Every anime character has its own unique traits. Some of these characters have a superior level of intelligence, like Norman of The Promised Neverland.

On this occasion, Dunia Games would like to give you a list of the five anime characters who have above-average intelligence. So, who are the smartest anime characters in question? Without further ado, let’s get into it!

1. Ishigami Senku

Ishigami Senku is a genius with an encyclopedic knowledge of everything science. He has a great comprehension of chemistry, physics, engineering, geology, biology, and mathematics. He’s able to devise tools and gadgets with ease -- using limited resources of the Stone World.

He has also concocted various kinds of medicines and even de-petrification elixirs. Aside from his scientific knowledge, Senku also possesses exceptional analytical thinking that allows him to always have options in any situation. Even in the hardest time that puts him at disadvantage, Senku always manages to solve the issue with his brilliance.

He also has a strong mental fortitude, allowing him to think quickly and keep his composure even in the direst situations.

2. Light Yagami

Light is depicted as a hardworking, talented, and naturally genius young man. He’s also highly perceptive and an amazing problem solver. Light was also a skillful planner and excellent at conceiving scenarios.

Light was also popular among his peers and adored by his family for his high intelligence. The constant praises he received from those around him had made him arrogant, especially after he had the Death Note in his hands.

3. Shiro

Shiro of No Game No Life has proven to be the most highly-intelligent character in the series. She has a very strong memory and is able to recall various kinds of information quickly and accurately. 

She claims that chess is just a tic-tac-toe game and was able to learn Imanity (a language in No Game No Life) in just 15 minutes.

According to her brother Sora, Shiro is fluent in 18 languages and is able to predict her opponents’ movements. In fact, she’s able to understand the mathematics behind the NPC’s movements of the game they played and was able to win using that info.

Even without his Geass, Lelouch is a formidable character. His most powerful weapon is his exceptional intelligence. With his brilliant mind, he’s capable of devising and executing his strategies with impeccable precision. 

When he’s a little kid, he was an amazing chess player, beating every opponent who played against him. He holds a record of winning a game in 8 minutes and 32 seconds. 

The only person he’s unable to defeat in a game of chess is his brother, Schneizel. 

5. Yumeko Jabami

From her first gambles, Yumeko has shown her above-average senses, memory, and observation that are almost at the superhuman level that increases her gambling abilities, coupled with her intelligence. 

She can differentiate modified cards from the tiny details in a glance.
