I don't about others but I found this character to coolest anime character, Naruto & Vegeta is the coolest character I think. I am so obsessed with this anime that I get anime products a lot. till now I got Goku & Vegeta anime-printed t-shirts, Vegeta-printed cups, naruto-printed pop sockets, Kakashi printer phone case...

For my money, Dorohedoro is the coolest anime. I like all the characters, the story is great, the world-building is detailed and interesting, the humour is top notch. Some people are put off by the visual look but I love it. I recently bought the first 22 manga volumes and I'm loving the manga version, too.

I'd have to go with the original Ghost in the Shell movie and the major. The second GITS movie while a bit incoherent as to story was an absolute delight as to visual and music.

Ooooo, good choice, Alan45. GitS and The Major are indisputably cool.

The first 10-ish minutes of Akira would give just about anything a run for its money.


Though if you're talking just characters, I'll still have to go with Spike Spiegel. Somehow pulls off enough "rule of cool" things while feeling "actually cool" and without ever feeling like trying too hard like most attempts to make a cool character often end up feeling. A pretty grounded character arc probably helps a lot to make his more badass moments (of which there are many) feel earned.

I knew it wouldn't be long before somebody cited Cowboy Bebop. Extremely valid choice.

I started my anime binge ever since i subscribed to Netflix last year and i finally managed to watch a fair number of classic titles.

Best - JoJo's Amazing Adventure, Cowboy Bebop, Black Lagoon, Neon Genesis Evangelion (The original series. My Netflix version doesn't have the "Fly Me To The Moon" end credits) and Ghost In The Shell.

Medium - Sword Art Online, Jobless Reincarnate

Worst - The Future Diary (Boy, was this horrible)

You can consider me a newbie to the anime world. Really welcome any suggestion for titles i should check out in the future.

P.S- I am in Singapore. We don't have Crunchyroll here. I rely on Netflix and Disney+ for my anime.

For a recent choice, Call of the Night on HiDive is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.

I would say Go! Princess Pretty Cure. It’s got some solid action and great characters. Plus, there’s a heroic character who is dark-skinned, which is always a plus.

I'm so confused. Are we talking about the coolest anime or the coolest character? Either way, I personally always thought Eikiichi Onizuka was somehow universally appealing to me. The mix of comedy and seriousness, the attitude of being carefree yet strangely wise, and especially the goofiness and ability to live life to the fullest with few resources. The way Onizuka lives is how a lot of us wish we could live. Inspiring others to make positive changes, yet also never getting stressed about our own problems.

Depends on your opion!

But the best anime of all time is Hunter x Hunter in my opion. It has great character development and crazy arcs. Like, it goes from a survival arc, to a tornament arc, to a crime thriller, to a video game arc which somehow ends up in a Man vs Creature Death Battle which turns into a poilitcal debate with a crazy but loving wish granting genie! ringtones free download: https://ringtonesfree.info/

And the villains! Bro, everything is just tied up to everything! Its amazing, highely recommend it!

90s Sailor Moon (VIZ redub) is the coolest for me because it’s a historic footnote on dubbing history.

The Orbital Children is the coolest IMO. It's awesome to look at how AI is predicting the future. Eager to see if the predictions would become truth.
