Spoilers, spoilers, and more spoilers so read at your own risk

There's nothing more shocking than a surprise plot twist that kills off a fan-favorite character. Charapedia asked 10,000 fans which anime death had the biggest impact. It shouldn't surprise you that this list is full of spoilers for over 20 anime series, so keep that in mind before reading any further! It's interesting to note that men and women were pretty divided on their choices outside of the top four, with some characters' votes relying heavily on one demographic over the other.

There aren't too many deaths in One Piece, but when it does happen, it means something. I would be surprised if Number one was something else.


Also, how are there DBZ characters on this list. Dragon Balls, wish character back. Done. Their impact was just erased.
And Neji made this list higher than Jiraiya? How?

Nice to list Nagisa on there, even if it's at the bottom. Mami in third place, kudos to that (biggest "Holy Shit!" moment in anime, easily). No Spike Spiegel, though? :(

School Days made the list, too? XD

I'll be honest with you... i didn't see that coming at all and it happens in the cruelest possible way, i was like "no wonder they told me to watch it at least until episode 3, everything changed after that even the ending song LOL"

Pardon my language.... but Wtf? Itou Makoto????????? Didn't he deserve to die?? That bas**** deserved to die imo...
EDIT: They were probably sorry for Kotonoha because of how his death affected her...I was too. But he really did deserve to die >.<

Only agree on Jman and Light but not L? Seriously, we pretty much knew it was coming and I hate to say it but his had more impact.

As for the rest, I don't know them.
