re standing in and is capable of smashing heads into walls with her bare hands. Overall, her fighting style is very similar to Anderson’s – it seems likely that he trained Yumie himself.

Sister Angela

Sister Angela, a novice Christian nun, not yet a full nun, comes from a quite wealthy family. Angela gave up her privileged birth for the veil. Angela is less likely to explode than a traditional Tsundere, she practices strict discipline. This is most likely her faith and training talking.

Seira Mimori

A nun-in-training who goes out of her way to help others, console them, and encourage them. Despite her good deeds, she neglects the seal of confession (even when she intends to do good).

21. Sarah Adiemus from School Rumble

Sarah Adiemus

Yakumo’s British friend Sarah Adiemus appears to be a nun, but it turns out that she only does that on an after-school basis. Part of her duties includes hearing other peoples’ confessions–which only priests and bishops can do. The other teens come into the confession room as well to ask for relationship advice–instead of giving their own.

22. Matilda Simmons from Black Butler

Matilda Simmons

When Sebastian meets Matilda, she takes a liking to him and they have an affair.
