The anime adaptation of "Kemono Jihen" is set to air in January 2021, and has been drawing attention. Who is the strongest character among the many fascinating characters that appear in "Kemono Jihen"? Before the protagonist Natsuha engages in a heated battle in the anime version, you'll want to understand the power relationships and differences in ability between the characters. So, this time, I would like to introduce the characters that appear in "Kemono Jihen" in the form of a "strength ranking".
13th place: Tademaru Ori
He is a young man who works at the Inugami office, just like the protagonist Natsuha. He is half spider (Arachne) and half human, and can transform his bodily fluids into spider silk. Although he clashed with the main character, Natsuha, at first, they came to respect each other as the story progressed. In the story, he cooperates with Natsuha to face many strong enemies.
Support type
In the story, he plays an active role as a support for Natsuha, who has an immortal body and can fight without fear of death. Therefore, when viewed in terms of individual fighting power, Ori is not strong, but when teamed up with Natsuha, he is also a character who shows his true abilities.
12th place: Inugami Tsuzumi Yachi
A monster tanuki who employs Natsuha, Ori, and Akira. Like a tanuki, he has the ability to transform and materialize things. This is also an ability that is difficult to use in battle, but it has the advantage of being able to fight flexibly by materializing a pistol.
A reliable boss
He is the person who caused Natsuha to dream of meeting her parents, and he is a character who plays the role of a good life mentor who guides Natsuha, Ori, and Akira throughout the story.
11th place: Taisaburo
He is a tanuki who rules over the tanuki of Shikoku, the hometown of Inugami. In the story, he easily defeats the protagonist, Natsuha, who can be said to be almost the strongest being, and shows his high fighting ability despite his advanced age. Although it is not depicted much in the story, since he is a tanuki like Inugami, it is possible that he is hiding some kind of transformation or materialization ability, and he is a character whose true potential is still unknown.
Train Natsuha! !
In the story, he has noticed Kabane's weakness of not being able to tell if a wound is fatal or not, even though Kabane has never died from any injury he has received, and he is training Kabane to be able to tell what level of attack he should avoid.
10th place: Tamaki
A survivor of a village destroyed by Iyu's gang. A descendant of a family that has inherited the Ryukyu stone for generations, he transforms into a giant snake-like creature when he possesses the Ryukyu stone. In the story, he contributed to repelling Iyu's gang.
9th place Kon
She is a fox girl who is part of Iyu's gang and is after Natsuha's life stone. Although she appears as Iyu's right-hand man in the early stages, she decides to break up with Iyu and become Natsuha's companion after interacting with him. As she is a character who is portrayed as clearly having feelings for Natsuha, many fans consider Kon to be the heroine of this work.
She plays a major role in the early stages! !
After parting ways with Iyu, Kon had very few opportunities to shine, but when he was in conflict with Natsuha as Iyu's subordinate, he was able to fully demonstrate his high level of ability.
8th place: Yo
A member of Iyuu's gang, aiming for Natsuha's life stone. They can cut into pieces of the human body without damaging the cells. Their combination with Robara, who can create and glue substances similar to the human body, was overwhelming, causing great suffering to Natsuha, Ori, and Akira.
7th place Hanagata Kaede
A member of Iyu's crew who are after Natsuha's life stone. He is one of the most martial artists in Iyu's crew and has excellent fighting ability. However, he has a habit of overconfident in his own strength and giving up thinking during battle, and in the story, Ori sees through this weakness and defeats him.
The ultimate attacking type
Although he has a weakness in that he cannot think during battle, his superior fighting ability makes him a troublesome person if he becomes an enemy.
Collaboration with Akagi
Hanagata has a weakness of not being able to think during battle, but he teams up with Akagi as a partner, and Akagi seems to cover for him in terms of thinking. Akagi thinks and Hanagata goes wild, and they stand in front of Natsuha and the others as a tag team that effectively covers each other's strengths.
6th place Yui
He is Akira's older brother who works at the Inugami office just like Natsuha. To Akira, Yui is his long-lost brother, and in the story, Akira's goal is to reunite with Yui. Although there is a fuss when they reunite, after that he becomes a good older brother to Akira and is a gentle person towards Natsuha and the others.
Fighting for her brother
Yui was once at odds with Natsuha and the others, but her principle of action was always to fight for her brother, and when she realized that Natsuha and the others were important to her brother, she no longer had conflict with them.
5th place Akira
He works at the Inugami office with Natsuha and Ori. Unlike the warlike Natsuha and Ori, he has a timid personality and is weak-minded and cannot actively participate in battles. In the story, Akira's growth is carefully depicted as he struggles with his own weaknesses and moves forward little by little, and he is a character with many fans.
He becomes strong when awakened! !
Akira was troubled by his own weakness of heart, but when his friends were in trouble, his ability suddenly awakened. Until now, he was unable to make ice without water, but suddenly he was able to generate a huge amount of ice even in places where there was no water, and he demonstrated abilities equal to or greater than his brother Yui.
4th place Nobimaru
He is a member of Iyu's gang who is after Natsuha's life stone. He is a person who appeared as Kon's successor, and although he has the appearance of a cute boy, he is in a position to give orders to Iyu's gang, and even Iyu appreciates his abilities.
Brutally cruel
Not only is he skilled, but he also has a cold and cruel personality, making him a perfect character for the evil Iyu gang. In the story, he carries out any brutal mission without changing his expression, and unlike Kon, he can be said to be an enemy character who also has mental strength.
He still has his true abilities hidden
Nobimaru is already a strong enemy character, but he has hinted at hidden abilities, and it can be said that he is a character whose true abilities will be revealed in the future. Depending on future developments, he may be ranked even higher.
3rd place: Mihai
He stays shut up in a room in the Inugami office and manages the office's internet environment and homepage in place of the machine-illiterate Inugami.
Higher race: Vampire
According to Inugami, Mihai is a higher race, a vampire, and seems to have a superhuman physique and intelligence. Unfortunately, there have been no scenes in the story where Mihai is fighting, so it is difficult to predict his fighting abilities, but taking into account that he is a higher race, isn't it reasonable to think that he is stronger than the ordinary fox spirits, Ibu and his gang?
2nd place: Iio Fox Spirit
He is a character who is after Natsuha's Life Stone. He sends his subordinates to Natsuha to steal the Life Stone from her. On the other hand, his own battle scenes have not yet been depicted, so we are looking forward to future developments! This is the kind of character he is.
A final boss-like existence! !
Although no actual battle scenes are depicted, Iyu is the final boss of the story, with a group of strong men under his command, and it can be seen that Iyu has outstanding fighting power among the group.
1st place: Kusaka Kabane
The protagonist of this work. Although his combat ability is not that high, he has the ultimate ability of never dying because he is half human and half Shiki (Kula). Even if his head is cut off, his body grows back immediately, which is an incredible ability, and it is impossible to completely defeat Kabane. He is truly an invincible hero who will never lose no matter what the situation.
Summary
What did you think? This time, we have introduced the characters that appear in Monster Incidents in the form of a strength ranking. The Monster Incident series itself has only just begun, so there is little information available, and it is unclear whether this ranking is necessarily correct, but I think many readers would agree that the protagonist is overwhelmingly strong. In any case, there is still very little information available about the Monster Incident series, so we can look forward to future developments and the anime's content!
