In many stories, the presence of an antagonist is necessary to create the necessary contrast with the central characters, since the character playing the role of the villain not only establishes a central conflict, but also acts as a parallel to the main character.
Considering the importance of villains, the resource Honeysanime has compiled a list of 10 of the most interesting anime antagonists, and you can check it out below.
10. Hiro from Inuyashiki (Inuyashiki: Last Hero)
As a child, Hiro seemed like the most ordinary child, but the fate of other people he hardly cared about. However, after a fatal event occurs in the life of a young man and he gains access to a completely new body, human lives cease to have at least some value for Hiro, which is followed by the absolutely ruthless and brutal actions of this character.
9. Sosuke Aizen from Bleach
Despite the screen of calmness and confidence, in the soul of Aizen lies only a desire for power, and the price that will have to be paid for it does not matter. Having betrayed the closest people, this villain devoted himself entirely to finding an artifact that could give him incredible power.
8. Sato from “Inhuman” (Ajin: Demi-human)
A former American soldier who retired in disgrace from the military after endangering his squad. Once in Japan, Sato begins to engage in terrorist activities, covering up his actions with noble motives. However, behind the mask of a great strategist, there is an ordinary maniac enjoying the suffering of others.
7. Griffith from Berserk
Manic obsessed with the childish idea of becoming the ruler of his own state, Griffith spends all his youth trying to rally a gang of loyal friends around him. With them, the character, thanks to incredible charisma and outstanding strategic skills, makes many victories. But at some point the fate of fate takes everything from Griffith, and the only chance to return what was lost is to literally send all those who previously idolized him to the underworld. To some, such a moral dilemma may have seemed insoluble, but for Griffith the choice was obvious.
6. Yuno Gasai from “Future Diary” (Mirai Nikki)
If at the beginning of the story it may seem to you that Yuno is a somewhat mentally unstable quiet man, then later, gradually revealing her past, you will lose any doubts. This girl is a real maniac. And if it comes to a person dear to her, then Yuno is ready to go over their heads, in the most literal sense.
5. Sibyl system from “Psycho-Pass” (Psycho-Pass)
“Sibyl” is a system created from a collective consciousness, created on the basis of several hundred real human brains. The essence of the whole venture is massive control over society with the aim of its maximum decriminalization. But despite good intentions, the system is devoid of almost any moral norms, due to which the border between the conventional “good” and “evil” disappears altogether.
4. All for One from “My Hero Academy” (Boku no Hero Academy)
Disfigured and mutilated by battles with his worst enemy, All for One has a dangerous quirk – the ability to steal other people’s abilities and later use them far from good. There are no moral guidelines for this character, and strength is the highest reward. All for One seeks to rebuild society, turn it upside down, rekindle between Villains and Heroes.
3. Father from “Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood”
At its core, the Father is an almost ideal reflection of the true divine essence, embodied in the image of an immortal alchemist. Striving for the highest power, the Father is ready for mass murder in order to sacrifice souls.
2. Nagato from “Naruto: Hurricane Chronicles” (Naruto Shippuden)
After experiencing the pain of loss from the loss of loved ones and friends, the young man once known as Nagato and led by good ideals about creating peace and harmony is completely changed. By adopting the name Payne, this villain does not deviate from his worldview, instead, simply ceases to reckon with any people standing in his way. And despite the fact that after the fateful meeting with Naruto, Pain’s nihilistic ideas are destroyed, his strength and will, capable of instilling fear in the hearts of the most powerful opponents, still deserve respect.
1. Major from “Hellsing Ultimate” (Hellsing Ultimate)
The Major is an almost indestructible cyborg who was to lead an army of ancient vampires during World War II. However, the defeat of the German forces led to the fact that the Major had to hide along with the remnants of his immortal warriors. In this character, at least minimal positive qualities were not reflected, but his bloodthirstiness and lack of principle will be enough to compete with any of the villains presented above.
