Lol, Reigen made it.
I'd also pick Jiraiya and Naruto as 1. It's still my fav master student thingy, they were more like friends than anything.

 

[ChicagoJhawk]

Yea makes sense for number

 

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

"So fast" I mean true, but it has been like 2-3 years technically.

Izumi Curtis! Very surprised to see her here but shouldn't be, true hardened anime badass.

Love that Guy and Lee are up there. Shame that Rin and his brother aren't up here from Blue Exorcist.
