About this list

Some anime characters are impossible to kill. Chop off their heads, stab them in the heart, or poison them - they just won't die. This is often due to immortality, like those who drank an elixir in Baccano! or were born indestructible like Kei Nagai of Ajin. For these characters, death is not an option. While most unkillable characters are immortal, some like Saitama of One-Punch Man are so powerful that their death seems impossible. Being unable to die can be a blessing or a curse. Alucard of Hellsing revels in his infinite lifespan, while Joseph of The Ancient Magus' Bride desperately seeks death, even through human experimentation. These characters are part of fascinating stories that explore the value of eternal life and invulnerability.
