15 Tallest Anime Characters, Ranked

Some anime characters tower over skylines, while others simply make every room feel smaller the moment they arrive. Official sources—SBS and Vivre Card data for ‘One Piece’, Pokédex listings for ‘Pokémon’, guidebooks and encyclopedias for ‘Attack on Titan’ and ‘Naruto’, and studio notes for the animated ‘Godzilla’ films—provide concrete heights for many of the biggest figures on screen.

Below is a countdown based on stated or widely accepted canonical measurements. Each entry lists the character’s height, origin series, and role-relevant facts that explain how their size is presented and used within their stories.

15. Black Maria

Black Maria from ‘One Piece’ is listed at 8.20 m (820 cm). She serves as a Tobiroppo under Kaidō during the Onigashima conflict and operates out of the Pleasure Hall within the Beasts Pirates’ stronghold. Her height is explicitly documented in character materials tied to the Wano Country arc.

She ate the ‘Kumo Kumo no Mi, Model: Rosamygale grauvogeli’ (Ancient Zoan), which grants hybrid and full-spider transformations modeled on an extinct species. The ability set includes webbing and limb growth that scale naturally with her already unusual human height in ‘One Piece’.

14. Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom)

Charlotte Linlin in ‘One Piece’ stands at 8.80 m (880 cm). She is the former Emperor who rules Totto Land and commands the Big Mom Pirates, with extensive territory and political arrangements across the New World.

Her ‘Soru Soru no Mi’ (Soul-Soul Fruit) allows the extraction and manipulation of human lifespans to animate homies such as Prometheus, Zeus, and Napoleon. The series presents her size alongside heavy armor, massive weaponry, and ship-crushing feats that reflect the documented 880 cm stature.

13. Diane

Diane from ‘The Seven Deadly Sins’ measures 9.15 m (915 cm) in her giant form. She belongs to the Giant Clan and is formally introduced as the Sin of Envy bearing the serpent symbol.

Her specialty is Creation, an earth-manipulation technique the Giant Clan uses for large-scale terrain control and weapon forging. Databooks also note a human-sized form for specific story beats, but the cited figure refers to her standard giant physiology in ‘The Seven Deadly Sins’.

12. Alolan Exeggutor

Alolan Exeggutor in the ‘Pokémon’ anime is listed at 10.9 m. This regional form results from Alola’s strong sunlight, which triggers a different evolutionary pathway from the Kantonian species.

In the anime and games, the towering neck changes reach and attack angles for moves and gags alike. The 10.9 m stat is standardized across official Pokédex materials, keeping its scale consistent with other large species in ‘Pokémon’.

11. Shirahoshi

Princess Shirahoshi from ‘One Piece’ is recorded at 11.87 m. As a giant mermaid and the youngest child of King Neptune and Queen Otohime, her measurements reflect head-to-tail body length typical for her lineage on Fish-Man Island.

She is identified in-story as the current Poseidon, one of the Ancient Weapons capable of commanding Sea Kings. Materials connected to Fish-Man Island consistently reference her size when depicting palace halls, escorts, and transport arrangements in ‘One Piece’.

10. Wailord

Wailord is listed at 14.5 m in ‘Pokémon’. The figure appears in official Pokédex entries and is treated functionally as body length for its whale-like morphology.

Episodes and guide text use that measurement to frame its buoyancy, carrying capacity, and large-area water moves such as Water Spout. The standardized height/length value keeps Wailord among the largest non-special-form marine species in ‘Pokémon’.

9. Gamabunta

Gamabunta from ‘Naruto’ is documented at 17 m in Part II references. He is the chief toad of Mount Myōboku and a primary summon contracted by shinobi including Jiraiya and Naruto Uzumaki.

His techniques include oil projectiles that pair with Fire Release and a massive tantō used in close quarters. Summoning contracts specify transport and battlefield entry conditions scaled to his 17 m body, which ‘Naruto’ depicts alongside human fighters and other giant summons.

8. Eternatus

Eternatus in ‘Pokémon’ is listed at 20.0 m in its standard form. The character is central to the Galar region’s story and the energy behind the Dynamax phenomenon.

While an Eternamax depiction exists in game data at a larger scale, the 20.0 m figure is the canonical baseline used for standard appearances. The anime and supporting materials tie its size to energy emissions and containment procedures within ‘Pokémon’.

7. Wall Titans

In ‘Attack on Titan’, the Wall Titans are approximately the same height as the Walls themselves—about 50 m. Canon sources describe variability between individuals but keep them within that benchmark relative to Wall Maria, Rose, and Sina.

They possess hardening capabilities and emit intense heat and steam upon activation. The setting’s geography, gate dimensions, and fortification plans are explicitly scaled to the ~50 m profile throughout ‘Attack on Titan’.

6. Colossal Titan

The Colossal (Colossus) Titan in ‘Attack on Titan’ is officially 60 m. The power is first associated with Bertholdt Hoover and later with Armin Arlert after a transfer.

Its defining traits include massive transformation shockwaves and continuous steam emission that hinder climbers. Military manuals and in-universe briefings consistently use the 60 m measurement when planning defenses and equipment deployment in ‘Attack on Titan’.

5. Little Oars Jr.

Little Oars Jr. from ‘One Piece’ is recorded at 60 m. Materials classify him as a descendant of the ancient giant Oars, placing him far above standard giants in height.

During the Paramount War, ship sizes, battlements, and cannon emplacements are framed against his 60 m scale. Visual references and databook updates align on this figure across ‘One Piece’ sources.

4. Oars

Oars in ‘One Piece’ is listed at 67 m. Revived on Thriller Bark, he is categorized as an ancient giant with distinct cranial horns and proportions that differ from modern giants.

Story materials contrast his measurements with Little Oars Jr., establishing a 7 m difference. Maps, castle interiors, and rigging in the Thriller Bark arc are staged explicitly around Oars’s 67 m height in ‘One Piece’.

3. Rod Reiss (Abnormal Titan)

Rod Reiss’s Abnormal Titan in ‘Attack on Titan’ measures roughly 120 m in total body length. Owing to its misshapen, crawling posture, the height at the withers is about 40 m, but the overall body spans the larger figure.

Its heat output, constant shedding, and unstable gait are treated as environmental hazards for soldiers and civilians. Battle plans in ‘Attack on Titan’ cite artillery angles and approach paths based on the ~120 m profile.

2. Sanjuan Wolf

Sanjuan Wolf from ‘One Piece’ is documented as at least 180 m. Vivre Card notes and related materials describe him as the largest known individual, with the qualifier indicating a minimum rather than a capped value.

He ate the ‘Deka Deka no Mi’, which enlarges his body to extraordinary dimensions. Naval fortifications, harbor depths, and siege lines at Marineford are charted with his size in mind throughout ‘One Piece’ references.

1. Godzilla Earth

Godzilla Earth in the animated ‘Godzilla’ trilogy is recorded at approximately 300 m. Studio summaries and franchise encyclopedias treat this incarnation as one of the largest versions of the character across media.

Its biomass, electromagnetic properties, and natural armor are documented as city-scale benchmarks, informing how the films position human technology, allied kaiju, and terrain. The production notes use the ~300 m figure for modeling and shot composition throughout the ‘Godzilla’ trilogy.
