Well, to my knowledge, Medaka from Medaka Box wins because she's the protagonist, literally.

I have to go with Ichigo or Sasuke. Originally I would have said Naruto but after going through the series again and aside from obvious instances like his fight with Pain(the later part anyway along with the Six Tails) I think it happened less than I originally thought. Which is surprising since he has an actual plot device in him.

Ichigo was killed(or at least nearly killed in one instance) by Ulquiorra twice and was saved by plot both times. Now, Grimmjow having him revived makes sense, but it's still plot. The worst offender is the second time where Ichigo is outright stomped by Ulquiorra and then he immediately revives as VL and starts destroying him. It was completely out of nowhere(unless I missed the hints).

Now for Sasuke, I actually believe that he had more plot armor than Naruto. He was saved several times against Bee, and one of those times he had his chest blown open and the organs destroyed. Then immediately after that he charges in and assaults the Kage Summit and is saved by Obito from Jinton and if we want to be technical him suddenly being able to use Susanoo against the Raikage, although it makes sense why he could use it so I'm hesitant to include that one.

There are other examples but I think those will be enough to at least show why I believe those two have more plot armor than the rest. No hate to either character though.

Naruto characters have the worst plot armor, they always survive in the unlikeliest of chanes.

Zangetsu, when Ichigo fought him to unlock his hollow mask, told Ichigo that if he dies he'll take over the body as his own. So no, Ichigo going into VL wasn't out of nowhere.

@ovy7: That's fair, I remember him saying something along the lines that if he became too weak he'd take over so I guess that helps explain it. Still came off as heavy plot armor to me though, maybe it's just how the scene played out coupled with my salt for Ulquiorra losing lol.

Ichigo and Naruto don't really have much Plot they're just tough af and have "inner monsters" to save them. Sasuke had far more plot than Naruto.

Natsu is the most plot helped character, he literally uses the power of friendship to overpower time hax.

Ichigo from the anime I’ve watched

he died twice on the same, only to be resurrected each time.

Not to mention, Ichigo should definitely have died fighting Kenpachi or byakuya, but thank god for that plot armour

Sasuke didn’t really have THAT much plot armor. Karin and Jūgo healing hIm was kinda to be expected.

Tho that instance with jinton was legit plot.

Yup. That was Kira Yamato from Gundam Seed. I am a massive fan of the gundam franchise but that was some the biggest bullshit I had ever seen at the time and probably still is now. The whole fight between Kira and Shin just dumb

Here is a video that breaks it down. You might find it interesting. Skip to 12:24 for nuke part

Kira Yamato. Him surviving that explosion of the Freedom is bullshit. That video above actually does a good job explaining why it's BS, and even does a funny way of explaining how the in verse explanation is just....cringy

Natsu has an ANNOYING amount of plot armor and it's called "the power of friendship" and it makes me mad every time he says the word "friends" or defeats an adversary he should never be able to defeat all because of "friends" (Talking about Zeref and Acnologia). Erza is also really terrible how do you beat Kyoko if all your senses are gone and Irene would've clapped her like she's nothing realistically. Basically any Fairy Tail character and any character in the anime that one day suddenly decides they'll fight for justice automatically unlocks the plot armor and is invincible. The worst instance was the fight with Acnologia those dragon slayers should never be able to TOUCH Acnologia in the slightest, it should've been a slaughter and a spite in favor of Acnologia but unfortunately no villain can pierce the armor of friendship and no villain can defend against it. With the amount of plot armor FT characters have I wouldn't be surprised to see Frieza try to kill them but get one shot by Natsu all because he "hurt his friends", good characters are basically immortal and defy logic in FT.

Medaka probably... I recall she has literal plot armor as a form of hax. Can't remember though.

I consider the power of friendship to be plot armor. That would make Naruto and Natsu the top contenders.

Luffy should have the most votes. The guy oozes plot armour, so does his entire straw hats.

It baffles how not a manga about pirates has such little deaths

Sasuke's plot armor is ridiculous.

His fight with Deidara? I mean come on. Surviving both C4 and C0 genuinely pissed me off.

@heroesgold: That's the problem, the amount of times he has died and came back from the dead is unforgivable plot armor.

Saitama? How did Saitama make it here? Plot armor happens when characters get past stuff they shouldn't be able to due to luck, deus ex machina, or other bullshit plot devices because they're supposed to stay alive. Saitama's very premise is that no one in that verse can do shit to him. The character who does actually have plot armor in OPM is King.

The answer is pretty much subjective but think the character with the lamest plot armor out of them is Natsu.

Saitama doesn't have a plot armor, his enemies are nothing to him and he's never in danger.

Probably Natsu.

The ones with the least Plot Armor are Saitama, Alucard, and surprisingly Ichigo as the guy gets multiple powerups but still gets stomped by random new characters.

The amount of plot armour and ass pulls possessed by Ichigo and Natsu is unrivalled.
