17. Alvida
Many of you who have watched one piece, may also not remember this character and that is completely okay, because she was there for a very short period of time, and she didn’t have any notable effect on the storyline of the show. Alvida was the first female pirate that we get to see in the show, and their crew of hers was surely very much done with her.

20. Rock Lee
Yes, we know we will face a lot of criticism for including this character on the list, and yes Rock Lee is one of the best characters in the entire Naruto series, however, when compared to all the other character designs he may be the only bad looking guy in the entire series. His round face, with that weird haircut, round eyes, and as we all know his bushy brows have been something that was absolutely disliked by Sakura since the first few episodes only.
21. Hand Demon
Demon slayer, anime has already been praised by critics for having some of the best-written and most beautifully designed and animated characters. The heroes or as we may say the demon slayers are absolutely gorgeous and along with the demons are gorgeous too and that has been a very unique feature of this anime.
As we all know the fan base of this anime is also quite huge, however, everything changes when the hand demon comes in, he is weird looking and something that we see in the first few episodes only. This demon has surely been a great opponent and someone, whom almost everyone one of us disliked for his acts.
22. Dadan
Yes, we know Dadan is again one of the most beautifully written characters from the entire One-Piece universe. However, we still can’t ignore the fact that Dadan though being a mountain bandit, could have been presented to us in a better-designed way. Dadan though being like a motherly figure to Luffy since a very young age is just huge when it comes to a woman and the way her face looks and is shaped, it’s surely made most of us a bit uncomfortable at the stating of the anime.

23. Suika
We actually didn’t want to mention this character’s name here, because according to almost all dr stone fans out there, Suika is one of the cutest characters in the entire anime. However something about Suika is, we don’t get to see her face as she always wears that watermelon helmet and that’s one of the main reasons, we don’t consider her ugly.
If she was a character who didn’t use to wear a helmet, then we don’t know how the story may have turned out, but surely the fans of the anime won’t be a big fans of her. She has got this weird face, which is completely puffed up, and has got some wrinkles that make her look much older than she actually is.
24. Wapol
As we move towards the end of the list, here we are again with another One-Piece character, whom almost none of us like. Wapol is basically a side character who served as the villain in a small arc of the show. He has got some devil fruit powers, which most people don’t pay much attention to, and overall he is just ugly, with his weird face. His mouth is made out of some other material, such as tin or steel and overall, he just looks like a comic character, though being negative in reality.
25. Ryuk
Now the last one on the list is none other than Ryuk from one of the most famous animes of all time, Death Note. Ryuk is basically a Shinigami, for those who don’t know anything about him. However, looks of his are so like a devil or some other supernatural being, that it creeps us out. Overall, we can’t consider him handsome in any sense, and he is just ugly for all those who don’t know anything about him. However, Ryuk as we all know is one of the best characters in the entire anime universe.
