this is ashley with watch mojo and today
we're counting down our picks for the
top 10 times anime villains
should have won as its strength
increases to infinity
for this list we'll be going over the
occasions where anime antagonists
were in situations where they should
easily have achieved victory but were
thwarted by a cheap or convenient action
by the hero
or another party if there's a villainous
near victory you think should have won a
spot on our list
tell us about it in those comments and
as always you can catch me on twitter
ashjaebow so head over there give me a
follow
let me know which anime list you want to
see next
number 10 a sudden revival bleach ukura
is the seemingly coldest among the
espada
whose overwhelming power proves too much
for soul society's strawberry to handle
in fact ukira stray up kills him by
blasting a hole
straight through his chest hollow style
but what should have been a complete
victory is suddenly reversed
orihime's pleading not only triggers a
revival
but changes him into a admittedly
awesome new hollow form
that proceeds to wreck ukira
sure ichigo has hollow powers but they
don't include
revival from death what's weird is that
orihime's powers probably do
but she doesn't use them power of
friendship much
[Music]
number nine anytime saitama shows up one
punch man
the hero association has got major
players to its name
however that doesn't mean they don't
struggle against the villains of this
world
giants aliens in every manner of mutant
or creature you can think of very few
heroes can defeat monsters with ease
and only one of them is a guarantee
saitama the walking deus
ex machina
whenever he arrives he ends the careers
and or
lives of any villain or monster he
encounters
with only a single punch
with rare exception if saitama were not
around the bad guys would win 99
of the time must suck to be a wannabe
villain
number eight oberon versus kirito sword
online
sao is no stranger to villains losing
because of op
protagonist powers but our pick goes to
the fairy king
the despicable creep has asana chained
up and assaults her
threatening to do the same in the real
world he also has kirito defeated and
tortured
since he can use his admin privileges to
make him feel
pain even in the game world just as
kirito loses hope
kaiaba contacts kirito to give him admin
privileges
allowing him to take away oberon's
control
there was zero hints that any of this
was possible and we're pretty sure that
kayaba died last time we checked
but kirito wins anyway
number 7 joestar look jojo's bizarre
adventure
the joe star family may have a
propensity for attracting supernatural
threats but they always seem to have an
ace in the hall for every occasion
while joseph battles cars atop an active
volcano
the villain proves basically unstoppable
evolving to resist all weaknesses
by chance joseph blocks an attack using
the red stone
which amplifies the ripple energy
causing an eruption
that sends him and cars hiddling into
the air
then jojo's severed arm gets launched
into kaz's neck
just as he's about to fly away
and finally while cars is distracted
he's struck by debris
which helps launch him into space so
many incredibly convenient things happen
in a row
to defeat him but then again it's joseph
number six ancestor possession yuyu
hakusho
ironic one of yusuke's most challenging
opponents would be his spirit detective
predecessor
sensuae proves himself use case superior
in combat
even killing him at one point
[Laughter]
[Music]
granted death isn't always permanent in
eu hakusho
but things don't look to be going that
well for yusuke even after he's revived
until that is the demon blood is awoken
inside him
he's possessed by his ancestor ryzen
i've waited a long
time for this
[Music]
who proceeds to thrash sensway
again regains control but not before
sensuae has bitten the dust
we did get an awesome beatdown of it
even if it came out of nowhere
number five whis rewinds time dragon
ball z
resurrection f frieza's return was all
we could have hoped for
with a major grudge against the saiyans
the space tyrant trains himself to reach
a new level of strength
[Music]
his power it's amazing what frieza has a
new form
although proving formidable goku and
vegeta in their super saiyan blue forms
still leave him bested with nothing left
to lose frieza blows up earth
and takes everyone with him you can all
go to hell without me
while that should have been game over
whis is able to rewind time by three
minutes
to allow goku to make up for his earlier
hesitation
temporal do-over you actually paid
attention for once
while it's not the first time whis uses
this power it does feel
a little cheap like a get out of
armageddon free card
number four spontaneous combustion
raroni kenshin
the epic conflict between homura kenshin
and shishio makoto
is often considered the series best
fight
although its conclusion is a little
convenient shishio and kenshin
are pushed to their very limits during
the fight quite literally in the
former's case
due to his severe burns shishio's body
overheats
more easily and eventually he bursts
into flames
sure it's an anime but we're pretty sure
that's not how having burns works
it's almost like someone rewrote the
laws of physics in order for kenshin
not to have to kill his opponent number
three
higher than infinity yugioh dual
monsters
the last minute heart of the card
solution is a dime a dozen across the
franchise
but that's more of a story explanation
for why the protagonist
always wins for this moment we're
tackling the subversion of something
immutable
math yugi slash yami is caught in a
hopeless situation
due to seasonal villain darts having a
monster with
infinite attack power they're too weak
are you sure setting aside the fact that
infinity isn't a number
and violates the mechanics of the game
already
yummy solution is even more broken now
absorb the ability of my attack guidance
barrier
through manipulation of his monster
card's abilities and logic
he creates an attack with a value
greater than infinity
as its strength increases to infinity to
sum up his strat it's basically
oh yeah well my attack is infinity plus
one
number two laxus's magic fail fairy tale
there are a ton of examples of fairy
tale heroes pulling a win out their
butts
but instead of a last minute power-up
for the good guy this one relies on the
villain's
magic falling apart after going on a
rampage through fiore
turning the guild members to stone laxus
engages in a duel with natsu and gajil
eventually laxus uses the spell fairy
lore which targets all his enemies
the guild and all the townsfolk
with no way to stop it everyone should
have either died or been severely
injured
except it doesn't do any damage because
deep down
lexus didn't see any of them as his
enemies
so all that attempted murder was just
for funsies

plot
naruto shipperden marura uchiha is the
ultimate big bad
built up for hundreds of episodes the
guy cleans house
when he finally shows up soloing an army
the five cargae
and even a combined assault by naruto
and sasuke
the guy is overpowered as heck and just
when he's achieved his ambition
to put almost everyone in the world into
endless slumber
he gets stabbed in the back by black
zetsu
[Music]
you know the servant he used to
manipulate things behind the scenes with
turns out black zetsu was working for
another villain all along
one who is stronger yet more quickly
defeated
and who had very little foreshadowing
not even the sharingan could have seen
that coming
