I'm trying to put together a comprehensive master list of anime girl archetypes for a personal project/reference guide. We all know the classic dere variants, but I want to map out everything from personality traits to visual/narrative tropes.

Here is what I have so far off the top of my head to get us started. Please comment with any I missed, especially the more niche or modern ones

Tsundere, Yandere, Kuudere, Dandere, Bakadere, Kamidere, Himedere, Hajidere, Sadodere, Shundere, The Genki Girl, The Ojou-sama, The Yamato Nadeshiko, The Tomboy, The Chuunibyou, The Magical Girl, The Sensei, The Christmas Cake, The Childhood Friend, The Transfer Student, The Onee-san, The Imouto, The Meganekko, The Gyaru, The Gothic Lolita, The Shrine Maiden, The Ahaho, The Bokukko, The Doikko, The Cool Beauty, The Kemonomimi, The Gap Moe Character
