Npc🤡(for including Andrew)
@@b172shaikhmohammedsamifero3 Hope Andrew sees this bro 🙏
@@SomaStory can't really see well in jail can you?
What about Kayne West? His Nazi Arc was great
I finally decided to read Monster a couple years back and man, I don’t think I’d ever been that invested in something that I managed to finish it in a day, cutting sleep and all
Johan was absolutely incredible for an antagonist, urasawa was a master of character writing on all sides of the story
I’ll never be able to read it for the first time again, it was one of those stories for me
You should read 20th century boys
Code geass is the only one that also did that for me
The anime has more than 70 episodes though? That would make over a day and a half if you no-lifed completely.
@@sloth8866 manga exists my man
@@oscxrv8621 Oh god I didn't notice you say you read it. MY BAD, AHAHA.
Kira is the type of villain who wants nothing to do with the plot
He wants to live a quiet life.
I think thats one of the cool things about his character, he doesn't ACTUALLY want to live a quiet life. His stand ability is to blow people up (stand abilities reflecting the soul), and by the end of the arc, he's literally shouting his name through the streets of Morioh. He's such a maniac and a hypocrite, that it makes his character and actions feel super believable - and in a way - almost down to earth; He's the perfect neighborhood murderer to antagonize the slice-of-life-esque setting
@@ethanwashington6789nicely said
I’m so glad you put Pain in this list. Many people ignore Pain in favor of Madara and Obito but he as an antagonist with his views, ideology, philosophy, character aesthetics always stood out to me, especially his duality with Naruto. Btw you should check out Golden Kamuy. It has an amazing antagonist also called Lt Tsurumi.
Pain is still easily the most common pick I see, so imo it's closer to the other way around.
@@Reality-Distortion Pain(Nagato) is ironically the most well written out of all characters in Naruto lol
Pain is a cool character (if feeling a little shoe-horned in), but the arc itself becomes kind of ass at the end, and this is where I started losing interest in Naruto as a whole. I'm fine with the whole "talk no jutsu" thing, even if it feels kind of cheesy, but the fact that basically everyone just comes back to life at the end destroys all stakes the series had. It makes the whole arc, even the series in general redundant if nothing truly matters. Having a complex ideology destroyed by a "yeah, but" argument and then having a game-changing event cancelled out is weak writing.
@@frenchbaguetteoui aggred
I mean i like pain over madara it isn’t by much tho both are god tier characters
The fact that Ulquiorra is here, and above Aizen too made my day. I really love how much you enjoyed his character, and how he was used in the Hueco Mundo Arc. Ulquiorra is also my 3rd, only behind Griffith and Johan.
Bleach was one of my first manga and Ulquiorra was my favorite antagonist in the series.
I liked tousen...
Agreed, Ulqiuorra is easily one of the best characters in shonen also has one of the best character arcs. He's my second favorite character in bleach behind Gin.
Askeladd has to be one for me. He’s just a perfect character in my opinion
Agreed
He belongs to this list.
He is not really the villan, more like tragic hero
@@marodonthemoroneAgreed. He's a wonderful antagonist, but I feel villain doesn't accurately describe the point of his character
Not better than Johan lol
Griffith did everything wrong
Based.
Who cares bozo casca deserved that lmfaoooooooooo
Literally
Based
@NYX same, i understand his reasons for everything except the r@pe
All jojo main villains are just so well written.
They are charismatic,strong and take the show to a new level
The most brilliant part about Johan in my opinion is how impactful he is in spite of his relatively limited screen/page time. He really isn’t in the picture all that much, but his presence is ALWAYS felt. This to me is why he’s often described as “terrifying”. He’s built up as this monstrous amalgamation of evil, so when he does appear, you’re on the edge of your seat regardless of what’s actually going on, because you KNOW there’s so much happening beneath the surface. Anywhere Johan appears, carnage is soon to follow.
I really respect this top 20. Every antagonist chose had really good explanations for why they where given there position in the total ranking as well as the fact that its just a great vid. Everyone's opinion is gonna be different, but your list is very top tier
My top 20:
20. Dofflamingo
19. Bondrewd
18. Hisoka
17. Younger Toguro
16. Ulquiorra
15. Aizen
14. King Bradley
13. Askeladd
12. L
11. Utsuro
10. Enrico Pucci
9. Chrollo
8. Sensui
7. Yoshikage Kira
6. PAIN
5. Meruem
4. Griffith
3. Funny Valentine
2. Friend
1 .Johan Liebert.
Honourable mentions :
Major , Shogo Makishima , Shishio, Cell
Really love the King Bradley, Pucci and Major mentions
Valentine is GOATed
thats a pretty solid list
Utsuro is an amazing character 👍
no eren jaeger = garbage take
Femboys like Griffith and Johan always make the best villains.
Ulquiorra is a wonderful antagonists and the one I think best embodies Kubo's approach to Bleach in terms of both it's writing and the way it's illustrated. Aizen is great as well and very worthy of being as Iconic as he is.
One of my personal favorite antagonists in anime and manga is the Major from Hellsing. I really love how well he contrasts all three of the main characters and the message his character conveys: That being that a mere human with a unwavering conviction, can be the greatest Monster there is.
Can't wait to see the updated list(:
Glad to see Doflamingo on this list!
He isn't an underrated villain in the One Piece community but he is massively underrated when we talk about greatest villains in all anime/manga. Really glad to see that you gave him the respect that he deserves 👌
I recently finished Monster and in the zone at the moment. On YT I'm looking for more and more about Johann (I'm so awestruck). So I came across your videos about Johann and now watching this video... (What a convenient timing). It really amazes me the appreciation you have for Johann.
Bonus fact- Before Monster, I finished Berserk. So, I'm high on 2 of the greatest antagonists as well as stories.
I dont think i will ever like an antagonist more than i like Johan's character. Also can we talk about how Urasawa can write 2 absolutely perfect antagonists and not miss with them once? Hes so Goated.
Johan is the best antagonist ever in fiction..not only manga.
@@afrosamourai400 what! no lol
@@afrosamourai400 Book Moriarty (By Conan Doyle) shits on him. Johan is very well-written antagonist, by all means, but not the best.
Arguably (Personally, I prefer Friend) the best in manga/anime, but in fiction hell nah.
There’s classical characters literature that puts him to shame, an example was stated above.
@@lilityler1340 ya u prefer friend becuz he has done something but what johan was trying to do he could have done that easily but he doesn't care so he changed his goal just for character development and that's what makes him way higher than friend
My favorite of all time is Takasugi Shinsuke. His feelings are so strong and understandable. His pure hatred for what the world did to him and how he was unable to shoulder the pain that Gintoki was forced to face. He could not forgive Gintoki for what he did and that’s why he wanted to be the one to do it. He wanted to never forgive himself than never forgive Gintoki. And the fact Gintoki did it filled him with hatred that he never wanted. The ending to Gintama is by far the best to any series ever. I stand by that claim until One Piece ends.
And I say “it” do not spoil anything. If you’ve read or watched it you know what “it” is.
Finally, someone with taste. The build-up and playout to their confrontation was unforgettable
Couldnt make a better list myself, you said it all 👏
Aizen, Bondrewd, Ulquiorra. All good here, wrap it up. Solid list.
Great list!
im so happy that you are one of the few people that actually appreciate ulquiorra and his character. even though he was the main focus antagonist for the arrancar saga i feel he still doesnt get half the attention as other characters like grimmjow, byakuya, aizen, yhwach and all of them. i personally have him as my favorite antagonist❤
Mans a legend for adding Roberta the terminator
Man on joke i was about to comment smth about Crocodile and Blackbeard and then you said that 😂. Also I completely agree with you on the Monster point that it can be adapted into live action. As someone from Germany the whole story is actually quite similar to german crime tv shows like „Tatort“. Honestly a German adaptation would be so good. I mean a good chunk of the story already plays out in germany (btw I live in Frankfurt and I was so hyped that they were there towards the finale😂).
You know, looking at this list, I really REALLY hope that you'll get back to finishing Pandora Hearts some time soon, because it's one I could see actually managing its way into your favorites, for literally every aspect of manga, protagonist, antagonist etc. Especially given your top picks, because the villain in PH gives off a very similar feeling, at least for me.
*spoiler
isn't PH aint finished yet? i couldn't remember but im pretty sure.
@@alexamderhamiltom5238 Pandora Hearts released its final chapter in 2015, so 8 years ago, it's finished.
It's MochiJun's next work Vanitas no Carte that isn't complete yet and still ongoing (well, currently on hiatus)
@@animusswtor4822 i will check it later, thanks

@@obluda5609 ukrimj
Great list overall. Here are some of my faves who aren't in the list in no particular order. I just think they should be mentioned.
Zeke (Attack on Titan)
Reiner (Attack on Titan)
Chrollo(Hunter x Hunter)
Younger Toguro (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Shogo Makishima(Psycho Pass)
Father (FullMetal Alchemist)
Sensui (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Eto Yoshimura (Tokyo Ghoul(:re))
Seiko (Blood on the Tracks)
Tsukishima (Bleach)
Makishima 100%
In Tokyo Ghoul, I like Furuta more
@@carlosdanielcalderonmontoy3723same. Eto would be a close second.
Zeke is incredibly good...way better than yoshikage kira or even griffith...
I dont know there were pepl who liked uncle tsukishima 😅
i love how every entry has the same music, but pain gets his own theme because thats just how well naruto made his presence in every scene
My top 10
1. Griffith (Berserk)
2. Johan Liebert (Monster)
3. Nimura Furuta (Tokyo Ghoul)
4. Shogo Makishima (Psycho Pass)
5. Friend (20th Century Boys)
6. Funny Valentine (JoJo Part 7)
7. Pain (Naruto)
8. Sosuke Aizen (Bleach)
9. Yoshikage Kira (JoJo Part 4)
10. Hisoka (HxH)
Honourable mentions:
Meruem, Dolflamingo, Askelad, Shinobu Sensui, Garou, Makoto Sheshiou, Bondrewd, Younger Toguro, Madara Uchiha etc
Also day 8 of asking masked man to watch Psycho Pass S1
solid list my friend
@@merciiiii8101 thanks
Aizen would be lil higher (3-4) but W list.
Psycho pass is goated
Ooooh forgot hisoka was an antagonist.
I just finished Monster a couple of weeks back and man when I tell you how Johan liebert became one of my favorite villains, as I was watching monster seeing how manipulative he was as to have a kid contemplate suicide I was shook tbh
watch explaining Monter's Ending, goes even deeper in depth into Johan, and he'll be in your top 2
@@cosmicflower5891 yaa he all did was for his love for his sister.
I know I'm late but man... I love Monster. Honestly what truly got me to realize how good Johan was as a villain was the manipulation of Milos (The orphan that tried to help Grimmer who btw Grimmer best character don't @) and making the audience truly realize just how skilled he is in just... talking. He single handedly managed to crush the innocence of a child whose hope still held out for the mother he never truly had. That whole part in the manga as well as that episode in the anime (ep 49) was so horrific to watch. A little boy truly experiencing humanities WORST aspects, and at the end of it all... contemplating s*icide. Johan is truly and unequivocally one of if not the best antagonist I've had the pleasure of reading... ever.
One villain I believe belongs on a list like this is Shogo Makashima from Psycho Pass. The actions he takes throughout season 1 are absolutely heinous, but he stands out as not only being an antagonist who makes a lot of good points, but is arguably a necessary evil for correcting the course society has taken.
gotta love the respect put on jojo villains, really they dont miss with villains especially diavolo, kira and valentine
Makima is criminally underrated as a villain. I hope once all of Chainsaw Man gets adapted people will realize how S-tier she really is.
Agreed I actually found her more weird and intriguing than just a bad waifu, same thing with Ryo from Devilman
same opinion here. Shes definitely one of the best villains in anime
Honestly I don’t see the hype
@Leonhard Euler I think she's decent character and antagonist. Especially her foil is freedom, since she's the control devil, she despises anyone who has a free will and she controls everyone she's in contact with imo, prime example is denji, power, aki etc etc etc
@Leonhard Euler and she’s not a villain anymore as Nayuta
Not a manga but the dad from bastard is is one of my favourite antagonists ever, he scares the crao iutbif me ti this day lol. Also big w for mentioning roberta
Words cannot convey the happiness I feel whenever someone talks about D.Gray-Man. When I started reading it I desperatly wanted someone to talk about it with so I tried getting my younger brothers into it. Sadly they were at the age where whatever your big sister likes is uncool by default, so that didn't happen. Well a few years later one of them came to me and was like "Hey Jasmin theres this really cool Manga you should read its called D.Gray-Man." THE FREAKING AUDACITY! But I was so happy anyone actually read it that I didn't mind it that much. Even today none of my friends have actually read it, only me and one of my brothers.
Oh and on a side note, I know there is very little chance someone is actually going to read this but I highly recommend Pandora Hearts, thats another one of my favorites. It has a really slow start but the payoff to the mysteries is absolutly worth it. Just please don't watch the anime, pretty please? The anime is not all that good.
Same but the zecond part of ur comment is opposite for me.
My older brotherkept yapping about it so i automatically disliked it butas timepassed and those songs came i changed my mind and asked him to show me that show. He was very happy that i asked him that and we completed it in 10 days
great video, would love to see a top whatever side characters
Enrico Pucci ( JJBA ) is also a great antagonist in my opinion.
Pretty solid list ☝️
agreed...
Underrated character
Too much plot armor makes him uninteresting
Way better than kira or dio brando philosophically....
I think he is the 3rd best villain in all of JoJo. The 1st is Funny Valentine, he is objectively the best villain and on the same league of Johan and Griffith in terms of writting and charisma. 2nd is Kira because he is an enjoyable, interesting and unique character who carried the 2nd half of the show. Pucci is easily the strongest JoJo villain thanks to his later stand Made in Heaven and his backstory is the best in all of JoJo which contains some philosophical stuff but his problem is that he has a large plot armor and he has not a charisma which Valentine has. But I think he is still one of the best villains.

Dude im so happy you mentioned d gray man cuz fucking damn this manga amazing like wow
So happy to see bondrewd on the list. It seems like people always forget him. For other great villains, I recommend younger toguro and Shinobu Sensui from yu yu hakusho.
Also, Makishima from psycho pass.
goku solos both of the guys you mentioned no cap
@@BUZZ__A You're the only one who cares no cap
Johann and Griffith are a close tie for me. Both could exist perfectly in the other’s world as smart psychopaths/sociopaths, and both have very similar philosophies and character developments that they rival each other in “let’s see how much we can make our audience sympathize with the villain.”
So u finally put your grasses on 😌
I disagree griffith and johan have nothing in common, griffith is just a power hungry brat, johan doesn't give a f about power...he's way deeper than griffith wanting a kingdom.
@@afrosamourai400 johan is just a guy who wants to kill. Griffith's character is way deeper than that (not true, this comment is just to point out the absurdity in your comment)
@@apostle9209 johan doesn't want to kill he want to die..griffith is a kid who want a kingdom, even a psycho like makishima is way deeper than griffith stupid dream.
good video, watched entire thing
A pretty solid list ❤
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU for putting Bondrew on this list. a lot of people hate him because of what he did to the kids in the abyss, as do I, but I find his character similar to Kira's, as he doesn't see anything wrong with what he's doing. I. Love. Characters like that. Again, thank you for giving Bondrew some love(and hate) on this list.
My favorite antagonist of all time is the leader and his various aliases/personalities from Usogui. I just love the way Sako Toshio shrouded the character in mystery, and as the story progressed more and more of his characterstics and relationships with others was revealed. I especially love the fact that there really was no ill will between Baku and The Leader, however they both realized they had to make sacrifices in order to gain/maintain the position they desired, Usogui is an excellent manga thats criminally underrated and i highly recommend it to anybody who reads this comment.
Based manga reader.
Its rare to see Usogui fans and Leader is also my favourite antagonist of all time . The last three arcs are beyond peak fiction.
valid asf
w
Two types of people in the world, those who consider souichi the goat and those who haven’t read Usogui
Dude, I just finished Monster and was looking up your Monster analysis vids, and your Top antagonists list. All lie in the currents of causality I guess😆😆
man really said "getting in griffith"
And that's within context
Would love to see an in depth griffith analysis from you
Nice, Griffith, Kira/L, and Johan Libert are my top 3
Aizen, Johan and Griffith are my 3 faves
Same here
Yess bro, thank you for putting pain in his well deserved spot 👑 best shounen antagonist ever, especially that you didn't favor obito or madara in that one
16:22 big pause 😭😭
Griffith is the goat for real. His transition from good to evil and tbe eclipse arc just proves it.
I think Shougo Makishima from the first season of psycho pass was very interesting to me. He is one of those villains your disgusted by because of his heinous crimes. He displays some fascinating ideological differences with the main characters while also having really solid arguments against the overbearing secret government systems at play in society.
The only one missing in this list
Good one, he was really thought provoking.
Johan and Griffith are some of the most effective in not just manga, but fiction in general
One of the most underrated antagonists in anime/manga IMO is Gin from Detective Conan.
Very good one I can't wait for the finale
I agree
This was a pretty good list, shoutout to mentioning askeladd who doesnt get enough recognition but my biggest issue is frieza not even being top 10 let alone not on the list. Eventhough he doesnt have as much development and a backstory, but at the same time he has the perfect opposing and similarities balance between goku as an antagonist eg their opposites would be how how he was born incredibly strong and sees his strength alone is what makes him superior and how he views others like pets while goku had worked with others to gain his power and sees all as equal, only judging character above strength meanwhile their similarities are how their ideals never change regardless of circumstances and events ought goku was weak compared to frieza he was still above those around him but came to the opposite conclusion. Other things such as how goku at that point had an internal conflict about being born a saiyan warriors who is ment to be ruthless and evil but was raised an earthling who is more complex and compassionate and frieza forces goku to accept his nature and nurture which allows him to become a super saiyan using the best parts of his nature and nurture to overcome the force that is frieza. Even in his first mentioning and appearance frieza is almost this force of nature/wall that cant be overcome. Frieza does everything a villian should do and more, Id go so far as to say he is a near perfect villian and offers uniqueness as unlike most villians he doesnt need any trauma or life altering event that changes his views like so many characters on this list. Id say in general when comparing him to other villians he is top 10, maybe top 7 as more arguments can be mentioned but for his story and protagonist frieza is in the debate for the greatest of all time
I can’t make one of 20 from the top of my head, but I know for sure my list would include (in no particular order) Johan, Aizen, Ulquiorra, Griffith, Pain, L, Doflamingo, Shishio, Kojiro, Enishi, Kira (the one from Jojo’s), Toguro, Meruem, Askeladd, and a couple more lol
I know this is a VERY unconvential list, and since I can't think of 20, I'll just go with however many I can. This will include LN and VN too, but only 1 per series, so have a go at my list
14 Griffith - Berserk
13 Squealer - Shinsekai Yori
12 Gilgamesh - Fate
11 Izaya Orihara - Durarara
10 Watase Sanetoshi - Mawaru Penguindrum
9 Askeladd - Vinland Saga
8 Meruem - Hunter x Hunter
7 Shougo Makishima - Psycho Pass
6 Johan Liebert - Monster
5 Morgana - The House in Fata Morgana (honestly thinking of putting her higher because my god did her story break me)
4 Beatrice "the Golden Witch" - Umineko
3 Utsuro - Gintama
2 Nadeko Sengoku - Monogatari Series
1 [REDACTED] from Pandora Hearts
If it's Monogatari I'd pick Oshino Ougi. Nadeko is a good choice though.
takasugi over utsuro
John Doe. And Squealer? What a chad list bro.
@@wi0.24se I don't know, Monogatari is always a really hard choice to pick characters for anything because all of them are so f*cking good. Ougi is definitely great too, but I just like Nadeko the most for the fact that she did not only manage to fool the other characters but also the audience and even herself in the snake arc. And for me personally, epecially after having read her story in the Nademonogatari LN after watching the anime, there is this strange kind of relatibility to her that just makes her one of my absolute favorite characters ever, so I can't just not put her on here ^^
@@freedomfighter9788 as a character, maybe, especially after the ending, but overall as a villain I just like Utsuro more personally.
Well since everyone else is givin' their lists, guess I might as well do the same.
-Takuto Maruki (from a game, but I'm sure there's a manga adaptation out there somewhere)
-Mujin/Mubong Park (God of Highschool)
-Frieza (canon and abridged version)
-Cell (Both again, but abridged just a bit more)
-Makima (Bow! Wow!)
-Altair (Re:Creators)
-Bondrewd (Made in)
-Rachel (Tower of God)
-Tomura Shigaraki (MHA. Yes, I'm serious)
-Sinbad (Magi)
-Majin Buu (all 3, but moreso Kid Buu cuz to me he just kinda feels like a weirdly perfect representation of everything Dragon Ball is)
-Lusamine (Pokemon. Game version, but she's in the anime, ha)
-Izaya Orihara (Durarararararararararararararararara)
-Monokuma (Danganronpa. it has an anime)
-Junko Enoshima (Also Danganronpa)
-Yuuki Terumi (BlazBlue also has an anime)
Honorable Mentions- Roberta the Terminator, Shogo Makishima, Abridged Kayaba Akihiko, Goku Black
goku solos takuto maruki no cap L list
@@BUZZ__A Get better bait dawg.
@@BUZZ__A hispanic mother negs goku gg ez fodder
I’m happy Ulquiorra got a high spot in this video. Although I liked his character and story more than pain I think this list is amazing with no bias to one manga/anime over another!
If anyone is a manga antagonist it's masked man
What I like about Masked Man is that he pays the respect that Bleach deserves. Also a fan of Makoto from kenshin though.
I already know the list is valid.
Just wanna shout out Sensui from YYH... originally I wasn't the biggest fan of the arc and his character thinking it was a bit over the top but as I got older I grew more appreciative of how broken he was and how his reality was completely shattered after seeing the true horror of the human race.
Sensui is my favorite villain, i'm putting him on my top 1 alongside Johan Liebert and Griffith, his ideology and his character is so captivating
Him and johan are the best villains ever with makishima shogo...
Hell yeah, I always love these types of videos and this is my Top 20 rn
1. Takasugi (Gintama)
2. Funny Valentine (JoJo SBR)
3. Johan Liebert (Monster)
4. Hisoka (HxH)
5. Griffith (Berserk)
6. Sensui (YYH)
7. Aizen (Bleach)
8. Makishima (Psycho Pass)
9. Pain (Naruto)
10. Katakuri (One Piece)
11. Friend (20th Century Boys)
12. Raoh (Hokuto No Ken)
13. Meruem (HxH)
14. Millennium Earl (D Gray Man)
15. Shishio (Rurouin Kenshin)
16. Frieza (DBZ)
17. Toguro (YYH)
18. Kira (JoJo Diamond is Unbreakable)
19. King Piccolo (DB)
20. Oikawa (Haikyu)
Huge W for takasugi
Sensui is so damn cool. Underrated pick!
No offence but villains from gag anime like one piece or Gintama can never be great… both manga cannot do tone well and it affects how good the villains are.
It’s an issue that people think that picking a villain from their favourite manga series is how to pick good villains.
@patsch346 Both series have way more to offer than their comedy and both of them as antagonists spoke to me in a way it's hard to explain
@@SamTheGumMan117 how, both antagonists aren’t anything- they aren’t deep, they don’t have more then a single layer of characterisation. Both mangas, especially Gintama, are just gag anime.
Great list, it lacks few names like
Frieza
Riboku or Ryofui ( Kingdom )
Kazuho Yoshi (Texhnolyze)
At first I would have agreed with your critique of Aizen, but after I read Everything But The Rain that all sort of changed for me. He really DID plan everything. But it's more believable that his plan revolved around a chance encounter that he wanted to see the results of, rather than him orchestrating the exact scenario that led to Ichigo's birth. This is a good list regardless, and as a Bleach fan I'm just happy that two Bleach characters made it on the list.
Washizu from Akagi is one of the best antagonists. It's a shame FKMT's works have never taken off in the West.
1.Frieza (Dragon Ball Z)
2.Meruem (Hunter x Hunter)
3.Yoshikage Kira (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure)
4.Griffith (Berserk)
5.Johan Liebert (Monster)
6.Donquixote Doflamingo (One Piece)
7.Sosuke Aizen (Bleach)
8.Shinobu Sensui (Yu Yu Hakusho)
9.Madara Uchiha (Naruto)
10.The Major (Hellsing)
Please play fear and hunger, it’s a great series. I think it would be a great experience for you once you get pass all the tough parts.
I'm guessing you haven't read Golden Kamuy if Tsurumi isn't there. You should definitely give it a shot, its an amazing manga.
Askleladd is an amazing character but I don't think he's really an antagonist, he's really the main protagonist of the Prologue arc.
My Top 10 anime/manga antagonists
1. King Bradley (Full Metal Alchemist)
2. The Laughing Man (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex)
3. Funny Valentine (JJBA: Steel Ball Run)
4. Kirei Kotomine (Fate)
5. Char Aznable (Mobile Suit Gundam)
6. Makima (Chainsaw Man)
7. Johan Liebert (Monster)
8. Bondrewd (Made in Abyss)
9. Lordgenome (Gurren Lagann)
10. Millions Knives (Trigun)
Honorable Mentions:
Zabuza (Naruto)
Lil' Slugger (Paranoia Agent)
Diego from Another World (JJBA: Steel Ball Run)
Nice to see someone give Millions Knives a spot, Trigun is underrated.
I would say that Tsukiko Sagi is the true antagonist of PA, since she enables Shonen Bat to exist in the time frame of the series.
Knowing that you’re not much of a fan of Rosario + Vampire: Miyabi.
Miyabi shows up in the second half of the series as this mysterious character that’s often time helping the protagonist, or outright trying to hinder him. In his first appearance, he attacks one of the girls in the party, then at the end of her arc, proceeds to body everyone. Later on he shows up as a member of the antagonist group Fairy Tale, seemingly acting subservient to its leader before revealing himself to not only be the leader of the group itself, but also the dreaded alucard whose likeliness its protagonist Tsukune is compared to when he began his transformation into a vampire/ghoul. His motivations are connected to Moka as he needs the rest of his power in order to generically take revenge on humanity. What makes Miyabi such a deadly antagonist is that his presence mostly was followed by carnage.
Next do top 20 best deuteragonist
Say what you want about Big 3, the antagonists are mostly on point in those. They may not be the best written, but they are well written, iconic and provides a blueprint for future antagonists. Anyways, great list. I would put some LN picks but not many people care, so meh.
Monster will always be my top favorite anime/manga. Everything about it is amazing
This is a good list

I’m still waiting on your Billy Bat review
I have never seen better manga antagonists list. Your top 5 is same as mine. Also I am happy to see Pain in the list insted of Madara.
Nice
I would argue Obitos motivation was pretty weak for a main villain. He basically did all of that becuase Rin died. There are like 10+ characters who had people way more important to them, who died & they did not decide to just up and destroy the world. It’s just a little weak and baseless for a main villain motivation
I didnt expect bondrewed to be lol. He's still an amazing antagonist.
I only started a few episodes in Monster and I already can see why his one of the best antagonists out there
Hey masked u should give "Heroine wa zetsubou shimashita" a read, its a really messed up story, and if we analyze it with an actual critical eye, i don't think its that good. Nonetheless it keeps me glued to itself.
if you go on to continue gintama, i think you will also have utsuro somehere in here
goku one taps utsoro no cap
@@BUZZ__A who gives a shit Utsuro's still a better character. Also Takasugi > Utsuro any day
My favorite antagonists are:
1. Sato
2. Zeke Jaeger
3. Sousuke Aizen
4. Hisoka Morrow
5. Suguru Geto
6. Askelaad
7. Cell
8. Pain
9. Souta-Washu Furuta
10. Akito Soma
Wow really amazed to see geto in the list
W for Zeke over cringe Eren
@@shehanreshin eren never was an Antagonist
There will never be an antagonist that has made me as hyped to read the next chapter as much as Sato. Both him and Nagai share one of my manga fav character dynamics I've ever read
@@bruh......2005 underrated villain and manga overall, I never see ajin talked about
Do a video on Red Dead Redemption 2
If you guys wanna read a story with multiple excellent antagonists, I would highly recommend Baccano
Using pains theme is a nice touch
Peak content
Great list the only choice I disagree with is Makima
Crucify me if you want but just couldn’t get the hype behind her as a villain. She was an absolute force of nature with claws in everything and everyone, but to me was just a really tall obstacle.
Still great list
Hey Masked, can you talk about your opinion on Death from Puss in Boots as a villain? Love to hear your thoughts about him
Great villain. Great movie
@@TheMaskedMan goku solos puss in boots no cap
@@BUZZ__A powerscalers attempting to make conversation be like
@@mrbean9554 so true
@MrBean though in all seriousness death was really a breath of fresh air
Bondrewd is in my top 3. Terrifying character.
You should check out golden kamuy and blade of the immortal they had great antagonists
You’ve done this list like 3 times!!🤣
Bondrewd is a great antagonist because he believes what he's doing is good and being a loving parent.
I have been really interested in manhwa these days. There are some of the villains that I found really enjoy to read.
Lee shin from Judge and Executioner is one of my fav villain in manhwa.
No bullsh*t, straight up EVIL.
You should give a try,too.
glad to see doflamingo, finally someone who knows what is great written character actually means, not some overpowered sh*it character
