Anime has always been known to introduce characters
beforehand, giving them the necessary hype and the perfect ground to display
the overwhelming power they possess. But that is not always the case, as some characters
are overhyped and then ends up not being able to carry the weight of the power
he/she supposed to. In short I’m saying there are characters who were not as
strong as we expected them to be, but there are some who even exceeded our
expectations and these characters are;
1.
ENDEAVOR
Yes, endeavor was a character who displayed
and outstanding strength just like the others but the most appealing thing
about it was that no one even expected him to be that strong. He completely
blew my mind and this was during his fight in season 4 the last episode.
Back to the topic, endeavor was able to display strength that no one
believes he will be able to not even the citizens of japan believed in him.
When allmight lost his powers and his
position as the number one hero and symbol of peace, there needed to be a new
symbol of peace, and that was the duty of endeavor who was newly assigned as
the number one hero, but was still no symbol of peace. Endeavor had to prove
himself to be the symbol of peace with a bloody and hot-blooded battle. The
battle was so intense that his flame shone like the sun while he was fighting
and finally ended the battle with a shout ‘plus ultra’.
2.
EDWARD NEWGATE
Edward newgate popularly known as
‘whitebeard’ is a one piece legend and the former strongest man in the world.
Him being the strongest man in the world was one of the greatest hype in one-piece
history and he did better than we expected. In the marinefold arc, he showed
great feats such as;
-
He created two massive tidal waves with one blow
-
Smash through aokiji and his attacks
-
Destroys a giant’s weapon and head
-
Shattered two massive walls of ice
-
Dents a massive wall made specifically for
people like him
-
Breaks out of a block of ice
-
Blocks akainu’s larvae punch
-
Shatters the fortress at marinefold
-
Split the
ground while delivering a devastating blow to akainu
He died standing after 267 sword
wounds, 152 gun wounds, 46 cannon shots and he never got a wound on his back
because he never turned back to run away. TRULY A LEGEND, unlike buggy.
3.
ULQUIORRA CIFER
Ulquiorra is the espada no. 4, in the anime
series ‘bleach’ he was hyped in lots of ways in the espada arc and just as the
others, he didn’t fail us, in fact his strength was baffling, he made ichigo
look like a weakling. This is exactly what he said
“you
are a fool, ichigo kurasaki. To challenge an opponent whose strength is worlds
beyond yours, yet you dream of victory. It is beyond my comprehension. If it is
due to what you humans call a heart…. then it is because ‘heart’ that you will
lose your life”.
From this statement you will understand the
level of his strength and his vast number of abilities. Abilities which
includes; superhuman physical characteristics, expert swordsman, expert
hand-to-hand combatant, pseudo flight, true flight, spiritual awareness (can
see spiritual beings), extrasensory perception, longevity, energy projection,
statistics amplification, dimensional travel, portal creation, regeneration,
energy weapon creation, transformation, soul manipulation, special manipulation,
invisibility and many others.
And despite having all these abilities this
was not his true form. He had a greater form which could rank him far above any
other espada.
4.
NAGATO (PAIN)
Nagato is a character from the famous anime
series ‘Naruto’. He is a member and the leader of the akatsuki’s. He is one
known anime character thought to have suffered a great deal. Unlike many other
anime villains, Nagato seeks peace but he believes that the world must know
true pain in order for it to be peaceful, he uses a move called the six path of
pain, Nagato is great puppeteer although not as known as the other puppeteers
in Naruto. He was able to defeat most of kohona’s greatest ninjas with his
puppets while he stayed safe in his base. He fought against kakashi, killed a
legendary sanin (jiraya) and virtually almost defeated Naruto. Chibaku tensai
is an intimidating ability, but pain’s is completely gargantuan. Using the
ability, he can create a large asteroid in the sky, trap enemies, threaten
villages and deconstruct the earth around him. Just based on looks alone it is
terribly looming.
5.
JIREN
If I’m permitted to say this…, I would say
Jiren is the one whose power baffled all those who encountered it. From the
very beginning of the tournament of power we knew who Goku’s real opponent was
going to be, and he didn’t let us down. He completely defeated Hit and
withstood hits from opponents like it was nothing. That proud attitude of not
wanting to bother with weak opponents puts him over the top. His fight with Goku
was so good that it took more than two tries to take him down and each of those
tries contain a power up (ultra-instinct) that even gods found it difficult to
master. It took the combined effort of Goku, friezer, and android 17 to take
him down. And for the record…. they didn’t defeat him, they only pinned him
down and went down with him, that alone shows how strong an opponent he is.
