Coldness is one of the most mysterious and attractive characteristics of anime. Few characters have it, and those who do have it make people approach them easily. There are many ways for a character to be nice, and they don’t have to fight for the good side either. To be cool, a character needs to be confident, he needs to be himself and he needs to be calm. Characters like Guts from Furious perfectly embodies that kind of stoic coolness.
Coldness can also be bad. Characters like Toji Fushiguro from Jujutsu Kaisen they are cool because they don’t care about rules. They do what they want and are strong and smart enough to get away with it. No matter why or how cool a character is, they are always one of the best reasons to watch a show. Cool characters are also usually strong, as there is no one who can make them freak out.

The Black Swordsman is equally cool and cruel
Guts has one of the most tragic backstories in anime, but He doesn’t let it discourage him. While most other characters would break under the weight of Guts’ past, the Black Swordsman moves forward. He is focused on his quest and only uses the past as fuel to get closer to his ideal future. Guts is one of the most stoic characters out there. Most of his friends and allies can’t tell what he’s thinking by looking at him, because his face doesn’t change unless he’s in battle.
Guts becomes a beast in battle. He once fought 100 enemy soldiers at once in one of the best one-man moments in anime history.. His cruelty only increases his coldness. Guts is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done and will use his Dragon Slayer at all times.

Satoru Gojo
The strongest sorcerer in modern Jujutsu society
As the strongest modern sorcerer in the Jujutsu Society, it’s hard for Satoru Gojo not to be cool. He is the user of two of the strongest techniques in history, the Limitless and Six Eyes techniques, and has mastered them in a way that makes him basically untouchable. Gojo is funny, confident, and completely capable. He makes quick work of some of the strongest characters in Jujutsu Kaisen. When he fights Jogo, he is so confident in his ability to win that he brings Yuji into battle just to watch. The best part is that Gojo has every right to do so.
Jogo was insulted, but could do nothing about it. Gojo dominated his opponent with ease, showing off to his student. Gojo is so cool that he survived his own death when Toji killed him. Instead of dying like a normal, uncool person, Gojo discovered the reverse curse technique, revived himself, and got revenge on another incredibly cool character.

Roronoa Zoro
One of the Straw Hat Swordsmen
Roronoa Zoro never panics. When most other characters would have a complete meltdown, he might consider taking a nap. He doesn’t care much other than becoming the strongest swordsman there is, which is an incredibly cool endeavor. He is also as loyal as possible to his fellow Straw Hat pirates. Zoro is famous for his inability to navigate, but he doesn’t care. He will go wherever he goes and figure it out from there. His relaxed and confident attitude makes him the coolest character in One piece from afar.
One of the coolest moments in the anime happens when Zoro decides to take damage from Luffy. When Warlord Kuma goes to get Zoro’s captain, Zoro intervenes. Kuma sees his bravery and decides to spare Luffy if Zoro suffers the damage that was intended for Luffy. Zoro agrees and takes a near-lethal number of blows. After the Straw Hats revive, Sanji finds Zoro in a bloody mess. When Sanji asks Zoro what happened, Zoro simply replies that nothing happened.

Yami Sukehiro
Black Bulls captain never panics
Yami Sukehiro is strangely calm. He doesn’t care about most problems and will only get angry when someone threatens his Black Bulls. He is one of the strongest characters Black Clover and he behaves as if he knew it. Yami doesn’t allow anyone to answer to him or his team. He is the first to enter the battle and would never ask his Black Bulls to do something that he has not done himself. He is a great leader, a powerful wizard, and the first person in Black Clover use a katana in battle. It doesn’t get any cooler than that.
Yami is so cool that he makes other characters look cool. When Asta was exhausted fighting the powerful villain Dante Zogratis, Yami’s words of inspiration lit a fire under the Anti-Magic user and brought him back. Their combined efforts were enough to take down Dante, and if not for Zenon’s sudden appearance, they would have won.

Itachi Uchiha
Itachi is cool even after death
Itachi Uchiha has one of the naruto best and saddest backstories. He was tasked by his village to kill his entire clan. Although he spared Sasuke, he was not able to save anyone else. He had to become the ultimate villain to save Konoha and his little brother. Itachi’s self-sacrifice is one of the darkest versions of coldness in anime. He committed horrible acts thinking someone needed to do it. Rather than let Shisui or another member of the Uchiha wipe out his people, Itachi took responsibility for carrying out the massacre.
Itachi then lets Sasuke spend his life hating his older brother. He understands that it’s the easiest way for Sasuke to move on. He also fights Sasuke in battle, dying to his younger brother so he can take his eyes off Itachi and obtain the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan.

Jotaro Kujo
Jotaro doesn’t really care
Jotaro Kujo doesn’t care about anything, not even the fact that he’s one of the strongest characters in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. He is 6 feet tall, incredibly handsome, and more muscular than most bodybuilders. He always maintains an aloof attitude, but becomes a loyal man to his friends. He has all the characteristics of a nice person, and they suit Jotaro well. He’s the coolest character in every iteration of JoJo he is in.
Jotaro begins the third part of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure as a delinquent. He beats up four people at once and puts himself in prison for it, another ridiculously cool feat. When he is in prison, he proves that he is “possessed” by stealing a guard’s gun and shooting himself in the head. Your position, the stupendously cool Star Platinumthen catches the bullet out of the air, forcing Jotaro to live to see another day. Jotaro is undeniably cool in Stardust Crusadersand has even more time to shine Diamond is unbreakable and Stone Oceanwhere it becomes clear that he only gets cooler with age.

Future Trunks
Future Trunks killed Mecha Frieza like nothing
Future Trunks’ arrival in the current timeline was several cool events at once. Frieza had just arrived on Earth with revenge on his mind. He would kill the Z Fighters and surprise Goku with his survival, carrying out his revenge against the Super Saiyan. However, Future Trunks had other plans, appearing out of nowhere to quickly dispatch Frieza’s men. Frieza could barely resist when he saw Future Trunks’ golden hair.
Future Trunks is one of few characters in Dragon ball use a sword, and it makes you look exceptionally cool. He attacked Mecha Frieza, using his Burning Attack to put the galactic tyrant in position for Future Trunks’ devastating Shining Sword Attack. Future Trunks cut Frieza into a dozen pieces before blasting him with an energy attack. The result is one of Dragon Ball most shocking moments, as it permanently ended the series’ biggest villain to date, while also creating a ridiculously cool new hero.

Levi Ackermann
Humanity’s greatest soldier
If there are any characters that deserve their own side story in Attack on Titan, It’s Levi Ackerman. He is humanity’s strongest soldier and it’s easy to see why. Levi is a decisive factor in every battle he takes part in. He is a master at killing Titans and their enemies, and is more than willing to do both on several occasions. When his former father figure, Kenny Ackerman, comes after him, Levi goes on a defensive killing spree that ends up being one of the best one-man moments in anime.
When Erwin Smith and the rest of the Survey Corps sacrifice their lives for Levi, he makes it worth it. He attacks the Beast Titan and quickly knocks him down. Levi’s mysterious aura, lethal intent, and general devious behavior makes him one of the coolest characters in the anime.

Toji Fushiguro
Your heavenly restriction is as cool as it gets
In terms of time in the story, Toji Fushiguro was a cliffhanger in Jujutsu Kaisen. In terms of impact, however, there aren’t many characters greater than the ancient Zenin. He was only on the series for a few chapters and episodes and made an impact every time he was around. He doesn’t care about anything other than being free from the Zenin Clan and being the best bounty hunter/assassin he can be. With his mastery of his Heavenly Restraint, he is one of the strongest characters in Jujutsu Kaisen also.
Toji was resurrected later in the series and was a threat once again. He flies across the battlefield faster than most Sorcerers who use his Jujutsu and hits harder than them as well. If it weren’t for Gojo’s enlightenment and cursed reverse technique, Toji would still be around causing trouble.

Spike Spiegel
The epitome of a cool character in anime
Spike Spiegel is the epitome of a cool anime character. It hasn’t existed for over 20 years, but he’s still the first person people think of when they imagine a cool anime character. He is a master of martial arts, more than experienced with pistols, and always has a knife nearby. He’s the bad boy of cool charactersand he won’t be apologizing anytime soon. Spike is also an expert pilot in his Swordfish II, his handy ship equipped with machine guns, missile launchers and even a plasma cannon.
Cowboy Bebop’s incredible art direction and style contribute to Spike’s coolness. He always looks weightless on screen, floating like a butterfly and stinging like a bee. Spike has a cynical sense of humor and is much closer to an antihero than a traditional hero, but that only makes it cooler. Each of his character’s traits and flaws only adds to his mystique, making him the coolest character in the anime.
