OK, hi everyone! *waves* I'm sort of a lurker here. This is my first 記事 in this spot. I haven't watched 塔の上のラプンツェル または the Princess and the Frog (because both 映画 came out when I was studying for my exams. Damn!), so I won't include Tiana または Rapunzel in this list. I probably will incorporate them in a later list, once I've watched both movies.
Anyway, so here are my favourite princesses (starting from the least favourite one.) I'll also write what I think is their main characteristic.
#8
Snow White
"The Sweet Princess"
I first watched Snow White when I was six. I thought she was just too...sweet. I know that sounds odd. Her voice, her looks, everything. TOO SWEET. For me, there's two kinds of figurative sweetness. There's melt-your-heart sweetness, like Bambi. However, there's sickeningly sweet sweetness. And that's Snow White. Her voice made me want to break something. If あなた could get diabetes from listening to something sweet, just listen to Snow White's voice.
(BTW, what happened to the turtle? I'm glad Snow got her prince and her 城 in the sky, but I sat through the whole thing needing to know the whereabouts of the turtle.)
I guess I just didn't like her because I was a tomboy, and Snow White is definitely the opposite of a tomboy.

Aurora
"The Beautiful Princess"
Another one I watched when I was little. In fact, Sleeping Beauty was the only DP movie I had on tape. Aurora is blessed with the gift of beauty. I definitely enjoyed her もっと見る than I did Snow White. She is a princess, but sometimes she comes off as a queen. And very beautiful. I loved the vision of her which Maleficiant gave Prince Phillip...golden hair, long eyelashes and red lips. However, I think Aurora wasn't 与えられた much screen time, compared to the other DPs. If she had had もっと見る screen time, I would have liked her A LOT better.

シンデレラ
"The Gentle Princess"
Honestly, I don't have much opinion of Cinderella. The film focuses もっと見る on her story, than her actual character. My opinion of her is that she's gentle, kind and compassionate. However, I wish she'd もっと見る backbone in standing up to her stepsisters and stepmother. She has a horse, she could get it to kick them または something. または poison their dresses, that was a huge favourite in Victorian era. At least DO SOMETHING to get back at them.

ジャスミン
"The Kick-Ass Princess"
It may come as a shock that I actually like Jasmine, despite placing her in the middle of my list. When watching Aladdin, I focus もっと見る attention on Aladdin, Genie, and Abu than Jasmine. However, I think ジャスミン looks out for herself, is resourceful, fiery and intelligent.
#4
Belle
"The Bookworm Princess"
A lot of people say Belle's intelligent. I'm not sure about that. She reads, yeah, but 読書 doesn't equal to intelligence. She was 読書 a fairytale, not a book about rocket science または quantum physics! But I 愛 her compassion for the Beast, her 愛 for her father, and her ability to not judge a person によって their looks.
#3
Ariel
"The Curious Princess"
I loved Ariel as a kid, and I still do. I find that no matter what the situation, I'm always on her side. Ariel is very easy to love, and she has もっと見る human experiences than most on this list, despite not even being human.
Ariel: "I'm sixteen years old! I'm not a child!"
King Triton: "Don't あなた take that tone of voice with me young lady, as long as あなた remain in my ocean, あなた obey my rules!"
That exchange made me really root for her. How many of us, as children and teens, have been through this same situation? I admit, she's done pretty stupid things, like defying her father's orders and forming an alliance with the sea witch. But in the end, Ariel shows that we are all flawed and despite our many flaws, we are capable of 愛 and being human.
#2
Pocahontas
The Passionate Princess
Pocahontas is very much of a woman compared to the other princesses. She is the most beautiful of all the princesses, both inside and out. She has an air of maturity about her, yet she's so freedom loving and spiritual. I must admit, it was the song "Colours of the Wind" which made me fall in 愛 with the movie, and subsequently the princess. I 愛 the passion she has for everything she does, especially in her 愛 with John Smith. In the end, she chose to remain with her people. Pocahontas watching John sailing away from her truly the most heart-breaking moment in any ディズニー Princess film for me, I actually cried during that. I also 愛 her moments of fun.
Pocahontas taught me that "if あなた walked the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things あなた never knew, あなた never knew."
#1
ムーラン
The メリダとおそろしの森 Princess
ムーラン had me from the start. I liked it that she wasn't like the other princesses. She isn't the most beautiful, または the most witty. However, she is the bravest of them all. ムーラン doesn't wait around for princes to sweep her off her feet または for glass slippers to fit her. ムーラン actually gets out there and makes things happen. She loves deeply and it's not some romance, it's a great 愛 for her family, her フレンズ and her country. She saved China, need I say more?
Anyway, so here are my favourite princesses (starting from the least favourite one.) I'll also write what I think is their main characteristic.

If I choose wrong, I will feel my Father’s wrath.
He simply won’t understand,
And will insist that I do as he commands.
Deep down in my ハート, 心 I know that it’s right,
And I am willing to put up a fight.
I fell for a pale face.
The feelings I have can’t be erased.
I have shown him all the Colors(色) of the wind,
And he was finally able to comprehend.
We could have one adventure after the other.
I never want to be with another.
I told my Father I don’t want to marry Kocoum,
But he doesn’t know where I’m coming from.
I have to keep our two worlds from going to war.
They must know we don’t have to fight anymore.
I must create peace,
または the hate will just increase.
They have to see my side,
または else our 愛 will be denied.
