| Guys and gals, I believe I can settle this debate once and for all: |
| There is absolutely no reason why I should accept "turn your brain off" as a valid excuse to defend a poor show. ~ blatant ad: https://myanimelist.net/blog/Crusader_8 I spend the time to write it, so please read it lol |
But his father (I mean Shinichi Kudo's father) is way smarter. |
I couldn’t agree more............... |
| My favorite genuinely smart character is captain Kiichi Gotou from Patlabor. Char Aznable comes next. |
| Makishima Shogo from Psycho-Pass and Light Yagami from Death Note. |
| Not anime but https://myanimelist.net/character/3568/Yotsuba_Koiwai |
| Obviously the smartest character in all of anime is Lelouch vi Britannia . |
| Hmm i'd say Edward Elric is pretty smart. |
fancyjasper said: Hmm i'd say Edward Elric is pretty smart. But not "Roy Mustang" kind of smart. |
| If I had to choose one... Probably, Detective L Lawliet. That guy was always a heel in front or behind Kira. Most detectives in anime are pretty smart. Those are my favorite characters! |

| I can't think of any specific examples, but any character who wears those dumb swirly glasses is automatically a genius. |

| Glenn Radars from Rokudenashi Majutsu Koushi to Akashic Records |
| The ultimate sleuth guy from Bungo Stray Dogs. |
 |
| How about that one character from the most recent Hero Academia season? |
 |
| All those women in hentai who allow themselves to be blackmailed over petty stuff instead of notifying the authorities. |

| Washu from Tenchi Muyo, the greatest scientist and genius in the universe. She's also really cute! |

Yes he is? Master tactician and amazing at chess |

TheDarknessFlame said: Who do think delvers the smartest anime chiropractor title? I don't even know what delvers means, let alone who it might apply to. Can't say I've ever seen a chiropractor in anime, so if they're the only one, they'd be the "smartest" by default. |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| Propably Lelouch, L or Izaya Orihara |
 |
| -Char Aznable -Black Jack -Yang Wenli -Griffith -Conan Edogawa -Ruri Hoshino -Inspector Lunge Max Genius |

| I find it richly ironic that the candidates for smartest anime characters are characters whose intellect are written/established in the laziest, most un-intelligent way possible: the Gambit Roulette trope. The Gambit Roulette: A convoluted plan that relies on events completely within the realm of chance, yet goes off without a hitch. If your first reaction to seeing The Plan unfold is "There is no way that you could have planned that would happen!", then it's a Gambit Roulette. |

| Kurokami Medaka of Medaka Box has my vote. |
| Id go with joseph.He outsmarts pillar men with a iq of 200 |
 -Just roki roll!!!https://myanimelist.net/profile/Wimp3452 If you click on that you will die |
| I would say L from death note is a smart cunning guy. |
| It's impossible to choose the smartest of them all, because every anime has it's own universe so we can't compare a flying mermaid horse to a galactic japanese dragon by making them sing in french. Of course, I'm not saying there isn't one. It'd just be a looooooong discussion. |
| Generally scientists and doctors sometimes even main characters like L from Death Note |
| I see no mention of Kiyotaka Ayanokouji (Classroom of Elites) |
 |
| Monkey D. Luffy Of course...... haha |
| Oreki Houtarou. Well, he is not the smartest. He makes some mistakes in some cases. But he always solve the problem |
| So Light is a dumbass for a lot of reasons. He doesn't even deserve to be called smart. Lelouch has plothax. Tokuchi has plothax. Blank have plothax and dumb asspulls. Now that it's out of the way, my list goes like this 1 Makise Kurisu (Steins;Gate) 2 Cibo (BLAME!) 3 Desty Nova (Gunnm / Battle Angel Alita) 4 Meruem (Hunter X Hunter) 5 Shiho Miyano (Detective Conan) 6 Sophia Theodores (Eden: It's An Endless World) 7 Yang Wen-Li (Legend Of The Galactic Heroes) 8 Paul Von Oberstein (Legend Of The Galactic Heroes) 9 Judge Holden (Blood Meridian) it's a novel but I don't give a fuck 10 Johan Liebert (Monster) 11 Friend (20th Century Boys) 12 Urumi Kanzaki (Great Teacher Onizuka) 13 Akagi Shigeru (Akagi) 14 Ash Lynx (Banana Fish) 15 Ging Freecs (Hunter X Hunter) 16 Pariston Hill (Hunter X Hunter) 17 Shinichi Kudo (Detective Conan) 18 Blackjack (Blackjack) 19 Reinhard Von Lohengramm (Legend Of The Galactic Heroes) 20 L Lawliet (Death Note) |
| Conan Edogawa from Detective Conan and Ranpo Edogawa from Bungou Stray Dogs. |
