in many Animes, the protagonists carry the weight of the story, but sometimes the secondary characters steal so much attention that we end up wishing that they are the ones who have their own anime. Whether because of his charisma, his background story or simply because his presence on screen is never enough, these ten characters deserve to shine as absolute protagonists.
10. Mikey (Tokyo Revengers)
Charismatic and fearsome leader of the Tokyo Manji Gang, Mikey It has an aura that mixes tenderness and danger. His personal story, his relationships and the weight of his decisions could sustain an anime full of drama, fights and emotional moments.
9. L. Lawliet (Death Note)
The anime’s most beloved eccentric detective is a character who shouts “own series.” A spin-off focused on his previous cases, or even how he became the most brilliant mind in the world, would be pure gold for fans.
8. Ulquiorra Cifer (Bleach)
cold, calculating and with a tragic background that we barely saw, Ulquiorra It has everything to star in a dark and philosophical anime. Exploring his origin and his vision of loneliness and humanity would be fascinating.
7. Zenitsu Agatsuma (Anime: Demon Slayer)
beyond his comic side, Zenitsu He is an incredible swordsman and a character with great development. An anime that follows it in its own missions and that delves into its training and growth would be as emotional as it was explosive.
6. Killua Zoldyck (Hunter x Hunter)
The murderous boy with a noble heart is one of the most beloved characters in anime. A story focused on his adventures outside of Gon would allow us to explore his complicated family and his internal struggle between violence and freedom.
5. Shoto Todoroki (My Hero Academia)
With its family history loaded with drama and a unique power, Todoroki He could star in an anime that combines intense action with emotional exploration. Watching him face challenges without the rest of Class 1-A would be a delight.
4. Toji Fushiguro (Jujutsu Kaisen)
one of the most imposing characters Jujutsu Kaisen, , Toji It has such an intense past that it practically asks for a prequel anime. His life as a mercenary, his battles and his relationship with his son would give for a brutal show.
3. Itachi Uchiha (Anime: Naruto)
A spin-off that relates his life from childhood to his tragic destiny would be a guaranteed success. Itachi He is one of the most complex and beloved characters of Naruto, and his perspective would completely change our vision of the ninja universe.
2. Levi Ackerman (Anime: Attack on Titan)
The most lethal soldier of the Reconnaissance Legion is also one of the most enigmatic. An anime that explores its youth in the underground city and its first missions against the Titans would be a dream come true for many fans.
1. Roy Mustang (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood)
The “Alchemist of the Flame” combines charisma, strategy, and a personal story that would deserve its own plot. A spin-off about his military ascent, his battles and his political struggle within the army would be a work worthy of his name.
These characters are already legend, but imagining them as protagonists opens up a world of possibilities. Sometimes the true heart of an anime is not in its main hero, but in the figures that accompany it in the shadows.
