Heroes in anime don’t need to be cut from the same goody-two-shoes cloth every single time. Sometimes, the people trying to fight to make the world a better place can still send shivers down a viewer’s spine.

Shino Aburame
His Bug Powers Were Icky Yet Satisfying
Naruto

Release Date

Studio
Pierrot
Creator
Masashi Kishimoto
It’s a shame that Shino became a comedy act in Naruto: Shippuden, completely destroying his impressive image that was built up before the time skip. During this time, Shino showed off the powers of chakra insects, although the nature of his techniques was pretty creepy.
It was hard to fathom that the bugs that Shino relied on came from his body, feeding on his chakra to form a symbiotic relationship. This revelation sent shivers down a fan’s spine and made it hard to picture oneself in his shoes, even after his character was assassinated in Naruto: Shippuden.

Fugo is one of the most unique characters in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, appearing in a single fight and showing viewers just how monstrous his stand is. Purple Haze’s appearance is something that fans will remember, with this Stand frothing at the mouth and being hard to control for the user too.
This Stand’s power infects anyone and anything with a terminal virus that will kill them in no time. It’s a Stand so creepily powerful that Fugo had to be written out of the show to make future Stand Battles more interesting, which was an understandable course of action to take.

His Obsession With Kaneki Is A Bit Too Intense
Tokyo Ghoul

Studio

Creator
Sui Ishida
Tokyo Ghoul is a series that could’ve been quite popular had its anime adaptations not royally dropped the ball, but the first anime did a great job of introducing its many iconic characters. This includes Shuu Tsukiyama, a man who is dangerously obsessed with eating Kaneki and pretends to join his group to help him out under the pretense of achieving his goal.

However, over time, this character eventually develops a fondness for Kaneki and helps him out from time to time. However, his creepy obsession never subsides, to the point where he loses the will to live when Kaneki is assumed to be dead after the time skip.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi
A Mad Scientist Who’s Experiments Can Be A Bit Too Inhumane
Bleach
AnimationActionAdventure
Release Date
September 6, 2006
Studio
Pierrot
Creator
Tite Kubo
Bleach is a series full of eccentric characters who are a joy to interact with. However, in Mayuri’s case, he sends shivers down a viewer’s spine despite battling to save Soul Society from its invaders time and time again.
This mad scientist carries out inhumane experiments, going so far as to raise the dead and use grotesque poisons to melt enemies from the inside out. His unnerving grin and creepy demeanor make him a hero that fans will support begrudgingly, making his fights quite entertaining.

Yuno Gasai
The Quintessential Yandere Character Who Serves As Both A Protagonist And Antagonist
Future Diary
MysterySuspenseAction
Release Date
October 10, 2011
Studio
Asread
Creator
Sakae Esuno
The beauty of Future Diary stems from its tantalizing premise, where players of this twisted game have a diary that can predict the future in interesting ways. The main character gets a cut-and-dry diary that accomplishes this goal in a simple manner, while Yuno’s diary embodies her psychotic personality by keeping track of Yukiteru’s movements.
For the most part, Yuno serves as a secondary protagonist who helps her partner out whenever possible, although her obsession reaches dangerous levels and forces Yukiteru to try and avoid her crazy side as much as possible. She’s one of the best and most iconic examples of the creepy yandere character who will carry out some heinous acts to prove her love to the person she’s obsessed with.

Seeing Denji go completely berserk in this form is quite scary, especially during a critical moment in the anime when he faces off against the Eternity Devil, drinking his victim’s blood to regenerate and fighting him for three days before his enemy offers his heart to stop this torture. It’s a creepy moment that shows just how unhinged the Chainsaw Devil can be if let loose.

Eren Jaeger
He Becomes Truly Scary After The Timeskip
Attack On Titan
AnimationAdventureAction
Release Date
April 7, 2013
Studio
Wit Studio, MAPPA
Creator
Hajime Isayama
For the majority of Attack on Titan, Eren Jaeger seems like a run-of-the-mill protagonist who can do no wrong. It’s not until after the time skip that viewers get to see a chilling side to his character that makes him one of the creepiest and most compelling anime characters of all time.
The sight of his savage face after the declaration of war on Paradis Island sends chills down the spine of viewers to this day. However, nothing comes close to the horrific genocide he enacted with the Rumbling, announcing this act in a chilling moment before eliminating 80% of human life before he was eventually stopped by his closest friends.

Guts
The Black Swordsman Is Downright Sinister Back When He’s Introduced
Berserk
AnimationActionFantasy
Release Date
October 8, 1997
Studio
OLM
Creator
Kentaro Miura
When the Black Swordsman is introduced in Berserk for the first time, it’s easy to get creeped out by his bloodthirsty behavior. The way he wields his iconic sword and relishes the act of killing the Snake Lord makes him look deranged.
However, it’s not until the Golden Age arc that fans get to familiarize themselves with Guts in one of the greatest story arcs in anime history. It’s easy to see why he becomes such a creepy, bloodthirsty hero after the trauma he underwent, his mind focused solely on enacting his revenge against Griffith.
