Strongest Anime Characters of All Time

TL;DR

  • Zeno from "Dragon Ball Super" is often cited as one of the strongest due to his ability to erase universes [1:3], [5:1].
  • Saitama from "One Punch Man" is a gag character known for defeating opponents with a single punch [1:3].
  • Other notable mentions include Rimuru from "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime," Simon from "Gurren Lagann," and All Might from "My Hero Academia."

Zeno - Dragon Ball Super

Zeno is frequently mentioned as one of the most powerful anime characters due to his ability to erase multiple universes on a whim. This cosmic-level power places him above many other characters in terms of sheer destructive capability [1:3], [5:1]. Despite being a child-like figure, his authority over the multiverse makes him a formidable presence.

Saitama - One Punch Man

Saitama, also known as "Caped Baldy," is a unique character in anime due to his status as a gag character. His defining trait is that he can defeat any opponent with a single punch, which has led to humorous situations where he effortlessly overcomes seemingly insurmountable challenges [1:4], [5:4]. His strength grows when facing opponents close to his level, demonstrated by his battle against Cosmic Garou [1:4].

Rimuru Tempest - That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

Rimuru is another character noted for immense power, particularly in the light novel version. He possesses abilities like "Gluttony," allowing him to absorb others' powers, potentially making him stronger than even cosmic entities like Zeno [1:9]. Rimuru's versatility and adaptability make him a strong contender in discussions about powerful anime characters.

Simon - Gurren Lagann

Simon is celebrated for his role in "Gurren Lagann," where he pilots the titular mecha to achieve feats of universal scale. His progression from a timid boy to a confident leader capable of altering reality itself highlights his strength [1:6]. The series culminates in battles that transcend typical physical limitations, showcasing Simon's potential.

All Might - My Hero Academia

All Might is revered not only for his physical prowess but also for his symbolic role as the "Symbol of Peace." His presence alone maintains peace and order, demonstrating a strength that goes beyond mere combat ability [4:1], [4:4]. His influence is felt worldwide, emphasizing the impact of his strength both physically and ideologically.

Other Notable Mentions

Characters like Griffith from "Berserk," Sinbad from "Magi," and Mob from "Mob Psycho 100" are also recognized for their unique strengths within their respective universes [2:5]. Additionally, comedic or unconventional choices such as Kirby and Kotobuki Tsumugi have been humorously suggested due to their unexpected capabilities [5:7], [5:8].

Powerscaling gets funky here, because of gag characters.

Saitama is effectively a gag character, who's whole shtick is destroying anything and everything with a single strike. You think a guy is gonna get one over on him? Nope, he'll just get a little more serious.

Zeno can erase multiple universes literally on a whim. He's the supreme god of the multiverse.

Dragonball Super had a crossover episode with a little robot girl (Arale) from another of toriyama's works, and she just cartoon-logic'd her way out of everything, lol.

Saitama being gag is irrelevant. In the anime, Beerus is about to destroy Arale, a true gag character, unlike Saitama just being effectively a gag character. Goku then states that gag stuff is irrelevant to Beerus.

Whis and Zeno are much stronger than Beerus, so they are immune to gag nonsense too.

Haven’t watched One Piece so can’t comment on him, but out of the first three it’s easily All Might. He’s known worldwide as the Symbol of Peace, to the point where even kids who don’t know Japan know it as “All Might’s country” (from S7). Gojo is known as strong by jujutsu society, and Jinwoo to my knowledge is not world-renowned.

Actual power is a whole other can of worms that I refuse to open, but in terms of being known as strong, it’s All Might hands down.

Fun-Can-3619 · 1 month ago

Sukuna, Tanjiro (With his sword held in one hand), High Dio and the other white Dios, Gojo, both the Yorrichi Tsugikuni one is faster but the other's flame abilities last longer, Awakened Yhwach, Aizen (theres a variety of em but theres only one that actually doesnt spam their abilities and is actually good and counters most hits and while I was testing characters, I found another Aizen who took only rare fighters he fought against to take off his glasses then he became op. Mugen is so comlicated cuz most fights they dont transform and sometimes they do or they only transform against specific characters then fight normally with others. So my solution was to do a turn based where I make them first fight the chaarcters they usually transform against then kill that character as soon as the fight starts before making them 1v1 a character I want. This worked the same way with blindfolded Gojo who kept his blindfold on when he fought sukuna but toook it off when he fought characters like dio k1 and high dio or Tanjiro (with one sword who can awaken) so I put Dio as the first turn, killed him when gojo took off ther blindfold, then made him fight Sukuna shibuya incident to see who was stronger. For once, Sukuna was dominated by gojo. I finally got to see the true fight in the mugen ver cuz Gojo kept getting bodied and I kept getting mad he didnt go all out cuz the other guys infiniite vulnerable and the other one one was extreemely fast but couldnt hit Sukuna and the other was just plain slow but had infinity. The Blindfolded gojo was both fast strong, had 0.2 domain and could use all his abilities. The downside is that characters can still move when he uses purple and it just begs me to ask what the point even is

Tbh, out of this list it might just be Yoriichi.

He may not be anywhere near the best written but from straight portrayal, he genuinely is the strongest in every sense of the word. This man didn't take a single L in the entire series and absolutely steam-rolled everyone.

For Muzan to be defeated, he had to be bullshit poisoned, and then weakened by multiple Hashira, and then Tanjiro ( with literally every slayer buff ) 1v1 him with sun style, and just then did they barely beat him.

Whereas, we see Yoriichi shitstomp Muzan with literal negative difficulty. And like you mentioned, he does it so bad that Muzan gets PTSD for the rest of his life, and it scared him so much that literally anyone with his blood is scarred by the encounter too.

With Gojo, technically Sukuna is stronger than him, with Saitama he doesn't get the rep for his saves except for a very small circle of protagonist, All Might has his injury so he's fallible. (Obviously, in the long run all of these are actually good things because it allows for all of the above to make infinitely more interesting and better written charcters than Yoriichi)

But, when it comes to us being shown who's the strongest, Yoriichi might just take it, since he literally shows us with his feats, his statements, his impact, his prodigious nature and his reputation. He's literally infallible as the strongest in Demon Slayer.

Tomura Shigaraki had a body with comparable physicals to All Might even while his quirks were under the effects of Erasure. Additionally, Deku, who already has a stronger One for All than All Might on account of the quirk growing stronger with every transfer, has two other damage boosting quirks from One for All’s second and third users. This allows him to fight at 120%.

Regarding One Piece, Joyboy is definitely the strongest. I won’t spoil the reason we know this.

r/CharacterRant • [9]

Summarize

I love when a character generally deemed "The Strongest" by the series is in that position not because of overwhelming physical dominance or fundamentally better abilities, but rather by virtue of simply being better at what they do.

Posted by Rancorious · in r/CharacterRant · 5 months ago

Honestly I like it more when, even if their power is simple, the "strongest" is explicitly not in that position because of pure physical might, but rather in spite of it. Probably my favorite examples of this (outside of Jojo) are King Bradley from Fullmetal Alchemist and Sato from Ajin: Demi-human.

Bradley's generally considered the strongest character outside of the literal final boss and the spiritual embodiment of natural order, yet he's just a fast, skilled swordsman who's trained all his life. He's not the physically strongest, because there's Sloth (basically Hulk but lazy), multiple chimeras, and even a few humans who'd beat him in an arm wrestling competition any day of the week. He's not the fastest because Sloth can speedblitz characters in a similar manner but with way less effort. And he's not the most durable because he's not only "just" an exceptionally hard-to-kill guy but also lacks the invincible skin of Greed or even the regeneration that any other Homunculi has. His Ultimate Eye grants greater visual acuity akin to a Byakugan but is limited by a normal field of view, letting him quickly analyze situations visually and react accordingly, yet it's up to himself to react, unlike the more blatantly broken powers of the others.

When he gets shot, it matters. And even his weapons are nothing to write home about, being regular military spadroons interspersed with the occasional knife when necessary. They're disposable and more than capable of breaking under the right stress, and without them he loses a lot of offensive capability against characters in a similar weight class like other homunculi. Yet despite all this he's one of the most feared because of his merciless, no-nonsense approach to fighting and his sheer skill and adaptability.

Sato takes his own unique approach to being the strongest for a sci fi manga, because he, a regenerating, immortal human known as an Ajin is operating on the exact same powerset every other character does. Every Ajin has the ability to regenerate upon death and a good chunk of them can summon a black "ghost" called an IBM with minor superhuman strength. This is all Ajins can do, nothing more, and the same is true with Sato.

He doesn't have any secret technique or OP Stat that puts him above everyone else, and this isn't a world where people can train to the point of dodging bullets or lifting cars, he's just human. Despite this, he manages to be a one-man army because of his gunfighting skill, ability to improvise and adapt with basically any tools on hand, out-of-the-box strategies, and sheer madness.

The man will literally game the system of his own powers so hard that he'll figure out entirely new applications nobody's considered, like turning himself into a friendly fire risk by diving in the middle of a squad of police or turning grenades into close-quarter weapons. And those aren't even close to the craziest things he does. Because of all this Sato is on a different level any other one person in the series, even when working with the same tools.

I find this type of "Strongest" character interesting because they manage to dominate despite not having abilities that allow them to completely breeze through situations like others might, having to not only put the work in to become as feared as they have, but constantly adapt and respond to situations that let them show of their skill and tactical ability rather than simply bulldozing through with higher numbers. Multiple characters could snap Bradley like a twig or dice him up if he gave them the chance, yet he never does. A well-timed car bomb with followup tranquilizers could easily put Sato out of the fight, yet he makes sure to never put himself in positions like that. It's not sheer that allows them to dominate their opponents, but rather how they use what they have.

Ajin's "power system" basically revolves around death and taking risks. A madman like Sato, completely unafraid of death, is bound to exploit it as much as possible.

When you think about it, he's smart, but he's not some crazy master planner playing 4D chess with his abilities. Instead, he is completely deprived of any subconscious blocks about self-preservation, and thus comes up with plans the average sane guy wouldn't even consider possible.

Chief among them, >!sending his hand in a box through security and then tossing himself into a woodchipper to completely regenerate from the hand, past security!<.

Sato is one of my favorite villains precisely because he understands how to game the power system. And it never feels cheap, or like an asspull. Every time he comes up with a new scheme the viewer is left thinking "huh why didn't anyone else think of that"

Its entirely as you described, he just lacks any sort of self-preservation, he sees life as a video game almost.

The fact that every plan manages to be more reasonable to figure out than the stuff you see in jojo's while still being utterly insane due to the sheer insanity required to consider them is part of Ajin's magic. One of the best parts of the series is seeing how Kei Nagai slowly becomes more like Sato in terms of what he's willing to do to himself for a plan, to the point of shooting himself mid-chase to keep pace with Sato despite fatal injuries.

Madara Uchiha to Might Guy.

Granted, Guy still needed a bit of backup, but Madara was coked up on every broken hax ability in Naruto from the Sharingan to the Rinnegan, Byakugan, and the entire goddamn TEN TAILS yet Might Guy was able to damage and nearly kill him with nothing but raw Taijustu skill via the 8th Gate--something that everyone can make use of, but choose not to.

He earned the right to be called the strongest.

Everyone could use the 8th gate in theory, but nearly nobody even has the GUTS and the POWER OF YOUTH to open even the 1st, Might Guy alone is the one who was willing to sacrifice his OVERWHELMING POWER OF YOUTH to lay the smackdown.

In Cyberpunk, Morgan Blackhand is considered THE Legend in a city of Legends. No one has ever compared to him, no one will ever compare to him.

Dude is running basic, run of the mill chrome. The reason he's such a force that even Adam Smasher, the Boogieman of Night City, can't lay a finger on him is because he's capable of calling in favors from everyone and is king of coming at people sideways.

Isn't V the strongest by the end? Especially after taking on the entirety of Arasaka AND Adam Smasher by himself?

He also countered tranquillisers by committing suicide if he gets hit by one, so he will revive without falling unconscious.

Altair Ibn-La'Ahad from the first Assassin's Creed.

A remark that is often repeated by fans: where other protagonists have health bars, Altair had a synchronization bar. The way the Animus works (machine that lets you relive your ancestor's life), you get desynchronized when doing something that your ancestor didn't do.

Meaning, outside of scripted events, Altair never got hit.

I'm emphasizing Altair's comparison to other protagonists here in consideration of him having Eagle Vision, although that didn't really have any effect in his other abilities as an Assassin.

He literally moves so fast nobody can keep track of him and eats almost everything like it’s nothing. His only weakness seems to be that his great strength comes at the cost of having less lives than the other homunculi. Perhaps because he needs to consume a bunch to revive once?

Summarize

(Sem briga só comentários) Quem VOCÊ acha que é o personagem mais forte dos animes?

Imagens meramente ilustrativas, a "discussão nal se limita a eles

Regras:

  • não vale personagem que foi criado apenas pra ser um deus onipotente

  • a sua interpretação não tem o mesmo valor de um fato (ex: o vazio roxo do Gojo não é o equivalente a um buraco negro)

  • poderes como o do Subaru de Rezero (retorno através da morte) nao são considerados (até pq se ele morreu então ele perdeu a luta mesmo que ele volte), apenas poderes de regeneração ou que faça o personagem se levantar mesmo que devesse estar morto

  • poderes que não são são canônicos ou parte da trama da versão original não contam

Qlqr personagem com crescimento ilimitado (se for considerar q dele nunca está em seu auge) tipo o próprio Saitama que não tem limite pra crescimento, ou tipo o Sung Jin Woo que não foi apresentado limite.

Por outro lado, podemos levar pra a força da insistência, por exemplo, o Deadpool que é praticamente imortal, ou o Ban da ganância da raposa que é imortal (se considerarmos ele ainda cm os poderes).

Obs:citei Deadpool como exemplo mas não considero ele elegível já que são personagens de anime.

Mas aí a gente tem alguns personagens como, sei lá, a Madoka que virou um conceito, ou seja, ela não precisa estritamente de um corpo pra estar viva, ou então a Noel depois de virar Dead Apostle, que tem os Mystic Eyes de aprisionar a alma do mano. Eu não acho que o Saitama pode fazer alguma coisa se não ter algo pra ele socar ou então não conseguir controlar o próprio corpo.

No universo do Saitama, ele é inderrotavel, impagável e imune a tudo, e não faz sentido misturar universos, então se todos os animes fossem pro universo do Saitama, ele seria o mais forte, mas se ele fosse pra outros, perderia o posto de "inderrotavel" ou "o mais forte", porque a lei universal é que só pode existir um por universo.

Então resumidamente, toda essa briga por quem é mais forte é perca de tempo.

Saitama é o mais forte do verso e pela narrativa a gente ainda não sabe (e talvez nunca saiba) a verdadeira extensão dos poderes dele, o maior feito dele ainda não é muito comparado ao de outros personagens de outros animes mas fica nítido que ele não tá nem perto de ter mostrado sua capacidade total

Ps: que q o meruem tá fazendo ali?

O Saitama já que o poder dele é literalmente ser o mais forte. Então se aparecesse um mais forte ele ficaria mais forte pra derrotar.

Esse não é o poder dele, o poder dele é sua força sempre crescer com o tempo e caso sinta emoções fortes, começa a subir exponencialmente

E o maior feito dele é multi galaxia, então não importa o quanto ele cresça, não consegue derrotar ninguém acima de universal, tipo o goku

Não sei de onde tirou isso.

O Saitama literalmente quebrou o limitador dele e tem o poder de adaptabilidade ou seja como eu disse sempre ser o mais forte.

Nunca suou pra ganhar de nenhum inimigo nem do Garou que no ápice criava buracos negros e manipulava as próprias partículas pra poder voltar no tempo. O Saitama viu ele fazendo e instantâneamente já aprendeu a manipular suas partículas e voltou num tempo antes do Garou.

E a história tá se encaminhando pra ter o Deus que dá poderes aos outros vilões como o vilão principal.

A real é que nem tem como. O sistema de bençãos dele é totalmente RIDÍCULO. Se algo que poderia afetar negativamente o Reinhard funciona, o mlk vai e ganha uma benção contra aquilo automaticamente... É meio impossível, mesmo.

strongest anime characters of all time

Key Considerations for Strongest Anime Characters:

  1. Power Scaling: Different anime have varying power levels and abilities, making direct comparisons challenging. Consider the context of each character's universe.

  2. Abilities and Techniques: Look for characters with unique abilities, such as reality manipulation, time control, or immense physical strength.

  3. Durability and Resilience: Characters who can withstand extreme damage or recover quickly from injuries often rank higher in strength.

  4. Versatility: Characters with a wide range of skills or those who can adapt to different situations tend to be more formidable.

  5. Fan Consensus: Popularity and fan discussions often highlight characters considered the strongest, but opinions can vary widely.

Notable Characters:

  • Goku (Dragon Ball Series): Known for his Super Saiyan transformations and mastery of martial arts, Goku is often cited as one of the strongest characters in anime history.

  • Saitama (One Punch Man): His ability to defeat any opponent with a single punch makes him a unique contender in discussions of strength.

  • Zeno (Dragon Ball Super): As the Omni-King, Zeno has the power to erase entire universes, placing him at the top of the power hierarchy.

  • Madara Uchiha (Naruto): With his mastery of ninjutsu and the Rinnegan, Madara is one of the most powerful shinobi in the Naruto universe.

  • Alucard (Hellsing): As a nearly immortal vampire with vast powers, Alucard's abilities make him a formidable force.

Recommendation: When discussing the strongest anime characters, it's essential to consider the context of their abilities and the universes they inhabit. Goku and Saitama often lead the conversation, but characters like Zeno and Madara bring unique strengths that challenge traditional notions of power.
