RELATED: The Best Anime Series You Can Stream On HBO Max So, let’s take a look at some of the most well-known characters in popular anime/manga that would be considered “mascots” of their series, and talk about what makes them so shockingly strong. 8 Bleach: Kaizo “Kon” Konpaku Kon, AKA Kaizo Konpaku, is absolutely worthy of being called the “mascot” character of Bleach.
