12. Crocodile

Anime: One Piece

Crocodile just oozes badassery and looks like the perfect blend between an old-school pirate and the more modern criminal.

He has this Mafioso aesthetic with his giant coat and a cigar so big it attacks your lungs (yes you, the viewer).

But then he reveals a giant golden hook hand, and you’re right back among the pirates.

The dude is iconic in the show, being how long he has remained somewhat relevant and the fact that he was the first to hand Luffy a giant L.
