It depends if you count the character as having all powers given to him through outside means. If so, I'd say Light from Death Note.

Besides being brilliant, he can kill anyone with a name and a face, and thus basically anyone on the list.

By the way, Vash and Alucard aren't human... Vash is a "plant" and Alucard is a vampire. But whatever. What a silly, pointless topic.

The Show doesn't do into to much detail about how the giant robots work however the robots are independantly powererd, on to of that the GL can use this giant drill that can pierce anything, even and entire demension, I'm sorry to telly you but all the EVA-1 has are some guns, GL has a giant drill, and if you let me bring lord kamina back to life it has the most bad-ass pilot ever.
Then we have reached the unanswerable question. What happens when the unstoppable force meets the unmoveable object? I guess the fight comes down to which anime universe the fight is in, and it would go to home team.

The reason the drill attack would fail in the Evangelion universe is because the drill apparently attacks physical objects, while an AT field is a spiritual or mental force, theoreticlly only breakable by another AT field. This is stated clearly in the End of Evangelion movie. The Instrumentally project, which the series is based around, attempts to merge all human souls into the EVA-01 unit. The reason is because the AT field would keep it alive even after the universe itself has died, keeping humans alive in the process.

OK, so winner does to defensive advantage.

Ah but simons is the drill that will pierce the heavens! you see I forgot about the power supply. you see it's powered by something called "spiral power" which is essentially the human spirit. the more determined the person the stronger the drill is. and it's powered by your spirit, if you have enough spiral power it literally comes out of the drill, that sounds like a spiritual weapon to me, I'm pretty sure that means it could pierce an AT field, just like how it pierced an entire dimension.

Then it depends on who is stronger emotionally. Yui Ikari, or Simons. This changes the entire fight. Strange how it went from mechs to humans. Although I don't think character emotional strangth is something that can really be debated.

Again, the actual question was pertaining to the strongest anime "character", not human, so both of those examples are legitimate.

Are you guys really arguing about the canon of Evangelion? Seriously, that overrated piece of crap doesn't even deserve to be mentioned. Plus, they could easily be defeated by a large list of other anime characters, even with their mechs.

No, I planned on creating an account anyway but decided to post as well. Nice moron...

Um yes you can debate emotional strength especially in this case. All of the EVA pilots were emotional unstable and had father issues where as Simon was the leader of the world, seems like one might be more stable than the other.

This poll is hideously limited, as evinced by the giant percentage of "other" votes. As well, "best" is an ill-defined and entirely subjective adjective, so I'm surprised there's argument at all.

Besides, the answer is Keitaro Urashima. Dude's invincible.

I would definitely go with Alucard however everyone else has so in the interest of a having a variety of characters I would have to go with Lelouche off Code Geass because... well it doesn't need explaining.

The strength of an EVA is based on the human soul locked inside it. In this case, it is Yui Ikari, Shinji's mother. The pilots are not even vital. They are just a scapegoat. EVA units can act independently without power, and no connection to anyone inside. The fight is with Yui, not Shinji.

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

No seriously, aside from the fact that who's the "best" anime character is arbitrary and no less than %100 subjective, you decided to make a poll out of it? And then only have three shonen character's as your only named choices?

If you mean in an academic sense as in how well they were written, well, that would years of in depth research and analyze to come up with even vague and arguable conclusions. Any ideas put forth in forum posts will be flippant or fanboy-ism.

I'm going to assume that's from the movie because if not I severely misunderstood the show, more so than I already thought. I'll trust you on that though, and in that case I can't tell you how emotionally stable Yui is, they don't talk about he in great detail in the show.
