| Strategists, schemers, con artists, planners, gamblers, puppet masters, characters like them. I'll say Hiruma from Eyeshield 21. He plans everything so quickly and ingeniously while in the middle of games, even though it usually comes down to an all-or-nothing gamble anyways. |

| Lelouch. |
 |
| Joseph Joestar. Joseph w/o time to plan = Batman w/ time to plan |
| Do not underestimate the strategy of Haruhi: |
| Click on this. I dare you. | MAL Fantasy Football League | Currently Watching List RWBY Club. RWBY is anime. Deal with it. |
| Yagami Light. |
 |
| Yang Wenli (LOGH) , Hands Down! |
 |
| Yagami Light (Death Note) Tokuchi Toua (One Outs) |
| Lelouch is gonna have a lot of votes, I think. mine included. |
     |
| Kamina. With a strategy like "kick logic out and just do it anyways!" there's no way you can lose. |
| Harems don't exist in America. If one guy is constantly surrounded by beautiful girls, then he's probably the gay friend. |
| Lelouch is an easy victory for this topic... But this guy is also a great strategist: nightgunner said: Keima Katsuragi (The world god only knows) |
| ib4 Lelo- oh damn... notsureifsrs said: Joseph Joestar. Joseph w/o time to plan = Batman w/ time to plan This sounds about right. Although the topic says "anime" and I can't really remember him being as awesome as in Battle Tendency when Stardust Crusaders rolled around. |
| Welkin Gunther from Valkyria Chronicles. :D |
 |
| Oh right, forgot to include manga in the title, which means I forgot about Liar Game dammit. Fixed that. |

Although the topic says "anime" and I can't really remember him being as awesome as in Battle Tendency when Stardust Crusaders rolled around. He became a total jobber in part 3 and a total joke by part 4. At least when Jotaro got demoted he was still "badass mentor" and not "jobber mentor". Joseph got relegated to a stepping stone in Jotaro figuring things out while Jotaro in 4/6 was still taking action himself. |

notsureifsrs said: He became a total jobber in part 3 and a total joke by part 4. At least when Jotaro got demoted he was still "badass mentor" and not "jobber mentor". Well his personality was quite quirky in part 2 as well, so that didn't change much in part 3. He was just stuck with THE lamest stand ever. And that's saying something in a series where ANYTHING can be totally lethal. As for part 4...well he was what? 80 years old? I thought it was okay not to actually include him in any battles anymore (although how much he had aged in those 10 years was kinda hard to believe). Anyway, back to topic. I'm gonna throw Aizen in this trololol |
| No one mentioned Reinhard yet? Oh, wait, people are too absorved in Code Geass' sucess to remember him. |
| LeLouch Lamperouge, Yagami Light, Uchiha Itachi, Fujiwara Bunta, Xellos. |
grandy_UiD said: Yeah, he got screwed over in stands. His power was basically only useful against vampires and there were only two. Since both had broken stands he had no chance.Well his personality was quite quirky in part 2 as well, so that didn't change much in part 3. He was just stuck with THE lamest stand ever. And that's saying something in a series where ANYTHING can be totally lethal. I'm gonna throw Aizen in this trololol It's also sad he didn't use any hamon powers. If you're gonna bring up Bleach the only character that really "plans" is Mayuri. He's up there in BS tiers along with Aizen and Tsukishima. |
This guy. He had a plan to take Saito away from Louise and make him fall in love with Siesta >:o |
| One Letter: L |
 |
| Yang Wenli has my vote. My favorite character in LoGH |
Oh I forgot one more person: This guy is one amazing gambler! |
| Oberstein from LoGH. He still needs more time to shine in the spotlight imo. |
| Yang Wenli and Oberstein are the all-time best strategists. |
| Griffith, from Berserk Aldo Naris, from Guin Saga Guin, also from Guin Saga Claudia McCunnen, from Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom Beppu Yugo, from Yugo The Negotiator |
 |
 Baka Prince of Level E = Master of calculation (all I can say without spoiling things) |
 |
| Tatsumi Takeshi - from Giant Killing ; liked his way of planning things |
| Akiyama Shinichi and Yokoya from liar game |
| Shikamaru-Naruto Kisuke Urahara-Bleach(my fav chararater from the show) Mayuri--Bleach(one of few other character that i actully like from the show) Usopp-One Piece(if you watch the Luffy vs Usopp fight you'll understand) Askeladd-Vinland Saga(not an anime yet but he's still a genius) |
| "Throw away your logic and kick reason to the curb! Beautifully following the golden road! If there’s a wall, we knock it down! It’s a road built with these hands! The Magma of the Heart’s Final Ignition! Perfect Unification Gurren-Lagann!" |
| And another for Oberstein and Yang. Aramaki from GitS is pretty cool too. |
| Agreed on Yang and Oberstein, and I'll just throw in Reinhard as well. |

Only 2 or 3 people above you have mentioned him, please respect other people's opinions. OT: I wouldn't say Lelouch right away;he wouldn't have gotten to where he was as fast as he did without Geass. Possibly get high up there, but it tremendously sped up his plan. I'd have to say from my favorite shows -Yuji Sakomoto -Makise Kurisu -Sumeragi before they relied on 00 |

Unless you consider Reinhard and Lelouch the same character... |
| Emiya Kiritsugu and Kotomine Kirei from Fate/Zero |
| "You watch too much." "I don't watch enough."  |
| Either Yang Wenli or Reinhard. We're talking about favourite strategists after all. |
| Lelouch and Light :3 |
 |
| Kira? Lelouch? (No offense to anyone in particular) I'll go with Van Hohenheim - FMA: Brotherhood. Those kids have nothing on this guy |
 |
| Satoko from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni ^_^ |
| "If you wear good shoes, they’ll take you to good places." Toudou Shizuka |

mitch3315 said: Lelouch. |
| Yagami Light (Death Note) Nara Shikamaru (Naruto) |
| Obvious choice is obvious: Lelouch 2nd would be Light, 3rd L. Though Van Hohenheim could be a honorable mention, like someone said before me. |
 |
| Scythemaster from Phantom was quite the schemer and puppetmaster (literally) and he did it without any magical shit, fairy, reaper or anything else. |
