Although they often make viewers upset, anime characters who aren’t that bright usually make us laugh with their silliness. According to Dunia Games, here are some of the dumbest anime characters who always entertain viewers with their absurdness.

So, who are the dumbest anime characters we have on this list? Without further ado, let’s get into it!

1. Monkey D. Luffy, One Piece

Monkey D. Luffy is the captain of Straw Hats who’s also the most feared pirate. However, he’s not the brightest -- he always has a simple perspective. 

Due to Luffy’s simple mind and ridiculous behaviors, One Piece becomes an entertaining anime that always manages to make viewers laugh.

2. Son Goku, Dragon Ball

Another simple-minded shounen anime protagonist is Son Goku from Dragon Ball. What makes Goku one of the dumbest anime characters is the fact that he grew up alone in the forest, which made Goku unaware of so many things -- he didn’t know about the difference between male and female, and he didn’t even know what marriage is.

3. Natsu Dragneel, Fairy Tail

At number three, we have Natsu Dragneel, the protagonist in Fairy Tail. He seems a bit dull, but Natsu’s actually a kind person. Natsu is a reckless young man, and often takes risks without thinking. Or perhaps he just wants to get in fights.

4. Uzumaki Naruto, Naruto

At first, Naruto is depicted as a dim-witted, mischievous kid -- especially in the first parts of Naruto. He’s having trouble learning the theories of jutsus despite his practices.

However, in Boruto, Naruto is way smarter -- we can see his intelligence in managing Konoha.

5. Sakura Haruno, Naruto

Another Naruto character who’s not so bright is Sakura Haruno. Due to so many instances that showcase Sakura’s stupidity, many fans create numerous memes that show Sakura’s absurdities, which often lead to her being a burden to those around her. 

But, Sakura has a crucial moment in Naruto’s life. Agree?

6. Hashibira Inosuke, Kimetsu no Yaiba

At first glance, you may notice that Inosuke is a bit dense. He doesn’t think before he acts -- always charge down anyone/anything that he believes to be Demons. Sometimes this leads to Inosuke attacking innocent people.

Inosuke often has trouble pronouncing the names of other characters, such as Kamado Tanjiro whom he calls Kamaboko Gonpachiro, or Zenitsu whom he calls Monitsu.

7. Kaminari Denki, Boku no Hero Academia

This character may not strike as dim-witted as other characters on this list. But, in certain moments -- when Kaminari Denki channels his power, he gets affected by the side effect of his quirk.

8. Black Star, Soul Eater

Usually, the rival of the main protagonist in shounen anime series tends to be intelligent, in Soul Eater, Black Star is the complete opposite. Black Star is desperate to be recognized as a powerful assassin, which often makes him do stupid things such as signing autographs to people who don’t even ask him to or fighting his own friends who outshine him.

9. Misa Amane, Death Note

Misa Amane isn’t the brightest character in Death Note. When Misa Amane receives the Death Note, she chooses to make a deal with Shinigami by sacrificing her life -- she even does it twice. She sacrifices 75% of her remaining life to become Kira’s tool.

10. Aqua, Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!

A rather useless Goddess. Perhaps that’s the appropriate way to describe Aqua in KonoSuba. She’s actually not that foolish. However, Aqua often gets herself in unfortunate circumstances and drags her friends into these silly situations.

11. Megumin, Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!

Another KonoSuba character that deserves to be mentioned on this list is Megumin. Regardless of her adorable looks, Megumin is a reckless character who often harms her friends due to her inability in controlling her power.

12. Taiju Oki, Dr. Stone

At face value, you may already know that Taiju Oki isn’t the brightest character as he relies on his sheer strength to survive. He even mentioned that he’s the muscle and Senku is the brain. Taiju doesn’t really understand what Senku says -- he’s always excited when being asked to do anything that relates to his strength.

13. Akihisa Yoshii, Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu

From the title of the anime, you may have guessed that there are a lot of characters who aren’t that bright. And, Akihisa Yoshii is one of the silliest characters, who often does stupid things and continues to repeat them. If you think that he does “common” stupid things, you may be surprised by the extent of his absurdness.

14. Noda Megumi, Nodame Cantabile

Noda Megumi is the heroine in Nodame Cantabile who often acts awkwardly -- doing silly things, especially around Chiaki Shinichi. Nodame can be very mischievous and childish, which hampers her academic progress on campus. 

However, Nodame is a talented pianist despite Chiaki’s claim about her messy playing style.

15. Yoshiko Hanabatake, Aho Girl

Appearance can be deceiving, and that’s the case with Yoshiko Hanabatake in Aho Girl. The title of this anime series actually means ‘Idiot Girl’. Thus, you may already have a good picture of the main character, Yoshiko. Her personality always revolves around her stupidity and silly antics.

Yoshiko is so dense, that she always gets 0 on every test. 

16. Nobita Nobi, Doraemon

Similar to Yoshiko, Nobita also gets 0 on every test! He always gets reprimanded by his teachers in elementary school due to his terrible grades.

Due to his academic issues, Doraemon was sent from the future to help Nobita. Ever since then, Nobita always relies on Doraemon’s gadgets to solve his problems.

17. Yui Hirasawa, K-ON

Another adorable character who’s also an airhead is Yui Hirasawa from K-ON. Since her first appearance in this anime, you can see the silly things she does.

However, her stupidity, absurdness, and innocence make Yui adorable, fun, and one of the most popular characters in K-ON.

18. Yuuko Aioi, Nichijou

Yuuko Aioi is an energetic high school girl who often does silly things. Yuuko is so lazy, especially in doing homework, and often fails tests.

Yuuko loves to make people laugh with her jokes, yet she often fails in delivering the jokes. 

19. Yoshitake Tanaka, Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou

The comedy anime titled Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou has numerous airheads, one of them is Yoshitake Tanaka. He often does ridiculous things that harm his friend, Tadakuni. There are lots of examples of Yoshitake’s absurdities that make Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou fans laugh.

20. Shiina Mashiro, Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo

Perhaps it’s a bit harsh to say that Shiina Mashiro is one of the dumbest characters in anime. But, her gullible nature and anti-social tendency make Shiina a naive character. She does many stupid things -- that make Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo so entertaining for many viewers with Shiina’s naivete that leads to Kanda Sorata having a miserable life.

So, those were the 20 airhead characters in anime who make us laugh with their antics. Of the many characters we’ve mentioned on this list, who’s your favorite? Stick around for more anime and gaming info, and make sure to follow Dunia Games on Facebook and Instagram for the latest updates.
