This is missing the archetype that does not look anything like she will dominate you but will. That archetype always has a specific straight fringe look too. They're the type everyone thinks is really nice but in the bedroom she's going to training you.

Don't hurt me healer mentioned!!

It's genuinely great and completely underappreciated by the average anime viewer.

I'm going to use this as an opportunity to plug that the extremely buff lady is from a manga called "Tenkaichi: The Greatest Warrior Under the Rising Sun," which is one of those "what if the whole manga was a tournament arc?" manga like Kengan Asura or especially Record of Ragnarok (but the pacing is usually way better than RoR, imo).

The premise, the reason the title emphasizes Japan in the way it does, is that it takes a bunch of historical and semi-historical (and sometimes legendary or original) Japanese figures and has them fight each other, e.g. Yasuke (the famous black samurai) and a young Miyamoto Musashi are two of the participants. The idea is that Oda Nobunaga, who is rightfully portrayed as a fucking lich, just wants to see a brutal bloodsport once more before he dies and is willing to give his throne to the winner to get the best participants possible (it's clearly a little inspired by Shigurui).

The lady is Fuma Kotaro, a fictional leader of the famous Fuma ninja clan, a popular subject in folklore and popular fiction, wherein every leader supposedly took the name "Fuma Kotaro". The dom thing is very much part of her character, though mainly she just likes ripping people apart.

If you're into battle slop, it's very good battle slop. I've read a lot of "what if the whole manga was a tournament arc?" manga and this one is my favorite of them.

Is the second one supposed to be Mordred from Fate?
