00:10Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the top 20 instant death techniques in anime.

00:24Number 20, Respira.
00:30ใ‚ขใƒญใ‚ฌใƒณใƒ†ใ‚ฃใ€‚
00:35When activating his Resurrection, the former god-king of Hueco Mundo takes on a form very reminiscent of death itself.
00:43So it's rather fitting that this ability of his can end his foes instantly.
00:48Respira.
00:51Roughly translated as, the breath of death,
00:55Respira is a smoke-like miasma that Baragon unleashes that can even quickly catch up to someone as fast as Soy Thorn.
01:03It can immediately rot its targets at an incredible speed, reducing them to just bones in seconds.
01:15Respira is so incredibly dangerous that even Baragon himself became a victim to it after it entered him.
01:26ๆฑšใ„้‡ใŒใ€‚
01:28Number 19, Overhaul.
01:30My Hero Academia.
01:32Yes, Shigaraki's Decay is an amazing ability that we'll get into later on this list,
01:38but we have to give credit where it's due when it comes to Kai Chisaki's Quirk.
01:47Sharing the same name as his alias, Overhaul grants him the ability to disassemble,
01:53as well as reassemble the matter of anything he touches.
02:05Now he could use these abilities for good, like healing others, but that just isn't Overhaul's style.
02:10Instead, he's often using it to send others to the afterlife in an instant.
02:20Number 18, Death Inducement.
02:22Is this a zombie?
02:30Don't let this shy girl fool you.
02:32She actually has powers so great that she's forced to wear heavy armor just to suppress it.
02:38Yukla would often avoid speaking, mainly communicating through notes,
02:42and the reason for that is due to her ability, Death Inducement.
02:53With it, all she has to do is mutter the word,
02:57die to someone, and it will kill them in an instant.
03:01The only side effect of this ability is that it'll give her intense headaches,
03:05but that's nothing compared to whoever is on the receiving end of it.
03:16Number 17, Megiddo.
03:19That time I got reincarnated as a slime.
03:22After Falmouth's invasion of Tempest resulted in the deaths of many of his friends,
03:27including the lovable Xion,
03:29Rimuru devises a plan to bring them back to life by becoming a Demon Lord.
03:41However, in order to do this, he needs a vast amount of souls,
03:45and what better target than the ones that invaded the kingdom?
03:53After trapping them in a barrier, Rimuru unleashes Megiddo,
03:57a magic ability that essentially turns small water droplets into laser beams.
04:02With this, he's able to instantly kill thousands of soldiers within just a few seconds.
04:15Number 16, Meido Zanketsuha, Inuyasha.
04:20Transferred from the Tenseiger and sealed within the Tenseiger by Sesshomaru's father Toga,
04:26the Meido Zanketsuha is perhaps the most unique ability on this list.
04:31He's opened the path to the Underworld.
04:33The Underworld?
04:35Starting off as a crescent shape before evolving into a black sphere,
04:40this attack can instantly send its target to the Netherworld, pulling them in like a black hole.
04:46I would not allow my life to be taken by scum like you!
04:52What sets this apart from the rest is that it doesn't actually harm whoever is hit by the technique.
04:58It just instantly renders them dead after they've been transported.
05:02What your father did was cruel!
05:04He was cruel, you hear?!
05:07Number 15, Lelouch's Geass. Code Geass, Lelouch of the Rebellion.
05:17In this world, Geass is a supernatural ability that works differently depending on whoever the user is.
05:25Bestowed upon him by C2, Lelouch's Geass is the power of absolute obedience.
05:37This gives him the ability to command anyone to do whatever he pleases upon eye contact.
05:42Now, why is Geass on this list?
05:45Well, Lelouch can command his enemies to put an end to themselves, which they are more than happy to oblige right away.
05:56Number 14, Miss Dispersion. The Irregular at Magic High School.
06:01There's no denying it, Tatsuya is a living force of nature and a super weapon that could turn the tides of any war.
06:16However, within his arsenal of magical abilities, Miss Dispersion is perhaps his most quick and efficient lethal ability.
06:24With this decomposition-type spell, Tatsuya can directly decompose the physical structure of his target, whether it's inanimate or living.
06:33The unfortunate person on the end of this attack will quickly turn into steam and then scatter, as though they never existed in the first place.
06:47What makes Miss Dispersion such a terrifying spell is that it's quiet and can be aimed through physical objects, making it incredibly tough to avoid.
06:57Number 13, Force Manipulation. Chainsaw Man.
07:06As the anime has only adapted a very partial amount of the manga, we've not been able to fully see what Makima is capable of.
07:14However, this scene has haunted us ever since.
07:27With a line of human sacrifices, Makima is able to take out Sawatari's gang with her deadly Force Manipulation ability.
07:40From a long distance, each one is instantly crushed to death one after the other, without realizing what exactly is going on.
07:48Honestly, it's a miracle Katana Man and Sawatari were able to get away from it.
07:53Number 12, All-Killing Ash Bones. Naruto Shippuden.
08:01It's little to no surprise that the first wielder of chakra conjured up the perfect technique for killing her enemies.
08:08With the All-Killing Ash Bones attack, Kaguya hardens her very own bones and fires them out of her skin towards her enemies.
08:16For whoever is on the receiving end of this attack, it's game over as their body will begin to deteriorate at a molecular level, causing them to disintegrate.
08:32This is without a doubt one of the most deadly attacks in the franchise.
08:36But luckily for Naruto, he happens to be very good at his shadow clone jutsu.
08:47Number 11, Instant Death Ability. My Instant Death Ability is so overpowered.
08:53We've seen many, many isekai protagonists over the years with absolutely insane powers that can take out just about anything, but this one goes beyond the rest.
09:05After being transported to another world by Xion, Yogiri obtains the ability to instantly kill anyone he wants with just a single thought.
09:21Honestly, it doesn't get any simpler than that. And because of this, there's a long line of foes that he's effortlessly killed.
09:28Yogiri's Instant Death Ability is so limitless that he's able to kill even entities from a higher plane of existence.
09:43Number 10, Cannibalization. See the money of soul and possibility of control.
09:50The surprise lovechild of card games and money, this series spared no expense when it came to portraying greed in the most shounen way possible.
09:59Via magical battles where users summon monsters by betting their fortunes and futures.
10:06As Mikuni and Jennifer's high-stakes deal comes to a close, he pulls out all the strings of the card game.
10:14As Mikuni and Jennifer's high-stakes deal comes to a close, he pulls out all the strings of the card game.
10:21Including summoning an asset that can literally take a bite out of the competition, which she did when her jaws crushed the last of Jennifer's defenses.
10:33Number 9, Decay. My Hero Academia.
10:39From the moment we saw him use this quirk on Aizawa's elbow, we knew that this ability would be lethal.
10:46With Decay, Shigaraki is able to destroy anything or anyone he's able to touch, disintegrating them into dust in an instant.
10:55After undergoing his awakening, Shigaraki's quirk grows strong enough to cover a wide area, disintegrating an entire city along with whoever inhabits it.
11:10This evolution resulted in the deaths of many pro heroes.
11:23Watch out, Deku. You might be able to smash him up, but if the new leader of the League of Villains gets you in his range, it's goodbye.
11:38Number 8, Suzumebachi. Bleach.
11:41This little bee has one hell of a sting, and while you might manage to walk away from the first, you most certainly won't the second time around.
11:58Saifan more than lives up to her moniker as an assassin, especially with her zanpakuto, which grants her the ability to terminate any target just as long as she strikes the same place twice in a row.
12:21Combined with her insane speed and agility, it's fair to say a lot of her opponents don't last very long.
12:37Number 7, Deconstruction. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.
12:41Brutal, yet effective. When it comes to this one-man crusade against state alchemists, Scar doesn't have to completely follow through with the three stages of alchemy,
13:00since he's perfectly happy stopping at the second and letting loose destructive energy from his fingertips in order to fulfill his desire for revenge.
13:11You can't argue with his results, since his violent methods have managed to bring down weaklings like Shotaka all the way to veterans like Basque Grand.
13:26Better watch out, otherwise he'll make your face explode.
13:30Number 6, Killer Queen. JoJo's bizarre adventure, Diamond, is unbreakable.
13:44While its place on the podium of most powerful stands can easily be contended, Yoshikage Kira's inner murder machine still stands as one of the most proficient when it comes to dispensing his foes.
14:02It might be able to be overwhelmed in direct combat, but your chances of survival are pretty much zero if he manages to catch you unaware.
14:17Thanks to its ability of bomb transfusion, anything this creepy kitty touches can turn into a deadly explosion.
14:26Its primary bomb is strong enough to turn any stand user into mulch, and that's all before he really kicks things up by unleashing Bites the Dust.
14:40Number 5, Saitama's Punch. One Punch Man.
14:55Sure, not everything this caped baldy hits immediately gets broken into bloody chunks, but that's usually because he's holding back.
15:03If you're a monster looking to pick a fight, then it's pretty much guaranteed Saitama is going to be wiping your remains off his dorky-looking gloves.
15:12Considering even a minor hit can eliminate colossal supervillains like they were nothing, you'd best believe anything caught in the crosshairs of his serious punch is not going to be getting back up again.
15:32I mean, just ask the majority of the Monster Association.
15:42Number 4, True Death, Overlord.
15:51As horrifying as it might be to see such a noble warrior like Gazef get axed in less than a second, on the bright side, at least he didn't end up meeting all the horrific fates Bone Daddy Ains has granted to the rest of his victims.
16:08As a twisted act of respect, as opposed to letting his Lovecraftian goat demons trample the honourable knight, the Supreme One decided to grant a merciful death by stalling time and unleashing an uber-spell that snatched the life out of him then and there.
16:28Number 3, Crime and Punishment, Bungo Stray Dogs.
16:40While his greatest and deadliest asset remains his intelligence, it would be wrong to say the enigmatic leader of the rats in the house of the dead is powerless in a physical fight.
16:56In fact, if you get too close, you are guaranteed to end up as a corpse.
17:03While the full depth of his ability remains a mystery, Fyodor is still a gifted, and as such has access to a deadly supernatural force most mortals can't contend with.
17:16In this instance, it just happens to be the ability to kill anyone he touches. No wonder Dazai's afraid of this guy.
17:27Number 2, Hakai, Dragon Ball Super.
17:33You can't be a god of destruction without having a planet-busting arsenal up your sleeve, and as it happens, the death dealers of the multiverse have this little trick.
17:49Taking the form of purple energy of varying size, anything it touches ends up getting disintegrated, whether it be landscapes or arrogant kai's.
18:02Granted, certain Saiyans have found the strength to deflect and break through certain variations of them, but as for the other 99.99% of the cosmos, not so much.
18:19Especially when it's implemented by someone like Beerus.

18:50Number 1, Hokuto Shinken, Fist of the North Star.
19:03It's the martial art that makes mincemeat of raiders and wasteland scumbags everywhere.
19:09With but a poke, everyone's favourite badass Kenshiro has shown to be able to cause his enemies' heads to explode.
19:17And that's just one of his tricks.
19:25No matter how fearsome his opponents may be, or how many muscles they're packing, you can always count on the 7-star Scar Survivor to unleash a wide variety of strikes, screams and a certain catchphrase.
19:39All of which inevitably lead to his foes ending up as another post-apocalyptic stain.
