Abstract: Legend of Heroes-Trails of Cold Steel is a representative work of Japanese style role-playing games. As the name suggests, the game takes the fictional European continent in the middle ages as the stage and depicts the growth path of the hero. The new female, which is quite different from the traditional feminine image, constitutes a part of the female group in the game. In order to reveal the deep creative thoughts of the heroine image contained in the works, this paper takes the series of games of Legend of Heroe-Trails of Cold Steel as the cultural text, and analyzes the typical female images in the series by using the method of Japanese ideological history, taking the female swordsman, saint, maid and female teacher as the objects of analysis. Through this analysis and interpretation, we can not only reveal the deep thoughts of Japanese games from the ideological level, clarify the unique cultural orientation of Japanese style role-playing games, but also provide a new perspective for the creation and research of Chinese games.

Key words: new female, thoughts of works, cultural orientation
