1. YoRHa No. 2 Type B (2B) – NieR: Automata Ver.1.1a
It’s worth mentioning that 2B is considered one of the most iconic characters in the NieR game series. Therefore, when NieR: Automata was adapted into an animated film, fans were particularly excited to see the storyline of this white-haired character unfold on screen.
Despite sharing several traits with other strong female characters, 2B stands out with her unique blend of elegance and strength, alongside a hint of vulnerability, which resonates with many fans, even those who may not have played NieR: Automata but still adore this character.
