CATDOLL: Netizens are discussing: Which anime characters have good brains? Conan is not one of them

There is no shortage of smart characters in Japanese anime, but is "smart" really the same as being smart? In fact, being able to play with the opponent is the real "smart" right? So what are these anime characters? It's really hard to say. Recently, some Japanese netizens started a discussion on this. It seems that everyone has different definitions of smart and being smart.

Who do you think is the smartest character in the history of anime? I'm talking about humans who are intelligent and observant.

Although it may surprise everyone, I think people like Conan and Kindaichi are not actually the best candidates for the brains. After all, they are often led by the cases, so they appear to be very passive. Only people like Light Yagami who can manipulate others with their wisdom can be called "the best brains", right?

I think if we discuss this question, we should first consider whether the character's "good brain" is convincing. For example, if the plot forces a character to be good, then it will seem inconsistent and the character is only there to serve the plot. If I were to say, the best brain should be Yang Wen-li from Legend of the Galactic Heroes.

I nominate the protagonist of "Lupin III". Not only does he have the ability to move in an elusive way, but he can also find the best solution when facing any crisis. Of course, the reason why it is a nomination rather than a confirmation is mainly because his mind is not smart enough to "know how to overthrow Fujiko"...

It's obviously Kiyomaru from "Golden Boy Kashuu". He's the only character I've ever seen who really uses his brain to fight. And later on, the author gave him a cheat that can predict the future... but it's sealed in most cases.

After reading the above discussion, it seems that it is not a problem for Conan and Kindaichi, who are crazy about reasoning, to be considered smart. What other anime characters do you think have good brains? Let's discuss it together.
