Best Villain

Just about every type of villain type got nominated, from the smart calculating types, the crazy insane guys, the guys with believable motivations and so forth. Though as expected, a lot of the top placing villains need a certain level of charisma to carry some of the arcs where they feature heavily.

Honourable Mentions: Yoshikage Kira, Dio Brando, Askeladd, Altair, Kyubey

Dem Jojo antagonists splitting the fanbase!

3rd Place: Squealer(Yakomaru) From the New World

Kaiki is one gloomy looking fella, but when that theme plays, you can usually expect a great scene. As far as villains go, Kaikis just a conman whos put a number of a characters through a great deal of trouble just to make a quick buck. Hes a good talker, doesnt really go for any physical violence and knows when to fold. Though I suspect a major part of his popularity here comes from the fact that as series goes on, he comes off more as a charismatic anti-hero.

His debut appearance in Nisemonogatari was impressive enough with his calm demeanour feeling threatening as he always seemed to be in control of the situation. Koimonogatari however is the arc where most of his popularity comes from with the story being told from his point of view, which just made him more likeable.

He beats out Hisoka, HxHs evil clownface, a villain with a high bodycount and a rather unhealthy interest in our leading protagonist. As one of the stronger characters, hes always a dangerous presence and his actions tend to have pretty dramatic consequences.

Squealer on the other hand is the weakest of the lot, which made his ambitions all the more sinister. He was a minor nuisance that was never properly dealt with until it became too late. Hes the kind of villain where you can see where hes coming from, but can never truly root for due to how far he took his revenge plans.
