Well, in theory, the most evil anime character would have to be The Idea of Evil from Berserk. Considering that it is, well, the incarnation of evil...

...and for the record, Griffith isn't evil.


Mmm, interesting point. I would probably consider Griffith to be evil on most counts. I mean, yes, maybe it isn't really due to him. I see the whole eclipse sequence to be one of the most brutal and surprising parts of any anime and spoiler[ after spending so much time building up the camaraderie and friendship surrounding it, the actual events of the eclipse are truly horrific and due to Griffith (although that is just his desperation, or on a grander scale, the inevitability of causation.)] But as a personal reaction to what happens, Griffith is a truly evil character. Especially if you only watch the anime rather than read what happens later in the manga.


Apologies to the mods in advance, as this post is rather off-topic.
spoiler[
The reason I say Griffith isn't evil...well, for starters, everything after the Eclipse doesn't count. That's Femto, a demon, not Griffith.

Griffith as a man was an extremely ambitious person who was concerned both with advancing himself in life and protecting his soldiers, as evidenced by his interactions with that pedophilic lord. When Guts left him, Griffith lost it, and brought his dream down within hours. He was imprisoned and tortured for ay year. Griffith, up until that point, was not evil.

Then came his rescue, and the Eclipse. Even when the Eclipse began, Griffith tried to save the Hawks, Guts in particular, but he couldn't yell out to them. Once the Eclipse was under way, it was too late. Conrad (I believe, though it may have been Ubrik) tricked Griffith. The illusions he showed him bent Griffith's will. They used the dead boy to convince Griffith that if he doesn't accept the God Hand's offer and fulfill his dream, he's making the sacrificies of the thousands who have died for him all for nothing. They told him that it was a choice between sacrificing a small group of men willing to die for him, or rendering the sacrifices of thousands worthless. Considering his mental state at the time, it's unsurprising that they were able to get him to agree.]


So that is why I say he isn't evil. He was a victim of the Eclipse just as much as the Hawks were.

On the topic of evil characters...Legato from Trigun was pretty bad.

I saw my "My Anime" list and saw Tsukihime on there and was like, "O yeah." I can't remember the name of the twin that Shiki fought in the show. Could anyone help me by telling me the name of that character? I would also like to nominate him for the tournament.

She's talking about what you said yourself was a little off topic

She probably doesn't want you to explain why the character is evil yet. You will get your chance once the tourney gets under way...if someone says they don't know why you thought he was evil or if they disagree with you just ignore them. Wink

Edit: whoops sorry about that I just assumed and shouldn't have. Embarassed

Okay, I did my best. Hope these help:

Couldn’t find a photo for Jagura of Wolf’s Rain

Morganna of Hack is actually invisible, you only hear her voice in the series. And since I’m not a gamer, I have no idea if she has a physical avatar.

Here is a link to Steyr Civilian via Wikipedia. Steyr is the blond. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Scrapped_Princess_s01e08.png

Here’s another for Fei Wong Reed and Xing Huo of Tsubasa. Xing is the girl.

Ni Jenyi and Gyokumen Koushu – Sorry

Brent Furlong http://www.dvdfuture.com/review.php?id=439 not the best picture but it was what I could find. (the man with the red hair)

Satani Aoi – Sorry

Donald Curtiss – No joy here either

En of Sailor Moon has the Pink hair http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:AilAnn.gif

Zirconia of Sailor Moon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Moon_Circus#Zirconia

Horu of Melody of Oblivion – Sorry

Ernest Von Baghem http://www.kenoki.com/nko/bahbem.html

Maya Kamiya http://www.kenoki.com/nko/maya.html

I'll definitely be lurking around this thread for a while. I love what most would consider 'evil' characters.

Why don't I nominate my favourite character (aside from Akito Sohma, Fruits Basket) of all time?

Hajime Muroto of Gantz.

Somehow, though, I don't think of a lot of these characters as 'evil', especially the ones I tend to favor (with a vulnerability).

I'd still end up voting properly, though. Put one in for Chiyo of Azumanga Daioh. Razz

No offense, but I sincerly hope that you are joking!

Chiyo-chan, evil?! Where in the name of the anime gods did you get that idea? The cutest underage high school grad with helicopter hair, evil? NononononoNO!
