2. Kirara (Inuyasha)

7. Sadaharu (Gintama)

Originally, Sadaharu is a Dog God serving an honorable mission of protecting the Priestess Sisters, however, he is currently a member of the Yorozuya, with Gintoki, Kagura, and Shinpachi. Putting aside his oversized body, he looks exactly like a normal white-fur dog. Unlike his calm and kawaii appearance, Sadaharu is actually kind of aggressive and destructive, which he likes to bite other people's heads and destroy things. However, deep down, his loyalty to his friends is unconditional, which turns him into one of the best animal characters.

10. Black Hayate (Fullmental Alchemist)

12. Panda (Shirokuma Café)

If you are an animal lover, then Shirokuma Café is the one for you. Panda is one of the kawaii characters appearing in this series. Unlike other anime animals on this list, Panda lives with his true and natural instinct: he is lazy, he loves lying around all day without doing anything, except for eating bamboo sticks. However, his cuteness is enough for him to be one of the best animal characters. Panda being ordinary is actually what makes him really special.

13. Ein (Cowboy Bebop)

Ein (short for Einstein) is definitely one of the smartest animal characters on this list. Outside, he is just a normal Pembroke Welsh Corgi; but inside, he is an exceptionally intelligent "data dog" who is capable of doing specialized tasks such as hacking into complex systems, communicating with other animals, or even driving cars...etc. His badassery and his kawaii appearance easily make him not only a beloved anime animal but also one of the most favorite anime characters.

14. Guts (Kill La Kill) - one of the most kawaii anime animals

Another not - so - special animal character on this list. Basically, he is just a pet pug of the Mankanshoku family with no unique ability or power, however, it's his kawaii appearance that makes him a beloved anime animal. His name - Guts, is a pun from his eating habit as Mataro mentioned "He eats with a lot of gusto". Guts is seen wearing a small hoodie all the time, covering his ears and his laughable face. He is also capable of standing on his two legs and walking like a normal person.

16. Tony Tony Chopper  (One Piece)

Tony Tony Chopper, or you can call him by the name "Cotton Candy Lover" Chopper, is a cute anime animal from the popular series "One Piece". His kawaii name and appearance seem not to fit into a pirate ship, however, no one can replace his role in the Straw Hat Pirates as a dedicated and skilled doctor. His unique look is due to a Devil Fruit named "Hito Hito no Mi", which allows him to turn into a reindeer/human hybrid. This weird combination surprisingly helps Tony Tony Chopper to be one of the most kawaii anime animals ever.
