Best Capcom Characters

The Top Ten
Dante (Devil May Cry) Dante is a fictional character and the primary protagonist of the Devil May Cry series, created and published by Capcom.

Dante has Yamato, Quicksilver, Pandora, and Rebellion up his sleeve. He's obviously everyone's favorite. I guarantee he could destroy every other Capcom character.

A cyborg in blue armor that shoots lasers? He'd Quicksilver, Yamato that guy, and move on.

A hobo martial artist? He'd pump him full of lead before Thursday could blink.

I don't even think I have to explain how he'd curbstomp Leon.

Phoenix Wright is literally just a lawyer.

Strider would stand a chance, but he'd be killed too, after a long, hard fight.

Seriously though.

Ryu (Street Fighter) Ryu is a video game player character created by Capcom, the protagonist of the Street Fighter series.

Hadouken! Best moves in Street Fighter.

Mega Man (Mega Man) Mega Man, known as Rockman in Japan, is the title character and the protagonist of the Mega Man series by Capcom.

Mega Man is one of my favorite video games and one of my favorite video game icons. He ranks alongside Mario, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Link, Captain Falcon, and Fox McCloud. He's cool, and he knows how to fight the evil robots and the Robot Masters.

I also like Rush and Auto. Mega Man is a superhero-type robot, and it's really cool when he uses other weapons from the Robot Masters. Mega Man 3 is one of the best games in the series, and I still love it - it holds up well.

For me, Classic Mega Man is the best hero ever, and Mighty No. 9 won't replace him, in my opinion. Plus, all the Mega Man Classic games were perfect for me. There wasn't a single Mega Man game that didn't have catchy music.

All in all, no one will change Mega Man. I will always think of it as the best franchise ever. Mega Man for the win!

Leon S. Kennedy (Resident Evil) Leon Scott Kennedy is a fictional character in the Resident Evil horror media franchise by Capcom. He debuted as one of the two playable protagonists of the video game Resident Evil 2.

He's the best. No one in the Resident Evil series can kill him. His personality is very different from others, and he is very intelligent about the situations or outbreaks that happen.

Leon is a classic Resident Evil character, a boss with all weapons. He is cool with the uniform, weapons, hairstyle - everything. Imagine Resident Evil without Leon. It would not be the same.

As one of the main characters of the Resident Evil saga, he deserves more than 9th place.

Phoenix Wright (Ace Attorney) Phoenix Wright, known as Ryūichi Naruhodō in the original Japanese-language versions, is a fictional defense attorney in Capcom's Ace Attorney video game series.

I like Phoenix Wright for these reasons:

1. Unlike all other defense attorneys, he only cares about finding the truth.
2. The game is funny and fun.
3. He is friends with a prosecutor, a really awesome one as well.
4. His game is well-written. A lot of the cases are connected in some way.

I think Ace Attorney, Street Fighter, Mega Man, and Devil May Cry are the best Capcom games in the world.

Phoenix Wright is here? He should be number one. Everyone keeps beating up bad guys and saving the world from some megalomaniac. BORING. Phoenix Wright is still a hero. No powers, no global threat, and he's still called heroic. It's all because of winning seemingly hopeless cases. Wright for the win.

Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers) Morrigan Aensland is a video game character from the Darkstalkers series of fighting games by Capcom, introduced in Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors in 1994.
Chun-Li (Street Fighter) Chun-Li is a character in Capcom's Street Fighter series. The first female fighter of any fighting game franchise, she made her first appearance in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior in 1991.

Why 15th? Chun-Li, Cammy, and Sakura ought to be higher. They made it so much cooler to be a girl in the '90s. Also, spiked bracelets, yo.

Strider Hiryu (Strider)

Sit back now. Let me tell you a tale where evil and injustice do not prevail.

One day, there was a city ruled by a Grandmaster who commanded a robot army and a league of powerful subordinates, governing through fear. Eleven ninjas known as Striders barged into the city and caused a big commotion, but each one was killed. Finally, one last Strider waltzed in, cutting the army and subordinates down to size. He then walked into the Grandmaster's throne room, tore out his heart with his hand, ate it, and strolled out of the city, never to be seen by the citizens again. That Strider was Strider Hiryu, the ultimate embodiment of all that is awesome.

Jill Valentine (Resident Evil) Jill Valentine is a fictional character from the Resident Evil series first appearing in the first Resident Evil game in 1996 as one of the two playable characters, she would also go on to star in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.

Jill is the coolest, the best female character in Resident Evil history, hands down.

Jill Valentine, for me, has cool moves and can glide thanks to the weird robo-insect in her chest.

Felicia (Darkstalkers)

The Newcomers

? Shantae (Shantae) Shantae is the titular main protagonist of the video game series of the same name. The series was developed and published by WayForward Technologies.

The character of Shantae was created by Erin Bozon, who is the wife of Matt Bozon. Matt Bozon serves as the creative director at WayForward.

? Chuck Greene (Dead Rising)
The Contenders
Albert Wesker (Resident Evil)

One of my personal favorite villains in all of media. Iconic when it comes to the Resident Evil franchise.

Wesker is the best villain in Resident Evil, period. And probably the most badass.

Mike Haggar (Final Fight)

A mayor, a wrestler, a badass - to name a few. Not many Capcom characters can claim such an impressive resume.

Chris Redfield (Resident Evil)

Whoever said Leon sucks is stupid, but I like Chris. He is an action-packed character, which makes him fun.

Chris is the man. He's the main protagonist of Resident Evil.

Cammy (Street Fighter) Cammy White, also known as Cammy and the codename Killer Bee in Street Fighter Alpha 3, is a video game character in the Street Fighter fighting game series and the second female fighter to appear in the series, after Chun-Li.
M. Bison (Street Fighter) M. Bison, also known as Dictator, is a video game character created by Capcom. First introduced in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior, he is a recurring character and villain in the Street Fighter series of fighting games, acting as the primary antagonist of the series.

Street Fighter's final boss. He should be higher.

Zero (Mega Man X)

Dude, he could kick almost any Capcom character's ass, especially Dante. I played the Devil May Cry games, and Dante has nothing on Zero. His Z-Saber, badass Z-Buster, shiny red armor, and awesome ponytail - yeah, Zero is the man. At least Zero didn't have to get his hair changed to black.

Tron Bonne (Mega Man Legends)
Poison (Final Fight)
Amaterasu (Ōkami)

Okami is strong enough to spin galaxies and create stars simply by wanting it. She can also revive herself from the dead multiple times over. She is one of the most powerful characters in gaming and could probably kick even Kratos' ass.

It's the time-stealing wolf from a forgotten masterpiece. She's at least better than those Street Fighter idiots.

She's a goddess, a wolf, and she has a giant paintbrush. She's powerful. The only thing else I would like is a sequel!

Vergil (Devil May Cry)

That day, if our positions were switched... Would our fates be different? Would I have your life, and you mine?

Vergil is a beast. The Yamato, his iconic weapon, is also epic!

Akuma (Street Fighter) Akuma known as Gouki in Japan is a character of the Street Fighter series and recurring antagonist, first appearing in Super Street Fighter II Turbo as a hidden character and boss who could be summoned after certain conditions were met, an emotionless and powerful warrior fixated on mastering the Satsui... read more

There are really powerful Capcom characters, but Akuma is hands down the most powerful. If he enters Oni mode, then it's completely one-sided no matter who he fights against.

Akuma is powerful on his own, and when he goes Oni mode, he is one of Capcom's best hopes of taking down major Marvel and DC characters.

His Nine Thousand Fists of Fury are untouchable.

Sir Arthur (Ghosts 'n Goblins)

A legacy character that had a rad refresh for the Sega Dreamcast's Cannon Spike. He is the stuff legends are made of.

Trish (Devil May Cry)
Ken (Street Fighter) Ken Masters, originally spelled in Japanese as 拳, is a fictional character in Capcom's Street Fighter series.

Ken Masters. He can kick your ass and buy out your community, demolish it, and replace it with a mega hotel. And you can't do a damned thing about it.

Captain Commando (Captain Commando)
