    • @minzblatt
      @minzblatt 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      The animation and the modern iconography is top notch though. Even as a seasoned anime enthusiast that doesnt hop on every trend there is, I pretty much liked the setting of this one. And I disagree with the premise that a good character design for a protagonist has to be one way or another. As long as the character is believable and undergoes difficulties that changes that character in a manner that is similarly believable for the recipient, it is a good fictional character. Life is a long long process and you dont start out with the old cynical anti-hero or the smooth OP character that wants his/her revenge. I mean you could, but you would at least need to give him/her some backstory at some point. In Demon Slayer, the audience is younger (duh!), so the backstory is where the story begins. No foul, no harm - as long as the character gets those critical adjustments along the journey. I saw that happening with Naruto and a little with Goku. These characters dont have to be one-size that fits all.

    Mob would be a good pick, but Reigan would be a perfect pick! How many anime characters do you know that can BS their way into a stronghold of dangerous psychics and make it all the way to the final boss without a single scratch??? And he just got better and better from there, from normal-guy punching the second strongest Claw member into submission (though that was admittedly circumstantial) to trying to pull one over on the number one, and even struggling through a tantrum from the actual strongest psychic around Mob just to have a heart to heart with him! Not to mention how great he is outside of battles, with his many talents and his own relatable as heck flaws!

    I think it is very different to have a Iconic character list and a best character list. And even though they kind of made a "most iconic" list, they also put Johan from Monster in 4th place, and that is no where near as iconic, even though a very good character.
    And in a list where it is Iconic characters, Kirito actually deserves to be there. He might be the most hated character in anime history, not for being despicable like the Bitch from Shield Hero, but you get an immediate negative reaction when seeing Kirito. He reminds everyone of how good SOA could have been and how it turned into a harem anime with the most uninteresting OP protagonist. Kirito alone made so many people quit anime, he is infamous.

    Lelouch should definitely be above Light, IMO. Light is a very interesting character and is used masterfully to explore the mind of a narcissist with a God complex. Lelouch is so fascinating though. I love seeing him grow from a vengeful monster, to calous leader of men, to a God damn monster who is secretly the only person prepared to sacrifice himself to heal the wounds he and his family have inflicted on the world for generations. Also he kind reinforces my worldview but ya know we can't truly be objective about this stuff.

      @@armaanb.6566 vash is a pacifist in a world where violence is law. its a wild west type gunslinging world, and trouble follows vash because of the massive bounty on his head. sitting opposite him thematically are 2 forces, the villains who use violence and attempt to make vash do the same, and nicholas d wolfwood, a supposedly religious man who's taken up his own form of vigilante justice. i don't want to spoil anything because trigun is like def worth watching imo but the show loves to inspect what it means to be "godly" and how different kinds of people attempt to become such, whether it be through religion, power, upright morality, etc. there's also some attempts at criticizing good old money hoarding capitalists but this is largely contained within 1 arc.
      vash is like. maybe my favorite shonen mc and i am not shy about my hard biases towards trigun but trigun as a series is an incredibly engaging character study on him. plus the show is super charming, all the characters r super fun to watch be together, and the english dub is really good which is good for someone like me who struggles with subtitles bc of dyslexia lol

      Characters like Reinhard and Reuenthal are all great characters, yes. But in aspect of the best character I don't think anyone in LoGH could beat Yang Wen Li. While Reinhard drive the plot of the show, all LoGH characters (especially Reinhard) are pretty much driven by Yang.

    Gon? He was pretty much one of the worst if not the worst character in HxH. Killua, Hisoka, Leorio, Meruem, Kurapika. I'd understand if it was "top 25 most iconic characters", but the best? Where's Onizuka? Probably the #1 spot for me. Where's Okarin? Where are Akagi and Kaiji? Where's Gintoki? If we're talking about iconic, where's Ranma?
    They really dropped the ball with the whole "more than one per series", as well as failed to define what the list is about.

      @@adityannair3278 Have you not seen how he acted during the ant arc? Act like a restless hero, have everyone, especially Killua, clean up after him, take it out on them for taking care of what was supposed to be his responsibility. His whole character archetype pretty much fell apart when faced with things that don't magically get solved by blindly rushing into battle.
      EDIT: To clarify, I understand he was intentionally bad there. So him being bad was well-written... when you're lampshading how bad a character is, and do it really well, do they count as "best" or "worst"? Which once again ties back to my original statement that they failed to define what the list is about.

      @@adityannair3278 One of many - when he almost killed Morel and Killua had to stop him. Which kinda contradicts the whole "If you're on good terms with Gon, he will remain good". Or the whole quest after that arc to get Alluka to heal Gon. Sure, he defeated Pitou... but did he really need to? It didn't really accomplish anything other than his personal revenge.

    Given that this is an anime list and not a manga list I can understand some of these rankings. The repeats were just annoying though. But especially the Guts ranking, I can kind of see it if we're only looking at the anime. I only wish that Vash had been higher on the list. Vash and Kenshin played a big role in shaping my personality and who I wanted to be when I was watching these shows when I was younger.

    Speaking of Shounen characters they forgot Yusuke. Arguably one of the most standout protagonists in the demographic. Also they could have added other Shoujo besides alongwith Sailor Moon. Anyway I am kind of glad they didn't Subaru and Rudeus or any Isekai character. Their story in the anime isn't finished so it would feel wrong to put them in the list now.

Even though their stories are not over they already have gone through a tremendous amount of character development. Subaru and Rudeus have yet to reach the best part of their stories. Not to say they haven't developed. But it's not enough to warrant them a spot on this list.
