Mine's Askeladd (Vinland Saga)

The Narrator from Kokoro (Aoi Bungaku) and Johan Liebert (Monster) are close contenders.

- Johan Liebert (Monster)
- Motoko "Major" Kusanagi (GitS 1995)
- Lain Iwakura (Serial Experiments Lain)
- any/all Evangelion character(s)

Can't decide who's #1 from the top 3.

Not the only one, but Johan Liebert is one of the most complex characters I've ever seen so far.

Light Yagami from Death Note is a complex character.

I dont think there is any character similar to his level

Interestingly, Shinji is definitely one of my top favourite characters ( finished Evangelion around a month ago) but I don't think he's a contender for most complex MCs out there

Take me to your Xbox to play Fortnite today
You can take me to Moisty Mire, but not Loot Lake
I really love to Chug Jug with you
We can be pro Fortnite gamers

- Mr. Jager probably





Jokes aside, I think Eren is by far, head and shoulders, dong and balls, toe and nail above the rest. Nothing comes in site.



Been breaking down just a portion of him for about a year for a video, there have been so many things that didn't make sense to me before that now are completely clear in my mind. Originally, what didn't make sense was caused by fundamental misunderstandings about his character that I inherited from the crowd around me. But after looking at it for what it actually is, Eren is a fucking achievement in terms of the complexity a character can have.
And I probably only know about 10 % of everything he has to offer.



He Takes SO many things from SO many sources, each layering on top of one another. Casshern, Joker, Guts, Griffith, Kaiji, Sumika, Yuuko, Suzaku, Lelouch, From Naruto, From Bleach etc. etc.

I know I didn't say anything but that's cuz I cannot do him any justice in a simple reply. I need hours and hours worth of time to explain myself, and exponentially more to prepare.

Wait I don't understand, genuinely asking how does his intelligence makes him a very complex Character . Like looking far into things and making very good plans are surface Level complexities so I would definitely like to understand your perspective

No I dont think so. Intelligence is far more important than strength or any other aspect.

From who I know up to now it's Junko Enoshima from Danganronpa. I've read most of things that she featured in, but I still don't really know why she did some of the things she did, even...

I think that Nagito easily take the cake as the most complex Danganronpa character. I still remember the roller coaster of guessing his mean in SDR2.

Tokuchi, Toua from One Outs!

Since his character is intentionally mysterious we as the audience are unclear of his true motive or train of thought throughout the entire series. We are basically in the same state as his team members or the antagonists (his club president) and his confidentiality gives us the sense of open interpretation until it's all revealed in the end (of each situation).
