Let's now check out some of the best swordsmen in anime ! So, among so many characters who master the art of the sword, we certainly have our favorites and those who stand out the most. So, with that in mind, we've compiled this top 5 of our favorite swordsmen. Now, without further ado, let's get to know them:
Best Swordsmen in Anime – Top 5
5. Kirito: First, let's kick off the list with our Sword Art Online GM. He's a complete master of the game and has proven himself to be a powerful character from the very beginning. Furthermore, it's worth highlighting his kindness, which makes him such a beloved and lovable character. But make no mistake, when this guy is enraged, he can be quite frightening. Anyway, the anime franchise has countless seasons, and its novel is also sensational.
4. Musashi: Now, let's talk about a character based on real life. Musashi was a legendary samurai who mastered the art of the sword and wrote works that are now considered true literary classics. Thus, we can see his actions romanticized in the manga, where we follow his entire journey. In fact, it's one of the best mangas out there, and I highly recommend reading it. Not only does it delight us with fantastic scenes, but it also brings us the purest Eastern philosophy.
Best Swordsmen in Anime – Top 3
03. Know
And now in our top 3, we have our beloved Saber, also inspired by King Arthur! Therefore, she is by far one of the most powerful servants in the series and couldn't be left off the list with her Excalibur. Incidentally, Fate was initially a game, but its success was so great that it spawned an anime franchise that now has several seasons. The entire series is undoubtedly very dynamic and features incredible battles.
02. Kenshin Himura
Now, we'll all feel nostalgic as we recall this work. Samurai X was certainly a childhood memory for many and is considered a classic of the Japanese film industry. It's also worth highlighting the live-action films, which were sensational. As for the character, I have no words to describe him, as he's a true swordsman.
01. Roronoa Zoro
And finally, we have the future strongest swordsman in the world. Furthermore, Zoro is undoubtedly the most famous swordsman today, thanks to the One Piece series, which continues to grow even after so many years in the industry. Regardless, our hunter is undoubtedly one of the most beloved characters in the series and couldn't be left out of this list.
So, what did you think of our list? I hope you enjoyed it. Of course, there are countless other characters who deserve to be here, but we're happy with our favorites who left a mark on us in some way. Anyway, have a great weekend, and see you next time!
