History TheJuggernaut / AnimeAndManga

* The servants summoned in a Holy Grail war, as in ''Literature/FateZero'', are [[ImplacableMan implacable]] more or less by default. Three of them, however, stand out as true Juggernauts: [[AwesomeEgo Archer]], [[RatedMForManly Rider]] and [[TheBerserker Berserker]]. Archer has almost unlimited access to flying weapons to bombard his enemies. Rider can use his flying chariot to overrun such opponents as [[EldritchAbomination Caster's monsters]] and Berserker (he isn't called the King of Conquest for nothing). Berserker deserves this title probably most out of all characters in the series due to his extreme perseverance (which helped him [[spoiler:defeat ''Gilgamesh'']] and survive being run over by Rider, among other things). And ''nothing'' will stop him from a duel to the death with [[KnightInShiningArmor Saber]].

*** UpToEleven when he finally starts trying. He's facing Goku in SSB with Kaio-ken x20, Vegeta at his strongest, Android 17, and Frieza, and the only thing keeping him from winning in a single attack is that in the tournament killing is forbidden on pain of annihilation by [[TopGod Zeno]]-and he wants to ''win'' the tournament.

* The Armored Titan from ''Manga/AttackOnTitan''. This unusual specimen is a 15m tall HumanoidAbomination covered in plates of thickened skin that allow it to shrug off cannon fire and just keep coming. Its first appearance involves [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0vnFRx2JUs charging and smashing]] through the internal gate of Wall Maria, an event that earns it legendary status among the survivors as an unstoppable horror. [[spoiler:Later on, the Scouts find out it's a MightyGlacier that has to [[ShedArmorGainSpeed shed its joints' armor to acquire speed]], exposing his AchillesHeel in a way that soldiers are trained to exploit. But even then, it has a ridiculous HealingFactor that lets it survive even attacks that would kill other Titans several times over. Not even slicing with his head and the nape on his neck is enough to kill him.]]

* ''Manga/NanatsuNoTaizai'' have Hendrickson in his [[spoiler:[[OneWingedAngel grey demon form]]]], which makes him ridiculously durable -- anyone who isn't one of the main characters or at least member of Seven Deadly Sins is unable to even scratch him. He casually walks through attacks, that could level small city, without even flinching. Even Sins, despite being insanely powerful, cause only minor injuries, despite attacking at full force.

* ''Anime/{{Digimon}}'':

* While not a Juggernaut herself, [[PsychoForHire Hunter J]] from the ''VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl'' [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] qualifies in a couple of ways:
** The three Pokémon she uses (only two of which actually fight) are so powerful that they never once take any perceivable damage, let alone get knocked out in battle. Her battling strategy is largely built on ScissorsCutsRock, overpowering her opponents by sheer strength. In most cases, she either successfully steals the Pokémon she's going after and Ash winds up recovering it from her client, or [[OnlyInItForTheMoney she abruptly quits her pursuit when her client cancels the deal]]. It makes you wonder how comfortably she'd be able to hold herself against the Elite Four.

** Walpurgisnacht is best described as a devastatingly powerful magical flying fortress (which keeps laughing insanely), and it's plain unstoppable. Even Homura Akemi, who has defeated every other witch she has come across, can't stop it with [[OneWomanArmy a literal army's worth of firepower]]. It just keeps laughing and moving forward. [[spoiler:Madoka had to become the goddess of magical girls to stop it, but that's an entirely different can of worms.]]

* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny'': The Destroy Gundam is the equivalent of the [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Psycho Gundam]]. It is a battleship-sized mecha that was unleashed in Eurasia, causing millions of civilian casualties, and killing thousands of soldiers, before finally being stopped.

** And then there's his canon version from ''Anime/DragonBallSuperBroly''. The man is pure power before he even becomes Super Saiyan, matching Vegeta as a Super Saiyan God and Goku as a Super Saiyan Blue. Once he officially turns Super Saiyan, it takes [[spoiler: [[FusionDance Goku and Vegeta officially fusing into Gogeta]] to stop Broly in his tracks]].

* Rikiya Gaou in ''Manga/Eyeshield21'' smashes through enemy defenses as though they were made of paper and is notorious for [[spoiler:forcing opposing teams to forfeit due to his tendency to break the arms of their quarterbacks]]. TheWorfEffect took place when [[spoiler: Kurita beat him, and then later, got beat up by Mr. Don in America.]]

* As you might find out in the Video Games section below, the servants summoned in a Holy Grail war, as in ''LightNovel/FateZero'' are [[ImplacableMan implacable]] more or less by default. Two of them, however, stand out as true Juggernauts: [[AwesomeEgo Archer]] and [[RatedMForManly Rider]], especially the latter who isn't called the King of Conquest for nothing and demonstrates it very well by simply using his flying chariot to overrun naughty things like [[EldritchAbomination Caster's monsters]] or his opponent [[TheBerserker Berserker]]. The former on the other side has almost unlimited access to flying weapons to bombard his enemies (see Video Games section below for more details).
** And then there's Berserker who is the walking embodiment of ImprobableWeaponUser. He deserves this title probably most of all characters in the series due to his extreme perseverance (which helped him [[spoiler: defeat ''Gilgamesh'']], among other things). And ''nothing'' will stop him from a duel to the death with [[KnightInShiningArmor Saber]].

** Also Father, [[spoiler: even more so when he eats God, but NotSoInvincibleAfterAll occurs when he starts losing control of it]].

** Quite a few Stands in the series qualify even if their users don't. [[TimeStandsStill The World]], [[LightningBruiser Star Platinum]]: [[spoiler: [[TimeStandsStill The World]]]], [[PowerOfTheVoid Cream]] [[SphereOfDestruction when in ball form]], [[MadeOfIron Sheer]] [[ImplacableMan Heart]] [[ActionBomb Attack]], [[WindsOfDestinyChange D4C -Love Train-]] and Tusk Act 4 all require far more than just brute strength to even get them to slow down. And even the best of these don't hold a candle to [[spoiler: Gold Experience Requiem, which can [[StoryBreakerPower utterly cease the cause and effect of just about anything that can be thrown at it]]]].

** Anyone, who isn't Luffy or Law is unable to even put a scratch on Doflamingo, and even both of above-mentioned attacking at full force still wasn't enough. Every sure-kill attack leaving him with only minor injuries. Only one, who was able to fight with him one on one, was [[spoiler: Gear Fourth Luffy]]. And when, after he was blasted across the country (twice),and it seems like he finally pass out... [[spoiler:he gets back up and effortlessly wipes the floor with army of gladiators, trying to stop him. He was only stopped after a second round of Gear Fourth, and the finishing blow essentially destroyed the city as collateral damage, and he still survived.]]

** Jack 'The Drought' of the Beast Pirates fought the Mink tribe for ''five days'' straight, and although the Minks were able to defeat his army, they weren't able to subdue Jack himself (not to mention how their best warriors constantly rotated themselves to, for lack of better word, stay fresh). Later on, it's shown that he can be stopped, but the fact it took [[HopelessBossFight an Admiral, an ex-Fleet Admiral, and three Vice-Admirals]] still speaks volumes of his threat level.
*** The comments from the other [[CoDragons All Stars]] in the Beast pirates imply that Jack is actually the weak one! Jack's subdued, apologetic reaction to their comments seems to confirm this as previously he met even perceived mild insults from even his own men with extreme anger and overwhelming force.

* Younger Toguro of ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'' is portrayed as this all the way up to his final moments. Toguro is a hulking monstrosity unfazed by even the strongest of attacks in the series, such as Genkai's point-blank Spirit Wave and Yusuke's mountain-crushing Spirit Gun, regenerating or growing stronger each time. He {{curbstomp|Battle}}s every single opponent in his way (including [[spoiler:his elder brother]]), terrifies Hiei and Kurama, two of the world's most notorious criminals, and when Yusuke finally approaches Toguro's strength and fires [[WaveMotionGun his strongest Spirit Gun yet]]? [[spoiler:Toguro dies not from damage sustained in battle, but from overexertion due to holding back said Spirit Gun]]. He even fits the bill physically: he's already a muscular 7-foot monstrosity in his human form, and his demon transformations become more and more large and muscular as he shows more power, [[LightningBruiser all the while gaining strength, defense, and speed with every transformation]]. [[spoiler:Yet he's not the strongest demon in the series.]]

* ''Anime/Digimon'':

* The Pig Deva Vikaralamon in ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' was like this. His actual fighting abilities were rather low but he simply ignored everything his opponents threw at him.
** The D-Reaper fits even better. Until the final episodes, absolutely nothing the tamers threw at it seemed to so much as slow it down. To this day, after seven series, the D-Reaper still may be the most unstoppable thing in the franchise.
** [=BlackWarGreymon=] in ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02'' is unstoppable during his arc. Given its made clear early on in the previous series that even a whole group of Ultimate level Digimon can barely slow down a Mega level, this isn't surprising. The only reason the heroes aren't killed immediately is because he simply didn't care about them enough to attack them after they were beaten unconscious. Even the couple of times it seemed they had finally got an upper-hand over him, he immediately rose back up, defeated them and moved to his next target.

* [[spoiler:Gigantomachia]] from ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' is a prime exemple. With his huge size of several dozen meters, his rock-like skin, his almost infinite endurence and all kinds of other physical modifications, he is almost unstoppable when he gets an order from his master. When he was told to join his master, he ran the entire 80km distance with only another giant being able to somewhat slow him down, while easily defeating many heroes and getting through cities ''like they weren't even there.'' [[spoiler:Only after being given an illegal amount of powerful sedative, restrained by a huge amount of carbon wires and attacked by the n°1 Hero was he finally put to a stop.]] Though when not given commands, we barely does anything, even if his allies are being attacked.

Its first appearance involves [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0vnFRx2JUs charging and smashing]] through the internal gate of Wall Maria, an event that earns it legendary status among the survivors as an unstoppable horror.

But even then, it has a ridiculous HealingFactor that lets it survive even attacks that would kill other titans several times over. Not even slicing with his head and the nape on his neck is enough to kill him.]]

** Whitebeard defines this trope. [[spoiler:After receiving 267 slashes and stabs, 152 bullets, 46 cannonballs, pierced by a laser, and half his face burned off, ''HE NEVER RETREATED'', as seen by his back which had absolutely no injuries, save for a couple that were just a result of being impaled from the front. And [[DiedStandingUp he died on his feet]], [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome like a true warrior]].]] Even more impressive, this is him elderly and after [[HandicappedBadass spending a considerable amount of time on life support]]. In his prime, he may have even been able to shrug all ''that'' off. And let's not forget his Devil Fruit, which is considered the most powerful of all Paramecia-types: [[spoiler:the Gura Gura no Mi, translated as Tremor-Tremor Fruit, which gives the user the power to create tremors of strength akin to earthquakes ''by punching the air''. The rumors about that fruit being able to destroy the world seemed to be proven true when he ''TILTED THE ENTIRE FREAKING OCEAN'']]''!''

** Anyone, who isn't Luffy or Law is unable to even put a scratch on Doflamingo, and even both of abovementioned attacking at full force still wasn't enough. Every sure-kill attack leaving him with only minor injuries. Only one, who was able to fight with him one on one, was [[spoiler: 4th gear Luffy]]. And when, after he was blasted across the country (twice),and it seems like he finally pass out... [[spoiler:he gets back up and effortlessly wipes the floor with army of gladiators, trying to stop him. He was only stopped after a second round of 4th gear, and the finishing blow essentially destroyed the city as collateral damage, and he still survived.]]
** Charlotte Linlin, also known as Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors. Ever since she was ''five years old'', nothing has been able to get between her and something she wants to eat whenever she gets one of her horrific hunger pangs. She'll mindlessly devour furniture, walls, innocents, powerful and legendary Elbaf giant heroes and ''her own children'' and none of these will even slow her down until she's finally had a big enough meal. Any individual pissing her off without food being involved will cause about the same effect, except whoever's in the way will get their souls ripped out or simply vaporized with a single swat of her hand instead of eaten.
** Jack 'The Drought' of the Beast Pirates fought the Mink tribe for ''five days'' straight, and although the Minks were able to defeat his army, they weren't able to subdue Jack himself (not to mention how their best warriors constantly rotated themselves to, for lack of better word, stay fresh). Later on, it's shown that he can be stopped, but the fact it took [[HopelessBossFight an Admiral, an ex-Fleet Admiral, and 3 vice-Admirals]] still speaks volumes of his threat level.

* Rikiya Gaou in ''Manga/{{Eyeshield 21}}'' smashes through enemy defenses as though they were made of paper and is notorious for [[spoiler:forcing opposing teams to forfeit due to his tendency to break the arms of their quarterbacks]]. TheWorfEffect took place when [[spoiler: Kurita beat him, and then later, got beat up by Mr. Don in America.]]

** The Walpurgis Night is best described as a devastatingly powerful magical flying fortress (which keeps laughing insanely), and it's plain unstoppable. Even Akemi Homura, who has defeated every other witch she has come across, can't stop it with [[OneWomanArmy a literal army's worth of firepower.]] It just keeps laughing and moving forward. [[spoiler:Madoka had to become the goddess of magical girls to stop it, but that's an entirely different can of worms.]]

* ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' has two. First, one of the nastier villains, [[spoiler:Kars]], who became completely unstoppable after a while, shrugging off anything and everything, including patching the two weaknesses vampires like him usually have with some powers of his own. The only way they could get rid of him was to [[spoiler:toss him into an erupting volcano so it sent him into orbit]], and that [[AndIMustScream didn't even kill him]]. The other was a Stand, Notorious B.I.G.. The owner went down like a punk, but the Stand itself is death-triggered, and on top of that regenerated from all damage. So defeating the user wasn't an option, as he was already dead, and defeating the Stand was literally impossible, as it simply regenerated from the damage and kept coming at Giorno and the others. In the end, they dumped it into the ocean, and even then, the general area where it ended up became another Bermuda Triangle, as it occasionally ate a ship or two when it wasn't chasing down the waves.

--->Whis: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JplzkAKhl9Y It doesn't matter if you're an animal, mineral, or ghost, there's nothing in the universe Lord Beerus can't destroy]]."
** Zen'oh. He's the TopGod, with power surpassing that of all the twelve Gods of Destruction combined. Shin outright stated that he could not be defeated... And when Zamasu [[spoiler:fuses with the whole multiverse of Future Trunks' timeline and starts affecting even the main timeline in the past]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7P4cSiDP0ms?t=1m47s he proves it]] by way of effortlessly annihilating [[spoiler:that particular universe and timeline]] with the same casual contempt of a man throwing something broken in the trash.

** Also in ''Dragon Ball Super'', Jiren. He's said to be even stronger than a God of Destruction (specifically, one ''stronger than Beerus''), and he delivers, failing to be stopped, among other things, by Kale's rampage (he casually one-shot her), Goku in SSJB with Kaiohken x 20, and a [[spoiler:''Final Flash to the face'']]. Of all of this, the only one that actually gave him some trouble was the latter, that managed to knock him down... Then he recovered immediately, complimented his attacker, and knocked him ''out''. Oh, and he's not been serious for a single moment while doing all of that.
*** UpToEleven when he finally starts trying. He's facing Goku in SSJB with Kaiohken x 20, Vegeta at his strongest, Android 17, and Frieza, and the only thing keeping him from winning in a single attack is that in the tournament killing is forbidden on pain of annihilation by [[TopGod Zen'oh]]-and he wants to ''win'' the tournament.
** Once he awakens as a God of Destruction, [[spoiler:Toppo]]. Not only his already considerable power increased manyfold, he also acquired the ability to use the Energy of Destruction,, and uses it both as a near-invincible attack and to surround himself with an impenetrable shield (as any attack, even ''ki'' ones, will just disintegrate before hitting him). The only things holding him back are the fact he's engaged in a tournament where killing is forbidden on pain of annihilation by [[TopGod Zen'oh]], thus he has to be ''very'' careful with his Energy of Destruction, and, not being very experienced with it, using it to attack requires a charge-up that keeps him from moving (but not from using the Energy of Destruction to defend himself).

--->"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JplzkAKhl9Y Ghost or not, there's nothing that lord Beerus can't destroy]]".

%%* Faudo serves this role in the last arc of the ''Manga/ZatchBell'' anime (and the next-to-last arc of the manga).

* [[HitmanWithAHeart Shin]] from ''Manga/{{Dorohedoro}}, NOTHING could stop him, even with his guts spilling on the floor, and no, we're not making this up.

* Lucy from ''Manga/ElfenLied'', especially in the first episode. Unlike many of her compatriots (in the same folder, no less), Lucy isn't a big, hulking brute. She isn't a super-powered mutant gone wrong. She isn't an alien from outer space. She doesn't have PoweredArmor that lets her plow through people. She's not [[EldritchAbomination an incomprehensible abomination from some obscure part of the universe]]. She doesn't have [[OneWingedAngel a last-second transformation]] that reduces all things to ash. No, Lucy is a short, slim, pink-haired teenage girl... who slices your limbs off, rips your head from your chest, tears out your heart, flings cars at you, destroys your eyes, and never allowing you to get a shot at her, let alone hit her.

** His canon counterpart in ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' is Kale of Universe 6. A shy and timid young Saiyan, when she's filled with intense loathing and jealousy (especially towards anyone who interacts with her boss Caulifla), she flips out and transforms into a "Super Saiyan Berserker" and decides to turn the person into a smear, as poor Cabba [[spoiler:and later Goku]] found out when he because the first target in her transformation.
** And then there's his actual ''canon'' version from ''Anime/DragonBallSuperBroly''. The man is pure power before he even becomes Super Saiyan, matching Vegeta as a Super Saiyan God and Goku as a Super Saiyan Blue. Once he officially turns Super Saiyan, it takes [[spoiler: [[FusionDance Goku and Vegeta officially fusing into Gogeta]] to stop Broly in his tracks]].
