For me it's a choice between Hisoka of Hunter X Hunter and Kenpachi from Bleach. Both would kill their allies in a blink of an eye but they also help their rivals become stronger.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Let's just get Aizen and Light Yagami out of the way.

 

[Fury451]

The Bebop crew. I didn't list them as heroes on the other list, because...well they're mostly not. Spike and Faye in particular.

The crew of the Outlaw Star, at least at first.

L

Mugen

Let's just get Aizen and Light Yagami out of the way.

Light becomes a straight up villain fairly early on though IMO.

 

[Currygan]

Lupin the 3rd, duh

 

[pgtl_10]

Let's just get Aizen and Light Yagami out of the way.

Aizen an antihero?

 

[Team Alucard]

 

[f0lken]

Alucard.

Overpowered mofo

 

[WrenchNinja]

I just recently finished Code Geass and Lelouch is remarkably charming.

 

[Dahbomb]

The Skull Knight.

 

[AniHawk]

does homura akemi count?

Aizen an antihero?

Both made the 'best hero' and 'best villain' in anime threads in the last week. Just nipping it this time.

 

[Ezalc]

The Count of Monte Cristo counts right? Him, that fabulous malevolent bastard.

 

[Fury451]

Forgot Hei from Darker Than Black

Both made the 'best hero' and 'best villain' in anime threads in the last week. Just nipping it this time.

Haha, fair enough. A matter of perspective on those ones.

 

[Testicular Sound Express]

I always wanted a Sesshomaru spinoff from Inu Yasha.

 

[zswordsman]

Dammit op, Hisoka was the first one that I instantly thought of.

 

[Disgraced]

It's Guts or Skull Knight.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

what's the next 'Best X in anime' thread going to be we've had like 3 in the past 2 days

 

[Welfare]

Lelouch from Code Geass.

 

[pgtl_10]

I always wanted a Sesshomaru spinoff from Inu Yasha.

Totally forgot about him. He is a good antihero.

 

[Red Comet]

Check em

 

[zeemumu]

Vegeta

 

[SalvaPot]

Since Hisoka its rightfully in the OP, I'll say Luffy, since he is a pirate and evil according to society.

What?

WHAT?

And Kirby of course.

 

[Currygan]

what's the next 'Best X in anime' thread going to be we've had like 3 in the past 2 days

it's probably gonna be "what if your favourite The Wire character was an anime character , who would he/she be" or something like that

 

[Admiral Woofington]

McNutty-san!

 

[jbug617]

Probably Zoro from One Piece

 

[Fuzzery]

Zuko

 

[Nairume]

<3

 

[clay_ghost]

Piccolo .

Father to your kid when you die. Defend your planet in your absence.

 

[Wheeljack539]

/thread.

 

[Lulubop]

Fuck Vegeta.

Hiei is a better Vegeta than Vegeta's jobbing ass.

 

[Camjo-Z]

Lupin the 3rd, duh

I almost said this but honestly, he's not really an anithero. Even when he's trying to steal stuff he always ends up taking out some evil syndicate or something.

Now, if we were talking about the best antihero in manga... it wouldn't even be a competition.

 

[jstripes]

This guy knows.

Spoiler

Based on a real person.

 

[Kusagari]

It really is Saito from Kenshin.

 

[Two Words]

Fuck Vegeta.

Hiei is a better Vegeta than Vegeta's jobbing ass.

It helps that Hiei actually wins his fights.

 

[Lulubop]

It helps that Hiei actually wins his fights.

Exactly my point

 

[DarkKyo]

I don't remember the specifics too much but wasn't Itachi from Naruto actually doing his horrible acts for the greater good?

 

[B.O.O.M]

This badass right here and it's not even close

 

[injurai]

Lelouch is the worst. I'm disappointed.

 

[Necromanti]

does homura akemi count?

At this point in time? Hmm... Certainly a tragic figure, at least, and an antihero for the most part.

 

[Semblance]

Let me give my girl Revy a vote, since no one else has yet.

 

[Sheroking]

Let's just get Aizen and Light Yagami out of the way.

Light Yagami is straight up the villain.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Let me give my girl Revy a vote, since no one else has yet.

Yeeep she takes second place for me. ..now I have the urge to go and watch Black Lagoon again

 

[manzoman96]

All day

 

[And_Gignac]

Slaine Troyard obvs.

 

[Corsick]

Is there a large difference between an Antihero and a Byronic hero? I feel like Guts from Berserk would be a great pick for either one, but my understanding of the definitions may be a bit worse than I think.

 

[orochi91]

+1 for Vegeta and Sesshomaru.

Both closet tsunderes.

Let me give my girl Revy a vote, since no one else has yet.

Ewwww.

One of the most unpleasant anime leads, personality wise.

She's right up there with Mokoto from School Days.

 

[Fj0823]

Seto Freaking Kaiba

 

[GTP_Daverytimes]

I just recently finished Code Geass and Lelouch is remarkably charming.

Seconded, he went through so much shit.

 

[ninjabat]

The Phantom Renegade in Medabots.
