My top 5 lightning users in anime

So, this is the last of these lists of my favourite characters of elemental attacks. The last two were fire and ice, so now we're moving onto lightning. Next to fire, this is probably the most popular of these elemental attacks for anime given how many characters actually use it. But given how much destructive power so many of them are able to use with it, it's definitely one of the most popular for a reason. Not to mention, like the other two, they can do some really creative things with it in regards to attacking or anything else like that. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Gilthunder (The Seven Deadly Sins):

Starting us off at number 5 is one of the Holy Knights from the Liones Kingdom, Gilthunder. Whether as a villain or hero, this Holy Knight has been using lightning for a whole bunch of powerful attacks. He can use it through any of his weapons like a spear or sword, he can move incredibly fast, call lightning from the sky, use it for charge attacks and was even able to use it to fight Meliodas for a little bit. 

4. Eneru (One Piece):

Next up is the God-like character of the Skypiea island, Eneru. As the person who ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Eneru has used it to become like a god in Skypiea and he's used it to great effects. Given how he's probably one of the most powerful One Piece characters ever thanks to it and the fact that he's a Logia type Devil Fruit user, it was hard for pretty much anyone to beat him until Luffy came along and did just that with his rubber powers. But Eneru is still super powerful regardless with his great control over the fruit and unleashing massive and devastating attacks. He was even just about to destroy all of Skypiea with it until Luffy stopped him.

3. Killua (Hunter x Hunter):

At number 3 is the young assassin of the Zoldyck family, Killua. While his assassin skills alone make him super deadly, he only got even more powerful after he learned Nen and discovered he was a Transmuter type Nen user. From that, he dicided to use the powers of electricity for his main choice in attacks. And, after tasing himself, he can use his Nen to make himself like a human lightning bolt. This can help him move quicker, use lightning attacks or use lightning through objects like his yo-yos. This has helped him out considerably like when he was fighting Youpi or trying to get to Gon as fast as he could.

2. Laxus (Fairy Tail):

Coming in close to number 1 is the Lightning Dragon Slayer, Laxus. While he's not a real or proper Dragon Slayer like Natsu, Gajeel or Wendy, Laxus is still insanely powerful as a Dragon Slayer in his own right. Even before he became a good guy, Laxus was still able to use his lightning the same way as Natsu with his Lightning Dragon Roar, Iron Fist and all the others. He even had some unique ones of his own like the Thunder Palace technique which is capable of destroying an entire town. Even if he never got a chance to use that properly, it still did a number on all the guild members who attacked the lacima containing all of them. And his strength is multiplied when he uses his own form of Dragon Force.

And my number 1 favourite lightning user in anime is... Kakashi (Naruto):

And finally at number 1 is Sharingan user and copycat ninja, Kakashi. While he may be known for copying other people's jutsus, his own jutsus are incredibly powerful too and his Lightning Blade is by far his best and most well known. To first master it, he even had to use his chakra to cut a bolt of lightning. And, given how the Lightning Blade is his favourite jutsu, he's got other versions of it for attacks like turning it into dogs, making lightning clones, using it with a kunai knife and cutting through anything with it and using it when he got a Susano'o, which was even powered by his lightning chakra. But even with his regular Lightning Blade, he's used it to kill so many of his opponents like Haku and Kakuzu. He was also trusting Sasuke with it when he taught him the Chidori. And while Sasuke's lightning powers are impressive as well, it more falls onto Kakashi in terms of mastery over it with him being the creator of the move. Despite Sasuke being more powerful with it after he became an adult, I still just prefer Kakashi with it too. And all that is why Kakashi is my favourite lightning user in anime. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 lightning users in anime. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.
