Who's the smartest character in the history of anime and manga?

powerlevel shit with a different name
>>155022340
Here
Lelouch > Light in terms of intelligence.
>>155022340
If everyone else is retarded as fuck around you being smart is not a big achievement.
Whoever has the smartest writer.
>>155022758
Watari?
>>155022653
Ehhhh no
>>155022890
The correct answer.
>>155022340
(you)
>>155022340
Had Light been intelligent and actually cared about the welfare of humanity, he would have killed each bad guy a different way but he had to get a god complex and let everyone it was a person doing all this shit.
>>155023058
Orochimaru
He fucking got away with everything
Certainly not (you)
Wow, the Death Note Netflix garbage really is bringing in newfags.
>>155023274
>>155023181
I am confuse here, get a grip hivemind
>>155023214
His whole plan was to letting everyone know it was a person doing all this shit so the criminals would have someone to fear and stop committing crimes.
>>155022340
The only reason why Light or L look smart is because the author makes the rest of the world potato retarded.
Death note suck
>>155023323
so what he could he is able to kill people by writing in a notebook. how the hell would someone even get caught. he could literally just attend school live a normal life while writing in his deathnote every other Thursday evening. only reason he was even suspected was because he used his dad's police knowledge, which is fucking stupid. Also why didn't he even bother killing people around the world to take away the attention from japan, i mean come on light fucked up simply because he secretly wanted people to know it was him, aka serial killer behaviour
Is anyone else even trying? All these characters pale in comparison to Kokoro-sama. When will all these 3-digit IQ brainlets learn?
>>155023526
Oddly enough the guy trying to become a god had a bit of an ego.
>>155023511
Zero > Akagi > Kaiji in terms of intelligence IMO.
But then again, I feel like Akagi would win all gamble confrontations with Zero just because of his God-like luck.
>>155023511
>>155023728
Akagi may not be a genius mathematician or great detective, but he is more intelligent than zero when it comes about reading people or psychological manipulation.Zero sequel when?
That guy is pretty good.
Light is shit, he wasnt even the smartest character in his own series
>>155023979
This desu.
Light is shit.
>>155023323
Why not pretend to be a god or something? That way even if you die people will remember the purge and be good for at least a good while.
AMADEUS AMADEUS, AMADEUS.
>>155022340
Likely a powerful godlike being. There should be an anime somewhere with a creature that is omniscient which would make them by default the smartest.
>>155023726
>Oddly enough the guy trying to become a god had a bit of an ego.
Yeah, but at first he was still diluting himself into believing he was a good person doing good things for humanity. And that doesn't change the point that Light was a fucking idiot for not killing shitlords outside of Japan and using police knowledge to help with his killings. An intelligent person would have thought about that before taking action.

Made me laugh
>>155024157
Are you retarded?
Light > Yokoya > Akiyama
>>155022823
You think so?
>>155022340
>
>>155024718
My nigga, Light wasn't caught because everybody was stupid, Akiyama won against smart guys.
>>155023511
Kuuhaku would beat Akagi at mahjong, and they would out-cheat him, too.
Let's not speak of death note because it was so poorly written.
>>155024953
If you're >>155024157, I miss talking to you. What have you been up to?
>>155025050
Working on my finance and optimization projects. :c
>>155024695
what
>>155024958
HAHAHA fuck no. They only win through dumb logic from their universe breaking laws of physics or pure luck
>>155025121
Are you still in college?
>>155024718
>>155024953
Akiyama and Yokoya are doing their shit in specific games with specific rules that are easy to manipuate in order to win. Light and L fight on a much greater scope
>>155023728
Akagi > Shirube >>>> Zero > Kaiji
>>155025181
Yes. In 3 months I will begin my gap year. :c
>>155025192
That's precisely why they are smarter. They managed to use all the matter within those simple rules.
Light is basically an emo with a power.
>>155022340
Dio
Keima
The rich loli from that one haremshit that took her clothes off and wrote physics papers in the wall.
>No Aizen
>>155025122
For the first episode they cheated in every game they came across. They were just so adept at it their opponents (who were inferior cheaters) couldn't tell.
Dumb logic or pure luck doesn't really explain determining NPC patrol routes on the fly and predicting how to position and what to do so that Steph would be able to hit Izuna at the end of that game. That was like Lelouch's masterstroke at the end of R2 but exponentially more difficult and impressive.
Blank beats everyone in this thread easily. But they're also a duo. Either one solo is probably a good match for anyone that's been posted so far
>>155025302
Do you remember me at all?
>>155024958
They will cry like babies if they had to bet their blood IRL
>>155025302
But Light wanted to kill the best detective of the world hidden somewhere almost impossible to locate whereas Akiyama and Yokoya were playing musical chairs.
Well none of them are top tier smart which is why they're at the bottom of my list >>155024610 and why I should've put Kurisu way before them
>>155025340
>fighting jotaro
>he snaps your leg in half sending you flying
>one final attack
>hurrr better use a kick with the same leg he just snapped in half
>NANNIIIIII
This thread just screams fedora
>>155025552
OP said the smartest character, not the autistiest character
>>155025425
no they wouldn't! they bet the sentience of their entire species in a videogame! if they had lost, it would've been a fate worse than death, with all humans becoming the equivalent of livestock.
>>155025423
Unfortunately no desu.
>>155025463
> Kurisu
What you need to get is you can not master GR and advanced maths at 18, when I see something so unrealistic I get angry. Kurisu is nothing but the fantasm of the intelligent and qt and virgin giri.
Did you play the VN ?
And musical chairs is a simply game no ? And Akiyama and Yokoya found how deep it was.
> impossible to locate
Hey, L litterally said who he was.
>>155025784
Does your first name start with an H followed by an A?

>Dumb logic or pure luck doesn't really explain determining NPC patrol routes on the fly and predicting how to position and what to do so that Steph would be able to hit Izuna at the end of that game.
yeah that's just the "I predicted it" bullshit thanks to Shiro's gibberish maths. There's no reasoning behind this, just "I precisely calculated the trajectory of the bullet" or "I precisely calculated the NPC movements" without any explanation
>Lelouch's masterstroke
Same as above, predicting an entire conversation isn't witty, it's bullshit asspull just like the whole R2, but at least NGNL doesn't take itself seriously.
>>155025784
No I didn't. But what about people like Von Neumann, Ramanujan, Kim Ung Yong, Terence Tao, Christopher Hirata who did astounding feats at young age?
>>155022653
>>155024566
t. stupid people

>>155026148
No. :c
>>155026408
> Le terence tao meme
> Le von neumann meme
Please stop with this.
And no, not "astounding feats", maybe their PhD.
Actually, the best mathematician in the world is Peter Scholze.
>>155026963
>implying Von Neumann is not the smartest man who ever lived and Tao isn't an absolute monster either
why do you need to be so contrarian
>>155022340
>Who's the smartest character in the history of anime and manga?
>>155027231
> von neumann
> smartest man
> known for his "utility function" and game theory
> not analysis
> not algebraic geometry
> not group theory
> analytic theory of numbers
> TOP FUCKING KEK !
Also Tao :
> " hue hue he is the best because he won a fields medal when he was 30 !"
Yes and so ?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann#Cognitive_abilities this maybe? Not to mention all the shit he did in other fields
and I'm talking about smartest not most influential. Give me one dude who has more brain power than him
