Want to end the debate of who the strongest <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-female-anime-characters/ranker-characters?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">anime character</a> to ever exist is? You only have to do one thing...vote on the poll below! For this list we want to hear your opinion on who the most powerful anime character of all time. These guys probably beat up the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/smartest-anime-characters/ranker-anime">smartest anime characters</a> all the time in high school--if they ever went to one.&nbsp;Both heroes and villains are included below, so you can vote for everyone from Madara Uchiha to Ichigo Kurosaki. The discussion of the strongest anime character is always shrouded in controversey, so consider the following: just because a character is physically more powerful doesn't mean they are stronger than another overall. Take Light Yagami vs Monkey D. Luffy, for example. Obviously Luffy could gum-gum pistol him into oblivion, but what if Light wrote his name down in the death note? That's an instant death with just the stroke of a pen. <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/when-you-see-it-pictures/lauren-slocum?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">When you</a> see names like Vegeta below, assume that they would be fighting at their very highest potential.&nbsp;

Yanderes seem sweet enough when you first meet them, but then they turn out to be super freaking crazy. Lurking right under the surface is several layers of insane, obsessive love for whoever their target happens to be. For some of these characters, their love is aimed towards a specific person. For other yanderes, their love is a lot more general, but no less dangerous. Even if their crazy antics are coming from a place of love, you can't help but feel anywhere from mildly unsettled to genuinely creeped out.From the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-action-anime/ranker-anime" target="_blank">best action anime</a>&nbsp;to the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-thriller-anime/ranker-anime" target="_blank">greatest psychological thriller anime</a>, the most intense and craziest yanderes have been compiled here.

The 15 Greatest Anime Hugs of All Time

Maybe it&#39;s because they&#39;re so reliable, but loyal anime characters&nbsp;don&#39;t always get the appreciation that they deserve. Let&#39;s spread some love to some of the most loyal anime characters out there.

Loyalty can drive some anime characters to make major personal sacrifices.&nbsp;Akemi Homura of&nbsp;<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-puella-magi-madoka-magica-quotes/ranker-anime?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Puella Magi Madoka Magica</a>&nbsp;has traveled through time over 100 times to save her best friend Madoka&#39;s life, at significant risk to herself.&nbsp;Tanjiro Kamado of Demon Slayer: <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/anime-like-demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba/ranker-anime?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Kimetsu no Yaiba</a>&nbsp;is so devoted to his sister that he dedicates his life to transforming her back from demon to human - even though her demon form isn&#39;t always controllable. These characters are willing to take major risks, but that&#39;s just how much they love their friends.&nbsp;Not every loyal character is putting themselves in immediate danger, however -&nbsp;Arisa Uotani and Saki Hanajima of Fruits Basket&nbsp;just really love their friend Tohru Honda.

The 15 Most Loyal Anime Characters Who Always Have Your Back

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.

In 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>, little sisters and big brothers are probably the most common sibling configuration - but that doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s the only one out there. Actually, there are plenty of anime characters who are older sisters who are worth paying attention to.

Some of the best big sisters in anime have&nbsp;the caring, maternal personalities that people associate with sisterly behavior. Akari Kawamoto of&nbsp;March Comes In Like A Lion&nbsp;loves her sisters fiercely, and has even taken on the responsibility of raising them after their mother passed away. Others are super protective without all the kindness - think of Mikasa Ackerman of Attack on Titan&nbsp;laying waste to anyone who messes with her adoptive brother Eren. Others, like Olivier Armstrong of&nbsp;Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood&nbsp;are the ones giving their younger siblings the smackdown.

Whatever their relationships with their respective siblings, these older sisters all add something meaningful to their siblings&#39; lives. Show them some love and vote up your favorites!

Anime Characters by Series

Here is every Attack on Titan character from the popular 2013 anime series, listed from best to worst by fans of the anime series. AOT is without a doubt one of the most popular anime series that is currently still running. Aside from stunning visuals and its horrifying tone, the characters in Attack on Titan are really what makes the show special. Eren, Mikasa, and Armin are the real stars of the show, but Attack on Titan has a great lineup of secondary characters that really add depth to the series, such as Captain Levi, Erwin, Petra, Connie, and many others.

Many of the AOT characters on this list end up dead, but that&#39;s to be expected for a show that&#39;s about giant monsters who are relentlessly attacking the humans within their walls.
