Laust, a labyrinth orphan, was kicked out of his party because he was a mediocre healer and had little contributions to the team.

Keyaru’s dream of becoming a hero was not what he imagined. He developed healing abilities that could heal the gravest of injuries, but with severe drawbacks that had a silver lining. However, by the time he realized the potential of this silver lining, it was too late. So he went back in time by healing the world, leaving clues that would make him remember his true purpose—to exact revenge on the people who abused him.

Keyaru becomes a ruthless character because of his thirst for revenge, taking questionable measures to ensure his abusers get what they deserve and making sure no one gets in his way. Although not exactly driven by revenge, Noel also possesses this attribute, using people to achieve his goal no matter the cost.

6 Loner Life In Another World

Underestimated Protagonists That Rise Above The Challenge

Loner Haruka was transported with his classmates to another world and ended up the last in line to pick abilities. Being the last, the abilities left were the ones no one else wanted, as they seemed uncool but were actually very useful. Previously planning to live his secluded lifestyle, he now has to aid his classmates to avoid conflict in this new world.

While both characters managed to achieve strength through unconventional means, the abilities that Haruka and Noel were granted were considered useless, with next to no sign of growth. As such, people often have zero expectations for their capabilities and often underestimate them.

5 Plunderer

A Way To Thrive Amid Harsh Societal Systems

• Japanese Title: Plunderer
• Number of Episodes: 24
• Studio: Geek Toys

Hina sets out to fulfill her mother’s last wishes in a world where the numbers engraved on your body determine your very existence.

On her journey, Hina meets a masked swordsman with a negative count who is secretly a legendary individual.

In the world of Plunderer, characters often exploit one another to survive in a world where their existence is determined by their count. Similarly, in The Most Notorious “Talker” Runs the World’s Greatest Clan, Noel Stollen survives in a world where one has to rely on strategic alliances and manipulation.

However, a portal transports him to another world where money is everything, but without the comfort he had already built. Now barely scraping by in an exploiting mining company, Kinji is determined to make it in this new world using any means possible.

Despite the odds stacked against him, Kinji was ready to achieve that wealthy status once more and did not let anything deter him or stand in his way. The same goes for Noel. With his Talker abilities that would have ordinarily made anyone give up, he remains unshaken and uses his abilities to doggedly chase his dreams.

Defying the odds, Tanya joins the military and is determined to climb the ranks so she can eventually live a peaceful retirement after her accomplishments have been rewarded. Unfortunately, Being X stands as an obstruction to the peaceful life she dreams of.

Both Tanya Degurechaff and Noel Stollen are ruthless strategists, employing ruthless tactics to achieve their goals. Tanya, despite having a childlike appearance, prioritizes victory over compassion, manipulating powerful enemies and even her allies.

2 The Rising Of The Shield Hero

A Strategic Use Of Allies Is Incorporated

The Shield Hero is the least appreciated hero among the Four Cardinal Heroes in the Kingdom of Melromarc, and Naofumi Iwatani ends up being reincarnated into this world as just that. After being exploited by the King’s daughter, he is stripped of his resources and mocked by the people of Melromarc. With hate in his heart, Naofumi is determined to gain power and live out his best life, even without support from the kingdom.

Because they lack the typical offensive capabilities, both Naofumi and Noel acquire strong allies that help them further their goals and ambitions. These strong allies make up for their combat limitations, allowing them to manipulate situations in their favor and use their intelligence to the fullest.
