10 Greatest Sword Wielders In Anime

8. Fairy Tail - Erza Scarlet

A woman that has taken a special place in the hearts of millions of fans, Erza Scarlet is an extremely powerful wizard who specializes in using her magic to summon specialized armor and weapons whenever she needs them. A child born alone into slavery, it was the other child slaves who became her first real close friends.

After leading a slave rebellion to save her closest friend Jellal, Erza unlocked her hidden magic potential, using the slave tools around her as weapons to ensure that the uprising would be successful. Erza escaped the Tower of Heaven alone, and washed up on the shores of Fiore, eventually joining up with the magic guild Fairy Tail.

Erza has shown to be one of the more emotional characters in Fairy Tail, being unable to hold her liquor, having no problem with her body being seen by men or women even when naked, and yet feeling most comfortable in a full suit of armor.

Erza often feels like she fails to protect those closest to her when they need her too, often succumbing to her own self deprecating talk. But by using her hundreds of specialized swords and armor sets, Erza can protect entire countries from any evil attempting to harm the innocent, proudly brandishing the mark of her magical guild known as Fairy Tail.
