Protagonists are always judged by their appearance, most of the time, white-haired protagonists are always overrated and expectations under them are high. Fortunately on many occasions, expectations are met.
In others, expectations are only in the realm of the imagination and are totally frustrated by a bad protagonist. But it's no use worrying, these cases are a minority. Most anime have protagonists that stand out, but for this type they manage to stand out. After all, as the legend says “if you have white hair, you are powerful”.
And this becomes true many times over through various characters. Overpower that the anime universe has. So to satisfy some of this curiosity, this is an exclusive list of anime with white-haired protagonists. So let's get down to business.

Kiznaiver
Katsuhira Agata is a quiet and reserved teenager whose feelings have disappeared. Thus, his behavior makes Katsuhira an easy target for bullies, who exploit him and exchange money.
However, one day Katsuhira, her childhood friend and four other teenagers are kidnapped and forced to join the Kizuna System. Those who participate are connected through pain: if one member is injured, the others will feel an equal amount of agony.
These individuals must become guinea pigs for an incomplete system designed to achieve world peace. With their fates literally linked, they must expose their true selves to each other, or risk failing far more than just the Kizuna System.
Kiznaiver's comments
Opening the list with one of the anime with the most different proposal that exists. Few clichés are used in this anime and the plot always manages to surprise the audience. The protagonist may not be one of the most charismatic, but he has his big share in the plot. In addition to having a very good romance to see.
Tokyo ghoul
Tokyo has become a cruel and merciless city - a place where evil creatures called "ghouls" exist alongside humans. The citizens of this once great metropolis live in constant fear of these bloodthirsty savages and their thirst for human flesh.
Tokyo Ghoul follows Ken Kaneki, a shy and studious college student, who is quickly attracted to Rize Kamishiro, an avid reader like himself. However, Rize isn't quite who she seems, and this encounter throws Kaneki into the dark depths of the inhuman world of ghouls.
Tokyo Ghoul Reviews
There's a little problem with this anime. He doesn't start from the beginning with white hair. Unfortunately, he only turns white hair towards the end of the season, but it's worth the wait until that happens, because the scene is one of the most epic there is. And after this event he becomes very strong and badass.
Dungeon ni deai
Life in the bustling city of Orario is never dull, especially for Bell Cranel, a young man hoping to become the greatest adventurer on earth. After a chance encounter with the lonely goddess, Hestia, his dreams become a little closer to reality.
With her support, Bell embarks on a fantastical quest as he ventures deep into the city's monster-filled dungeons.
Dungeon ni deai reviews
One of the most naive and virgin protagonists of all time. Of course, there will always be the protagonist of to love-ru, but this one is pretty comparable. Fortunately, what he has as a virgin, he has as a powerful one. But I must point out that this is one of the few anime that gives a great excuse to use a frequent clichê.
The article is still halfway through, but we recommend also reading:
Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut
Lux, a former prince of an empire called Arcadia, which was overthrown by a rebellion five years ago, accidentally breaks into the bathing area of a girls' dormitory, and there he sees the kingdom's new princess, naked.
The princess, in a rage, challenges Lux to a Drag-Ride duel. Drag-Rides are ancient armored mechanical weapons that have been excavated from ruins all over the world. However, lux used to be called the strongest Drag-Knight, but now he is known as the "weak Invincible".
SaiJaku muhai no bahamut reviews
I haven't seen any other clichê be used in such an original way. Usually the protagonists break into the women's bath through the door, but this guy accidentally managed to break in through the roof. But anyway, the important thing is that the protagonist looks like a child visually, but has the power to scare any adult.
Seikon no qwaser
After a horrible day, adopted sisters Mafuyu Oribe and Tomo Yamanobe come across an injured young man and decide to bring him home to recover. That same night, Mafuyu ends up at the mercy of the infamous serial killer. Strangely, he doesn't demand her life, but an icon left by Tomo's father.
Fortunately, Sasha, the mysterious young man the sisters had taken in, comes to the rescue and helps Mafuyu avoid the same fate as the other victims. Sasha reveals that he is a Qwaser, an individual capable of controlling scientific elements by participating in Soma, a miraculous essence found in women's breasts.
Seikon's comments on qwaser
I think I've already made a list of best ecchi, and this one is on the spiciest part of the list. Yes, this anime is nothing but a ecchi spicy. Where the protagonist uses the excuse of gaining power, to suck the girls' breasts. I found it quite original, and of course it's on my favorites list. I want to point out that I liked the story and not the spicy parts (it's true).
Strike the blood
Kojou Akatsuki's days as an ordinary high school student in Itogami Island's Demon District come to an abrupt end after a fateful encounter leaves him with the remarkable abilities of a vampire.
It doesn't take long for him to be thrust into the spotlight when it is discovered that he is the fourth eldest, an immensely powerful vampire that most consider merely a legend.
Fearing Kojou's destructive potential, the Lion King Organization sends an apprentice sword shaman to monitor, and if he becomes a threat, kill the boy. However, the two form an unlikely alliance when Kojou accepts his abilities. So both fight to protect the city from various emerging chaotic forces.
Strike the blood reviews
If the protagonist didn't have a giant harem, which I consider to be one of the best in all of anime, he wouldn't be here. Of course, it has other strengths, as well as the combat power of the "The" and its hot scenes. But its history is quite common, in fact, full of clichés, but original in several parts.
Dansai bunri at crime edge
Kiri Haimura has an obsession with cutting hair. This bizarre trait is what drives him to look for a long-haired ghost who lives in an abandoned house on a hill. However, he comes across a beautiful girl with long hair, whose hair cannot be cut due to a family curse.
Iwai explains that there is a death game around her, and that if she is killed by a cursed object, called "Killing Good", the user will have their wish granted.
Comments by Dansai bunri on crime edge
This was one of the first anime where the protagonist is addicted to cutting hair. I mean, until today I haven't seen another anime with this theme (this is an original anime). But the most important thing is that although the MC, apparently only likes to cut hair, he discovers several other abilities. Which makes him very strong as the episodes go by.
Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
In the distant future, most humans have left Earth, and the Galactic Alliance of Humanity was founded to guide exploration and ensure humanity's prosperity. However, a significant threat arises in the form of strange creatures called the Hideauze, resulting in an interstellar war to prevent humanity's extinction.
Armed with Chamber, an autonomous robot, 16-year-old Lieutenant Ledo of the Galactic Alliance joins the battle against the monsters. In an unfortunate turn of events, Ledo loses control during the battle and is launched into the far reaches of space, landing on a flooded Earth.
On the blue planet, Gargantia - a large fleet of cleaning ships - come across Chamber and retrieve it from the ocean, thinking they've recovered something of value. Mistaking his actions for hostility, Ledo sneaks aboard and takes a young messenger named Amy hostage, only to realize that the residents of Gargantia aren't that dangerous.
Suisei's comments on gargantia
Well, we already know he's the strongest on this earth, but is he the strongest in the universe? But this question makes no difference, the important thing is the graphics of this anime that are beautiful, at least I thought. In addition, it has a good romance for restless fans, who are always looking for a good couple to fantasize about.
Mushishi
"Mushi": the most basic forms of life in the world. They exist without any goals or purposes other than simply "being". They are beyond the shackles of the words "good" and "evil". Mushi can exist in myriad forms and are capable of mimicking things in the natural world such as plants, diseases, and even phenomena like rainbows.
This is, however, only a vague definition of these entities that inhabit the vibrant world of Mushishi, as even calling them a life form would be an oversimplification. Detailed information about Mushi is scarce because most humans are unaware of its existence.
So what are Mushi and why do they exist? This is the question that a “Mushishi”, Ginko, constantly ponders. Mushishi are those who research Mushi in hopes of understanding their place in the hierarchy of life in the world.
Mushishi's review
If you are looking for an anime with action, this one is not recommended. Because mushishi is a totally slow anime and almost without scenes of excitement. I believe that for those who don't like psychological anime, they go to sleep watching this one. But for those who like to reflect and learn various moral lessons, this is one of the best for that purpose.

Raised in an environment of conflict, Jonathan “Jonah” hates guns. But when Koko Hekmatyar, an international arms dealer, takes on Jonah as one of her bodyguards, he has no choice but to take up arms.
Along with Koko's other bodyguards, made up mostly of former special ops soldiers, Jonah is now tasked with protecting Koko and her overly idealistic goal of world peace from the myriad dangers that come from their line of work.
Jormungand's comments
Let's say that there is a giant inconsistency in the protagonist's life. Although he doesn't like guns, he can't survive without a gun at his side. In addition to this problem, the anime has good stories, too bad some are extremely rushed and poorly told. But the protagonist has many strengths and always outdoes himself.

As the list of protagonists with white hair is long and my patience is short to introduce them all at once, I will leave a few extras here.
