Which Shounen series handled villains the best?
>>147012712
Hunter x Hunter, this is an objective truth
>>147012712
this is the best shonen villain
>>147012712
Ruroni Kenshin
>>147012795
Nope.
HxH
>>147012712
I'm quite partial to Dragon Ball villains myself.
HxH
>>147012761
>>147012922
There are no villains in HxH.
>>147013050
Killua
>>147013050
I'd consider gen'ei Ryodan villians. But i know what u mean.
>>147012958
Black is literally perfect.
Is DBZ super the greatest anime of all time?
Jojo. Every villain after part 3 is fucking god tier except maybe diavolo
>>147013443
No, but it has the best villain of all time.
>>147012882
He as main villian would be too obvious, he under control of his "son" would be a nice twist, he under the control of generic villian with stupid plan was a waste.
>>147013810
That would have been lame.
>>147012712
Dragonball, pre-Z.
>>147013390
>perfect
>cannot regenerate
>cannot kill Trunks
>not even close to super perfect
>>147013877
still better then this main villian guy, after it's revealed that it's not their father it goes straight downhill
>>147014164
>Cell
>perfect
>When he lost to the biggest dissapointment in the series.
>>147014164
>A literal machine who can't think for himself and only does what he was designed to
>Lost to a child
>Said child had one arm
>Said one-armed child became a weak little bitch
>Goku IT's Cell and Cell gets literally BTFO
>Goku IT's Black and gets Blacked instead
>Thinks he's "perfect" next to Black
Give it up, fuccboi.
Toriko.
Between Midora and Acacia, I haven't had this much fun reading shonen villains in years.
Yugioh
>>147014926
>Midora

>>147015104
Midora DID cause two years of famine and suffering for all of humanity due to Meteor Spice.

Right author, wrong series.
>>147013050
>>147013329
what about the bomber from greed island
>>147015960
Genthru? I guess he's the most typical example of a villain in HxH, Either that or Tonpa.
>>147012712
Jojo
>>147014934
I cam e to say this, but not facetiously.
>>147012761
The only good Hunter x Hunter villains were Meruem, Pitou, and Pouf. Youpi, the Phantom Troupe, and most of of the Ants are ok, the rest of the villains are meh.
Answer: FMA 2003

>The only good Hunter x Hunter villains were Meruem, Pitou, and Pouf. Youpi, the Phantom Troupe, and most of of the Ants are ok
>the rest
You listed literally every villain in HxH.
While I stopped watching Naruto shortly after the great ninja war arc began, I can honestly say that I liked Orochimaru & Pain, as well as most of the Akatsuki. Yes, they were edgelords, but they were cool about it.
Sasuke can still suck a dick, though.
>>147017596
>Answer: FMA 2003
You must be fucking joke.
Dante was a generic mad villain with delusions of being superior.
Envy was a shitty villain.
Bradley's character was paper thin weak compared to the manga/Brotherhood's version.
The only villains that actually were decent were Lust, Sloth, and Scar (and that's if you count him as one).
I might give you Greed but the main villains of the series (Dante/Envy/Bradley) were fucking memes.
Hunter X Hunter villains are vastly superior to the villains from any of the three FMA adaptions.
How is this thread's comparison from Dragon Ball Super to Dragon Ball GT
>>147018301
>I can honestly say that I liked Orochimaru & Pain
They were literally the only good villains in the whole series (along with Kisame). Every other villain was a retarded piece of dogshit.
>>147012712
Really? This is the epitome of stronger enemies appearing from no where, for no reason, other than FIGHTAN
>>147020573
I dont know, deidara is fun to watch and he hates uchihas, so thats a bonus
>>147020863
Deidara was entertaining, no doubt. One of the more likeable members of the Akatsuki for sure. The asspull that saved Sasuke from losing to him still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
>>147021500
Deidara is so underrated. I still genuinely believe that he would have had a decent shot at Itachi if he tried. C4 was hella broken.
>>147021840
Eh, Itachi was much stronger than Sasuke at that point.
This guy is my favorite
>>147017046
I agree with this

Nothing tops JoJo villains.
This motherfucker right here is so badass he gives himself a handicap to make things fair.

Enjoy Achmed slitting your throat before raping your daughter.

So all the 3?
And shit Diavolo was not much of a character but he was an amazing villain.
>>147029136
that's why i said arguably. i love diavolo but some people don't

>>147025334
He's a villain because that's how he's framed in the story irrespective of your personal morality, idiot.

*tips*
>>147014410
Buu was about to lose too but bad writing and repetitive character flaws ruined that. Gohan for example.
>>147013443
Hell no

?
You're clearly supposed to root for him until he kills L.
