Easily Akatsuki, with Phantom Troupe second, and Espadas third. Shouldn't one piece be Shinichbuki (however you spell that)

I loved that part 2 of Naruto had Akatsuki as the central antagonist instead of Orochimaru (which I never liked). I really liked their character design, their goal and how they meet. I liked how even though they were in an organization, everyone aside from Konan and Pain (and maybe Kisame), had their own personal motives and they act selfish and don't really have a sense of friendship between themselves.

The structure of the arcs between two memebrs was nice, we get to see a closer look between partners, most notably Hidan and Kakzu, I really liked their interactions. I think the thing I liked the most about the Akatsuki, was their backstory of how they formed, which gets revealed later, along with nice plot twists, that along with Pain being their leader at first. They are really badass and hard not to like.

They're corrupt but plenty of their actions are more or less for the greater good although the means they use are pretty shitty. Also the Shichibukai might work for them and will come to help when they're asked to but overall don't really care.

Both groups can count as antagonists but neither as good or evil especially the Shichibukai since 4 of them are kinda on friendly terms with the protagonists.

Phantom Troupe, mostly because of Chrollo, he's such an intriguing character.

I also liked Akatsuki, loved their mysterious meetings and I was always super thrilled when a new Akatsuki member showed up.

Bach's Quincy from Bleach are yet to be defeated.
The World Government in One Piece is yet to be defeated as well.

OT: Shouldn't it be the WG for One Piece? Each Shichibukai basically has their own organization unlike all the others that are one group with one purpose.
In that case, you'd have several different organizations under the umbrella of the WG (and those like the Yonkou that aren't.)
Either way, the WG is the largest organization out of all of them, and serve as a force for both good and bad. It's the group that can't really be put into either camp. The rest are just bad.

Only having watched Naruto, HxH and FMA, I choose Akatsuki. I liked all of the characters because they had distinct features and personal motives. The interactions between the members were interesting, plus the battles each of them encountered were great to watch since we could learn more about their abilities.

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

I don't know about Bleach, because I haven't seen it. But as far as One Piece is concerned, I don't see the World Government as something to be defeated. In other words, they shouldn't really be considered antagonists, seeing as they are the World Government and all.

Well, since Luffy and co are the protagonists and the WG is against them, they officially qualify as antagonists. Of course, the organization is so huge that it is hard to assign it any one role. Some members actually help the Strawhats while others are against them.

In the end, it's hard to pick any one organization for One Piece because each Shichibukai has their own, the WG is very varied and the Yonkou also have individual organizations.

Akatsuki and Phantom Troupe are tied for me, probably because they are pretty similar. Akatsuki got much more screen time, basicly most of Shippuuden so it got developed and explored more, but on the other hand because PT didn't get that much screen time makes me almost like them more because there is just mystery about them lingering in the air.

Espadas were pretty good and the Akatsuki were great, but I voted for the Phantom Troupe because they fit into the classic "bad guys" trope, who steal because they want to live the life but also aren't one-dimensional, have a really noticeable bond and feel very real.

These three are far above the rest though. Unless I'm forgetting something about the Homonculi lol.

I like the Espada members better but I guess I'll chose the Akatsuki because it actually has members working together in pairs while the Espadas just operate as individuals and are more hostile and distant with each other.

The Light from Young Justice though is superior to any battle shonen villain organization. Granted I haven't seen the Phantom Trope in action yet and haven't seen the Homunculus and Shichibukai though judging by their descriptions I doubt they are as good as the Light. The thing that makes the Light so superior is that it's made up of mainly strategists instead of super powered characters and it operates as a singular unit by pooling resources (magic, technology, finances)from the different members and uses influence and black mail to it's advantage. It has such influence that it can use another super villain organization as a decoy to carry out it's plan without prying eyes. Also since it's made up of mainly strategists and not super powered fighter types it can't be brought down by fighting and defeating each member one by one like what is common in dealing with battle shonen villain organizations it needs to be infiltrated and brought down from the inside.

I'm hoping in the future there can be a battle shonen villain organization as good as the Light.

Antagonist=/=villain

And it's pretty dumb to say that the World government are the antagonists. That's like saying that the Hunter Association in HxH are the protagonists
