Is antagonist more interesting than protagonist for you?

Case by case scenario. Anime in general has a lot of dumb antagonists so good breeds are hard to come by.

Of course case by case because it's not always. But there is exist excellent antagonists like Toguro and Makoto Shishio, Hiro Shishigami and the others

There are lots of good antagonists not denying that but maybe that's only the case with shonen anime because they have the time to develop them. But with a lot of fantasy anime they often happen to be dumb and their motive is either world domination or terrorism and they often really really want to do the heroine.

I don't think so. Shonen anime usually tell story in terms of arcs and each arc usually have a separate villain so they take the time to actually develop the villain and explain his motivations. FMAB is an exception to this probably because you can't exactly separate it using arcs but every other popular shonen anime can be. Be it HxH or Naruto or One Piece and I can list lots of good villains from these. Meruem, Zabuza, Crocodile, etc.

Haha.. nice observation there, i didn't realized that they separate the story between arcs, so familiar but i just realized now

I'm serious, it just coincidental haha..
Wan Yu is more beautiful than Chu Lian right?

I don't think so
I find them both the same..the art in that manga wasn't exactly the best
 
I wouldn't say that but some antagonists are rather unique.
I remember Ulquiorra from bleach. His death is rather sad, at the end

Tell me more about him


Well, he kidnapped one of the main protagonists.
Still he never lost himself to evil. If anything, he is rather naive and don't know how to act his part
 
Antagonists are more cool man.
They don't give that crap about how friendship and love are everything in life.

That's how i feel, their character is more deep than they look, especially the twisted one
