Random Evil Anime Villains With The Blackest Hearts (16 items)

• 

  (#4) Sōsuke Aizen

  • Bleach

  Sōsuke Aizen is one of the most notorious villains in the world of anime, and part of that is because of his dark, evil heart. When he first appears, he seems to a be a loyal member of Soul Society, but he soon reveals that he's been plotting to overthrow it for a long time. He uses a combination of murder and manipulation in order to further his plans and ultimately has no loyalty to anything but his own quest for power.

  (#8) Orochimaru

  • Naruto, Naruto Shippūden, Naruto Shippuden the Movie: Bonds, Ninja World

  Orochimaru kidnaps and experiments on thousands of children, brainwashing and threatening some into being his servants while discarding the bodies of those who don't survive. In a few cases, he even takes over their bodies and lives in them himself. Why do all this? So that he can be immortal, which he apparently needs in order to learn every jutsu in the world.

  What's more, he has no plans to use that information for anyone's benefit except his own. While his horrible deeds don't involve world destruction like those of other Naruto villains, he's one of the few villains who doesn't have an, at least somewhat understandable or forgivable motivation - he's just really freakin' evil.

  (#14) Dino Golzine - 'Banana Fish'

  Dino Golzine is a mafia boss whose primary goals lie in maintaining his own wealth and power, and satisfying his carnal desires - which unfortunately lean toward young boys, including Ash Lynx, who he raised from childhood to be his successor.

  Ash abandons the position largely out of the disgust with Golzine's treatment of him and others, prompting Golzine to pursue Ash with the intensity of a jilted lover. His actions include kidnapping and drugging Ash's friends before forcing him to take their lives, having him sent to an experimental facility where he'll be drugged into submission himself. Golzine wants to either destroy Ash's psyche to the point where he becomes an obedient pet or end his life, and he won't be satisfied with anything less.

  (#10) Junko Enoshima - 'Danganronpa'

  Junko Enoshima is acting out of malice and selfishness, which is what earns her a spot on this list. Because her favorite thing in the world is creating despair and misery, she'll do whatever it takes to make that happen - even organizing survival games that turn innocent people into monsters, and slaying both her twin sister and her love interest after convincing them that she never cared for them in the first place, just to squeeze out the maximum amount of misery before ending them. Junko is sadistic, manipulative, horrifically cruel, and an agent of pure chaos.

  (#6) Overhaul - 'My Hero Academia'

  Overhaul, also known as Kai Chisaki, is the main villain from Season 4 of My Hero Academia, which means that this entry contains some manga-only spoilers.

  Overhaul is a yakuza boss who initially seeks to forge a partnership with the League of Villains. He introduces himself by blasting Magne to bits and critically injuring Mr. Compress. He believes that quirks originated from rats, and that they're actually disgusting sicknesses rather than something that should be valued. He wants to eliminate quirks from the human population and found the opportunity to do so in Eri, a little girl whose cells could be used to create a quirk destroying drug. The only person he ever showed any concern for was his boss - but while he once eliminated anyone who went against his boss, he put him in a coma himself when he refused to accept Overhaul's plan to use Eri, his granddaughter.

  All in all, the man shows not one iota of remorse for his actions and places little to no value on human life.

  (#2) Griffith

  • Berserk Golden Age Arc I: The Egg of the King, Berserk Golden Age Arc II: The Battle for Doldrey

  Part of what makes Griffith so cruel is that he didn't just attack unsuspecting victims - he betrayed his comrades. The Band of the Hawk was a group of mercenaries who considered Griffith an important friend and ally, and in fact once rescued him from captivity despite the great personal risk they incurred by doing so. Griffith's lust for power was so consuming that when he got the opportunity to become a god called Femto, he willingly sacrificed the lives of just about all of his former friends in the process. Oh, and he assaulted Casca, forcing her lover Guts to watch.

  Why does he do all this? Because he desperately wants to create and rule his own kingdom - likely as a reaction to a childhood marred by extreme poverty.
