Random Anime Characters Survived Impossible Situations (13 items)

• 

  (#2) Obito Uchiha

  • Naruto Shippūden

  Obito Uchiha has survived a truly terrifying amount of physical damage. Not only did he somehow manage to stay alive after having half of his body crushed underneath a boulder, he survived being fused with plant matter - most people's immune systems would simply reject the Zetsu, a process that can be fatal.

  When Obito went up against Konan, it was already unbelievable enough that he was there at all. But the fact that he survived the encounter was even more incredible. Konan showers Obito with 600 billion paper bombs for a full ten minutes, overcoming the 5 minute limit of Obito's impenetrable defense. The only way he was able to survive was by using his time-space jutsu to rewrite history so that he survived.

  (#7) Nezuko Kamado Of 'Blade of Demon Destruction' Survived A Demon Attack 

  Aside from her brother Tanjirou, who was out selling coal at the time, Nezuko Kamado is the sole survivor of a demon massacre. Though Nezuko is older and therefore slightly more physically capable than most of her siblings, she possesses no particular training or abilities that could have reasonably helped her survive the onslaught. Because she was transformed into a demon, it's clear that she was actually attacked - she didn't manage to survive by running away. It's nothing short of a miracle that she survived an onslaught that took the lives of her whole family.

  (#13) Tomoe Marguerite

  • My-Otome

  During her final showdown with Arika, Tomoe's armor breaks. Then she falls headfirst to the ground from 1000 feet in the sky. Everyone present thinks that there's no possible way she could have survived, and in fact, the castle guards literally pronounce her dead and start preparing to load her into a body bag. She leaps up and hollers at them for their ignorant assumption. How she actually survived is anyone's guess.

  (#8) Pell Appeared To Sacrifice His Life In 'One Piece' 

  In the world of One Piece, characters often survive the unsurvivable. There are so many examples that you could probably have a whole list dedicated solely to One Piece alone, but for now let's focus on Pell, a Royal Soldier of Alabasta. In order to save Alabasta from destruction, Pell grabs a gigantic bomb in his talons and flies so far into the stratosphere that the city is unharmed by the explosion. The same presumably can't be said for Pell himself - everyone who sees him assumes that he heroically sacrificed his life. 

  But somehow, Pell survives the blast, and returns to Alabasta to bear witness to his own grave.

  (#12) Ryo Marufuji Survived Being Electrocuted During A Cage Match In 'Yu-Gi-Oh! GX' 

  How many times can you get electrocuted before you stop being alive anymore? This is a question that Yu-Gi-Oh! GX steadfastly refuses to answer. There is no way that an ordinary human being with no magical powers could survive being shocked every time he loses a card game in an illegal underground cage match, but that's exactly what happens to Ryo Marufuji, known as Zane in the dub. Even more confusing is the fact that when he develops a heart condition that leaves him hospitalized, the show refuses to attribute this to his repeated electrocutions. Instead, it's because he used the Cyberdark Deck, which gave him an "evil" personality.

  Oh, and then there's the fact that at one point during the series, he was presumed dead after a duel, but washed up on the beach for seemingly no reason in Season Four. Because continuity doesn't matter in Yu-Gi-Oh!

  (#11) Riko Of 'Made In Abyss' Was Born Into Circumstances That Would Destroy Most Adults

  The Abyss, the yawning hole in the middle of the Earth that dominates life in Made in Abyss, is nearly impossible to explore. Not only is the Abyss filled with dangerous predatory creatures, but the Curse of the Abyss also causes anyone who tries to ascend it to become horrifically ill, lose their humanity, or pass away. The effects become more severe the further into the Abyss a person ventures.

  Because her mother was a White Whistle - a person whose job it is to explore the Abyss - Riko was actually born near the bottom. The ascent could easily have killed an adult, but Riko survived because she was placed in a curse-repelling container. Still, that's a lot for a newborn baby to endure, especially without any major side effects aside from recurrent headaches. 

  Later in life, Riko survives her own encounter with the Abyss. While the story has yet to wrap itself up, in the first season Riko endures multiple monster attacks, including a bite from a poisonous creature that makes her arm swell and turn purple, and would have taken her life if not for the round-the-clock care of Reg and Nanachi. Her incredible luck and resilience is impressive.
