Best Keep That Temper in Check
Everyone gets angry, but nowhere near the level of these anime characters. Whether they’re being possessed by a supernatural force or have just been pushing to the edge of sanity, you do not want to be in the nearby vicinity when these guys unleash their rage!
5: Cemetery Battle
âGintamaâ (2006-)
Despite being famed for his sword skills as well as being a demon on the battlefield, Gintoki Sakada is mostly known for acting like a complete doofus, one who always ends up failing at even the simplest of odd jobs. Not in this case. After Otose ends up wounded via the blade of her rival Deva and former friend Jirochou, Gin goes full-on White Demon. Armed with nothing more than his trusty wooden sword, he easily crushes nearly every gravestone in sight while trying to put Jirochou six foot under.
4: Naruto Lets The Fox Out Of The Bag
âNaruto Shippudenâ (2007-17)
Weâll admit it was an odd time for Hinata to find the courage to confess her love to her ninja heartthrob, but it at least it ended up giving us this epic scene. While trying to defend Naruto from Painâs assault, the Hyuga heiress finds herself grievously wounded. The knuckle-headed ninja doesnât take too kindly to this, once again losing control to the Demon Fox inside of him. Now completely taken over by his rage that, Naurto instantly goes all the way to six tails. Pain may have his own fair share of internal baggage, but heâs got nothing on a teen Jinchuruki who just watched his future wife get stabbed!
3: Guts Cuts Off His Own Arm
âBerserkâ (1997-98)
We had to get a little creative with this one, seeing how bloody rampages are kind of Gutsâ bread and butter. The Black Swordsman may have angrily sliced his way through plenty of demons and enemy soldiers in his times, but in terms of sheer desperation, nothing tops the time where he was willing to mutilate his own arm to escape the jaws of an apostle. Of course, given how Casca was being violated by Griffith at the time, you can see why he would be willing to go so far. Itâs a hellish sight to behold, the only thing more unnerving being the savage expression spread across Gutsâ face. Now thatâs rage.
2: Gon vs Pitou
âHunter x Hunterâ (2011-14)
You wouldnât have thought a good kid like Gon would have had a dark side. Pitou probably thought so to, at least until he decided to taunt him with the corpse of his deceased friend. After discovering that his buddy Kite was gone for good, Gon gives into his hatred and unleashes all of his latent Nen, transforming into an older version of himself, equipped with enough strength to match the King of the Chimera Ants. Fuelled by the desire to seek vengeance on the wicked kitty, the young Hunter proceeds to smash Pitouâs face to bloody chunks, to the point where the Royal Guard is left essentially headless. Ouch.
1: Eva 01 the Beast
âNeon Genesis Evangelionâ (1995-96)
The good news, Shinji got back into the robot. The bad news? Itâs gone totally feral and developed quite a taste for Angel flesh. When one of the alien invaders nearly overpowers them, Shinjiâs pleads for his Eva Unit to get a second windâ¦something that seems to strike a chord with the sentient mecha, leading it to go berserk and slaughtering the Angel. All before chowing down. All the NERV agents can do is hopelessly look on as Unit 01 goes primal.
