S-Tier Characters

9/10 (in Order)
1 Yotsuba KOIWAI

Yotsuba KOIWAI

Few characters are as fun to watch just do things as Yotsuba Koiwai. No other character can make the mundane quite as exciting as her.

2 Meruem

Meruem

Was my No.1 antagonist for a solid 2 1/2 years, still unbelievable and as compelling as ever. Great character arc and has some of the best scenes in anime period.

3 Tomoya OKAZAKI

Tomoya OKAZAKI

Maybe the most human character in media, I applaud the author for writing such a realistic, relatable and loveable MC.

4 Kagura

Kagura

Balances being absurdly funny with having some of the rawest rage and action sequences in anime unlike any other character. Being this good at comic relief and legitimately frightening at the same time is rare.

5 Vincent LAW

Vincent LAW

Ridiculously complex, a feat in terms of character writing. Insane to think about what makes up his character.

6 Yuuri

Yuuri

Super fun and charming, my favorite airhead. Her and Chito are a lovely duo.

7 Punpun PUNYAMA

Punpun PUNYAMA

Relatable....too relatable.

8 Guts

Guts

Legendary character, what a journey, what beautiful inner conflicts. He is the face of Seinen and arguably Manga overall for a reason.

9 Phosphophyllite

Phosphophyllite

Incredibly complex and utterly layered, Phos' journey from front to back is a masterclass in character writing and they deserve all the praise.

10 Violet EVERGARDEN

Violet EVERGARDEN

What a beautiful character, her progression is amazing to witness.

11 Crona

Crona

Very layered, very relatable, fits the story like a glove. Simply phenomenal writing being showcased in every scene they're in.

12 Killua ZOLDYCK

Killua ZOLDYCK

Endlessly fun, but also utterly badass when needed. Him and Gon make for one of the most entertaining duos in media.

13 Kotarou KATSURA

Kotarou KATSURA

Brilliant character, mostly due to him being perfect comic relief time and time again, but sometimes that's enough. On top of this, he can also be serious when needed.

14 Wolfgang GRIMMER

Wolfgang GRIMMER

One of Urasawa's many masterpieces. From the backstory to his entire character arc, Grimmer is simply a work of art.

15 Monkey D. Luffy

Monkey D. Luffy

It's fucking Monkey D. Luffy man, what can I even say that hasn't been said already? Funny, entertaining, badass, goofy, he does it all with ease and that basically every chapter.

16 Yuu KAMISHIRO

Yuu KAMISHIRO

One of the best character journeys ever. Really really human character that pretty much everyone can relate to to some degree.

17 Gyro ZEPPELI

Gyro ZEPPELI

Super fun, witty and overall a joy to accompany on this journey. Very natural and his backstory is one of the best in JoJo's.

18 Mugen

Mugen

More in line with the typical anime protagonist and definitely nothing groundbreaking in terms of writing but MAN is he fun to watch mess around.

19 Jin

Jin

A bit more layered than his frenemy-partner Mugen, but overall slightly less enjoyable on his own. Most of the enjoyment comes from their dynamic.

20 Eren JAEGER

Eren JAEGER

Did a complete 180 for me after S4, used to like him a bit, know I LOVE him.

21 Roy MUSTANG

Roy MUSTANG

Layered, badass, steals every scene he is in. What's not to love about this guy?

22 Kishou ARIMA

Kishou ARIMA

Despite rarely appearing in the series, when he does, he steals the show 100%. Conceptually and within the story's context he is near flawless.

23 Kakashi HATAKE

Kakashi HATAKE

Very layered and just overall super cool, how can you not like him?

24 Shigeo KAGEYAMA

Shigeo KAGEYAMA

So fun and wholesome, though certainly not without engaging internal conflict, this is how an MC should be imo.

25 Rosinante DONQUIXOTE

Rosinante DONQUIXOTE

Won my heart over in 6 chapters, Oda you're a madman.

26 Kamina

Kamina

Downright inspiring, does so much in a pretty short amount of time.

27 Nadeshiko KAGAMIHARA

Nadeshiko KAGAMIHARA

Way too wholesome, makes me smile every time she's on screen.

28 Musashi MIYAMOTO

Musashi MIYAMOTO

Amazing journey and definitely a character that should be experienced by everyone.

29 Obito UCHIHA

Obito UCHIHA

Troubled, yet understandable. Phenomenal execution and dynamic with the rest of the cast.

30 Kiritsugu EMIYA

Kiritsugu EMIYA

Such a conflicted character, really mesmerizing to watch on screen and he definitely carried Fate/Zero HARD.

31 Light YAGAMI

Light YAGAMI

A legend, for a good reason too. Exceptional concept, executed perfectly with one of the best endings to a character ever.

32 Spike SPIEGEL

Spike SPIEGEL

So cool, so smooth, so badass. How can you not like this dude?

33 Joichiro NISHI

Joichiro NISHI

The biggest piece of shit in the series (and Gantz isn't really know for having lovable characters anyway), but I can't help it, I really like his abrasive nature.

34 Chito

Chito

Her much more logical approach may seem like she'd be the less funny one, but it actually makes for some of the funniest interactions in the series.

35 Faputa

Faputa

One of the best backstories, and that's all they really need to work. Apart from that, also some of the best scenes in all of S2.

36 Ai COLEMAN

Ai COLEMAN

Can't even begin to describe how complex this guy is, just know that I have nothing but respect for Q Hayashida for crafting such an elaborate and sick character.
