Monkey D. Luffy–One Piece
One Piece became the best-selling manga of all time in 2022. So it's no wonder the protagonist of such a seminal game and its tremendously popular anime adaptation belongs to our list.
Luffy was born in Foosha Village, the son of Revolutionary Army captain Monkey D. Dragon and the grandson of Marine hero Monkey D. Garp. Luffy was seven years old when he ate the Gomu Gomu no Mi, which converted his body into rubber. With his identifiable straw hat, blue pants, and red jacket, the Straw Hat Pirates' young leader is a formidable combatant. Luffy is well-known for his tenacity, love of meat, and slogan, "I'm gonna be king of the pirates!"
He wants to locate the famous treasure the late Gol D. Roger left behind and become the Pirate King, enabling him to realize an unknown fantasy he has only informed Shanks, his brothers, and his crew about. He feels that becoming the Pirate King entails having the most outstanding amount of freedom in the world. His honesty and bravery make him a joy to be around, and Luffy is a hero who can always be relied on.
