The ability to fly is a very popular answer to the question "what superpower would you like?" category.
And it's easy to see why.
Never getting on a bus is already pretty cool. But when you can also give your best Superman impression, it gets so much better.
And, like anything you could want in life, flying is a very common feature in anime.
So let's take a look at this huge list of anime characters that have taken to the skies and see what they are.
20. Koro sensei
Anime: Assassin Class
When it comes to flying, Koro-sensei is an absolute pro.
It can scatter across the continent, clearing fighters in mid-flight.
He is also aerodynamic, spreading wind in his head and creating a small shield around his body in case he carries passengers.
Most flying characters have wings or something like that.
And yet this yellow blob with tentacles is the best pilot in the world.
I don't mind, but man, it's funny to think about it.
19. Ryuk
Anime: Death note
Although Ryuk rarely spreads his wings like a bird and flies through the sky, he constantly glides right next to the Light.
In fact, I don't know if I ever saw him walking.
I can't even imagine, to be honest.
In his eternal pursuit of apples, he sometimes picks up speed, but most of the time he is just intimidating.
I wish real shinigami were like that.
Maybe not in terms of looks, because that would be terrible. But in the department of relaxed lovers of flying apples.
18. Dio Brando
