Best Anime Side Characters

Bulma from the Dragon Ball series. Honestly, this woman deserves more respect. She made the proud and stubborn Saiyan prince Vegeta listen to her. He has come to respect her highly, and she should be. She's a sassy woman who doesn't mind slapping anyone if she's upset. She is a genius who can drive or create anything she sets her mind to. She knows what to do and how to get it done. That's why I personally feel she should be one of the best anime side characters.

I would've been fine with Nagisa or Karma as the main character. But if Karma was the main character, I think I'd love Assassination Classroom even more. We'd get to really see his sadistic nature, much like we see with Nagisa at some points. Also, he is one hot mess.

This knucklehead is from Assassination Classroom. He might seem like a no-good delinquent, but inside he's a sneaky, intelligent assassin in training. He also has some of the best grades in class despite being a troublemaker.

He has it all! His character in Assassination Classroom made me realize that Karma is the best name anyone could want to have.

A very popular character in the Attack on Titan franchise. A man who's worth ten soldiers - Levi Ackerman. He might seem unemotional, but he is one soldier you don't mess with. That and he helped save the main character who knows how many times.

Hell yeah! I can understand why everyone loves Levi so much, and I love him too.

He even has his own OVA series dedicated to his past titled No Regrets.

One of the only other characters in Naruto I like. It was so sad once you hear why he did the things he did and the burden he put on himself. It was a genuine surprise to me, and I ended up loving this character.

You could do an entire anime series called Itachi, and I would definitely watch that.

Winry Rockbell is my favorite character from the Fullmetal Alchemist series. I love this woman. She's funny, quirky, smart, and just a likable character. Plus, she doesn't end up like one of those childhood friends who don't get the love they always wished for. She actually ends up with Ed.

He's an insane doctor who dissects everything, even himself. He's also one of the strongest meisters in this show. With his witty banter to back him up, Stein helped bring the 'soul' to the anime Soul Eater.

Grell Sutcliff from the Black Butler series! He might be a Shinigami, but he's fabulous. Whether it's the hopeless chase for Sebastian, the over-the-top gestures, or the fantastic weapon he possesses, Grell knew how to make us all laugh.

Haruhi's father is one of my favorite characters. His personality can be fierce yet sympathetic. His life has always been devoted to his family, and he was a great addition to the anime.

I love Killua with my whole heart. He became the best friend for Gon, and I want a friendship like theirs. His character development was crazy.

Ninth/Minene Uryuu from Future Diary. A devious yet sympathetic terrorist who has struggled all her life to survive. She's then forced into a life-or-death game and survives. Despite losing her eye and limb along the process, she still fights hard to win no matter what.

Robert E. O. Speedwagon is an amazing supporting character. He's not some overpowered side character that all the girls love. Robert E. O. Speedwagon is a well-developed character and deserves to be number one on this list.

He literally creates a massive company to assist the Joestars. Why, you ask? Jonathan kicked his ass but spared him. He's clearly the gentleman we want but don't deserve.

A cool, suited-up woman from Psycho-Pass. She's also a specialist at dealing with robots and helps direct drones for the team. She mostly hides her emotions but is shown to be very caring towards certain people.

There wouldn't be a show without him.

"All the evils in the world? Bring thrice as much if you want to stain me!" - Said by the most charismatic and egotistically badass Mesopotamian king, the King of Heroes himself.
