List of female cards

This is a list of female cards, including female monsters and cards that depict female monsters in their artworks. Most monsters are visibly female due to having female secondary sex characteristics ("Mist Valley Shaman", "Performance of Sword"), but some are only shown to be female in card text: they have female pronouns or feminine word forms in their names ("Archfiend Empress", "Serpentine Princess") or are referred to as female in lores ("Gyakutenno Megami", "X-Saber Anu Piranha"). Some monsters only have an overtly feminine appearance ("Dryad", "Mystical Elf"), are members of a female archetype or series ("Amazoness", "Harpie"), or are presumed female based on their voice or role in the anime or manga ("Ancient Fairy Dragon", "Gravekeeper's Assailant"). Others are androgynous or ambiguously female in appearance, but could be either male or female ("Jain, Lightsworn Paladin").

A few female cards have names that use masculine word forms, even where a feminine form is widely-known and used ("Fire Sorcerer", which uses "Sorcerer" instead of "Sorceress").

Female cards, as a group, have occasionally had a role of some significance in the anime, manga, and video games: in the manga and anime, "Shadow of Eyes" allowed a female monster to use pheromones to tempt male monsters into Attack Position; in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL manga, "Number 22: Zombiestein" has an effect that prevents it from attacking female monsters; and in Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories, some monsters can be Fusion Summoned by using female materials, including "Mystical Sand", "Queen of Autumn Leaves", "Nekogal #2", and "Dark Witch". A few of the early video games feature cards whose effects specifically affect or exclude female cards, as well.
