Sometimes the bad guys can turn good! For this list we’re looking at characters that used to be evil but became heroes from shows like; A Certain Magical Index, Fairy Tail, Hunter x Hunter, Shaman King, Gurren Lagann, Digimon Adventure 02, Naruto Shippuden, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Dragon Ball Z, and Yu Yu Hakusho. Expect the likes of Scar, Hiei, and Vegeta to appear along the way – They’re now some of the most loved anime characters but they were once fighting on the darkside.

  1. #10: Hey, its the anime I should be watching if I wasn’t stuck finishing Danball Senki WARS. Looks good though.
    #9: Weird thing, when I learned about Fairy Tail from amvs, it looked like Gajeel’s element was wind. And Gajeel’s awesome for one thing, if Natsu pulls off something half the fans view as bullshit, Gajeel weaponizes and takes full advantage of it to make it work.
    #8: Really?
    #7: Ah Shaman King, you made another watchmojo list! A great dub (yeah from 4Kids somehow), with one of the best english openings (somehow 4Kids), and i think the manga and anime endings are great. And Ren does what he does best in both, nearly losing fights and still kicking butt.
    #6: We knew he was going to make this list.
    #5: Controversial opinion, he’s a good Digimon Sixth Ranger, but I feel like Beezelbubmon was betterr, Koichi and Kiriha/Christopher were decent too.
    #4: Insert TALK NO JUTSU and WHY ISN’T HE IN THE TOP THREE comments. But Gaara deserves it.
    #3: Haven’t watched the anime, knew there would be no way he wouldn’t make it.
    #2: So who should be in Jump Force, Hiei or Kurama? Oh yeah, Hiei originally was going to be just a monster of the week but when Team Yusuke was formed, he was so popular they had to bring him back.
    #1: Is anyone surprised Vegeta’s number 1.

  2. Piccolo should be on number one and Vegeta on number two and Ken from Digimon Adventure two should be on numbee three!
