It was announced that "The Fable" will be made into an anime in 2024 this year, and the appeal of this work is the many crazy assassins that appear in the work. This work depicts the daily struggles of Sato Akira, a genius killer, who aims to live an ordinary life as an ordinary person, and due to the nature of the work, many assassins and gangsters will appear. The characters in this work are also characters who have been through many battles, so each one is very unique and has solid abilities. The characters that appear in this work are members with strong quirks that cannot be seen in other works, so I'm sure there are many fans who particularly like the characters that appear in this work. This time, I would like to introduce the bad guys that appear in this work in a ranking format. The bad guys that appear in this work are the characters that can be said to be the face of the work, so please check it out.
11th place Matsu
11th place on the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is Matsu. Matsu is a person who works as an arms dealer under Yamaoka. Although he does not have much fighting power, he is active in behind-the-scenes work such as procuring materials and information. In the work, he is a character who does not play an active role very often, such as being torn by Eucalyptus, but considering that fighting is not his main job, this ranking can be said to be appropriate.
Former Hitman
Matsu's main job is dealing with information and weapons, but he used to be a hitman, so it can be said that he has some killing ability. He is a character who has a fair number of fighting scenes, so rather than saying that he has no fighting ability at all, it seems that the other characters are too strong, which is why Matsu's fighting ability seems low.
9th place - The Hood
The 9th place in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is the Hood. The Hood is a person hired by Sunagawa, and appears as a character who aims to kill the legendary assassin Sato Akira, also known as the Fable. He was originally a freelance assassin, and it can be said that his skills are quite impressive. Although he is a person who shows a fair amount of activity in the work, he is easily defeated by the legendary assassin Akira.
Despite defeating the kickboxer with a landslide victory,,
However, it is true that Hood's achievements are depicted quite well, and in the story he defeats a kickboxer with champion-level skills with a landslide victory. He is not highly rated because Sato Akira, who he fought in the story, was an extraordinary monster, but if you think about it normally, just defeating a kickboxer is a great achievement, so it can be said that he is a character who deserves a little more recognition.
8th place Suzuki
8th place in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is Suzuki. Suzuki is originally a hitman who appears under Utsubo, and is portrayed as a person who plays an active role in many scenes in the work. In the first part, he will eliminate many people as a cold-hearted hitman, but he is completely defeated by Yoko, Sato Akira's partner.
The only decent hitman?
Even though he was defeated by Yoko, he is a skilled assassin, so you might think he has a crazy personality, but he is a character who shows a compassionate side, such as betraying his friends out of concern for women. It can be said that he is the only assassin who has a decent sensibility in this work.
7th place: Jiro
Jiro is ranked 7th in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work. Like Hood, Jiro is a person who was hired by Sunagawa, and is a character who stands in the way of Akira and Yoko as a skilled assassin. As an assassin, he is not only highly skilled in combat, but also cautious enough to carefully conduct advance investigations, etc., so it can be said that he is a person with considerable ability as a hitman.
Tricky Combat
A particular feature of Jiro's fighting style is his focus on killing with poison. Jiro is the only character in the series who uses poison, and in the series he kills Boss Hamada with poison. Because he uses poison, the police were not aware that he had been killed, which shows how careful he is when it comes to killing.
6th place: Yoko Sato
6th place in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is Yoko Sato. Yoko is a hitman who has worked with Akira as his partner, and also appears as a main character in this work. Since Akira's actions, who acts together with her, are so crazy, attention is rarely focused on how crazy she is, but if you pay attention to each depiction, Yoko is also a pretty bad guy.
An extraordinary fighting ability for a woman
What's scary about Yoko is that despite being a woman, she has the ability to rival a top-class assassin. Like Akira, she has been learning the art of killing since she was a child, so she can stay calm and take down her opponent in any situation. On the other hand, because she has never killed anyone, she has a mental weakness in that she cannot kill her opponent completely, but even so, she defeats Suzuki, a top-class assassin, in an instant in the story, which shows that she has extraordinary abilities for a woman.
Not just a support
Basically, Akira is the main character who eliminates the target, and Yoko supports him. However, there are many scenes in the story where Yoko also plays an active role as a main player, so it can be said that she is not only a support character, but also a character who can play various roles according to the situation.
5th place: Eucalyptus
5th place in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is Eucalyptus. Eucalyptus is a person who works as a subordinate of Yamaoka, and is the partner of Azami, another subordinate of Yamaoka who appears in this work. As you can see from the fact that the flower language of eucalyptus flowers is "memory", he has a superhuman memory and plays a role in supporting his partner Azami, who is specialized in combat, in terms of intelligence.
Active outside of combat
As a result, Yukari is a character who is often portrayed playing an active role outside of combat scenes. Since Azami is the one who basically does the fighting, she is active in tactical aspects. In the story, Yukari, who specializes in intelligence, and Azami, who specializes in combat, are depicted as a flawless duo, and since they are active as a duo, it can be said that they are characters who cannot be easily defeated.
No match for Azami
Although he himself has stated that he cannot beat Azami, there are a fair number of battle scenes, and it can be said that his pure fighting power is quite high. It is just that Azami's fighting power is overwhelmingly too high, and even when viewed as a single force, it is clear that Yukari is a very excellent killer.
4th place: Azami
Azami is the 4th most dangerous character in this work. Azami is the partner of Eucalyptus, who was introduced earlier. The flower language of the thistle flower is "Do not touch", and you can already see how dangerous Azami is from that flower language. He is one of the characters with the best fighting power in the work, and his overwhelming fighting sense makes him a very dangerous guy.
Can he compete with Yamaoka? ?
He is an executive of the organization to which Akira belongs, and is said to be on par with Yamaoka, who has overwhelming abilities, and Yamaoka has earned his overwhelming trust due to his high level of ability. At first, he gives off the vibe of being a good guy, so many fans thought "he might be a pretty good guy" when he first appeared, but as the story progressed, many fans were probably frightened by his extraordinary abilities.
One of the most powerful characters in the series
Azami is one of the most powerful characters in the series, and it can be said that he is the second most powerful character in the series after Akira. On the other hand, it is more frightening to think that Yamaoka and the boss, who are supposed to be retired, may have stronger fighting abilities than him.
3rd place: Yamaoka
Yamaoka is the third in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work. Yamaoka is the boss of Eucalyptus and Azami, who were introduced earlier, and is active as an executive of the organization to which Akira belongs. He was originally a first-class assassin himself, and in the past, he specialized in killing the most difficult assassins due to his overwhelming ability.
The ultimate assassin
His personality is extremely cruel, and he seems to enjoy killing. As he himself has said, his amygdala is messed up, and he feels no fear. He is truly a psychopath with no mental weaknesses, so he can be called the ultimate assassin. There is no doubt that he is the one with the most overwhelming potential among the assassins who appear in this work.
2nd place: Boss
The second place in the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is the boss. The boss is Akira's foster parent and also appears as the leader of the organization he belongs to. He is the person who ordered Akira to hide his identity as a hitman and act as a civilian, and even Akira, the strongest character in the work, cannot stand up to him.
Former strongest? ?
He is the one who taught Ming, who is said to be a genius at killing, the know-how of killing, and it can be said that his skills are certainly high. Even now, there are scenes where he gives various advice to Ming, and he still surpasses Ming in terms of technique. His skills have declined because he is no longer in his prime, but it can be said that he may have had greater skills than Ming when he was active in the past.
His abilities have not diminished even now
Even though he can no longer demonstrate the same power as he once did, he still seems confident in his abilities, saying to Akira, who is currently the strongest, "I'm going to kill you!!" As a leader of an organization, he is a good character who rarely gets his hands dirty, but it can be said that he still has plenty of power left.
1st place: Sato Akira (The Fable)
Number 1 on the ranking of the bad guys who appear in this work is Sato Akira, also known as The Fable. Sato Akira is the protagonist of this work and is feared as the strongest assassin in the underworld. No matter what the situation, he has the ability to kill his opponent with one shot within 6 seconds. In the work, he also has the special ability to easily change his personality and way of speaking by flipping a switch in his head, making him a true genius at killing. He kills relying on complex senses that even he himself cannot fully explain, so it can be said that his killing techniques are not something that even ordinary assassins can imitate.
The Strongest Killer
As such, Sato Akira is a character who is outstanding not only in his killing skills but also in various techniques for killing, and can be said to be the strongest killer in the work. Instead, he is a clumsy character in real life and can be said to be quite insane. In the work, he is suspected of having "savant syndrome" due to the gap between his unique killing skills and his everyday life, and his extremely inhuman killing ability is explained.
Summary
What did you think? This time, we have introduced the scary characters that appear in this work "The Fable" in a ranking format. This work features many assassins, and as they compete with each other in the underworld, a variety of scary characters have appeared. Even among the characters we were unable to introduce this time, there are many who are extremely dangerous and inhuman, so if you are a fan who has become interested in the scary characters in this work after reading this article, be sure to check out the original work.
