20 Best Libra Anime Characters Ranked By Popularity
If you are searching for your favorite anime character sign on the web, you are probably not alone in your quest. Several fans have searched for anime character birthdays to celebrate them. Another reason is also to see if their signs are compatible with themselves.
This article will focus on popular anime characters who fall under the Libra sign. Accordingly, Libras are usually extroverted and friendly. The scale mainly represents them. Hence, a Libra is generally concerned with maintaining balance. They are some of the most intelligent and charming individuals out there.
Being extroverted seems to be a lot of main Shonen anime character energy. But there’s much more than being friendly when it comes to being a Libra. So let’s see if these 20 popular anime Libra’s fit the bill of the Libra personality.
20. Sanae Furukawa – Clannad
Birthday: October 5
She may not be a lead character, but it seems like she has most of the main attributes of a Libra. Sanae is portrayed as a friendly mother who tries to give the right advice to her daughter. She also gets a little playful when she’s drunk.
In Clannad, Sanae is the wife of Akio Furukawa and runs a bakery with him. She is also the loving, supportive mother of the lead girl, Nagisa. In the After Story, she takes on a larger role as someone who advises both her daughter and son-in-law. After Nagisa’s death, she and her husband took care of Ushio Okazaki while Tomoya was unable.
19. Kyoko Kirigiri – DanganRonpa
Birthday: October 6
She may not be a ray of sunshine that her sign is known for, but Kirigiri has a strong sense of justice, another solid defining trait of the sign. If it weren’t clear enough, fans would be able to know that she is in constant search of the truth due to her title in the first series, Super High School Level Detective.
In the first anime series and game, Kyoko is a student in Hope’s Peak Academy and becomes a participant in the Killing School Life. In the series, students were taken to a facility and were made to murder each other and then decide among themselves who the culprit was. As her talent, Ultimate Detective, she is very good at analyzing the clues during the trials. It is also important to her to figure out the motives of the murderer.
18. Minako Aino – Sailor Moon
Birthday: October 22
She definitely has your typical Libra’s cheerful and friendly energy, but sadly not much else. Minako is also the guardian of the planet Venus, the same planet as the Libra. However, Minako failed to get any traits from the planet and her sign.
Minako or Sailor V is the incarnation of Sailor Venus. She is usually silly and ditzy throughout the series, only being shown to be serious at certain times. She is a lot like Usagi in several ways, even being an academic underachiever. The two are even known for being partners for make-up exams.
17. Erwin Smith – Attack on Titan
Birthday: October 14
Erwin Smith knows how to manage his time and his people, which is probably why he was made captain. As a Libra, he’s perhaps the best man for the job. His charisma inspires many troops to follow his command to their deaths.
Erwin served as the 12th commander of the Survey Corps till his death. Erwin cares deeply for his subordinates but will not hesitate to sacrifice them if it’s for the good for humanity. Since his youth, he never accepted “facts” at face value and would always inquire further. When he became a member of the Survey Corps, he quickly became a squad leader of his talent. He even developed the Long-Distance Enemy Scouting Formation for the Corps to minimize casualties during scouting missions.
16. Emilia – RE: Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
Birthday: September 23
The caring nature of a Libra shines through with Emilia. Emilia is the half-elf heroine of the anime RE:Zero kara Jaimimeru Isekai Seikatsu. She is also one of the candidates to become the King of the Dragon Kingdom in the series. Since she debuted at the start of the series, she easily became one of the story’s most important characters.
15. Madoka Kaname -Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Birthday: October 3
Maybe not the best example of a Libra out there. Madoka is one of the two main characters of the anime Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Even her name is in the title. Madoka starts off as an ordinary schoolgirl who considers herself not unique. However, this all changes when she accepts a contract to be a magical girl from a weird mystical creature named Kyuubi.
While she starts as a starry-eyed magical girl, her experience battling alongside another magical girl against monsters will change her views about the new job she has.
14. Misaki Ayuzawa – Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama!
Birthday: September 29
There seem to be two sides to her personality, but both are highly charismatic and very Libra. As the President of Seika High School, Misaki is popular among the girl population and manages to lead the school despite the school being dominantly male. But, on the other hand, Misaki is her own type of charming in a maid café with her male customers.
Misaki is known as the Demon President in school, but she hides a secret from her schoolmates. The president secretly works as a maid in a maid café called Maid Latte. Unfortunately, her secret might be revealed by the school’s resident heartthrob Takumi Usui who runs into her in her maid uniform.
13. Kotoko Aihara – Itazura Na Kiss
Birthday: September 28
You wouldn’t think Kotoko is a Libra with how messy her life is. Kotoko probably also isn’t the most intelligent character out there, but she was charming enough to win the heart of her crush, Naoki Irie.
Kotoko is the star of an old anime and manga titled Itazura na Kiss. The series revolves around the love life of Kotoko. In the series, she and her father are struck with bad luck as their newly constructed house caved in. However, Kotoko might consider it lucky because she gets to move into the Irie household and get Naoki’s attention.
12. Maximillion Pegasus – Yu-Gi-Oh!
Birthday: October 8
Fans would probably think the Libra would be the one wielding the Millennium Scale, but one of the popular Libras in the series is the wielder of the Millennium Eye. To be president of Industrial Illusions is a big deal in the anime. His influence and charms exist in another sequel to the series. The incredible wit, charm, and intelligence is fitting for a Libra.
As mentioned before, Pegasus is the president of the same company that created and produced the Duel Monsters card game. Before the start of the series, he wanted to pursue art. However, a trip to Egypt got him obsessed with recreating an ancient game played by the Egyptians. He was a significant antagonist during the Duelist Kingdom but became an ally of the heroes later on.
11. Silica/Ayano Keiko – Sword Art Online
Birthday: October 4
Sword Art Online is often credited for popularizing the isekai genre of anime, so it’s no surprise that the characters, even though they are minor supporting characters, end up on a popularity list. Ayano is known as Silica in the online game Sword Art Online. She levels up to one of the main characters in a spinoff but returns to becoming a recurring supporting character in the series. She is one of the 10,000 players who got trapped in the game.
10. Tomoyo Sakagami – Clannad
Birthday: October 14
She lacks the usual energy of your typical Libra, but everything else about Tomoyo seems to be on point with her sign. She’s one of the major girls in the anime Clannad and even one of the possible routes the male protagonist can go for in the game. She has a reputation for being strong enough to single handedly beat delinquents. Since Tomoyo was a fan favorite in the game, she was given a spinoff in the anime as the girlfriend and future wife of Tomoya if he didn’t choose Nagisa.
9. Xerxes Break – Pandora Hearts
Birthday: September 30
He doesn’t seem like your typical Libra. Xerxes, also referred to as Mad Hatter, was a character in Pandora Hearts. In the series, he was a representative of Pandora. It was Xerxes who organized the efforts made to help Oz’s escape from the Abyss. He also serves as a sort of mentor figure to the younger Pandora characters.
8. Gintoki Sakata – Gintama
Birthday: October 10
Another character that doesn’t really fit the Libra personality type. However, given the type of anime Gintama is, it’s a no-brainer that most characters would take up a more satirical personality.
Gin is the founding member and president of the Yorozuya. He is also a highly-skilled samurai who fought in the Joui War. During his prime in the war, he was nicknamed Shiroyasha because of his skills with his sword and his primarily white clothing and hair color.
7. Yu Nishinoya – Haikyuu!!
Birthday: October 10
In a way, he is a Libra. He has the energy of one, if not too much. Unfortunately, this energy often tends to attract unwanted attention. While he isn’t the smartest player on the team, he does display high EQ, often being able to read the room and be considerate of the feelings of his teammates and opponents.
Yu was a student of Karasuno High School and served as the volleyball team libero. He earned the nickname Karasuno’s Guardian Deity by his teammates due to his outstanding skills. However, unlike his other teammates, Yu had decided to quit volleyball after high school so he could travel the world.
6. Trafalgar D. Water Law – One Piece
Birthday: October 6
Trafalgar is a pirate captain and doctor of the Heart Pirates. He is one of the pirates of the Worst Generation. During the One Piece time skip, he becomes one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but this position was eventually revoked once he allied himself with Luffy.
5. Suzuha Amane – Steins Gate
Birthday: September 27
Looking at her personality, maybe a Gemini would fit her more. Suzuha was a part-time employee of Rintaro’s landlord, Yuga Tennouji. She seemed like an ordinary character who enjoyed riding her bicycle at the start of the series. However, she seems to have a dislike towards Kurisu.
She reveals herself as a time traveler who belongs to the year 2036. She traveled to the past to stop SERN and prevent the creation of the Time Machine. More about her history and her parents are revealed later in the story.
4. Iruma Suzuki – Mairimashita! Iruma-Kun
Birthday: October 4
While he might not be likable to humans, he seems to be a popular catch among demons. So, that might be the works of your typical Libra charm. Iruma is the title and main character for the anime Mairimashita! Iruma-kun. At the start of the anime, Iruma is aged 15 and an ordinary human being who was sold to a demon. He lives in the demon world and attends Baby’s Demon School. However, Iruma has to hide the fact that he is a human, or else he might get eaten by the demons.
Before the start of the series, Iruma lived with his parents. His parents took advantage of Iruma’s shy and gentle nature to work for them. Iruma was tasked with several chores and odd jobs to provide for the family. His parents’ negligence towards him allowed him to develop “Extreme Appetite” and other high survival-like abilities.
3. Kirito/ Kirigaya Kazuto – Sword Art Online
Birthday: October 7
If having his own harem of girls is not proof of his Libra charm taking effect, then I don’t know what is. Kirito is the main protagonist of the isekai anime Sword Art Online. Kirito is one of the chosen beta testers to try out the SAO, a new Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game for NerveGear. Unfortunately for him, about 10,000 players, including himself, got trapped in the game.
To battle the discrimination the beta testers received in the game, he took the role of a Beater and a Clearer. At one point in the game, he joins Moonlit Black Cats but returns to being a solo player due to the death of some of the guild members due to an error. He even earned the nickname Black Swordsman because his outfit is primarily black, and his choice of weapon is a sword.
2. Eijiro Kirishima – My Hero Academia
Birthday: October 16
Aside from his energy, not much about Eijiro screams Libra. Eijiro is the Sturdy Hero: Red Riot. He is one of the first-year students at U.A. High School and is known for being a close friend of Katsuki Bakugo. Eijiro’s hero name is an homage to the hero Crimson Riot, a hero the character admires due to their similar quirks.
Before attending U.A., Eijiro and Mina were both students at Mustafa Private Middle School. When they were in middle school, he got inspired by Mina’s heroism and decided to become a pro-hero.
1. Naruto Uzumaki– Naruto
Birthday: October 10
It’s not too clear in his younger years, but Naruto slowly adopts to his sign when he gets older. Naruto starts out loud and is borderline annoying in Naruto. However, he develops into a high charisma Hokage by the time he hits adulthood.
At the time of Naruto’s birth, he became a jinchuriki and housed the Nine-Tails. This caused him to be shunned in Konoha. However, once he became a full-fledged shinobi, he worked hard to gain the village’s approval and eventually became Hokage. In the new era, Naruto fulfilled his dream, married Hinata, and had two kids with her.
