00:00Nothing hits harder than when a character walks on screen and immediately starts flexing like they
00:23own the place. No warm-up, no build-up, just straight-up I'm-him energy from the first second.
00:29It's the kind of aura that makes you sit up and go, oh, this guy's built different. These are the moments where anime said, forget subtlety, we're starting at max flex. Alright, let's begin.
00:59Shinjiro Watanabe's Lazarus drops Axel Gilberto like a mic from the heavens and his straight-up badass re-Overlord. This dude's intro, he's a smirking escape artist with an 188 year sentence from his hobby of jailbreaking like it's a side quest.
01:29Picture this, cops and operatives swarming, the axles flipping through the chaos like a parkour god, death-defying leaps, outwitting traps with zero sweat.
01:37It's that cowboy bebop vibe reborn. Effortless style, high-stakes thrills, making you go, this guy's untouchable. Total aura farm from frame one.
01:59Next up, we've got Hideyoshi's ridiculous flex in Sengoku.
02:28Now, this is the man who doesn't carry any weapons. What he depends on is his brute strength.
02:35Imagine being able to park the sky because you're just flexing your arm. Yeah, Hideyoshi is that kind of beast.
02:40And the way he denied all those arrows was straight-up insane. Like, nope, return to sender.
02:45You instantly realize you're not watching an ordinary fighter. You're looking at a walking, natural disaster.
02:51Hideyoshi doesn't even need to say much. The way he carries himself is enough to tell anyone that he's the one who dominates, and no one's gonna get away from that.
02:58So picture this. You're binging your favorite anime, and suddenly you wonder, what if you could build your own team of heroes and villains to absolutely wreck everyone else?
03:07Well, that's literally what you can do in Marvel's Strike Force, the sponsors of this video.
03:11It's a free squad RPG where Iron Man, Wolverine, Venom, and even Apocalypse team up to kick Cosmic butt.
03:18And this Halloween, it's time to raise the dead.
03:21The Undying team is back, featuring the glorious disaster that is Zombie Iron Man, who you can unlock for free using the promo code Halloween.
03:29This guy's a beast in Alliance Wars, so don't miss out on recruiting him before he crawls back to the grave.
03:34You can build squads, crush raids, and flex your ultimate Marvel lineup across multiple modes like Campaign, Arena, and Cosmic Crucible.
03:42So, yeah, don't just watch heroes save the world, command them yourself.

04:42Lord of the Stranger and Man.
04:44This guy just storms in, dropping bodies with his red cloak flowing, and jewel-wielding that Chinese Miao Dao like it's an extension of his body.
04:51Within seconds of showing up, he turns a whole ambush into a massacre, cutting through bandits like they were made of jelly.
04:57The moment Luolang shows up, he looks clean, calculated, and absolutely dangerous.
05:02He toys with his enemies, harrying arrows mid-swing, using a poor man's body as a meat shield, and carving them down with surgical precision.
05:09The next thing is to kill the
05:38Kishibe's first proper entrance in Chainsaw Man is peak
06:03Don't mess with the old guy energy
06:05At first glance, he's this grizzled, half-drung devil hunter who looks like retirement should have claimed him years ago
06:11But then he moves, and suddenly every flashy rookie in the room realizes they're children playing at war
06:16His flex, while absolutely dismantling Denji and power in training over and over again like it's just Tuesday cardio
06:23No hesitation, no wasted breath, just brutal efficiency from a man who's seen more nightmares than the kids could imagine
06:29Kishibe is so badass that he's calm, tired and almost bored while casually proving he's the strongest human in the game
06:36That first impression tells you everything
06:38In a world of devils, fear the devil hunter who never dies
06:41Gengkyou
06:52You know the guy's already flexing when you have to revive him,
07:22just because he's the strongest primate on planet Earth.
07:25That's right, up next is Tsukasa.
07:27When Senku and Taiju revive him, he's like, cool, finally some muscle to help against lions.
07:31And then Tsukasa casually walks up to a full-grown lion and one-punches it into oblivion,
07:37like he's auditioning for One Punch Man.
07:39That's not survival instinct, that's raw dominance flexing from the second one.
07:43Not to forget the man who was just revived after 3,700 years.
07:46He looks calm, almost gentle, but his fists alone prove he's basically a prehistoric cheat code.
07:52His very first scene tells you brains may guide you, but Braun can rule.
08:22Let's slide into one of the cleanest anime introductions of all time, Escanor's debut in Seven Deadly Sins.
08:44At first you think, he's just this timid, soft-spoken bartender serving drinks.
08:48Then his body starts swelling, his voice drops, and suddenly the man is radiating pure intimidation like he's the sun itself.
08:55He picks up Ritter, a battleaxe Garland couldn't even lift with both hands, and swings it around like it's a twig.
09:00Then he looks Garland dead in the eye, declares himself the one who stands at the pinnacle of all races,
09:06and doesn't turn to stone under the commandment of truth.
09:08Because he wasn't lying, you know.
09:10Escanor's very presence turned one of the Ten Commandments into a panicking mess, and he didn't even break a s-
09:15Levi's first proper entrance in Attack on Titan is the definition of don't judge by size.
09:20Here's this short, sharp-eyed guy who looks more like he's about to scold you for dirty boots than take on a titan.
09:26But then the blades come out, and suddenly the so-called humanity's strongest soldier is painting the battlefield red.
09:32Levi doesn't just rip the titans, he styles on them.
09:35His introduction flex is slicing through a titan with acrobatic spins so clean it looks choreographed,
09:41landing without a single drop of blood on his uniform.
09:43While others are barely surviving, Levi turns Carnage into an art,
09:47and with that deadpan expression, it feels like he's more annoyed than impressed.
09:51His debut doesn't just prove his strength, it tells you flat out,
09:54this man is humanity's ace.
10:05Of course, you love it.
10:15Maja!! Maja!!
10:19Teutreiben! Maja!!!
10:27Talani haha!
10:28Next up we have the opening scene of One Punch Man, where Saitama's introduction against
10:51Vaccine Man was just pure anime trolling.
10:54Vaccine Man shows up looking like he's just stepped out of Dragon Ball Z.
10:57A purple Namekian with Freeza's menace and Piccolo's voice, thanks to Chris Sabat absolutely
11:02going off in both his Piccolo and Vegeta registers.
11:05The dude's vibe screamed final boss energy, but then Saitama walks in, bold, bored and
11:10built differently.
11:12One Punch Later and this so called Dragon level threat goes from Dragon Ball villain to nothing
11:16but a messy splatter.
11:18Our man literally flexed the entire shonen formula and we have nothing to complain about.
11:22From the very first episode we learned that the monsters could destroy, the people could
11:25panic and the whole world could be destroyed, but Saitama would stop it all in one move.
11:30I'm sorry.
11:32I'm sorry.
11:33I apologize.
11:34I'm sorry.
11:35Not many sparks of this.
11:37I'm sorry about this.
11:39I'm sorry.
11:41I'm sorry.
11:43I'm sorry.
11:51I'm sorry.
12:04Oh, well...
12:13If you want something like this, Tokutomi,
12:16Ninko, Hibousi.
12:43absolutely terrifying. From the first scene, Gabimaru's vibe screams built different. This
12:48isn't some wannabe ninja, it's an executioner's worst nightmare and a walking contradiction. The
12:53man who claims he's empty inside but fights like he's powered by something stronger than survival.
12:58He proves he's not just another death row convict shipped off to the island, he's the monster
13:03amongst monsters and everyone else is about to find out why they call him The Hollow.
13:13The Hollow.
13:15It's a great skill. How do you do it?
13:20I'm not.
13:22That's the skill. One year.
13:27I'm a hero. I'm an internist.
13:31I'm a hero.
13:36Power!
13:39up next we have mirio from my hero academia yes that sunshine character that everybody loves this
13:55man straight up turned class 1 age training session into a live tutorial on why he's top of
13:59the big three you see him stretching like goku in one moment and in the other he's phasing through
14:04the ground popping up naked and absolutely bodying the entire class while yelling power now mirio's
14:11quirk isn't an ordinary one you literally can't use it not even one percent if you don't master it
14:16but mirio put in an insane grind removed its weakness and made it look like he was lag switching
14:21in real life the moment mirio showed up he literally proved why a guy with the right effort can feel
14:26scarier than any natural prodigy
14:29long
14:33some
14:35of
14:37me
14:38I'm
14:39in
14:41you
14:43me
14:48me
14:50he
14:52I
14:56me
14:58Clevertest doesn't just walk into the story, he cuts his way in, and the anime makes damn
15:06sure that you never forget it.
15:08Clevertest bursts onto the scene as an over-the-top demon, immediately making mincemeat of a squad
15:12of heroes and reducing an entire kingdom to rubble.
15:15He's introduced as a literal monster, a towering lord of beasts who slaughters 13 champions
15:21and even kills a king in one swoop.
15:23The anime piles on the gore and epic music, and Clevertest casually stands amid the carnage
15:27as if it's no big deal.
15:29Honestly, it feels like a full-on boss fight entrance with a dramatic orchestral score and
15:33all.
15:34He literally revives the hero he just killed and scoops up the kingdom's baby air all in
15:38the same breath.
15:39From his first frame, Clevertest is flexing raw power and confidence that screams, I'm
15:43the big bad of this show.
15:57You can see some of the pieces of time running with a steel-washed one of the people that
16:15used to be this.
16:16I'm the owner of this, but the other one's got him in the sea, they're a good friend,
16:19and he's got him in the sea.
16:20I'm the owner of this game.
16:21Okay, let's go.
16:22top flex the first time he shows up in Kill la Kill. See, Kill la Kill wastes no time introducing
16:27its madness and then Gamaguri's massive frame fills the doorway like a wall of pure intimidation.
16:33I mean, he literally shakes the entire room before he even steps in. The poor dude he was looking for
16:37thought he had a chance of getting away from him, but Gamaguri haunts him like a nightmare that he
16:42can't escape from. Within seconds, the culprit is manhandled, tossed around like a rag doll and
16:47shown exactly what happens when you underestimate the disciplinary committee's iron fist. He
16:52never really stood a chance against a beast like Gamaguri who makes sure to break you
16:55down and humiliate you in the end. This scene really makes Gamaguri an unforgettable character
17:00from the jump.
17:17Now, here's the thing. Anime fans love to bring up the three episode rule, but Soul Eater
17:34straight up said nope and hooked us in the first minute by dropping Maka into the streets
17:38of London and making her flex on Jack the Ripper. While most shows would spend a whole arc building
17:43up to their main character's first big fight, Maka shows up, Scythe in hand, and tells us
17:47exactly who she is. The gothic setting, the heavy guitar riff blasting in the background,
17:52and Maka's absolute confidence gets us hooked from start to finish. I absolutely love the
17:56way she calls out, your soul is mine, before landing the finishing blow. Pure flex energy.
18:13How was it? Is it over?
18:16How was it? Is it over?
18:31You did it, Freezer.
18:34Ahahaha!
18:36Freezer!
18:41You did it!
18:56If there's one thing DBZ knows how to do, it's turning entrances into pure legendary moments.
19:02So, Freezer pulled up to start his nightmare all over again, and we thought it was really
19:06over for everyone this time. But here comes a mysterious teenager with purple hair and a jacket
19:11that screams, final boss of the 90s. Nobody knew who he was, but the confidence on his face
19:16said it all. What happens next? Well, it's pure anime history. Trunks becomes Super Saiyan
19:21in seconds, no screaming for 20 episodes, no filler, just golden hair and dead serious eyes
19:27that make Freezer literally tremble with PTSD. And instead of dragging things out, he slices Freezer
19:32into pieces, vaporizes the scraps, and does it all with that Vegeta rhythm in his voice that had us
19:37instantly whispering, wait, is this guy his son? Even King Cole tried to cope, saying it was just the
19:42sword, when in reality, Trunks only pulled it out to style on them.
19:57Kazeo!
19:59Kazeo!
20:27Kazeo!
20:28Kazeo!
20:29Kazeo!
20:30Kazeo!
20:31Kazeo!
20:32Kazeo!
20:33Kazeo!

20:51Kazeo!
20:52Kazeo!
20:53Kazeo!
20:54Kazeo!
20:55Kazeo!
20:56heavier around him. This isn't some punk boss or disposable thug, this is Raw Menace wrapped in
21:02style. His flex, taking down his opponents with such ruthless efficiency, it feels like he's not
21:06even trying, casually dismantling anyone dumb enough to stand in his way. The contrast is wild.
21:11While others struggle to survive in the trash-ridden chaos, Enjin walks through it like a king
21:16surveying his kingdom. His debut makes it crystal clear. In a world full of monsters, Enjin is the
21:21Apex Predator.
21:48Sliding into Bleach, let's talk about the kind of villain entrance that makes you instantly fix
21:53your posture. Yuhar's first real appearance. Dude comes in looking like Goldie Rogers' long-lost
21:59cousin, rocking that royal moustache and calm voice, and says how he dislikes conflict. Which is
22:04hilarious, because this is literally the man who kicks off the biggest war in Soul Society history.
22:08When one of his own subordinates, Luda's Freegen, mounts off a little too much, Yuhar doesn't even
22:13move. Freegen's arm just falls off like reality itself obeys Yuhar's will. And that's why this
22:19moment hits harder than any explosion-filled intro. Yuhar establishes himself as the Quincy King by
22:24casually mutilating one of his own men, proving he doesn't need anything over the top when raw
22:29dominance is enough. In this scene, we were introduced to the man who was going to rewrite
22:33soul society in its blood.
23:03Shack!

23:24Shack!
23:25Now if we're talking about badass villain energy, nobody, and I mean nobody, makes an entrance quite
23:30like Meruem in Hunter x Hunter.
23:32This dude literally killed his own mother just by being born.
23:35The queen begged for more time, but Meruem said,
23:38Silence, in the deepest voice you've ever heard from a newborn,
23:41and then ripped his way into the world fully formed and dripping with menace.
23:44I mean, normally newborns cry when they're born, but Meruem tells his mom to shut up.
23:49Everyone was sweating bullets before, but the moment Meruem stood there with his tail twitching
23:53was the moment it was clear humanity was going to have a tough time with this one.
23:56It was seriously the birth of fear itself.
24:02Moving on, we have Sakamoto.
24:23Yes, the chubby convenience store owner is absolutely flexing.
24:26Sure, he doesn't look like he's ever taken part in a fight, but let's rewind a bit.
24:30Behind the glasses and soft belly, this man is the most feared hitman in the underworld,
24:35a legend who made crime bosses tremble.
24:38His aura is so heavy that when he finally moves,
24:40everyone instantly realizes he's not the one to be messed with.
24:43A whole squad of trained assassins charges him, blades out, guns locked, ready to erase him,
24:49and then they're done before they even realize what's happening.
24:51Sakamoto dismantles the entire group so effortlessly,
24:54it feels less like a fight and more like someone just deleting background NPCs.
24:58His movement was so clean, so surgical,
25:02you could understand immediately why even the deadliest killer spoke his name with respect.
25:06Sakamoto is here to remind you not to judge a book by its cover.
25:10I'm going to have to put it in my hand, but people are all killed.
25:14Hey, hold on! I can't do it!
25:16I'm not going to have to put it in my hand.
25:41You know, a full force of nature is on a different level when they turn a comedy into a full-on
26:07horror flick the second they step in.
26:09That's what happens the moment Evil Eye shows up in Dan Da Dan.
26:13At first glance, he looks ridiculous.
26:15Just some creepy dude in his underwear with a huge third eye.
26:18But then he starts moving, and suddenly it gets serious.
26:21Evil Eye's flex is simple but legendary.
26:23He goes head-to-head with Okarun in Gigi's body and immediately establishes himself as a menace.
26:28This man does not hold back.
26:31Okarun, who has Turbo Granny's insane speed, can't just run circles around him.
26:35In fact, he can't outrun him no matter how fast he is.
26:38Evil Eye's first appearance made it clear.
26:40This goofy underwear dude was no gag.
26:43It was a straight-up wall that pushed Okarun into a training arc.
26:46It's a blast.
26:54The battle is going on!
26:57It's happening!
27:06Let's go.
27:11Shinomiya Kikor...
27:13One thing you need is...
27:24Alright, let's talk about Gennarumi.
27:41At first glance, this man doesn't look like the strongest captain.
27:44You see the messy hair and the slouch posture, and you're thinking, wait, this guy's a captain?
27:48No way this guy's leading the most elite squad, but that's the beauty of it.
27:52Gennarumi looks like a gaming nerd until the moment the kaiju shows up, and that's when it's game time.
27:57His big flex comes when he goes head-to-head with a kaiju.
28:00Gennarumi casually pulls out his giant weapon 1, drops onto the kaiju's back, and explodes it like he's filling a balloon with water.
28:06The kaiju even lets out an elephant scream before exploding, but by then, Gennarumi's already dusting off his shoulders.
28:12That gap between lazy gamer and walking natural disaster is what makes his introduction so insane.
28:22Gennarumi does not work for the other massive combustion-like
28:26Gennarumi is a force that he can fight against the current battle, and we try to fight against the battle, and then it's now a way to fight against the power of his films.
28:30The end of the battle for Mami.
28:30Gennarumi there is no fire.
28:35It's a great weapon!
28:38Gennarumi....
28:39Gennarumi is an import to destroy the sword.
28:41Gennarumi!
28:45Gennarumi!
28:47Gennarumi!
28:50And then Demon Slayer hits us with one of the coldest villain introductions ever, Takaza's
29:19appearance on the Mugen train.
29:21His design screams martial artist demon, bare hands, tattoos, that icy smile, and you instantly
29:27know this isn't some cannon fodder demon.
29:29I mean, look at him treating one of the strongest Hashira like nothing more than a sparring partner.
29:34This was the first time we truly saw the gap between Hashira and the upper moons, and it
29:38hit hard.
29:39The way he no-sells Rengoku's flame strikes, smiling like it's fun, it just makes the whole
29:43fight feel unfair.
29:45Rengoku was exhausted after saving the train, yet he still stood toe-to-toe.
29:49Akaza was fresh, holding back, and still made the Hashira look human.
29:53That's a flex only a true monster can pull off.
30:19Fwo...
30:22Dab μ .
30:26Ah!
30:27Ah!
30:28Ah!
30:30Ah!
30:31Nambela!
30:33the ant king's introduction is straight up nightmare fuel the kind of debut that screams
30:56final boss energy before you even know his name born in the middle of jeju island like nature's
31:01cheat code you see the hunter struggling against waves of ants and suddenly their so-called trump
31:06card by egg yunho's crew gets dismantled like they're extras in a horror movie the anking flexes
31:12right from birth ripping apart s-rank hunters blitzing through battlefields like a blur and
31:17even treating career's top fighters like warm-ups his aura alone makes the strongest quake and every
31:22second of his introduction hammers home the truth this isn't a monster to defeat this is a disaster
31:28you pray to survive
31:54I know One Piece has a lot of legendary characters.
32:24But no one comes close to him.
32:25We have the man, the myth, the legend.
32:27None other than the legendary Rayleigh.
32:29When Rayleigh first steps into One Piece, the man doesn't even need to throw a punch to Flex.
32:33His reputation alone does the heavy lifting.
32:36Here's this old guy chilling at an auction house and chained up like he's just some random slave.
32:40And then the curtain drops.
32:42This isn't some nobody.
32:43This is the Dark King, Silvers Rayleigh, former first mate of the Pirate King himself.
32:47The same guy who could solo entire armies if he felt like him.
32:51When he finally makes his move, still in chains, he unleashes his Haki and drops a giant beast like it's nothing.
32:57You realize he's been trolling everyone the whole time.
32:59Rayleigh's introduction is the ultimate Flex, casually revealing he's a living legend
33:03and doing it with the calm confidence of someone who's already won.
33:07Now some characters don't need any kind of build-up.
33:35One look and you just know they're him.
33:37That's exactly the vibe Gojo Satoru gives off the very first time he steps on screen.
33:42Gojo equals Flex.
33:44He looks like he's nothing more than a laid-back teacher who loves to joke around.
33:47But he has to show what he's made of the moment Sukuna hijacks Yuji's body.
33:51Gojo completely overpowers Sukuna and playfully dodges every attack without much effort.
33:56Now Gojo wasn't even using a fraction of his strength.
33:59He was just toying around with the most terrifying creature known to humanity.
34:02That calm confidence cemented him as that calm but overpowered mentor the moment he stepped on screen.
34:08He sure showed Sukuna what he's been missing and it's that the New Age sorcerers aren't to be messed with.
34:13Get yourself!
34:16Ah!
34:17Ah!
34:17Ah!
34:22Ah!
34:22Ah!
34:24Ah!
34:29Ah!
34:31Ah!
34:32Ah!
34:36Ah!
34:37Madara Uchiha's intro is one of those anime moments that literally breaks the scale of hype.
34:53He wasn't just teased for years, he became a literal legend.
34:57Every time his name came up in Naruto, it was followed by silence, fear, or stories about how unstoppable he was.
35:03And then, when he finally arrives in the fourth great ninja war, the guy descends onto the battlefield like a final boss who spawned in the wrong stage.
35:11Madara looks at an army of tens of thousands of shinobi, the strongest united force in ninja history, and decides to warm up with pure taijutsu.
