Top Ten Emo Anime Characters

He was just an innocent kid who loved life being around his clan and family. You love your family and you have this innocence about you that you don't know anything yet. Unaware that there was gonna be a Coup d'état, a conflict between the clan and the village. The biggest worry is disappointing your father that's the biggest worry. But relatively he's happy and he comes from that innocence that happiness to seeing his whole clan murdered and his parents dead. And then he was put in a genjutsu and tortured in his mind as well. Here you are a kid you're just now maturing and going through all of this traumatic experience all this trauma and I can't understand why you'd not be normal after that. What person would be normal after all of that. Live in this area and you've got your family around you and then next thing you know, they're dead. Would you be normal after that? Would anyone be normal after that? No. That would traumatize anyone to a certain extent, change their perspectives ...more

Dude, this kid's always been emo. That's what I thought like, the first page that he made an appearence.

The dude is seriously emo. He has issues. He keeps saying "nobody understands me" and "I'm different". He regards people as nuisances who don't know anything. He is OVER emotional about certain matters (pertaining to him). I could seriously see Sasuke listening to Dashboard Confessional while cutting himself someday. (Not that I am trying to offend anyone. )

Your kidding ne right? who the hell calls Sasuke emo? Just look at his past for once he has a reason for all he has done

There is no comment needed. If you the character then you will agree that he is the best. There is no doubt that he should be top of the list.

I don't think so... Well.. I do a little... But come on.. He was known as the PRIDE OF THE GREAT UCHIHA CLAN... !

His hair style is so nice.

Itachi is a HOT emo

Very much one of my favorites! - maddyday

I think out of all of them, Madara is the most emo of them all. After all, he wants revenge, and is really emotional even though he is strong and... I really don't know why Ulquiorra is second, he DOES look emo but that is just the way he looks because, how can someone who doesn't even have emotions be emo? He is just plain badass%~! But... anyway... I love all the characters here... even if they are emo, 'cause they all have reasons to be the way they are%!

No not emo, just obseseed with power and where in the definition of emo is power hungry tyrant that wants to be imortal.

So.. yeah... every one from Naruto is emo just because thy are sad and angry all the time, like- if you had tragic past you will be sad and angry too-_-
Look at Naruto- he has really sad and tragic past but does he look emo - no.
But Madara just wants power, that's it.

"I don't know how to deal with this..." :(

She's pretty damn emo if you think abut it...

Crona is very emo, if you ask me. Sometimes I actually want to read his/her poetry sometimes for some reason..."I don't know how to deal with it! "

Crona doesn't know how to deal with being on this list

He's just plain Rebel Emo -

Im so happy that he is "alive" again, along with Sasori

Nagato is powerful than itachi & absolutely an emo natured guy

He is just so negative upon the world. And he hates his parents, isn't that reason enough?

Well his hair and his opinion on death explains it all

Lelouch embodies what Emo is... Enough said

Sometimes I really wonder do people know what emo is... like really!
And there is a difference between emo and just messed up child
By this logic everyoe from Mirai Nikki is emo, mostly Yuno - cause she's crazy, she likes death, killing and has a tragic past
Yeah -_-

Mei is how I picture emo. She has no friends and is emotional over the idea of getting any friends. She doesn't have any fake friends and doesn't want to take help but I like how she won't let anyone take advantage of that either, at least in the beginning of the anime.

I'm dressing up as her for Halloween

She wears an eyepatch over one of her eyes, wears dark clothing most of the time, raven black hair, and pale skin. How much more emo could you get?

She's badasss laugh out loud

He is like no where near emo

Sanji is a lively womanizer. How the hell is he emo? - ModernSpongeBobSucks

He is definitely not emo. HE IS A WOMANISER - EMO_TRASH

WOMANIZER**** - EMO_TRASH

Emo embodied. A guy who's looking for another guy just so that the other guy can kill him. Not exactly happy.

YES - He is indeed very emo! He truly does hate himself!

He hates humanity. He hates himself. He is always sad or angry. He wants to die and he's immortal. How sad.

He also experienced fright ( when he first found out about his powers and accidentally killed his teachers ) and happiness ( in the short period of time that his brother Natsu was alive ( before he got revived ) ). - Goku02

He had a tragic life and wants to die. My favourite in Fairy Tail. - Goku02

Shinji may not be likable at all, but he is DEFINITELY the most emo anime character of all time. #1 all the way in my book.

Anyone seen Neon Genesis Evangelion? Or maybe End of Evangelion?

Why is this guy not number one?

He should win the top spot,

The real geek turned emo kid

Kaneki should have been no. 1

love him

ACTUAL BAEEE

My favorites are trunks and Goku and Gokus son but vegeta is rude

Hi hair is black enough said

He is the greatest emo
Maybe after broly

Vegeta isn't an Emo just because he has black hair... like seriously? -_-
by the way neither is Goku

Alucard, Ciel, L, Ryuk, ANYONE from Hellsing, Death Note, and Black Butler are NOT Emo. Alucard is Goth. Ciel is Goth. L is just an introverted detective, Ryuk is Goth, and I can go ALL day on which characters are and are not Goth. Black Butler, Death Note and Hellsing is a GOTH anime. NOT an Emo anime.

This dude is just awesome. And Emo. Well, not really, but the way he looks, it gives off that "Emo" styling. Like, when you first see him, you automatically thing, "Man, this guy must be Emo."

Alucard is not Emo, Ciel is not Emo, L is not Emo, Ryuk is not Emo, Sebastian is not Emo, none of these characters from Hellsing, Black Butler and Death Note are Emo. These three anime(s) are just Dark/Gothic anime and these characters are more Gothic. Except L, he's more of an introverted guy.
