The Strongest "Master" Characters in Anime History Ranking

Machine-translated from Traditional Chinese

There are many impressive "master" characters in anime. Who do you think is the strongest and most charismatic?

My ranking:
1. Jiraiya (Naruto) — funny yet profound
2. Kyoujurou Rengoku (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) — not much screen time but a lasting impact
3. Beerus (Dragon Ball Super) — a God of Destruction as a master is too fun
4. All Might (My Hero Academia) — "You can become a hero"
5. Gintoki (Gintama) — the least master-like master

What's your ranking of master characters?

The writing of a "mentor" character is very particular. A good mentor should be a presence that drives the protagonist's growth without stealing their spotlight.

Addition: Rayleigh (ONE PIECE)! The master during the two-year training, although he doesn't appear often, he carries a lot of weight.

Biscuit from "Hunter x Hunter"! The trope of a master who looks cute but has terrifying strength is so interesting.

The best master in SRW is Doctor Saotome from Getter! A bit crazy, but super hot-blooded.

Haikyu!!'s Coach Ukai! His coaching style is very realistic but very effective. This kind of down-to-earth master is even more respectable.

Gintoki is hilarious as a master! 😂 But Shinpachi and Kagura have really grown a lot by his side. This kind of "master who doesn't act like a master" is the most charming.

Frieren is, to some extent, also a 'teacher' character—she taught Fern a lot about humans.

All Might's line 'You can become a hero' still gives me goosebumps to this day. A teacher's words can change a life.

As I've gotten older, I've actually come to better understand the feelings of the mentor characters. Jiraiya's sacrifice used to just make me sad, but now, it fills me with admiration.

Jiraiya is definitely number one! His influence on Naruto is so profound. I couldn't stop crying during that farewell battle.
