Who is the most suitable to be waifu in Zenless Zone Zero?

Which female character in Zenless Zone Zero is the best waifu? I bet you're curious about this topic-otherwise, why would you click in? Let's dive into why they are (or aren't) perfect waifu candidates!

This article reflects purely subjective opinions, and the rankings are in no particular order. If you have different thoughts or prefer other character traits, we'd love to hear them. Please, Proxies, take this as lighthearted entertainment and enjoy the discussion!

1. If Nicole Demara were your Waifu

First, let's talk about Nicole Demara. I think Nicole would make a great girlfriend-her cuteness, sexiness, and openness definitely make life with her interesting. However, she's not the best fit for a waifu, since a marital relationship is different from a romantic one.

As a waifu, Nicole would definitely bring you daily surprises and shocks. If your salary were in her hands, it'd be more thrilling than a trip to the casino. Your savings would be like 'Schrödinger's cat'-you'd never know when the account balance is positive or negative. So, Nicole, the 'I have a plan' idea queen, is better suited as a girlfriend.

2. If Anby Demara were your Waifu

Now let's talk about another member of the Cunning Hares, Anby Demara. While Anby has some traits of a 'mysterious girl,' her calm demeanor is more likely a result of her rigorous training. As someone who loves watching movies in New Eridu, her inner world is definitely not as quiet as her outward appearance suggests.

So personally, I think as long as you're not someone who craves an overly sweet and romantic life, being with Anby would make you quite happy! If you're reasonable, conflicts between you two are unlikely. Even though Anby works under Nicole, her salary is stable, and Nicole isn't stingy with benefits as a boss. Your life together might not be filled with passionate love, but it will definitely be peaceful and warm. And if you're also a movie lover, Anby is even more the perfect waifu candidate.

The only risks are that her job carries some danger, and you'd definitely worry when she's out on missions. Plus, if you ever argue, you'd definitely lose the fight.

3. If Ellen Joe were your Waifu

Ellen Joe has many great qualities-she's cool on the outside but warm on the inside, and despite her incredible strength, she never flaunts it. She even has a cute side when she's off duty.

However, even with all these advantages, she's not someone just anyone can handle. For starters, the reason she doesn't let people touch her tail is to avoid seriously injuring them, which already hints at the risks of getting intimate with her after marriage. If she accidentally swings her tail at you in the heat of the moment, you might end up in the hospital.

4. If Corin Wickes were your Waifu

Now let's look at Corin-obedient, hardworking, and always humble. If you're a lazy person, Corin is definitely the best waifu candidate. She'll take care of all the work and house chores, and even carefully ask if there's anything she could do better. It's easy to imagine the kind of 'corrupting' power she has.

The only thing to worry about is that if you really push her too far, she might not be immune to turning dark. Given her weapon, it's best not to gamble on that one-in-a-million chance. Also, there's another issue-you'll need to be patient, or else you'll have to explain everything to Officer Zhu Yuan!

5. If Nekomiya Mana were your Waifu

Nekomata is definitely a character with great potential. She's smart, sensible, and incredibly flexible. Both her adorable appearance and cheerful personality suggest she'll make an excellent waifu in the future.

The only issue, just like with Anby, is that her job comes with risks.

6. If Alexandrina Sebastiane were your Waifu

Although Rina is both a maid and an older sister figure, her nature as a ghost might make some people uncomfortable. On the surface, she seems like a great waifu candidate, but I think most people wouldn't be able to handle her behavior-she'd quickly take control of the pace. Every aspect of your life would be led by her, and before you know it, you'd be under her influence.

If it were me, I wouldn't choose her; being friends with Rina might be a better option.

7. If Koleda Belobog were your Waifu

Although Koleda has great potential in many aspects, she's bound to become a highly capable and powerful woman in the future. She's already in charge of a massive enterprise, one that involves heavy engineering work. So, in the future, she might not be the type that an ordinary person could handle.

Of course, if you're open to non-traditional roles-staying at home to provide her with a safe haven-then I think she'd make an excellent waifu!

8. If Grace Howard were your Waifu

Grace is probably the character I least recommend as a waifu in the entire Zenless Zone Zero. And honestly, it's unlikely she'd ever become someone's waifu. This woman is borderline obsessed with machinery, making it hard to imagine her showing enough interest in people. Even if, by some twist of fate, she became your waifu, could you really accept the gap between her coldness toward humans and her passion for machines? The more I think about it, the more I feel it's a shame.

9. If Zhu Yuan were your Waifu

Although I really like Zhu Yuan, I have to say that marrying her would be quite demanding. She's not only a workaholic but also an exceptional police officer. Of course, if you can bring out her softer side, the time spent with her would still be incredibly warm and fulfilling.

10. If Qingyi were your Waifu

Qingyi? Not recommended. Her mental age is hard to determine, and her body is no longer that of an ordinary human. Cyber enthusiasts might adore her, but for most people, her aura alone will remind you of a highly respected elder. Being around her might either heal you or completely transform you. It's really hard to imagine viewing her as a waifu.

11. If Piper Wheel were your Waifu

Next up is Piper, who is somewhat similar to Qingyi, but Piper is definitely more mature in terms of personality. Whether it's her physical appearance or her gang-style behavior in the wild, she also has a youthful and vibrant side. There's nothing wrong with having Piper as your waifu.

12. If Luciana de Montefio were your Waifu

Lucy, as a rebellious rich girl, has all the typical flaws of a wealthy heiress-like being strong-willed, self-centered, and often quite capricious. But trust me, people's minds change with age and experience. She's smart and, deep down, not lacking in empathy. Eventually, she'll have to take responsibility for her family's vast fortune. In other words, marrying Lucy not only means a wild, free, and joyful youth, but also stepping straight into success once she's done having her fun.

13. If Caesar King were your Waifu

Next up is Caesar, who is absolutely one of the best waifu candidates in the game. Why? She's beautiful, sexy, and incredibly emotional. On the inside, she's as passionate as fire and has a serious romantic streak, constantly dreaming of rose-colored fantasies.

I believe she'll match whatever kind of romance you're looking for, and as a leader, she relies on her personal charm and formidable strength. Even though she oversees a sizable gang, she doesn't need to handle the day-to-day trifles. Being with her means living freely every day, and just imagining that wild kind of romance is enough to make anyone envious.

What's even better is that she never plays mind games, and you don't even have to worry about her taking control. This is a trait that none of the other strong women have-definitely a plus!

14. If Burnice White were your Waifu

Burnice, this spicy girl, is perfect for those who don't want to overthink and just want to enjoy their youth to the fullest. Being with her means every day will be carefree and fun. Whether she's suitable as a waifu ultimately depends on each person's perspective.

15. If Soldier 11 were your Waifu

I think Soldier 11 is less suitable as a waifu compared to Anby. As an active-duty soldier-and a brainwashed one at that-her workaholic nature is even more extreme than Zhu Yuan's. While Zhu Yuan pursues peace and happiness (though she has to maintain it herself), Soldier 11 sees herself as a weapon. It's just too difficult unless you have the ability to completely change her-otherwise, it's better to forget it.

16. If Jane Doe were your Waifu

Jane's biggest issue is the nature of her work-it's too risky and unstable. Plus, she genuinely enjoys this line of work and the thrill of living on the edge. So, Jane is definitely not a suitable waifu candidate, and she likely wouldn't want to settle down and create vulnerabilities by starting a family.

That's why she's both an unlikely and unrecommended choice. However, she'd make a great dangerous girlfriend or lover.

17. If Astra Yao were your Waifu

Let's talk about Astra and Evelyn. As a celebrity, Astra has excellent qualities in every aspect-she's kind, genuine, and doesn't have the typical diva attitude or flaws. She seems like an outstanding choice. However, Astra's issue is her unwillingness to give up her career as a star; it's become an integral part of her life. So, rather than settling down, she'd probably prefer to live freely, continuing to sing and touch the hearts of many.

18. If Evelyn Chevalier were your Waifu

After the incident, Evelyn has essentially been 'redeemed,' and her role has officially become Astra's bodyguard and manager. Aside from her busy schedule and limited free time, she's otherwise an excellent choice for a waifu in every aspect.

Although, based on the story's background, Eve's age is definitely not as young as she looks, her fitness and self-care are impeccable-so as long as you don't mind, it's fine. Given her life experiences, the fact that she's maintained her humanity and spirit shows that her love for life surpasses that of most people. Being with her would undoubtedly be filled with romance. Plus, despite being a strong woman, she doesn't have a controlling nature, so your time together would still be relaxed and happy.

19. If Hoshimi Miyabi or Tsukishiro Yanagi were your Waifu

Miyabi is just too much of a "martial arts fanatic." While you can guide her in anything by framing it as 'training,' this ultimately isn't a normal or healthy way of communication. So, life with her might come with unexpected challenges, and you'd need to be able to accept all of that.

Other than that, she has nothing but strengths. Not only does she have great potential for growth, but she's also a refined lady from a prestigious family.

The benefits of having Tsukishiro Yanagi as a waifu are obvious, though her other traits aren't particularly standout. She's a classic strong woman with a bit of a workaholic streak, leaving her with little free time. However, under normal circumstances, you could view her as a high-level corporate professional. I think most people would agree that Yanagi is a great fit for the waifu role.

The above is my subjective take on the main female characters introduced so far in Zenless Zone Zero. People often talk about "2D waifus," but I wonder if any of you Proxies have truly thought about what it would be like if they were your waifu? Of course, these scenarios vary from person to person-who do you like the most?
