Its usually being the average boring nondescript high school student isn't it? That's gotta be the most dangerous job.

I'll put in for Attack on Titan scouting groups as most dangerous. The least dangerous/easy for KLAC? Anyone's younger brother or sister less than 8 year's old (actual years, not how they look), all they have to say is "Onii-san...".

nah attack on titan has a LOT of plot armour, as said before a gantz hunter is the most dangerous job, as your reward implies being left defenseless. also, it's hard to top 0% survival rate, actually think the survival rate goes into negatives because spoilers.

Attack on Titan Scout Regiment is also one of the most dangerous jobs.

Space Dandy so not be on the list. I wonder if some one got their pockets lined to put it on the list.

Wait, Magical Girl is rated lower than Space Hunter? Really? Until spoiler[Madoka made her wish at the end of the series, becoming overcome with despair and becoming a witch yourself was the job's equivalent of office politics - something you don't want to happen but is unavoidable].

Also, no mention of the Survey Corps in Attack On Titan? Also, what "Little sister"? That seems like a very risky profession in anime.

Given the mortality rate, the most dangerous job in anime is "parent of a shounen protagonist". Most of them don't even make it to the first episode.


This made my day. Absolutely true.

How could I forget this one?

The cool, rebellious team member with the blue uniform and/or mecha.

I was going to mention Planetes' space garbage collector, but looks like someone beat me to it. Maybe being a Prinny's a bad job. You're trapped in the body of a penguin, you have to live in servitude, and you explode when thrown. Anyway I voted for G Gundam last week and Nintendo this week. Unique mechs and fun games.

I don't think there's a more dangerous job than boxer if Ashita no Joe is anything to go by.

Exorcist (D. Gray-man) is a pretty dangerous job.

I think Tegami Bachi should be considered, you have teenagers putting their lives on the line, venturing out into almost complete darkness, and fighting off giant armored bugs that will kill you and eat your soul just so you can have your mail delivered...

To be honest,I wouldn't want any of those jobs. I don't have a death wish,no matter the salary. As for "Gundam,"I don't really have a favorite one anyway.
