ANIME VILLAIN POSE
With their sneaky grins and devilish confidence, everyone loves some good anime villain poses.
For what’s a story without a good villain?
Can you imagine anime without enemies like Dio Brando, Frieza, or Griffith for our heroes to fight?
Those series would be nothing!
The creation of a good villain is an art, as we shape the shadowy depths of ourselves into nasty reflections of our heroes (an image of the power one could obtain if they gave into their poison and darkness.)
With the help of these 20 anime villain poses I want to help you craft your characters into the masters of malice you see them as.
