Heroes and villains in your favorite anime shows are capable of all kinds of great feats. Manipulating water is a common trait which is incredibly cool to witness. 

Here's a list of 19 characters that may be chilling out at a poolside near you!

1. Juvia Lockser From Fairy Tail

Juvia Lockser possesses some of the most impressive water manipulation abilities. She's capable of controlling large quantities of water, including rain which makes her quite formidable. 

Her water slicer attack is one of her trademark spells, which Fairy Tail fans are incredibly fond of.

 

2. Tier Harribel From Bleach

Tier is an Arrancar and ruler of the Hueco Mundo, which means she's someone not to be messed with. She is not only a master swordswoman but is incredibly fast as well. 

When she utilizes her Resurrección, she's able to unleash and manipulate water from the blade's gill markings.

3. Kisame Hoshigaki From Naruto

Kisame is intimidating and incredibly brutal when dealing with his opponents. He is a powerful shinobi and resembles a shark. His skills are vast and varied, including some impressive Water Release techniques which can generate large quantities of water. 

But it doesn't end there; he can also create water clones which turn the odds of battle to his advantage.

4. Tsukiumi From Sekirei

We can't have a list of anime characters with water abilities without including one with a tsundere personality. 

The blonde Tsukiumi is incredibly short-tempered, prideful and knows how to stand her ground. Her Yamata no Orochi, or Eight Forked Serpent attack, will have her antagonists wetting themselves, quite literally.

5. Takeshi Yamamoto From Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Takeshi Yamamoto is a friendly and likable high-school teenager. He is loyal to his friends and will do whatever it takes, to protect them from any danger. 

Initially in the series, Takeshi uses a bat as his main weapon. But later on, he acquires the 'Vongola Rain Swallow' and 'Vongola Rain Akita', which not only look incredibly cool, but make for formidable water-based weapons.

6. Isaac McDougal From Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

As a military man proficient in water-based alchemy, Isaac McDougal, turns out to be a headache for the Elric brothers. 

He is also referred to as "Isaac the Freezer" because he can create large amounts of ice by activating a transmutation circle. Furthermore, he can freeze any source of water which is in close proximity to him.

7. Umi Ryuuzaki From Magic Knight Rayearth

There's no better way to initiate anime water attacks than by the use of magic. The beautiful and elegant Umi Ryuuzaki has some snazzy water-based spells which are visually impressive. 

Spells that can conjure up a water dragon or a whirlwind of water are a site to behold.

8. Sailor Mercury From Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon

Anime water attacks are more interesting when they're varied. Fortunately, Sailor Mercury has some slick spray attacks and the incredibly cool Shine Aqua Illusion in which she fires a powerful blast of water. 

But it's the Mercury Aqua Rhapsody that is the icing on the cake, when she plays a water-based harp and fires her most powerful water blast at her enemies.

9. Jinbei From One Piece

One Piece has such incredibly interesting characters that it's not surprising it's such a successful anime and manga series. 

Jinbei is someone that definitely stands out, resembling a cross between a sumo wrestler, yakuza henchman, and blue-colored whale-shark. As a master of Fishman Karate, he is able to utilize water as a weapon and attack his enemies from a distance.

10. Lala-Ru From Now and Then, Here and There

She's a pacifist, reserved, and around a thousand years old. But she certainly doesn't look her age. 

Lala-Ru owns a pendant which she uses to manipulate water. In fact, she can flood entire parts of the world with water which just adds to her allure.

11. Yukihina From Code:Breaker

The androgynous-looking Yukihina is interesting as far as anime water-manipulating characters are concerned. A bit of a gender-bender occurs when he's in his Lost Form. However, it's his Form of Waters special powers that steal the show. 

Apart from being able to form water in any shape of form, he is also able to create an Aqua Sword which can cut through any material.

12. Patie From Zatch Bell!

It's always better to have an even balance of offensive and defensive spells. Patie may be small and cute, but she has sussed out how to be effective in battle. 

Her 'Akur' spell sprays water from her hand, while her 'Ashield' spell forms a shield which can protect her from all kinds of attacks.

13. Jack Simon From Darker than Black

Cryokinesis is damn cool, especially when the practitioner is a calm and collected agent like November 11. He is capable of shaping water into projectiles, freezing them, and firing them accurately at the enemy.

14. Yoshino From Date A Live

Many anime characters use their water manipulation abilities for offensive purposes. This is not the case with Yoshino, who is able to utilize water for her self-defense. 

She uses Zadkiel, which is an angelic puppet capable of absorbing water from the air or ground.

Social outcasts play a prominent role in many anime shows, over the years. Kiyoshi is a high school student who just doesn't fit in, and has developed a hatred for humanity.

Kurumi is very distinctive, thanks to her long blue locks. She also lives in a fashion store and loves fashion, which could be the reason for her stylish looks. When she transforms into her Cure Marine form, she has the power to control water but also purification.

18. Kinuho Wannai From A Certain Scientific Railgun

Kinuho loves to hang out with her close friend, Awatsuki Maaya. In fact, these two are virtually inseparable, and team up during their battles. She's an esper and a Level 3 Hydro Hand, which allows her to manipulate small quantities of water.

 

19. Esdeath From Akame ga Kill!

There are edgy anime characters, and then there are those that are completely unhinged. Esdeath is definitely a combination of the two. She has an over the top sadistic streak while still remaining likable. With her powerful Teigu she's able to create and manipulate ice, and also enjoys freezing people to death.
