To quote Ferb from Phineas and Ferb: "A hero is a hero, but everyone loves a good villain."
MagicRainbow Kitties OMG YES
MagicRainbow Kitties
i honestly have to count the days of symmer vacation just to make sure its 104
But if any of one comes in real life & do the same things which he/she did in anime, then I won't think you can say the same things that time. :3
Sourav Dutta depends
But still, screw Medusa- she's still a major bitch
A good villain makes you question their sanity and moral compass.
A GREAT villain makes you question yours.
Especially the villains who have tragic pasts who do this out of righteous vengeance
That's why I love Handsome Jack from the Borderlands franchise.
That’s what makes me side with Maruki, in Persona 5 Royal.
@@Kaisona2017 based
Makashima from psycho pass
Where is Enoshima on this list?
1. SHE KILLS HER OWN SISTER FOR DESPAIR.
2. SHE THROWS THE WORLD INTO A WAR TO FEEL DESPAIR .
3. SHE IS WILLING TO HAVE HER CLOSEST COMRADES PLAY THE SADISTIC KILLING GAME.
4. SHE KILLS THE ONE PERSON SHE REALLY LOVES FOR, again, DESPAIR.
5. SHE LIKES WATCHING PEOPLE GET KILLED BY HER OWN CRAZY EXECUTIONS.
She should have been 5th at least.
Junko Enoshima is #1 on my list
Not to mention she manipulated a bunch of elementary school kids and used their terrible lives as a way to get them to kill off an entire city
I WAS THINKING THE EXACT. SAME. THING.
Juuzou Suzuya I KNOW RIGHT WHERE IS SHE SHE SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST BEEN NUMBER 2 OR 3
She’s a fuckin psycho and I love her
The best line from the Major:
"What I am telling you, my Nazi army of one thousand vampires, is that I am a purveyor of war. And with your help over the years, we are now at the precipice of our one true goal. You see, I want a simple war. No class wars, no drug wars, no race wars, no flame wars and CERTAINLY, NO COLD WARS! Blue balled for 40 years..."
(Yes, it's from the Abridged, but it's still great)
"No. I want at true war. A German war. The sequel you've all been waiting for! I. WANT. WORLD. WAR. THREE!"
Abridged has the best version of the speech. “You come home from work, turn on the tv, and on is a show about “what’s in the box? Who wants the box?” Storage Wars.”
@@icankickflipok "What's what's in the box worth?"*
The Abridged Version is the real version
Regardless they kept the spirit of the major as a tyrannical monster sociopath even in a funny comedy parody they still kept the monster but just made them funny
Integra: "Who ever is at the top of this list must be a purely evil being."
Alucard: "Like a Nazi?"
Integra: "That would be retarded."
I'm so late but that was so amazing
The Hellsing ultimate abridged reference is appreciated
She might not come as a stereotypical evil looking villain, but Enoshima Junko should be on the list or at least honourable mentions, that girl is crazy!!
Sabrina Michelle Billones Grødal AGREED, she killed and tortured so many people just to not be bored THATS SO FUCKED UP
I agree
@Keisha Alika Zahra yea
And whats worse is that she's the one who started the DESPAIR WAR AND RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REMENTS OF DESPAIR AND ALSO WHO KILLED HER SISTER AND THE MASTERMIND WHO ALWAYS FORCE HER CLOSET TO A KILLING GAME AND BRAINWASHING PEOPLE INTO DESPAIR AND WHEN SHE DIES SHE ALWAYS COME BACK AND DO ALL OF THIS NOT ONLY IS SHE BORED BUT DID THIS FOR DESPAIR. But then again i do like her as a villain..
She ended the world out of boredom, she's definitely pretty evil.
Surprised Dio Brando from JJBA and Naraku from Inuyasha weren't on the list. Those two are literally evil personified. They're bad, they know it, love it and that's all there is to it. In regards to Black Butler, Undertaker is probably the lead villain now, isn't he?
Naraku was honorable mention
The-Jaded so was dio
honestly what has dio done?sure he killed jonathan but fater that he’s just holed up in his mansion for the entirety of p3 (yes ive read the manga)
TRASH he poisoned his own dad, and Jonathan’s dad, burned a dog for revenge, force kissed Jonathan’s gf, murdered a dude just to test the mask out, killed 3 cops to test his powers, revived 2 soldiers and forced them to kill, possessed a lady and made her kill her own baby, killed hundreds of girls to make himself stronger, implanted his cells that manipulated people to killing for him, killed another woman he could heal his leg and the list goes on
@@oner1852 *"how many slices of bread have you eaten?"*
I love how Frieza is sadistic in a more intelligent way than Kid Buu, as unlike Kid Buu, when Frieza relishes the destruction he causes, he calls it a “great show”.
so i think im seeing a trend here..............evil in anime=glasses
I am evil, and my teddy bear is my second in command.......
@Angel Of Darkness - Alright, Rebbeca.
especially if the frames are circular
Log horizon... they made the same observation... even though they were still good, for the most part...
vash the stampede
The Major being number 1, man I did Nazi that coming.
Blake Warner I find this offensive, Ann Frankly you should to.

UUUUUFFFFFFFF😬
@@fumikotsukumi017 NANIIIII?!
*gasp
Oh Frieza, he is just space Napoleon Hitler, nuff said.
So, we can add Junko Enoshima to that list now, right? I mean, she did throw the entire world into despair just for her own amusement, personally murdered all of her loved ones, and drove her followers insane. She should be on this list, right?
chavamara who’s worse. The major or junko enoshima? The insane who tried to bring war. Or the teen who ended the work.
Okay but an army of vampire nazis under an order of 666
she killed almost everyone in the city in ultra despair girls
she killed almost everyone in the city and put everyone in despair
Not as bad as the Major, who enjoyed holocausts, seeing his own men dying, seeing everything be destroyed, he has no concern for his own enjoyment, he destroyed all of London because he loved war and destruction.
Why wasn't Dio Brando AT LEAST in the Top 3? He kicked a puppy so hard it twitched in his first appearance, stole Erina's first kiss, murdered his adoptive father, slaughtered an entire village, MADE A MOTHER EAT HER OWN DAMN CHILD, and that's just Part One.
Dio Brando just from Part One is more cruel then a majority of the characters on this list.
Yeah and frieza destroyed a planet and tricked the saiyans
Your argument is better than mine for why Dio should be on this list
Dio, Frieza, and Major. Imagine if those three were the conquerors of the universe O_O
Ban Uchiha yeah frieza did destroy the saiyans but were saiyans innocent people from my knowledge most of the saiyans are terrible people who wanted destruction during that time.
Now let’s talk about the mother and child scene about dio. He is slaughtering a whole village then he sees a mother and her child, the mother ask for dio to spare the child. And so he does. This looks like mercy at first that one time where the villain is merciful. NOPE!!! Surprise the mothers a zombie and eats her own child.
Now which is more evil now
Blowing up a planet of destructive aholes or
Fooling a mother to eat her own child.
He also killed Dan Jonathan's dog
Finally somebody see Light Yagami from Death Note is a heartless vilain
Light Yagami is a complex character who can be seen as both a villain and a necessary evil by both the viewer and the characters themselves. On one hand his motivation is to create a better world, punish those who do wrong and ensure justice for everyone... on the other hand, he does this by killing hundreds of thousands of people without due process or confirming their guilt, actively kills anyone gets in his way and admits in only the second episode he may kill his own family, and his descent into madness becomes increasingly evident especially in the latter half of the series. As Kira, Light demonstrates the corruptive nature of power and the dangers of fanaticism, when he returns to normal after giving up the Death Note he becomes a different person, a respectable young man and he opposes Kira which shows he truly does know what he is doing is morally wrong, but justifies it as necessary for the greater goal of a perfect world. Light's great problem is that he is completely committed to his goal at any cost, he even says at the beginning and end that he's willing to sacrifice is own mind and soul to achieve this perfect world, as he puts it "there was no other way, the world HAD to be fixed!" Certainly the world has alot of problems, no denying that, but killing hundreds of thousands of people and ruling the world through fear is not a solution and definitely not a perfect world either.
L for his part is not immune to criticism either but is decidedly on the side of the police and stopping Light's reign of terror. He sacrifices criminals lives for clues and while he is brilliant and willing to break the law for his investigation, he does have limits and his true motivation is learning the truth rather than pursuing justice. He probably could have stopped Kira had he simply made the judgement call to detain Light as the most likely suspect to see how doing so affected Kira's behavior, Light would have been in a difficult spot. But that isn't how L worked, he wanted to know how Kira made his kills, how he could seemingly drop people dead by wishing death on them with only their name and face and wanted the whole truth before sending Kira to be executed.
The most moral character in the show is Chief Yagami, Light's father whom is noble, willing to risk his life for the investigation and wants justice done properly. One of his best scenes is when he smashes into Sakura TV headquarters with the van and gets the Kira tapes from the media guy (I forget his name), I loved that scene and it was the most badass thing anyone besides Light and L did.
@@sirreepicheeprules7443 tl;dr
@@fritzy8318 then why bother replying...?
@@sirreepicheeprules7443 I don't think his "noble goal" really stops him from being undeniably evil since he is very much of a hypocrite and doesn't really show remorse for his actions (the scene where in the anime it flashes back to his childhood before he got the Death Note and started sobbing is not proof of remorse before you say, as it's also possible that Light realized that all of his hard work would be undone after his death and was upset about his efforts ultimately going to waste).
@@genityishere6968 true and I agree that he is ultimately evil. In the manga and also the live action movie, at the end it is shown that the world really does revert to crime and actually worse than before Kira. In the manga Near expresses some respect for Kira for dropping crime by 70% though doesn't approve of his methods and in the movie, light's father and sister talk about how the world had become even worse than before Kira, his dad asks if she wanted Kira back, and she immediately rejected it saying that Kira had killed her brother, revealing that she never learned that Light was Kira and her father lead her to believe her brother was a hero who died fighting Kira instead. The movies are quite good although they change quite a bit from the show, I highly recommend them.
Orochimaru, Aizen, Erina's dad from Food Wars, Yoshikage Kira, Dio, Griffith, Frieza, Laito's mom from Diabolik Lovers, Kars, All For One. I would love to see an updated evil villains list, just to see if some entries are the same, or if there are new entries.
I can see why Light Yagami was put into the honorable mentions. Cause sure, he did a lot of evil things, but it was all for the sake of making the world a better place. And c'mon, you got to admit you and a lot of other people were rooting for him to win.
True, true...
Light yagami was simply awesome
Yeah, and L was EXTREMELY awesome!
Yankeesfan4ever100 No L died
Yeah, his intentions were good which is in contrast to the other villains. Frieza does evil for evils sake, as does most of these villains, they are selfish and do things for their own sake.
Sure, Light is an egotistical asshole who'd use even his own family to get what he wants, but in the end, he was doing it for a better world, not himself.
Lol, the Major has a next level plan. Everything he did, he did for one thing only : TAKE DOWN ALUCARD.
And the madman did it.
SpyMonkey3D that and he just wanted a war
@@titang6173 well one of the prerequisites of having war is having a enemy, and the goal of war is to force upon the enemy the choice of submission or destruction.
He just wanted a war. The fact he was able to take down Alucard at all was a bonus.
Eh. Alucard came back better than ever.
SpyMonkey3D alucard did eventually return though
I love how she's Ciel in episode 4 of Black Butler
You expected a normal comment.
BUT IT WAS I, DIO!!!!!!!
Bob Johnson 😂
*KONO DIO DA!*
yare yare
Is it weird that I want marick and and bakura as an honorable mention?
Very original.... sigh
I fully agree with you putting the major at number one. I am a drama student and i LOVE how hellsing characters are written and performed especially in ultimate. Most characters come with some type of backstory, those that arnt directly said can be pieced together from the creators other works. Iv'e pulled really good monos from the series for myself and others. The series is glorified for the gore and not much else.. the great writing that went into the characters themselves is usually ignored.
+NewWindwolf14 Good points
Number 1 should have been Mr.Krabs
DONT MENTION THAT NAME! TOO TERRIFYING
It shouldve been chin chin
What, not Cory in the House?
**though in all honesty your comment made me laugh so hard my sister asked if I was okay, and I needed that laugh after the Nazi Vampire Guy, so thanks**
what about jessie, james and meowth
I would simply love to introduce Johan Liebert to Magase Ai. I think they'll have a lot to talk about as they try to trip the other into commiting suicide. A good candidate if you plan to update the list sometime
its simple. I see Soul Eater, I click.
too bad villains in anime are usually sexy
Frieza is a sexy mother fucker.
Monokuma admitted it: he's sexy.
Kayla Hill usually the female ones
Major best waifu.
Kayla Hill dude Frieda makes me horny
Here's an evil drinking game: Take a shot every time the word "evil" is said during this video.
AllHailMe 1243 I like to live
I want to have a future
No thanks, I like my life
Ultimate death lol
Before the countdown even begins, you'll be at 8 shots
The Major, how I love to hate that bastard. Oh yes, I'd say he deserves that #01 spot.
Deep down I was happy to see Doflamingo on the list.
On another note after seeing Diva on the honorable mentions list, I'm surprised that Amshel Goldsmith wasn't there as well.
Craz 9242 I honestly wouldn’t even say that diva was truly evil. She was raised like an animal with very little human contact. She did kill her captors but the majority of the problems that happened in Blood+ were done by her knights, all diva did was attack one of sayas brothers twice and try to kill saya once
@@jakealter5504 if diva choose she could of ended amstel goals. She didnt just attack riku she rape him. When she got what she wanted she killed him.
Is ironic that the reason Aizen lost to Ichigo was because he was too smart....If Aizen never experimented on Souls creating Hollows from his failed experiments Ichigo would’ve never been born.
Aizen created the Hollow that would be known as White that attacks Ichigo’s mother which leads her meeting her future husband which lead to White possessing her like that parasite Hollow from “Fade to Black movie” which his Father defeated & sealed him away inside her but eventually was inherited by Ichigo which became the foundation for his Zanpakto (Zangetsu) but retaining his original form as a Hollow which became his origin of his Hollow/Soul Reaper powers.
ah yes, the typical anime plot...
I think Medusa is slightly better because at least she didn't molest Krona XD
Exactly my thoughts cuz when it was said that Kiryuin molested her kids, I thought "Well that right there makes her more messed up than Medusa" smh
+Lucy Harper yep
And she didn't abandon Krona
^
I hope you realize she had planned on abandoning crona as soon as his usefulness was at an end.
kinda surprised that Junko Enoshima wasn't mentioned. I don't know if being totally despair driven counts as a villain.
She's cool but they didn't do as good a job with her in the anime as in the video game
She was still really evil in the anime
Otaku-kun this is true
+Otaku-kun compared to other villains that made the list, nah. She's not all that.
+Brenner Thompson I agree, though I guess Junko being evil is a pretty big spoiler...
I personally feel that Doflamingo should have been higher on the list because
(SORRY MAJOR SPOILERS)
HE KILLED HIS OWN FLIPPING BROTHER, ROCINANTE, BECAUSE OF A FRUIT. A GOSHDARN FRUIT. HE ALSO MURDERED HIS OWN FATHER BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WAS ANNOYING. Also, for one, he didn't mind DESTROYING the country he falsly lied to, manipulated, and scarred. He seperated families by turning the family members he didn't like into toys, made the toys watch over their families (Which forgot who the person was), and planned to wipe out the entire human race, because he considers it annoying. Plus, everything Robyn stated. I find thatt pretty twisted and sadistic. Do you?
AbsoFUCKINlutely my man, absoFUCKINlutely
Ikr. He's 10 times the bigger bastard than Croco will ever hope to be.
magicarp79 Doflamingo is what Crocodile couldn’t become
Think spandam could also contend for a title of evil
Me: i hope i see Aizen in here
*Sees Aizen*
Me: prayers have been answered
lol
Aizen shouldn't be top 10 . This is an evil list. I mean there are way more evil people in there. Doflamingo a man who owns a slve auction house which sells even chľďŕen u know how it works right. He makes people toys and made them their slves takes away memories of them. Boss of the underworld. Produces Smiles, if u watch One piece u will know how deadly it is. He owns a colloseum where people should fight to death. With his string abilities he makes people kill their loved ones against their will.
Bro Aizen just kills
I fucking love your #1 choice for this list. The Major always sent shivers down my spine.
Kurumi Tokisaki In a way the Major won and completed all his goals.
Eh i would've gone with either Light or Dio
Gentlemen... ve, are Nazis!
Und ve... vill have vor
Even more than Spooky Scary Skeletons!........ Sorry I made that joke.... ._.
what about Junko from Danganronpa. She literally destroyed civilian as we know it, and made fifteen students, even her own sister, kill each other out of boredom and to squash out hope in the world.
true
+Issun Boshi True
Also had an entire persons personality and characteristics removed and replaced with "talent" (super Danganronpa 2)
Finally, other people who's heard of Danganronpa
I guess she was not 'nazi enough'
I agree with most of these selections, but I must question placing Krul on the honorable mention list. There are decidedly more unpleasant characters in Seraph of the End, namely Ferid and Kureto, and I recall that Krul has a reason to despise humans, and yet still acknowledges herself and her fellow vampires as blood-sucking monsters. Not to mention, she specifically ordered her subordinates to spare the Hyakuya orphans, and has multiple moments of showing kindness to Mikaela. I’m not saying she isn’t ruthless or cruel, but I honestly believe there are quite a few more sadistic, monstrous beings than her.
Where’s Robbie rotten?

+AllyGal1231 Eren Jager at #1, no doubt about it.
+McK K I know right LOL
Western Animation: Frollo is one of the darkest villians in Popular Culture
Anime: Hold my Sushi.
*Alternatively:* Hold my potato chips.
"Well, Richard, how about holding my drink?"
Very doubtful considering that the west still has villains like The Joker, the Daleks, The Master, The Red Skull, Davros, Thanos, Loki, Surtur, Iron Monger, the Cybermen, The Scarecrow, Killer Croc, Parallax, General Zod, Sinestro, Lex Luthor, Atrocitus, Sephiroth, Genesis, Jenova, Ardyn Lucis Caelum, and a whole slew of other more evil villains that would take all day to mention.
Um that would be utrom shredder for most evil non anime villain.
The Major is like Stroheim if he was psychotic, loved war, and was okay with vampirism.
you forgot the ones that take away Wifi
xd
They also forgot the ones that cut off the ac
no idea what i should have for a name those monsters. BASTAAAAAAAARRRRDS
anyone else here think Vincent Nightray from Pandora Hearts should be on this list?
He got a honorable mention.
Vicious isn't evil he was betrayed by his best friend, his girlfriend and his bosses..... He just thrives and takes vengeance.
I thought the same thing. Like even if you wanna call him evil, he kind of had a valid reason for it.
Every well written evil character has reasons.
+Azereiah got DAT right
Dio looks evil-er to me than him :,v
Look if you think he is evil then Spike is too.... They both have the same motivation.
The Major is my all time favorite anime villain. He's evil for the sake of evil.
He is the living embodiment of war and destruction.
YES HELLSING ULTIMATE! c'mon where are my Hellsing fans at?!

Awww no junko enoshima
She literally created world war 3 just for her own weird fetish to despair and trapped her classmates to kill each other for more despair
Whoops and not to mention she killed her own sister with Spears!
+gold garchomp not to mention in the games she lead a group of children to continue her despair work when she dies
But if you read the prequel manga, her sister was just as evil and knew that she had to die to complete their despair plan
+gold garchomp I love her. I saw her on the facebook comment so i was hoping she was at least mention in the honorable. But sadly no. Also along few others.
what anime is junko from i want to watch it. i heard her name before
Junko Enoshima isn't here? Wow
I know right.
guess it's because of her short appearance in the show.
+Victor DeSena still bummed she not there
I was expecting her to be here, since she's done something many villains couldn't do.
Technically she's a video game character
"The sidewalk is wide enough, now drive." Seriously this earns Dio Brando more than an honourable mention.
I was praying for the major to be number 1 on this list, i mean oof his speaches are so god damn good!!!
I'll be honest, when The Major said "Gentleman, all I want is war" I thought he said: "Gentleman, all I want is VORE" XD
I didn't think anyone could beat out Frieza. A being who will cause your species to go extinct for standing up to him is about as evil as it gets. I can see how he isn't the best choice though, bc it isn't focused on much. We only saw one of his battles. We didn't see him show up anywhere else.
Frieza would always be the number one villain for me he committed genocide while laughing he's extremely sadistic.
+Targaryen Fangirl_20 true, but Frieza only did that because they dared to stand up to him. the Major would have done it just to hear them scream, which to me makes the Major far more evil and even frightening character. Frieza won't kill you just for the lulz. he'll do it if you get in his way, or if you defy him, sure. the major would kill you just to see to look in your eyes. and he'd prolly do it slowly just to hear you scream longer.
I just feel like he's a true villain he also has absolutely no remorse for killing people. He drinks wine at the same time looking sinister he's like space hitler and he calls himself the mighty Frieza plus he's fun to watch. I'm such of fangirl ☺️😊
shadowytwilight
Did you watch DBZ? Frieza conquered planets to sell them. He is literally responsible for the genocide of at least a few dozen races if not hundreds. He planned to kill all the Namekians even if they gave him the dragon balls. His purpose was power, not chaos, but destroying a few cities for funzies is absolutely nothing compared to exterminating all life forms on a planet for money and power. Think about it, would you prefer a mad man destroy London and a few other cities or all animals on our planet to sell it.
Jacob Byrd
Frieza employed others to conquer planets so he could sell them, yes. it's also made quite clear that Frieza himself barely ever gets directly involved or even issues orders. he expected the Saiyans to conquer planets to sell to him to stay in his good graces. he only kills the saiyans because they dared act against him. but again, Frieza has an end goal. he has a reason for his actions. the Major flat out states that he has literally no reason. there's no 'the ends justify the means' actions. the Major wants to create an eternal, everlasting war, for no other reason then he gets off on hearing the screams, and seeing the bloodshed. and he'd even enjoy it if you manage to kill him, becuase he'd love to even see his own blood spilled. That is far more terrifying a villian. there's no reasoning, there's no stopping, there's no end...and you can beat on him, shoot him, stab him, and all he'd do is laugh at you until he died..or you did.
I have to say, even though Dio was in the honorable mentions, I was surprised that he wasn't in the actual top 10s 😳
27:50 Goosebumps. Every time.
Will 2139 same here

No mention of the one and only DIO BRANDO?
Leora Ojadi Dio is the best villain ever
Leora Ojadi he was in the honorable mentions
Leora Ojadi DIIIOOO
Diego's better, fight me
Espada kurosaki *za warudo
I love Dio. Dio is one of the most memorable villains I've come across in recent times. However, I can see why he only made honorable mention. He seems less evil when compared to these other guys.
+Just Some Guy with a Mustache I was surprised that not a single villain from Akame Ga Kill showed up on this list. I'm aware that the anime is a little different from the Manga but the characters still exist. I read the entire manga up to this point in a single day. It straight up TRAUMATIZED me...hell I was surprised Esdeath didn't show up on this list she loves war just as much as the major does. Obviously she isn't number 1 because she has some redeeming qualities at the surface but she is just pure evil.
Not pure evil at all. She treats her comrades kindly which goes against the criteria for this list. She is a darwinist and believes in the rules of nature. The strong die and the weak survive. That mindset was implanted in her from a young age.
So no. She has no place here.
She treats war just like the major does...to her its more important to be in constant war than to have a stable society and torture is a hobby of hers in which she delights in causing as much pain as possible. I don't think 'she has no place here' as you say is entirely accurate.
She treats war the way she does because she enjoys fighting; she enjoys fighting Danger Beasts as well. She's power driven, but that power is always directed towards her enemies. She has never attacked any of her comrades, felt remorse when her subordinates in the Jaegers were killed, and was very accepting of her own death, since Akame beating her just meant that Akame was more powerful. She has no place here because one of the criteria for being on this list was treating comrades like shit as well. And Esdeath just didn't do that at all.
Again, her mindset is wrapped around the idea of natural selection; that humanity, as animals, should almost always be fighting for dominance, because that is how things go down in nature.
Moreover, none of these characters here really had much tragic backstory; she saw her entire tribe dead, and her dying father instilled in her mind the idea that she HAD to be strong, or else she would die. The way he spoke about it so nonchalantly to a young girl before death influenced her mindset. Hence, she grew up thinking that power was everything, and that nature required her to fight and prove herself.
The villains HERE are just *pure* evil. There is no sadness behind them, no history that caused them to make their choices. They solely *want power, and are willing to do anything and betray their closest allies to do so.*
Esdeath isn't like that. She values the life of the people close to her. If you were to call her "evil," it wouldn't really be evil so much as it would be "primal urges."
Honestly, use the term 'pure evil' with salt because the definition of evil is determined on a individual by individual basis. There is sadness and history behind true villains because if there isn't any then they are simply insane
I would say the Major is much more than just hungry for war. Part of his insane, twisted, yet morbidly accurate philosophy is why he's so amazing. Wanting nothing more than to have Alucard be burned to less than ashes, all for the sake of the Major being human, and Alucard a lesser being. He openly states how every fiber of his human being wishes for Alucard, a vampire which naturally preys on humans, to be destroyed.
I have to say Medusa Gorgon deserves special mention in the manga version of Soul Eater. Spoilers for the manga ahead.
After the latest tests with the improved Black Blood are a success she welcomes Chrona back home with a warm meal and is down right chatty and warm to the kid. Chrona is visibly confused by this and then Medusa hugs them and says she's proud of them Chrona snaps and brutally dismembers her screaming about having no clue how to handle this kind of treatment. Its a great scene that highlights all the horrible emotional damage that she's done to Chrona over the years.
Then the bitch does what I thought was impossible. She robs the readers of any potential satisfaction we'd feel with her death by using the last of her magic to pull enough of her body back together to drape her self accross Chrona's shoulder and and tell them that they are ready, they're finally strong enough to devour the Kishin Asura while sporting her trademark evil inhuman grin and laughing as Chrona chops her to tiny, tiny pieces, sporting an insane grin of their own to highlight how they've finally gone irreversibly mad. Seriously, that is some grade A evil there.
Dio needed a place on this list....not just a honerabke mention. Dio has killed (burned alive) his rivals dog after having abused it on multiple occasions, he stole hos rival's love's first kiss and damaged their relationship, killed his rival's father and comrades, burned down his home, stole his reputation from him, and proceeded to create an undead vampire army with which he did even more killing.
yeah I understand, the he returned and killed to many people
+micheal thompson He did it for self gain. Purely goal driven. Other do it for self indulgence. But the rare few do it simply because they like the very concept of violence and desire nothing less than to die having carved a bloody gash across the face of the Earth.
+MrMobiusfan So villians can't have personal goals for self gain ever? There are tons of villians that are amazing who only care about self gain. If they want to put Griffith on this list when all he cares about is self gain why could Dio not be on the list who did way worse than others on this list
sargefan19 I'm not say goal driven actions can't be evil, just that to be evil for reason than be evil is more so.
Most of the people on the list they made are evil for just being evil. Dio craves power and honestly has pretty much stopped at nothing to get it and has the ego to match it. He is a villian so bad that almost every arc of JoJo afterwards can be linked back to him in some way. He is honestly one of the non super bullshit one up villians that actually work since he was written back in back in 86. Self gain in the length you will go to achieve it with a couple people on this list being considered the most evil throwing away their basic humanity is the story of dio and i guarantee had inspired alot of writers
The Millennium Earl must be acknowledged!
The most we get of him being acknowledged was on the honorable mentions of the top ten monsters list.
Was kind of waiting for Shao Tucker
the_1_otaco *Shou
Seriously, shou is nothing compared to these guys. All he did was fuse his daughter and dog, the same with his wife. That is all. Number 10 used strategic, cruel and vicious techniques to kill someone. At least shou left ninalexander alive. Shou Tucker’s overrated
@@macncheezballz399 shou tucker crimes arent just bad. He did these things to his love ones only because he didnt want to be poor.
@@Shadothecat i mean, being traumatized from being poor can be a motivation. also, the fusion of the daughter and dog didn't seem sad or unhappy, just a bit moody. he's obviously a horrible person, but he didn't preform he's actions out of pure evil, which this top 10 is about.
Me for Makoto Shishio.
Excelent choice, I know this is old but having Ragyo, The Major and frickin' Giovanni in a top evil villains deserves the praise, also the edition work is genius at the ending.
You should make a Top 10 Assholes of Anime list. Not villains, just assholes. You know those selfish bastards who do nothing but make life more difficult for those around them and still think they're in the right. Example: Genma Saotome.
Makoto from school days at #1
Matthew Bolin-Jones I don't know. Since Makoto does get comeuppance in the end, he should probably be at 3 or 4.
LADD RUSSO
Think they are doing something good but they aren't? How about Light Yagami from Death Note?
the celestial dragons from One Piece. nuff said
Only villain I feel was missed was Knives from Trigun or at the very least Legato Bluesummer who intentionally had Vash kill him just to break his spirit. Aside for that, the list is very solid.
+juvygenius you too eh?
My vote goes to Akihiro Kurata, from Digimon Data Squad. Xenophobe, Mad Scientist, Hypocrite, God Wannabe, Complete Monster.
I'll leave it at that.
Akihiro was a mad scientist honorable mention
+Christopher Middelveen You left out genocidal maniac.
Do what you love. Unless you're the Major... then don't. O-o
_Do it anyways except blue ball him_
The runner up song is Satanicus by Bertysolo
But if you just want a version with no vocals then you’re looking for In the Shadows Ethan Meixsell.
I'm surprised not to see Orochimaru and Izaya on here.
+Mistylyn Frugone Is Izaya really a villain though? I just thought he was a giant troll. Never finished watching the show though. -Robyn
+Anime America That's not an inaccurate way to describe him. He enjoys messing with people and stirring up trouble just because he likes doing it. I can understand why he isn't on his list though, his influence isn't widespread enough to put him next to the psychos on this list.
true
Izaya.....*backs away slowly* that guy scares me even when he was in the *spolier*
Hospital he was waiting for the one person to finish him off once the person comes into his hospital room it turns out to be one of the people he tricked into "dying" once he recognized her he starts to laugh and it was really creepy. Also never see this guy skipping cause it's just creepy after watching that specific scene.
anime america what about oberon from sao aka sword art online 1 that basterd was so evil
So evil snake man Orochimaru wasn't even considered for the list?
He so evil though
Yeah right.
+SKERTELLES spoiler alert he kinda became a "good guy" because of sauske later on in the series. His evil deeds kinda stopped after that
Not really, he completely manipulated Mitsuki.
-_ PokeHazza _- yes but is mitsuki evil like he was?
It's worth noting that rather than just wanting to watch the world suffer and burn, the true reason behind The Major's actions and planning was to make it possible for them to kill Alucard. All of that was just to take out one single guy. Though he had no qualms with causing millions to suffer and die to the end, and even took gleeful joy in it.
How did Akainu not make this list?
He slaughtered an entire ship of civilians because he was on edge that a single scholar MIGHT have escaped, killed his own comrade because the guy wanted to go back home to his family, tried to do the same with Koby just for wasting his time, and finally killed Ace because of his bloodline and tried to do the same with Luffy yet he sees *THEM* as the embodiment of evil and not him just for the mere crime of existing. All of this in the name of “justice”. He makes Seryu look like a freakin girl scout!
where's team rocket?
really nigga. really?
+Nima Begum yes! :D
+Turqouise Girl OK that's fine at least they are not the butt giggle gang so I'm fine .............. if you don't know who they are search it up....................................
Nima Begum they comes on 2nd place after team rocket
+kuro In the honorable mentions. Giovanni is the leader of Team Rocket.
Team Rocket should've been #1.
true...they ruin a fun world full of wonder by being selfish dicks.....team rocket is the only problem in the ppokemon world
Idiot
+Ray Gamer I can see you take criticism well.
that's wat I was wondering
caroline christine y'all know they be blasting off at the speed of light. You better surrender now or prepare to fight
You missed the biggest one...
...Dinkleberg...
Nahh. Pain from Naruto Shippuden
Over_cK Gaming well he’s not Pure evil
Then Demon Slayer comes to give us a Evil Micheal Jackson
my favorite villain is Naraku from Inuyasha, he was pretty evil, ruining the lives of nearly every one of the characters in Inuyasha, as well as being a twisted manipulator who would use anyone to further his designs
OMG I know he should've been on this list
+Brady Kovacevich he was in the honorable mentions
+Bernie Burton No, Johan was way more evil than him.
Sesshomaru you mean Jaken? or talking about another series?
Bernie Burton another series.
I am so glad Frieza was on this list (as high as he is) and Naraku was mentioned. They're my favorite anime villains and I'm glad they're acknowledged. And #1 makes a lot of sense good choice.
*Poor Lil' Teeny Crona...😢*
Yoshikage Kira should not be on this list. He is one of my favourite JoJo villans, but, he isn't really evil. He's just crazy.
He just wanted a quiet life.
Yo, number 4 messes me up mentally now. Oh god
bear in mind the anime adaptation they are referring to here is the prequel to the actual story, the whole manga messes you up mentally, that being said it is thoroughly enjoyable and my favorite manga of all time
Same man that brings back some ghosts of my never mind
Watch Blood-C now
Gatts (His best bro) is more fucked up.
Ikr?! Crazy messed up.
Where is Junko Enoshima from danganronpa
Danganronpa was originally a game, they made a anime of it .
I mean, putting Nina’s dad from Fullmetal alchemist on number one, would be too easy.
Sho tuker
That dude is fuccing pathetic, but there are WAY WORSE than him who exist!
As a german, I can tell you our accent is not THAT extreme- and it made me laugh tbh
Really enjoying these videos! the information, the sense of humor, the jokes, EVERYTHING! have you done a TOP 10 CHARACTER ARCHS, where characters end up at a completely 180 degree difference then when they started out... If you haven't, i humbly suggest it.
Thank you for these videos.
What about Dio from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure's?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
I freaking HATE Dio!!! And I'm only on Part 1!! I can't wait to hate him even more in later parts.
+Marie Fiske if you hate him now...oh boy you better prepare your ass.
YES! I love Dio so much, he's really one of my most favorite antagonists.
Yoshikage Kira > Dio
Aomine Daiki bite za dust
LORD FRIEZA
FRIEZA FRIEZA FRIEZAAAA
KIRA KIRA KIRAAAA
Viscous is the only non scientifically enhanced or magical human (that I've ever known) to bring a sword to a gun fight and WIN. great choice for #10
Cinder Falls ? RWBY Anyone?
+Jennylene Fabia RWBY is not an anime. Its an american online series that just looks like one.
+Jennylene Fabia also the villains in RWBY are severally underdeveloped. love the weapon designs, character designs, and fights... but RWBY as a story is pretty lame, they're just now getting to their first real battle (and I suspect it'll be the series climax).
+Jennylene Fabia Plus Cinder is an awful villain.
RWBY is not an anime so many comments like that it is not made in Japan which makes it not anime.
+Killer13 Japan treats it as one and even made a manga for it
Monokuma didn't even make it to the honorable mentions ? There are some of these guys I don't know, but they must be some insanely sick bastards... *adding shows to must watch list*
#1's personality is EXACTLY LIKE JUNKO ENOSHIMA!!!!!!!!!
Also, how is she not in this list.
Good point, and she has a better way of speaking, I actually love the way she talks I mean the great line 'KAMAKURA KAMAKURA YAS QUEEEEENN'
JOHAN JUST WATCHED EVERYTHING
I ONLY WATCHED THIS VIDEO FOR THE MAJOR AND I WAS VERY HAPPY TO SEE HE WAS #1!!!!
+Emily Smith Same. I enjoyed watching Hellsing Ultimate, even though i didn't watch the anime. I thought that the Major was the most diabolical character I have ever watched on television. GO MAJOR. ^^ Alvidasei!
+Emily Smith Bah... The Major wishes that he was half the villain that ANY of the Zabis (Except Garma or Mineva) were. They not only backstabbed the Deikun family but each other as well. Ghiren kills his brother Sasro via assassination and his father Dewgen, just to keep a losing war that had wiped out 1/2 of humanity. Kycelia then killes Ghiren. Not to mention the Zabis forcing their nation to drop a colony on Earth, accidentally wiping out Sydney, Australia instead of the Federation Base at Jaburo, South America. They didn't even commit enough forces to ensuring their target hit the right place because they felt that dropping a colony anywhere on Earth, screwing it up, would be sufficient to try to make the Federation back the fuck down.
I personally thought Sugou from SAO would be on the list, the way he experimented on people, locked Asuna in a giant bird cage, tormented her, sadistically hurt Kirito while he was helpless, sexually assaulted Asuna in front of Kirito and attempted to murder Kirito in real life. For absolutely no reason besides wanting to rule the world. I mean, even Kayaba turned out to be semi-good after realizing all the pain he caused was for nothing. He help Kirito overwrite Sugou's authority by giving Kirito his player ID. I mean, how much more evil can you get after Sugou??
Suguou? No, I would choose Death Gun if we needed someone from SAO.
+Tom Baur Although Suguou is right there since he is so dislikable
That was nothing compared to the shit the people did on this list lol
+SimplyShady i agree with you but maybe also Shinkawa Kyoji?
+SimplyShady Any one on sao are pussys compare to Griffith or The mayor
I saw Medusa and clicked immediately.
tera miller same XD
same here
Char Aznable would have fit on this list... offering the gassing of a space colony, dropping said space colony on Australia, killing his own commanders, manipulating any woman who got near him and turning them into weapons, attempting to drop massive asteroids on the earth, claiming it was all for the sake of human evolution, and claiming to be a superior being and that faith and hope are the down fall of humanity. If you ever did another top ten evil villains list, I think he'd be a good fit
I agree with Robyn. MEDUSA IS A BISH!!!
YEAH BUT YOU GOTTA LOVE THE BITCH
It makes you wonder who in their right mind would actually have a kid with Medusa.
+Rami J AGREED!!! IM GLAD MEDUSA 'S DEAD, SHE NEGLECTED HER OWN CHILD UNTIL SHE WAS A RUTHLESS KILLER!!!! THANK IRENE WE HAD MAKA AND THE GANG TO BRING BACK CRONA'S SANITY
+Rami J AGREED!!! IM GLAD MEDUSA 'S DEAD, SHE NEGLECTED HER OWN CHILD UNTIL SHE WAS A RUTHLESS KILLER!!!! THANK IRENE WE HAD MAKA AND THE GANG TO BRING BACK CRONA'S SANITY!
+Rami J AGREED!!! IM GLAD MEDUSA 'S DEAD, SHE NEGLECTED HER OWN CHILD UNTIL SHE WAS A RUTHLESS KILLER!!!! THANK IRENE WE HAD MAKA AND THE GANG TO BRING BACK CRONA'S SANITY! I MEAN MY GOD GEEZE
...Junko?
I mean, she DID cause the apocalypse in the world, so I feel like she would deserve to on the list.
Well, understand her, she did it because she was bored and wanted to experience despair. And drag everyone with her. And put an extra layer of despair of those who were the best symbols of hope.
That's not fucked up if she was bored.
Nicolas Sznajder Feeling despair was her fetish. How is that not fucked up?
She killed her own sister
Nicolas Sznajder u have problems if u dont think that is messed up
Sorry, I forgot to write SARCASM in capital letters.
Personal honorable mention marwick istar from duel monsters. If u read the manga and watch the original he's just straight up evil with or without the evil spirit inside.
One of the reasons I like this channel for anime lists you actually include hellsing instead of not knowing about it like a shit ton others
all i have to say is: Junko fucking Enoshima.
On the episode about Crona's childhood I cried #likeifyoucryevrytime
no
I've watched the series 3 times and I can't hold back tears.
Wait til you read the manga :,(
I know it's going back a few decades, but Makoto Shishio-san from Rurouni Kenshin should've been at least on the honorable mentions list. He tried to topple the Meiji government, and if that meant killing anyone (including his own girlfriend!) who got in the way or whose death would further his goal, so be it. Evil dude.
Before I watch your list I'll offer my own #1, which is Griffith from Berserk, a man who'll smile in your face as he's plunging a dagger into your heart. He may even apologize before he walks away calmly. You cannot get much more evil than that.
Okay, I'll give you your rank of #4, basically because none of the anime versions go as far as the Berserk manga in portraying how incredibly evil Griffith is. He's basically gathering the remnants of mankind to fight for him and his demons to destroy one source of evil in order to be THE LONE source of evil on the planet. And, I fully expect him, once he's garnered all the power that he can get, to use people like cattle for the sustenance of himself and his demon army. If an anime producer would put more of the manga into another television series or movies, I think Griffith would eclipse all other evil anime villains.
