I thought that since Merida has joined that I should talk about the most heroic डिज़्नी Princesses. I'll be judging their actions based off not only the original फिल्में but in the sequels and TV series'. Keep in mind that this is just my opinion and that just because like per say I think they're a damsel in distress and not that heroic doesn't mean that I hate them. Anyway please leave a टिप्पणी दे and enjoy.

11.Aurora

Okay I don't like her but I don't hate her and this is kind of part of why I don't like her. First of all her dream is basically to be a damsel in distress, be saved द्वारा her true love, and live happily ever after while doing nothing, which she achieves. First of all she's basically been in distress her whole life, even though she didn't even know it. I know it's not her fault she gets hypnotized but I'm counting it anyway because आप don't have to have free will to be in distress, they have a word for that, it's called kidnapping. She's basically in distress for the rest the of movie sleeping. But हे her prince is a damsel too, at least she has an excuse, she's cursed. But she doesn't really do anything heroic because of her lack of screen time and has no specific characteristics या personality for that matter. Plus even the characters I think are damsel's on this सूची at least have some sort of heroics in them.

10.Snow White

She gets points over Aurora because she does help a bird and she has और screen time. She's in distress for most of the movie because her step-mother is trying to kill her. She runs in the woods and her mind is making her feel like she's in even और danger. She eats the poison सेब and falls into a deep sleep until her true प्यार comes to set her free. So yeah she's a damsel in distress but maybe if the situation demanded it she'd fight back like सिंडरेला did in a twist in time since I do think she has the potential, to some extent.

9.Belle

I think she's a pretty big damsel and the only reason she's higher than Snow White is because of how she has some heroic moments. So I think I might as well get the damsel stuff out of the way then get to her heroics. In the first movie she runs away into the dangerous woods (gee what a genius) and is attacked द्वारा भेड़िया and saved द्वारा Beast and later she gets captured and locked up द्वारा Gaston and saved द्वारा Chip. Seriously? A five साल old प्याली, सिलाई that's basically just a head! Anyway in the सेकंड movie she ends up in the ice cold water after attempting to save Chip and after they're saved she gets pulled back and is saved द्वारा Beast. In the third movie she's not really in distress and is usually helping to save others. In the original she does save her father's life, Beast from the cold snow, her father from the cold, from the crazy house, and Beast from falling off a the castle. Belle's a little और useful and able to save herself in the सेकंड movie because when Forte is taking over she saves herself and her friends. So संपूर्ण, कुल मिलाकर a damsel in distress but has her heroic moments. She's not one of the most useful characters but she's not useless at all, well not completely. But I really like her so I'm not hating on her.

8.Cinderella

We're out of the complete damsels in distress and are not in the middle ground ones that are kind of damsels in distress. सिंडरेला was kind of in distress her whole life because she was abused द्वारा her step-family. She needed her फ्रेंड्स to make her dress so she could go to the ball, her dress is ruined, and she needs her fairy godmother to fix everything for her so she can go to the ball. She gets locked in her room and she doesn't even try to escape, I mean she could have tried to break the door down या pick the lock. The whole story of सिंडरेला wouldn't have a happy ending if it wasn't for the prince marrying सिंडरेला and taking her away from her life. The main reason she's higher than Belle and the classic princesses is because of the third movie. She's in distress and actually has to save herself but even in the third movie she has some moments where she needs saving, but not a lot.

7.Merida

When we saw the trailers and the posters for ब्रेव the advertising kept portraying her as this absolutely heroic bada** who gets stuff done, doesn't need anyone to save her, and saves the दिन and defeats the villain. Unfortunately that's not the truth about her. I wouldn't call her weak but she does have damsel moments and doesn't really do anything that bada** या even that heroic. I mean the ऐरो scene is bada** and she does save her mom like once but she usually needs saving. When she first meets Mordu he almost gets her and needs her moms help, he almost gets her again and needs her mom to save her again, she gets locked in a room and needs her brothers to save her, and Mordu keeps on trying to kill her and her mom keeps on having to save her. However I think she has the potential to be as heroic and bada** as मूलन and Kim Possible since she does have the skills, she was just badly portrayed in the movie. People say if she had a प्यार interest that it would've make her lose her bada**ness so this time it's her mom who makes her lose it. This one of the many BIG reasons why they need to make a sequel, to make her as heroically bada** as she was suppose to be. So to me she's both a damsel in distress and heroic, too bad there's not a word for that.

6.Pocahontas

Okay as of now we're to the princesses I think are actually heroic and aren't damsels in distress. Actually she only does one heroic thing but it is pretty big. She not only saves John Smith, she saves her people and the white men from war. She dared to go against her people in order to help them. She knew the white men were dangerous but that they needed her help, especially John. However other than that action she doesn't really do anything else heroic compared to the others, even though it's a pretty big action.

5.Tiana

When The Princess and The Frog came out it was when they started having the डिज़्नी Princes be the damsels in distress and the डिज़्नी Princesses be the ones who have to save them. Naveen, our dimwitted hero, is constantly getting into trouble and always needing saving, which Tiana has to save him. She saves both herself and Naveen from the alligators to start with. She saves Naveen again after a gun is pointed at him. Let's also not forget her biggest heroic deed of all, the fact that she actually defeated and killed the villain. Out of all the डिज़्नी Princesses on her and मूलन have actually done that. She's not higher because the others are और bada** and do और impressive things than her.

4.Rapunzel

Again another case of the डिज़्नी Prince being the damsel in distress and the डिज़्नी Princess having to constantly save him. I mean for a girl who just went out into the world she's pretty impressive. I think it's pretty cool how the "experienced" thief is actually rescued on a regular bases द्वारा the "inexperienced" girl. I mean there's where the thugs captured him, he was almost captured द्वारा Maximus, when they're trapped in the cave, almost captured द्वारा Maximus again, and when he died she brought him back to life. She's impressive and really bada**. Plus I प्यार how she was actually willing to give up her freedom to save Flynn, that's just so selfless and heroic. However she's not higher because of a few damsel moments and the others did things that impressed me more.

3.Jasmine

I'm mostly basing this off of the TV series and and third movie because that's where she's really heroic and bada**. On every adventure she goes on she's basically kicking butt and a lot of the time doesn't even need to be rescued. There's even an episode in the TV series that is actually all about her and how heroic and bada** she is. She defeats the villain and saves अलादीन and Genie. Plus I प्यार these two lines she says "Eventually I always get my man" and "Next time know who you're dealing with". Mozenrath really shouldn't underestimate her because she's totally kicka**. Also in the third movie, although minor, she actually fights the forty thieves like it was nothing. I प्यार when she punched a guy at her wedding and कहा "That was for ruining my wedding", never mess with this girl on her special day. I considered putting her in the चोटी, शीर्ष 2 but the और I thought about it the और I had to consider her in the original. She does save Aladdin's life once but after that she constantly has to be saved द्वारा him, if it wasn't for the TV series and the third movie she'd only be above Belle and maybe Cinderella.

2.Ariel

I promise I'm not being biased for having her up so high, I honestly think she's both incredibly heroic and a bada**. I mean for starters she constantly goes out on adventures, gets herself and फ़्लॉन्डर, अशुद्धि in danger, and always saves them because of her cleverness and strength. Plus I प्यार how she's the डिज़्नी Princess that started the whole heroic and modern डिज़्नी Princesses, I mean she saves her prince twice. First she saves him from drowning and secondly she saves him from being killed द्वारा Ursula. I'm surprised they didn't make her the first डिज़्नी Princess to defeat the villain instead of Mulan, she'd probably get much less criticism but we'll get to that later. In the सेकंड movie she saves her daughter and later Eric. Even in that awful prequel, Ariel's Beginning, that I don't even consider cannon, she's really heroic and bada**. In the TV series she keeps on going on several adventures and is always able to save herself and her friends. She even constantly defeats the villains, so I guess that kind of makes up for her not defeating the villain in the original. That's where we get to our problem, I think if Eric had to defeat the villain to be memorable they could have had them both work together and defeat Ursula together. Another reason she's not higher is because number 1 is just unbeatable out of all the डिज़्नी Princesses.

1.Mulan

आप all knew that this was coming, I mean any idiot could have seen this coming. I प्यार for one that she starts out weak but ends up becoming a total heroic bada** legend. First of all she defeated the Hun Army, well most of them, द्वारा shooting a तोप at the avalanche, that's really clever. Even after everyone turn on her she decides to help them anyway, that's pretty heroic to make a choice like that, even when it could mean she could die. During all of this she kicks everyone's butt, she's awesome! Do I even need to mention the fact that she's the first डिज़्नी Princess to defeat the villain? That alone should speak for itself. She saved all of China, and even though she didn't have do it constantly, she saved her प्यार interest. I प्यार how she's basically the only डिज़्नी character who's never needed saving, not even once! The only animated character that's और heroic and bada** than her is Kim Possible and that's only because she saves the world on a regular bases.
