Gallery[]
The Soul King Adnyeus (Bleach) may look like an ordinary human (ignoring his unnatural eyes), but he is an utterly unique and incomprehensible being with incomparable power that predates the very concepts of life and death.
Majin Buu (Dragon Ball Z) is an incalculably ancient, immortal magical monstrosity that once endangered the gods themselves, defies all known laws of physics, and yet looks like a small, pink, gum-like humanoid.
The Goddess of the Night, one of the Primordials, and the mother of Death itself, Nyx/Nox (Greco-Roman Mythology) was, like her fellow Protogenoi, a being of such power and status that even Zeus feared her; unlike her fellow Protogenoi, Nyx took the appearance of an inhumanly beautiful woman.
Like her father, Galactus, Galacta (Marvel Comics) is a cosmic entity that merely looks like a human at first glance; though as opposed to Galactus, she actively tries to act human.
Philemon (Persona) usually tends to take the appearance of an ordinary human with a butterfly mask...
...but is in reality the anthropomorphic personification of humanity's goodness, born out of the collective unconscious.
Miranda (Resident Evil Village) may have started out as an ordinary human, but her twisted experiments with the mutagenic Mold known as the "Black God" turned her into something else, something that only looks human.
Ashi (Samurai Jack) may look like an ordinary girl, and even believed herself to be one, but, like her sisters, she was a literal offspring of the physical manifestation of evil itself, Aku.
The Endless (The Sandman) may manifest their appearances as humans but are in actuality to gods what gods are to mortals.
Gaunter O'Dimm (The Witcher 3), presents himself as a mere travelling vagrant, but is also known as "Master Mirror", "The Man of Glass", and "Evil Incarnate".
Yogiri Takatou (Instant Death) may look human but he's in fact the representation of the inevitable End of all Existence, non-existence,and phenomenon standing beyond .
