00:00 Welcome to WatchMojo and today we're counting down the most despicable antagonists in anime.
00:28 The only thing worse than a bloodthirsty radical is one with guns for hands.
00:33 And that's just one of her upgrades.
00:35 Using her endless assortment of bodily enhancements, Seriou set out to exterminate anyone she deemed
00:41 evil, aka anyone who doesn't immediately bend to her warped view of justice.
00:52 That put the Night Raid in her line of fire, and unfortunately, she does quite the number
00:56 on their ranks.
00:57 Still, she isn't satisfied.
00:59 Even when the Night Raid puts her down for good, Seriou decides to go out with an actual
01:04 bang.
01:05 You gotta give Seriou credits for one thing – she was heartless until the very end.
01:17 In a world where friends are hard to come by, Bam always had Rachel.
01:32 He helped her climb the tower, protected her from monsters, and even nursed her back to
01:37 health when she lost feeling in her legs.
01:39 So after all that, how did Rachel repay him?
01:42 By shoving him down to his doom, that's how.
01:50 Not only did she betray her one friend, but she had the gall to laugh about it after the
01:54 fact too.
01:56 Even if she is being manipulated, there's simply no way to forgive Rachel for what she's
02:00 done.
02:01 After all, Bam's injuries may heal, but his heartbreak is here to stay.
02:09 8.
02:10 Akainu – One Piece
02:17 To this admiral, absolute justice looks a lot like absolute power.
02:21 And you know what they say about that.
02:23 Akainu was corrupted long before he ever met Luffy in the Straw Hats, and these days, no
02:28 one is safe from his wrath.
02:30 Not Whitebeard, not Luffy, and not even a boat of innocent refugees.
02:39 And yet, beyond all that, Akainu's biggest sin is that he was the one that killed Ace.
02:45 By murdering the person Luffy sacrificed everything to save, Akainu went from an evil villain
02:50 to an outright irredeemable one.
03:01 Whitebeard evens the score with a furious punch to the face, but somehow Akainu deserved
03:06 much, much worse.
03:09 7.
03:10 Mahito – Jujutsu Kaisen
03:21 Cursed spirits aren't exactly known for their friendliness, but this special grade
03:25 takes it to a whole other level.
03:26 See, Mahito doesn't just kill people, he does it with a smile.
03:31 As if plotting the downfall of humanity isn't bad enough on its own, it feels extra malicious
03:36 – coming from that same sadistic smirk.
03:47 To make matters worse, Mahito's method leans toward the cruel and unusual.
03:51 With one look at what he did to the downtrodden Junpei, it's very obvious how little Mahito
03:56 cares about human life.
03:58 Itadori had the right idea – someone like Mahito doesn't just need to be defeated,
04:03 they need to be killed.
04:06 6.
04:08 Freeza – Dragon Ball Franchise
04:11 Most villains don't spend their pastime blowing up planets.
04:14 Then again, Lord Freeza isn't most villains.
04:17 He enslaved the Saiyans, blew up their world, and made them do the same to other races in
04:22 the galaxy.
04:23 And that was before the series even started.
04:33 When Goku and the others caught up to him on Namek, he introduced himself by blasting
04:37 most of them to pieces – first Vegeta, then Krillin, and then the entirety of the planet.
04:46 Freeza's selfishness knows no bounds, and neither does his lust for vengeance.
04:51 In fact, if there's one thing this space tyrant has taught us, it's that, even in
04:55 death, Freeza knows how to hold a grudge.
05:05 5.
05:08 Griffith – Berserk
05:17 Some leader this guy is.
05:19 When Griffith was captured by enemies, Guts and his team gave it their all to get him
05:23 back.
05:24 And in return, he led them all to slaughter.
05:27 At the behest of the Apostles, Griffith branded the entire Band of the Hawk as blood sacrifices.
05:37 Then he sat back and watched as his former allies were all eaten alive in front of him.
05:42 Although, being devoured by monsters might be getting off easy compared to the unspeakable
05:46 things Griffith did to Gutska.
05:49 Especially since he makes Guts watch.
05:51 His pained screams say it all.
05:53 Former friend or not, there's no coming back from this.
06:00 4.
06:02 Oberon – Sodor Online
06:12 In Alfheim Online, he's the Fairy King.
06:15 In the real world, he's a businessman.
06:17 But in both, Oberon is a grade-A creep.
06:21 Without getting into the specifics, let's just say he subjects Asuna to behaviour so
06:25 reprehensible it earns him a one-way trip behind bars.
06:39 Pathetic as always, though, Oberon doesn't go down without a fit.
06:43 After Kirito saves Asuna in the game, Oberon tries to get revenge IRL.
06:49 And it goes about as well as you'd expect.
07:01 If there's a light at the end of this very, very dark tunnel, it's the look on Oberon's
07:05 face when he realises he's finally going to pay for everything he's done.
07:10 3.
07:11 Naruto Shimura – Naruto Shippuden
07:17 The Hidden Leaf Village is tainted with generations of pain, hate and violence.
07:22 Most of them lead back to one person – Danzo.
07:25 Back in the day, it was his manipulation that forced Itachi to slaughter his clan.
07:30 From there, Danzo tried to kill, cheat and mind-control his way to the very top of the
07:35 Shinobi world.
07:42 He claims it's all for the good of his village, but it's obvious from here that Konoha would
07:47 have been much better off without him.
07:49 The Uchiha certainly would have.
07:50 Considering what he did to their clan, it's only fitting that Sasuke got the honour of
07:54 putting Danzo in his place.

08:03 This Multi-Mel remark – The Rising of the Shield Hero
08:06 Don't be fooled by her bubbly exterior.
08:13 As Naofumi learned the hard way, "Mine is all sour, no sweet."
08:17 Forget about her lavish spending or two-faced personality, she went as far as to accuse
08:22 Naofumi of extremely indecent behaviour, and for no other reason than to steal his belongings.
08:31 Keep in mind, she's a princess.
08:36 She doesn't need his money, she just wants to watch him suffer.
08:40 At the very least, Multi gets exactly what she deserves – that being a new name, courtesy
08:44 of Naofumi himself.
08:54 She doesn't love the ring of it, though, and immediately turns around and tries to
08:58 poison everyone.
08:59 Some people just never learn.

09:18 Sho Takah – Full Metal Alchemist
09:20 There's not a redemption arc in all of fiction capable of rehabilitating someone like Sho
09:28 Takah.
09:29 He was a horrible man, a horrible scientist, and above all, a horrible father.
09:34 Despite the threat of the law, Sho conducted grossly inhumane transfiguration experiments
09:40 using unwilling participants, including his oblivious daughter, Nina.
09:50 She was a sweet, innocent girl whose only crime was trusting her own father.
09:55 Knowing the suffering she endured in the name of Sho's so-called "science" is almost
10:00 too much to stomach.
10:01 In the end, the only solace is that, thanks to Scar, this sick man can never hurt anyone
10:07 ever again.
10:17 Which of these villains most deserved a punch to the face?
