In ‘Moonlight Mile,’ ‘Robbie’ leaves an unforgettable impression โ perhaps his passion to create peaceful relations between nations with his innocence is what has worked so well for him.
Seventh is ‘Robby’s’ adorable interaction partner from the previous entry, ‘Robbie’ โ now who could ignore his good-spirited best friend companion Goro in ‘Moonlight Mile’?
Eighth on the list is anime fan favorite ‘Free’ from ‘Ayashimon.’ His perfect, out of control humorous and energetic demeanor still roars in our ears.
The ninth worthy mention is ‘Tomozaki’ the energetic yet talented drummer and eccentric โ along with an explosion of humorous reaction throughout anime ‘The Misfit at Demon King Academy.’
Taking last but not least place, no one would expect seeing ‘Ogasawara Saku’ stepping onto the screen and capture the hearts of countless fans in ‘Call of the Night.’ With a blend of naivety, unmatched passion, and sweet lyrics; Saku effectively sealed off a number 10 spot among the top electrifying anime sidekicks. These ten picks remind us why anime sidekicks always steal the show โ filled with endless interactions and never cease to amaze us.
