[Asita]

Only one I flat out don't recognize is #4. I recognize the look of #2, but I can't place it or identify it.

Sailor Moon, #2, Vash the Stampede, #4, Ash Ketchem, Shinji Ikari, Monkey D. Luffy, Eren Jaeger, Haruhi Suzumiya, Spike Spiegel.

 

[Risingblade]

I've never even heard of #4

 

[Lilani]

1. Sailor Moon, can't be arsed to tell you her real name
2. Kyubei from Madoka Magica
3. Vash the Stampede from Trigun
4. Lain from Serial Experiments Lain
5. Ash Ketchum, Pokemon
6. No clue, reminded me of Kyoma from Steins; Gate but I know that's not him
7. Monkey D. Luffy, One Piece
8. Erin, Attack On Titan
9. Haruhi Suzumiya, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
10. Spike from Cowboy Bebop

I haven't actually seen much of One Piece or any of Haruhi or Sailor Moon, I just know them by osmosis from being around other anime fans, lol.

 

[DeltaEdge]

I recognized all of them except for the serial experiments lain one. I could tell that was what they were from from the style, but I haven't actually seen the series, so I don't know any of the characters.

Also interesting, while I am familiar with most of these characters in some way, I actually haven't seen about 2 or 3 of these shows at all. Haven't ever watched Serial Experiments Lain, Attack on Titan, or Madoka Magicka. Only familiar with them purely due to word of mouth from fans and pictures/memes from people on social networks. Never really watched Sailor Moon besides sometimes on Toonami back when it was still on TV, and I surprisingly have yet to finish both Trigun, and Cowboy Bebop, so I've really only "completed" about half of this list(Don't keep up with pokemon and haven't bothered with the eva movies).

 

[Rebel_Raven]

I knew most of them, and recognized, at the least, the rest to some degree, forgetting names, and what not. ... well,to be honest, the bunny, I mistook for the bunny thing from Magic Knight Rayearth, really.

Then again, I've seen a lot. Prolly forgot more than I remember.

 

[viscomica]

1) The girl from Sailor Moon
2)No idea
3)Vash (Trigun)
4)Lain (don't remember the complete title of the anime)
5)Ash (pokémon)
6)Shinji (Evangelion)
7)I don?t watch one piece so I don't know
8)Mmmm the dude from Attack on Titan
9)I don?t know
10)Spike from cowboy bebop

How did I do? huh? (I know... )

 

[Vendor-Lazarus]

A bit late to the party but I swear I didn't cheat.
Spoilering anyway.

1: Sailor Moon (Sailor Moon)
2: Don't Know
3: Vash the Stampede (Trigun)
4: Don't Know
5: Ash (Pokemon)
6: That guy in that dreadfull series..grah. Neon Genesis Evangelion
7: Don't Know (one piece?)
8: Don't Know (Titans something?)
9: Don't Know but recognize
10: Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop)

 

[Queen Michael]

I couldn't remember #4's last name, but I aced all the other ones.

 

[VanQ]

Wow, OP. That's gotta be the easiest list of anime characters I've seen. Let's pull out the big guns. How high is your power level? How many of these can you guys recognize? They're all girls and they'd all be considered the "main girl" of the series so there's no trick characters in here. I've also kept it recent. Like, they're all last 5 years recent.

So how many did you get? What's your powerlevel? 10 power points for each one you know.

 

[Fox12]

...

I recognized every one.

...

I guess I can't call myself a casual anime fan anymore. *shrug*

 

[JohnnyDelRay]

Okay, only 6 out of 10. And that doesn't even include all their names, 2 only the shows they are in. Don't really keep up with much newer stuff, but I think my score is more of a testament to the kind of anime I watch. Some I only recognized due to straight up popularity of the series, such as 1 piece, Pokemon and Sailor Moon....

 

[ThisNickname]

Ooh! Nine for ten. I still haven't gotten to Attack on Titan. X)
But yeah, someone should take to the streets with this, just like the Smash video. =D

Spoiler: my answers

1 - Usagi or Sailor Moon.
2 - ...I have no freaking idea.
3 - Vash the Stampede
4 - No idea...I'm only guessing that she's form Serial Experiments Lane
5 - Satoshi/ Ash Ketchum
6 - I know the face and the anime...I know that isn't Rei
7 - Monkey D. Luffy
8 - one of the Attack on Titan guys...I wanna say Levi
9 - Suzumiya Haruhi
10 - Spike Spegal

I don't watch anime too often at the moment...the last thing I watched was Saint Oniisan and before that I got into Detroit Metal City in a huge way. I plan on watching Seikima II's Humane Society mini-series because...well, it's Seikima II...Seikima II kick ass, even Koenma's cohorts from Yuyu Hakushou know that.

I feel like I would know a handful of anime characters that other people wouldn't know of but there are popular anime that I just don't care about or even like, such as Attack on Titan or, Naruto. Question to you though Gritch, why didn't you include familiar anime characters from anime feature films? Characters like D the Vampire Hunter, Jubei from Ninja Scroll, or Tetsuo from Akira?

 

[Kae]

Spoiler

1. Sailor Moon, I think her name is Usagi I don't know her last name but it's probably something like Tsukino? maybe.

2. Kyubey from Madoka, I don't know how to spell that.

3. Vash The Stampede from Trigun.

4. Protagonist of Serial Experiments Lain, I haven't watched it but I'm willing to bet her name is Lain.

5. Ash Ketchum from Pokémon.

6. Shinji Hikari from Evangelion if I recall correctly.

7. Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece.

8. Eren Jaeger from Attack on Titan.

9. Haruhi Susumiya or something similar, I don't know how to spell that, pretty sure the show has the same ame as the character.

10. Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop.

HUh.. This was too easy considering I don't watch too much anime, maybe you should add some more obscure ones?

 

[Lupine]

Spoiler

1. Sailor Moon (Usagi)
2. Kyuubi (or whatever spelling you want to use)
3. Vash
4. Lain
5. Ash or Satoshi
6. Shinji
7. Luffy
8. Eren
9. Haruhi
10. Spike

Don't even need to check it as I know I got them all right, so yeah too easy for me .

Likewise. It is sad that I was like, oh my someone else remembers Lain... ^_^

Also I feel like Spike was the anti-hipster pick. He and Ash are easily the most recognizable ones on the list, though I was glad to see Haruhi on the list because she is my favorite incarnation of God in anime.

Spoiler

The close second...

 

[babinro]

1. Serena (Usagi) Tsukino Sailor Moon
3. Vash the Stampede Trigun
5. Ash Ketchum Pokemon
7. Monkey D. Luffy One Piece

These. Oddly enough I've never seen a single episode of Trigun or One Piece either. I've seen about 2 episodes of a Pokemon anime and probably a dozen sailor moon episodes.

Even stranger was the fact that I didn't recognize "6. Shinji Ikari Neon Genesis Evangelion" despite the fact that I've watched this entire series and the movies along with it. Guess his character wasn't memorable to me.

About the only other anime related character's I'd have recognized would have been from Death Note, Ninja Scroll and Spiral. I'm not big anime fan but I enjoy bits and pieces. Not unlike most genres.

 

[Angelblaze]

Got all 10 right. In less then 2 minutes.


Almost got hung up on number 4 but I've seen that picture elsewhere (never watched the actual anime) listening to Anime openings.

In my defense, I'm a wannabe manga artist/artist that wants to do more 'manga' type drawing so I've been studying plenty...

still shitty thou :c
