Lain vs Haruhi

Looking back on the Stronger character in anime in term of strength where Haruhi being a goddess made her the [nearly] unanimous winner, a new contender came to mind:

Lain Iwakura from Serial Experiments Lain: "she has absolute power over everyone's mind and over reality itself."




Haruhi Suzumiya from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: "she has an outstanding power to change the environment around her as she pleases"




Obviously this is a futile battle involving two different universes, but even if this turns out to be a popularity contest, I have confidence Lain will put up a fight. I'm really hoping this can be a fun topic over two amazing characters.

I laughed



Sorry, my good man. But fights are always serious business.





On topic. If Lain has control over reality, Haruhi has control over everything, even existance.

Based on which is more heavier and has more impact, i'd say Haruhi wins this one.

Haruhi will kill you all.

Oh look, spoilers all over the place again.

haruhi.

call me a haruhitard, but you can't deny that the first season was amazing

I loved the Lain series, but ultimately I gotta give it to the icon (once again) because I am a fanboy and admit this. Haruhi's personality is a lot more fun and active. Now if you were putting the actual shows against each other that would be a fair bit harder for me.

LOL you all really think Haruhi the strongest anime character Haruhi all ready lost to Lain

Pwned. That was epic.

Not as active as I hoped, but it is a very specific topic, so it's a reasonable turnout.

I was quoting wikipedia. Laughter is the right response.



I stand corrected.


Whats the difference? Do things that exist not exist within reality? LOL, not surprising this came up seeing as how a major theme to Serial Experiments Lain is metaphysics.


Nice links Setsuna F Seiei.

PLEASE!Is this even a question?Haruhi RULEZ EVERYTHING.

agreed

Haruhi.

call me a haruhitard, but i cannot deny that i love all the series

OT : how can you stand a chance against a girl that have control over everything

Other bitch cause Haruhi is pretty much like John Cena.

No question there: LAIN. Always. <3

Listen, what I say goes. If you say otherwise you're wrong, case closed.

Haruhi is the winner.

U can call me going with the crowd but i ain't changing my vote: Haruhi will Rule her with one hand tied behind her back.

Haruhi, her power is maximum.

How the heck is Haruhi winning!?

Have you even SEEN Lain!? ;-;

Yes but to someone who can mind control and someone who can bend or create a new universe I pick the creator anyday.

This is a horrible idea since Haruhi will win because of popularity since people are voting based on who they like or who they know.

TL;DR: Fuck you Haruhi fanboys.
