One Piece has a whole host of impressive characters, each with their own unique characteristics and specialties. Deciding who the best is becomes a little more difficult as not all characters have fought each other. But when it comes to villains in One Piece, there is no doubt as to who is the best.
Kaido, one of the former Emperors of the Sea in One Piece, has an immense amount of fame and repute. He has long been regarded as one of the most powerful pirates to ever exist. It is no joke that he was dubbed the “Strongest Creature,” he couldn’t die even when he tried to, and his feats in battle were nothing short of legendary.
Kaido is an exceptionally strong being in the One Piece world, but can he stand his ground among the strongest villains in anime? Let us delve in and find out.
Kaido is the ‘Strongest Creature’ for a reason
There re many anime with worlds having power levels that scale ridiculously high. Be it One Punch Man, Naruto, Bleach, or even the Dragon Ball series. When compared to the villains in these anime, there is no doubt that Kaido will fall short in the power levels.
It would be rather unfair to measure Kaido against the yardstick of different anime, but what we can gauge is their mentality, demeanor, and presence. Kaido’s personality is a unique one; he is an honorable man looking for a good fight at all times.
Unlike many villains who rely on things like strategy, deception, or their unique abilities, Kaido’s dominance comes from sheer physical might, confidence, and endurance. He is the embodiment of the phrase ‘dragon among men.’
Oda might have given him the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit that grants him a dragon form for this very nature. It is not hard to dislike Kaido, but each of his opponents respects him for his strength.
Kaido is a unique villain who deserves the respect of all
With his strength that makes him an unstoppable force of nature, he is not just impenetrable but also has the strength to fight back and pummel his opponents.
What truly sets Kaido apart is his dedication and willingness to keep fighting. Most villains are scared for their lives and try to escape when they are in dire straits.
But not Kaido, despite taking some of the most devastating blows in One Piece (he endured Luffy’s strongest attacks), he continued to fight without stepping back.
He faces multiple powerful opponents together without breaking a sweat, including opponents with the ability to use Advanced Conqueror’s Haki strikes. Even Zoro was only able to scratch Kaido after giving it his all.
His overwhelming presence and honorable way of fighting in a way that portrays charm and confidence is a unique quality. It could have been different in other anime worlds, but as far as it comes to his mentality, Kaido is at the forefront among villains in anime.
One Piece is available to watch on Crunchyroll.
