The Loudest Anime Characters

A commonly overlooked trope of shonen anime is how loud some characters can get. As shonen is a style of show with a younger demographic in mind, there is a tendency for the characters depicted to be somewhat exaggerated.

This exaggeration can come in many forms, but one of them is how big the character is. It could just be the way they talk or when they scream really loud. Some characters are positively iconic because of how much they scream, and even for them it was annoying at first, it usually grows on people and they get used to it.

9 Kamina (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann)

His whole personality screams loud

For those who have never seen Gurren Lagann or even know any spoilers regarding the show, it's easy to assume that the charismatic Kamina is the main character of the series. A free-spirit can be considered more like a personality than a loud voice.

Kamina was instrumental in bringing the protagonist Simon out of his shell and inspiring the people of the underground village to surface and fight. He was loud as he gave some of his speeches and callouts for his moves.

8 Naruto Uzumaki (Naruto)

Typical loudmouth hero

Shonen heroes come in all shapes and sizes, but they can be loud especially when it comes to fighting. It can be to show your feelings in the moment or to get your message across. Naruto is a typical shonen hero in this regard. Naruto's dream is to become Hokage, and he pursues this ambition with single-minded determination.

In many of his battles, Naruto is loud, yelling beyond belief, and sometimes his yelling can be used for comedic purposes. This is what Sakura does too, as she can also be very loud.

Loud things come in small packages

Edward Elric is the main protagonist for the classic anime, Full Metal Alchemist. There are three things that anyone who's seen the show will say about Edward: he's too handsome, he's too short, and he's too loud.

Edward's height means he also has a short fuse and is always willing to chew people out when they annoy him or comment on his height (or lack thereof). He can really go with the best of them and no one wants to be on the receiving end of an Edward rant.

6 Taiga Aisaka (Toradora)

Short, loud, and violent

When talking about classic romance anime of the 2000s, such a list would be incomplete without Toradora. To the uninitiated, it may seem like a healthy romance (which it is to be fair) with two lovers getting to know each other.

But, in Taiga, viewers get a despicable person with lungs to give and a violent streak that might not be appreciated in today's society. Taiga is a perfect tsundere who would rather hit on the boy she loves than admit her feelings. When she confesses, she doesn't get upset and does it with a shout.

5 Squalo (Hitman Reborn)

Xanxus' voice

Squalo is the second-in-command of the Vongola Assassination Team and the right-hand man of Xanxus, the leader. He is the main antagonist in one of the most interesting arcs of Hitman Reborn.

He is known for how loud he speaks. Squalo yells about everything. That said, he is a loyal character and committed to Xanxus' goals even when he is not treated with the fairness his loyalty deserves.

4 Natsu Dragneel (Fairy Tail)

Almost killed a boy by screaming

From Natsu Fairy Tail One of the most beautiful heroes in the shonen landscape. Arrogant by nature, Natsu not only has the fighting ability, but also the lungs to make it onto any hot character list.

Most memorably for Natsu, his roar is so powerful (and loud) that he defeats villains. This happened when he fought against another dragon slayer, Eric. Eric's hearing is extremely sensitive, so much so that he can even hear a human's heartbeat. Against Natsu, he thought he had the upper hand until the Fire Dragon Slayer screamed so loudly, it knocked Eric unconscious.

3 Inosuke Hashibara (Demon Slayer)

An absolute beauty with all the wrong behavior

Inosuke from Demon Slayer is a surprising character: incredibly wild, yet blessed with immense beauty, he's a character that can take some getting used to. On top of Inosuke's short temper, pride, and confrontational character, he is also very loud.

Regularly seen shouting his words, they belie his beauty and make him a truly fascinating character. Inosuke is a fan favorite because despite all his flaws, he is Tanjiro's loyal ally, and a hero on the side of justice.

2 Bakugo Katsuki (My Hero Academia)

A spiky-haired loudmouth

Bakugo is one of the most well-developed characters in shonen. Starting out as a bully who takes Midoriya ruthlessly, Bakugo will eventually grow as a character to become one of the most reliable heroes.

However, while a lot has changed about Bakugou, one thing that hasn't improved is his volume. Bakugo is one of those characters who says everything they say whether friendly or hostile. Bakugo has no indoor voice and people had to either accept him for who he was, or stay away.

1 Asta (Black Clover)

Had to endure for a while

Black Clover was notorious for being an anime with ambitions to rival HxH, Naruto, Bleach and co with a weekly episodic format and long arcs that were quite an anomaly as seasonal anime grew. .

A big part of Asta Black Clover's early popularity was because of how big he was. Asta was so loud that he turned some people off completely throughout the anime. But this lasted for one of the first several episodes as his character softened a bit and people got used to him and grew to respect him for his other skills. He is still very loud though.
