With such a wide range of abilities in anime, they need to be broken down by type. Who is the best fire user? What about electricity, water, or even ice users? Let's rank the best of the best from these categories and many more!

Anime Characters

Without a doubt, fire is a force of nature, so it makes sense that the people who use it are often forces of nature by themselves. Unlike <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-anime-characters-with-ice-powers/christine-rivas" target="_blank">anime ice users</a>, anime characters who control fire&nbsp;usually have a more assertive personality, speak their mind more freely,&nbsp;and have a&nbsp;major dose of impulsiveness. They love a good challenge and aren't afraid of turning up the heat to reach their dreams.&nbsp;The characters who made this list can be considered some of the greatest characters to have fire powers in anime. If you found your favorite fire elemental on this list, make sure to vote them up! if you don't see them&nbsp;and feel like your favorite should be here, go ahead and add them at the bottom.

Seras Victoria

Who needs a Kamehameha when you've got six in the chamber? These are the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-top-10-favorite-anime-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best anime characters</a> who use guns, as voted on by anime fans like you. It doesn't matter if it's a pistol, sniper rifle or anything else- if a character uses a firearm as their primary weapon, then they're eligible to be on this list. Some like Spike Spiegal from Cowboy Bebop use nothing but an ordinary pistol to take care of business, while others like Alucard use a special gun when fighting, like his gun known as &quot;The Jackal.&quot; We're not asking you to vote for the strongest or most skilled gunslinger on this list, but simply the one you like the most. Who is your favorite gunslinger in <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-anime-world-to-live-in/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the anime world</a>? Vote for the ones you love the most on this list, and don't be afraid to add a few of your own so other people can vote for them too.

Who is your favorite anime girl who wields a sword? There are so many great female anime swordsman, so let's rank them from best to worst with the help of your votes.Bleach definitely has its fair share of female swordsman - Rukia Kuchiki is the first character we're introduced to, but let's not forget about Rangiku Matsumoto either. In Fairy Tail, Erza Scarlet is a fan favorite anime girl who fights with a sword. Other popular female sword users in anime include Asuna from Sword Art Online, Saber from the Fate series, and of course Akame from Akame ga Kill!Vote below on your top choices for <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-female-anime-characters/ranker-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best female anime</a> swordsman, and even add a new character to the list if they're not already here!

We all know that two things are better than one, and apparently these characters do too. Who would you say is the greatest anime dual wielder of all time? Some anime characters dual wield guns, like Death the Kid and Revy, while others dual wield swords, like Archer and Shunshi Kyoraku. Vote up your <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-top-10-favorite-anime-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">favorite anime characters</a> that dual wield weapons, and add any to the list that aren't already here. Any character is game, as long as they're an anime character that primarily uses two weapons at once.

Just because an ability is awesome doesn&#39;t mean that you always want to use it. In fact, sometimes the consequences of using an ability are so severe that you need to think long and hard before you ever use them at all.&nbsp;

These are anime attacks that hurt the user. These abilities often bring the user significant benefit by diffusing dangerous situations when nothing else will do. But they come at a great personal cost. One example is Mankai from&nbsp;Yuki Yuna is a Hero,&nbsp;which gives the user a major power-up in exchange for a permanent disability. Another is Trafalgar Law&#39;s Op-Op Fruit in&nbsp;One Piece,&nbsp;which can grant another person immortality, but only at the expense of his own life.&nbsp;

Which of these techniques would you still want to use despite the high personal cost?

There&#39;s no offense like a good defense - at least, that&#39;s probably what the defensive anime characters on this list would say. It&#39;s a valid point - no matter how strong they might be, those who can&#39;t defend themselves in battle often get crushed before they can unleash an attack.&nbsp;Defensive anime powers may not always be the flashiest or most exciting ones, but they can sometimes be the most useful.&nbsp;

Who are the anime characters with the best defense? One well-known contender is Greed from&nbsp;Fullmetal Alchemist.&nbsp;Greed can transform his body into graphene, an impenetrable substance that can withstand any attack. Less well-known but equally impressive is the Sun Armor owned by Black Rabbit from&nbsp;Problem Children Are Coming From Another World, Aren&#39;t They?&nbsp;This armor not only is impossible to breach,&nbsp;but it also grants immortality and glows with the rays of the sun. Of course, we can&#39;t leave out Naofumi Iwatani,&nbsp;the protagonist of&nbsp;<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-anime-like-the-rising-of-the-shield-hero/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">The Rising of the Shield Hero</a>.

There are plenty of other awesome anime defenders where that came from, so let&#39;s give them some love by voting up the most impressive ones.

While there&#39;s nothing wrong with more traditional anime powers like hand to hand combat, fire powers, or mind-reading abilities, sometimes you want something a little bit more creative. With that in mind, let&#39;s take some time to appreciate&nbsp;fifteen unconventional anime abilities that we think are pretty cool.

These powers can be found in well-known shows like&nbsp;JoJo&#39;s Bizarre Adventure, Naruto,&nbsp;and&nbsp;Fairy Tail.&nbsp;Honestly, big shows like this could have easily provided enough examples to fill out the whole list, but we also wanted to give some love to less well-known&nbsp;series like&nbsp;The Law of Ueki, Hamatori,&nbsp;and&nbsp;Speed Grapher.&nbsp;Whether the anime is big or small, the originality is enormous.&nbsp;

Which of these weird anime powers are your favorites?

Even the coolest superpowers in the world have a downside if the user can&#39;t control them. In fact, many anime characters who can&#39;t control their power would rather be weaker than they actually are, because then at least they wouldn&#39;t be a danger to themselves and others. For many of these characters, gaining control over their abilities is the most important thing in their lives.&nbsp;

Who are some of the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-top-10-favorite-anime-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best anime characters</a> with uncontrollable powers? One particularly interesting one is Shizu from&nbsp;That Time I Got <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-that-time-i-got-reincarnated-as-a-slime-quotes/ranker-anime?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Reincarnated as a Slime</a>. Shizu&#39;s body hosts Ifrit, a fire demon who occasionally takes over her body and forces her to commit atrocities. As she grows older, she loses more and more control. There&#39;s also Izuku Midoriya from&nbsp;My Hero Academia,&nbsp;whose incredible energy storing power One For All destroys his body every time he tries to use it - at least, that is, until he masters his abilities.&nbsp;

Who is your favorite character with unbridled power? Vote them up to let the world know what you think.

The <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-anime-world-to-live-in/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">world of anime</a> needs more than energetic characters who rush unthinkingly into conflict - it also needs characters who are going to look at things analytically. The best anime strategists come up with the plans that keep everything moving and keep those plans from going awry - even if they&#39;re dealing with more impulsive counterparts.&nbsp;

So, who are anime&#39;s brightest tacticians? Most people will immediately think of Light Yagami and L, Shikamaru Nara, Lelouch Lamperouge, and Sousuke Aizen. These guys are incredible, but they aren&#39;t the only strategic geniuses&nbsp;out there. There&#39;s&nbsp;Toua Tokuchi&nbsp;from&nbsp;One Outs,&nbsp;whose brilliance keeps him making money in the world of simplified baseball. There&#39;s also&nbsp;Rock from Black Lagoon,&nbsp;whose unconventional strategies make him an invaluable part of his criminal team. There&#39;s plenty more where that came from, too.

Vote for the strategy expert you&#39;d most like to consult with.

While many anime characters use different elements for various reasons, very few elements are associated with a specific personality type than ice. Anime ice users in action and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-shounen-anime-ever-made/ranker-anime" target="_blank">shounen anime</a>&nbsp;are typically lone wolves who are calm and collected in the midst of a chaotic world. They usually provide both offensive and defensive support in battle, as ice is one of the most versatile elements to use.&nbsp;The characters on this list have mastered their control of ice&nbsp;or the freezing of water to the point where they could be considered the greatest anime characters with ice powers ever. If your favorite made the list, make sure to vote them up so they can get to the top! If you feel like your favorite ice elemental should be here, but isn't, go ahead and add them at the bottom.&nbsp;

The best anime fighters aren&#39;t always the obvious ones. Sure, they may be completely jacked, but&nbsp;they may also have small muscles that are deceptively strong. Either way, their fighting skills are not to be trifled with, as their opponents could attest.&nbsp;

While there are plenty of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-special-abilities-anime/reference" target="_blank">anime characters with special abilities</a>, the following brawlers don&#39;t rely on supernatural powers to defeat their enemies.&nbsp;Some of them do&nbsp;have&nbsp;incredible magical abilities that they use in battle, but they also have fast hands that can cause as much damage as any mystical power.&nbsp;Goku&nbsp;can use the Kamehameha, but he can also break an opponent&#39;s face with his fist. Makunouchi&nbsp;Ippo&nbsp;has no superpowers, but he&#39;s a trained boxer who uses a combination of technique and strength to win matches.

These anime fighters get into all types of brawls, and there&#39;s no denying how fun they are to watch.

This list might be shocking to you, but we're ranking the greatest anime characters with electric powers, with the help of your votes. Who is the best electric user in anime? This list includes villains that use electric power, like God Enel from One Piece, and hero anime characters that can use electric powers, like Kakashi or Pikachu. Denki Kaminari from My Hero Academia is probably the newest electric anime user on this list, although he is only a side character. Vote up your <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-top-10-favorite-anime-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">favorite anime characters</a> that use electrictiy as a weapon, and downvote any that you don't really care for.

If you had to choose, who would you say is the greatest anime character with water powers? From Juvia&nbsp;Lockser to Tier Halibel, let's examine some of the greatest anime water users of all time, with the help of your votes.It's hard to beat the popularity of Kisame&nbsp;Hoshigaki, the Akatsuki member and partner of Itachi Uchiha from Naruto Shippuden. Nicknamed the &quot;Monster of the Hidden Mist,&quot; this shark-like shinobi was a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist before joining the ranks of Pain, Hidan, and others. Another popular anime character with water abilities is Jinbei from One Piece, the whale shark fishman&nbsp;who was introduced during the Impel Down arc.Vote up your favorite anime water characters on this list, and please add any that you feel should be here. If the character has at least one prominent water ability, they are acceptable for this list. If you're looking for <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-anime-characters-with-ice-powers/christine-rivas" target="_blank">anime ice users</a>, they have their own list on Ranker.&nbsp;

Characters&nbsp;in anime have some pretty impressive&nbsp;abilities. While some overpower their enemies with their martial arts prowess&nbsp;or <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/anime-weapons-that-are-impossibly-big/nikoberi" target="_blank">insanely huge weapons</a>, others have elevated talents that reach beyond tangible weaponry.

From the ability to control the wind to destructive chi energy blasts, these skills exist beyond anything that is possible in the real world. Anime characters with supernatural eye powers fall under this umbrella.

There is no limit to what&nbsp;powerful anime eyes are capable of. Wielded by both the heroes and the villains&nbsp;in our favorite shows, these are not the type of eyes you want to get lost in&hellip; unless you have a death wish. Here are&nbsp;some of the most destructive&nbsp;super-powered anime character eyes and their powerful abilities. Don&#39;t blink, or you&#39;ll miss it.&nbsp;

Imagine an anime character with parasitic bugs that have been living in his body since birth, feeding off of his life essence and helping him attack his enemies. You&#39;ve just imagined Shino Aburame from&nbsp;Naruto,&nbsp;an awesome guy with incredibly creepy powers. He&#39;s not the only one - there are actually <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-top-10-favorite-anime-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">lots of anime characters</a> with supremely unsettling abilities in shows like&nbsp;One Piece, Parasyte, Fate,&nbsp;and more.&nbsp;

Vote up the anime moves that you found the most disturbing, and vote down the ones that you&#39;re more or less indifferent to.

Anime

Sometimes, the oddest part of about an anime character&#39;s powers isn&#39;t the power itself - it&#39;s how they got the power in the first place.

In My Hero Academia,&nbsp;Izuku Midoriya&#39;s quirk&nbsp;One For All is incredibly strong, and well worth&nbsp;the grossness that got him there...but dude had to slurp down a strand of All Might&#39;s hair. Yuji Itadori of Jujutsu Kaisen&nbsp;also got his powers by eating something that looks kind of repulsive - a shriveled finger brimming with cursed energy. It&#39;s not all about eating weird stuff, though -&nbsp;Souji Mitsuka got noticed for power distribution because of his obsession with a hairstyle.&nbsp;

Vote up the weird ways anime characters got their powers that are so bizarre they&#39;re hard to forget.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Not every anime warrior fights using only their own bodies. Whether it&#39;s to avoid damage to their own bodies or to utilize a set of skills that their human forms do not possess, there are some anime characters who fight with animals.&nbsp;

Anime characters with animal manipulation utilize their skills in a startling variety of ways. Some, like Shino Aburame&nbsp;of&nbsp;Naruto, have a symbiotic relationship with the animals that he battles with - in exchange for obedience, they get to feed off of his chakra. Others, like&nbsp;Kouji&nbsp;Kouda&nbsp;of&nbsp;My Hero Academia,&nbsp;can control animals to do their bidding and offer friendship in return.

These kinds of techniques can range from totally adorable to downright terrifying, depending on the animal in question and the exact nature of their abilities - Gomamon&#39;s March of Fishes technique is cute as heck, but Zouken Matou&#39;s worms will make your skin crawl, literally. Either way, they provide a unique spin on battle techniques.&nbsp;

If someone told you that you could have any anime ability, would you pick the coolest single power that you could think of? Or would you pick a power that is the anime equivalent of wishing for more wishes, the ability to take on other people&#39;s&nbsp;powers as your own? Though rare compared to fire wielders or ice warriors, anime characters with power absorption abilities are some of the toughest&nbsp;fighters out there.

Exactly how this ability works varies from person to person - it can be as absurdly complex as&nbsp;Chrollo Lucifer&#39;s multi-step Nen&nbsp;attack, or as simple as a plant&nbsp;Pok&eacute;mon&#39;s&nbsp;Giga&nbsp;Drain. It can have serious side effects like memory loss, as it does for Yu Otosaka, or it can have seemingly no drawbacks, as in the case of All For One. Sometimes, anime characters who can steal power don&#39;t have the inborn ability to do so, but go out of their way to take from others, as is the case with Danzo Shimura.&nbsp;

This is one of the most versatile abilities in all of anime - but because it leaves its victims without their power or even without their life, it&#39;s also one of the most cruel.

If you&#39;ve ever been caught in a downpour, stranded by a snowstorm, or flattened by a heatwave with no air conditioner, you might have&nbsp;wished that you could control the weather and end your suffering. While humans can make incremental changes in the weather patterns, we&nbsp;can&#39;t exactly call off a blizzard or make it rain directly onto our exes. But anime characters who can change the weather aren&#39;t subject to human limitations.

One of the newest editions to the canon of anime characters who manipulate weather is Hina Amano of Makoto Shinkai&#39;s movie, Weathering with You.&nbsp;She&#39;s a &quot;sunshine girl&quot; who can force torrential downpours to stop in their tracks. There&#39;s also Nami from&nbsp;One Piece,&nbsp;whose weapon, Clima-Tact, allows her to influence the weather in her favor, creating storms, fog, and other conditions as they suit her.

There are plenty more anime characters with weather powers where that came from. Which ones are&nbsp;your favorites?

With all of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/unconventional-anime-weapons/anna-lindwasser" target="_blank">strange and amazing anime weapons</a>&nbsp;to choose from, one might not expect an anime character to zero in on needles - but actually, there are plenty of anime characters who fight with needles out there.

Some anime needle users have a far more straight-forward approach to battle than others do. Gintama&#39;s&nbsp;Oboro pretty much just throws needles at people&#39;s weak points. Other characters get a whole lot more complicated, however. Illumi&nbsp;Zoldyck of&nbsp;Hunter X Hunter&nbsp;isn&#39;t just trying to open up holes in people - he actually inserts needles into people&#39;s brains in order to control their behavior. Still, other characters can eject needles from their bodies - Jiraiya&nbsp;from&nbsp;Naruto&nbsp;can turn his long white hair into a mass of sharp, projectile weapons.

Needle-based attacks are surprisingly versatile, so let&#39;s give them the attention they deserve.&nbsp;

Ichigo Kurosaki

Ichigo Kurosaki is a fictional character in the Bleach manga series and its adaptations created by Tite Kubo. The main protagonist of the series, Ichigo receives Soul Reaper powers as a result of a run-in with Rukia Kuchiki, the Soul Reaper assigned to patrol his city, the fictional Karakura Town. These powers come at the cost of Rukia's own, and as a result, Ichigo concedes to work as Rukia's stand-in, fighting to protect people from evil spirits called Hollows and sending good spirits, wholes, to Soul Society. In addition to the manga series, Ichigo appears in many other pieces of Bleach media, including the anime series, the four featured films, the two original video animations, rock musicals, several video games and light novels.
Kubo said that Ichigo's character was created to replace Rukia as the protagonist of the series because he felt she wasn't suited for the role.

He was consistently ranked as one of the most popular characters in Bleach.

Sephiroth

Sephiroth is a fictional character in the role-playing video game Final Fantasy VII developed by Square, where he is the main antagonist.

The character was portrayed in Japanese by voice actor Toshiyuki Morikawa and in English by both Lance Bass in Kingdom Hearts and George Newbern in all his subsequent appearances.
Sephiroth is revealed in Final Fantasy VII to be the result of an experiment by the megacorporation Shinra, in which they injected him with cells from the extraterrestrial lifeform Jenova when he was still a fetus. Upon discovering this, Sephiroth decides to follow what he believes to be his destiny and take control of the Planet, whilst Cloud and the game's other protagonists attempt to stop him. Sephiroth's role in the story, as well as his background, are expanded in the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. Additionally, he appears as a boss character in the Kingdom Hearts series, and other video games developed by Square.

Samurai Jack

Samurai Jack is an American animated television series created by Genndy Tartakovsky for Cartoon Network. The series follows Jack, a time-displaced samurai warrior prince, in his singular quest to travel back in time and defeat the tyrannical demonic wizard Aku. The series is known for its cinematic atmosphere, masking-based animation style, and battle scenes which pay homage to samurai films.
Tartakovsky drew from a number of influences when creating the series, including the 1970s series Kung Fu, classic anime, and the works of directors Akira Kurosawa and David Lean. The series premiered on August 10, 2001, with a TV movie called The Premiere Movie. As the series went on, ratings began to decline, and Cartoon Network decided not to renew it for another season. The series ended on September 25, 2004, totaling four seasons and 52 episodes.
Samurai Jack has since garnered high critical acclaim. It won 4 Primetime Emmy Awards, 6 Annie Awards, and 1 OIAF Award, as well as eight additional nominations. All four seasons have been released on DVD by Warner Home Video.
