(#1) Killua Zaoldyeck
- Hunter x Hunter
Killua Zoldyck shares a few similarities with the main protagonist of Hunter X Hunter, Gon Freecss. Killua and Gon both display a kind-hearted attitude that is most commonly found in children. What separates Killua from Gon, however, is that when provoked by an enemy, he doesn't hesitate to show his bloodthirsty side.
Much of that comes from his background growing up in a family of assassins, a lifestyle he eventually rebelled against.

(#13) Ruri Gokou - Oreimo
With a lead character as loud and obnoxious as Kirino Kousaka, it's not hard to find one to surpass her in Oreimo. One that stands out in particular is the gothic Ruri Gokou, or Kuroneko, as she prefers to be called.
Like Kirino, Kuroneko is an obsessive otaku who writes pretentious doujinshi as well as novels that cater exclusively to her taste. However, Kuroneko's bashful side and sweet relationship with Kyousuke makes her far more palatable than Kirino.

(#10) Sagara Sanosuke
- Rurouni Kenshin
There's no better way to grab the viewer's attention than to carry around a monstrous sword wherever you go. That's how Sagara Sanosuke made his debut on Rurouni Kenshin; he wields the Zanbatō like it's no big deal. Even after Kenshin destroys the Zanbatō , Sanosuke remains a captivating character to watch.
His brash attitude makes him easier to relate to than Kenshin, and his fighting style following the Zanbatō's destruction becomes more engaging to behold. Watching him try to master the Futae no Kiwami in order to avoid the punishment of death is one of the highlights of the Kyoto arc.

(#8) Rock Lee
- Naruto, Naruto Shippūden, Naruto the Movie: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom, Naruto Shippuden the Movie, Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Will of Fire, Ninja World
Although the Naruto anime constantly paints its lead character as an outcast, Naruto's obnoxious behavior makes him hard to sympathize with. Plus, those Nine-Tailed Demon Fox powers of his always give him what feels like an unfair leg up on the competition.
Rock Lee, on the other hand, is the epitomic loveable underdog. Unlike most of the ninjas in the series, Rock Lee doesn't possess the skills to perform ninjutsu and genjutsu. However, through sheer determination, he is able to go toe-to-toe with the near-unstoppable Gaara using only his non-magic physical abilities.

(#4) Vegeta
- Dragon Ball Z Kai, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound, Dragon Ball Z: Bardock – The Father of Goku, Dragon Ball Z: The History of Trunks, Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler, Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan, Plan to Destroy the Saiya-jin, Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!, Dragon Ball
Out of all the Dragon Ball Z characters, no one has gone through a journey quite like Vegeta's. Initially, he's portrayed as an unbeatable bad guy, but over time he evolves into a key, yet untrustworthy ally, Vegeta's character arc is one of the strongest in the show.
The real change to his character comes in the "Majin Buu saga," as he finally admits he'll never be able to match Goku's powers and begins to fully embrace his role as a family member. Considering his previous dedication to destroying the Earth in season one of Dragon Ball Z, watching Vegeta humiliate himself in order to save the planet from Beerus, the God of Destruction, in Battle of the Gods is an amazing turnaround.
It's also surprising that, when you take Dragon Ball Super into account, Vegeta becomes a more caring husband and father than Goku.

(#2) Karma Akabane - Assassination Classroom
Ever school has its class clown, and Class 3-E is no different. At first glance, Karma Akabane comes off as a lazy troublemaker that's obsessed with humiliating his classmates. Once you get past this first impression, Karma reveals himself to be a sympathetic and hardworking student.
This class clown is also considered to be the strongest of the Class 3-E students, and his hits usually play out like pranks. Nagisa Shiota isn't bad, but he can't compete with Karma's zany charm.
