Top 15 Strongest Anime Characters Ever – Hey guys!. In this post, I’ll be discussing a list of Top 15 Strongest Anime Characters Ever. What if I tell you that an anime character is strong enough to destroy a planet with ease? Who do you remember? I believe more than one, right? Most anime and manga nowadays have characters that are, to put it mildly, pretty strong.
And when I say strong, I don’t mean only physically strong, but also in terms of powers. Some characters are so overpowered that they manage to do unimaginable things, overcoming any barriers and completely breaking the laws of physics. Many of them manage to defeat enemies with frightening ease! It doesn’t matter if your opponent has the strength of 1000 men or the powers of a deity.
But what if all these unusual characters were in the same place? Who could be considered the strongest? And of course, that basic warning: This list will contain some spoilers of the works that will appear here, okay? So, let’s get started.
15. Alucard From Hellsing
He is the protagonist of the work “Hellsing”, and is also considered the most powerful vampire in the anime world. Take all the powers you think a vampire has. Now add a few more and multiply the strength and efficiency of all of them by a thousand. That is the level of Allucard. He has a giant list of powers, and talking about them all here would take up too much of our time.
So let’s try to give a summary. For starters, he has a vampire’s base kit: Super strength, super speed and super regeneration – but remember, you have to multiply everything by a thousand! With his advanced regeneration, he ends up becoming practically immortal, being able to return from the dead even if he is decapitated.
Not to mention he’s also resistant to all the things that could “popularly” kill a vampire, like sunlight and holy equipment. Additionally, Alucard possesses telekinesis, telepathy, extrasensory perception, hypnosis, climate control, omnipresence, intangibility, supernatural detection, and can even transform his body into shadows or any living being.
And to boot, Alucard also carries two special pistols, which in addition to being used to eliminate both monsters and humans, are extremely heavy and no ordinary human being is able to even lift them off the ground.
14. Korosensei From Assassination Classroom
Coming from the anime “Assassination Classroom”, Koro-sensei is the teacher of a school that aims to train assassins. After undergoing several experiments to produce antimatter in a living body, Korosensei became an octopus-like creature with many tentacles and gained its powers.
In addition to super strength and superhuman reflexes and senses, Koro-sensei also has a speed that is several times faster than the speed of sound. Which allows him to be able to dodge firearms and even go around the world in a short time.
He also has regeneration, increased stamina, shooting lasers from his tentacles, superior intelligence, liquefaction (which turns his body into liquid) and a few other powers. The only way to hurt Koro-sensei is to use Anti-Koro weapons, which are weapons made with a special material designed exclusively to kill him. But Koro still manages to enter its “absolute defense” mode.
In this mode, your body disappears, leaving only your head in a kind of indestructible glass dome. Almost nothing can penetrate this shield, not even anti-Koro material… except for a weapon created by the government: the Lance of Heaven, which manages to break through its almost absolute defense.
13. Satoru Gojo From Jujutsu Kaisen
Satoru is a special-grade jujutsu sorcerer who serves as a teacher at the Tokyo School of Jujutsu, and is widely recognized as the strongest sorcerer in the world. Descended from an ancient and powerful family of sorcerers, since he was a child Satoru Gojo was already absurdly powerful, as he was born with a rare combination of abilities of his own family.
In addition to possessing colossal amounts of cursed energy, Satoru also possesses enormous physical strength, superhuman reflexes, and speed. But what makes him so powerful are the techniques: Unlimited and the 6 Eyes, both abilities he inherited from the Gojo family.
With the combination of these techniques, Satoru can practically manipulate space-time with atomic-level control, being able to generate a vacuum, slow things down, create centers of gravity, repel objects, and even erase any type of matter from existence.
His Domain Expansion is also frightening, where he creates a metaphysical space in which his victims are bombarded with all kinds of stimuli and information repeatedly in their five senses, crippling their target’s ability to act and react. And finally, Satoru has already shown that he is even capable of flying and that he can basically create an invisible barrier over his body.
12. Mob From Mob Psycho 100
Mob is the protagonist of the work “Mob Psycho 100”, and curiously, he was created by the same author of One Punch Man. His real name is Shigeo Kageyama, and he is everything he appears to be at first glance: An ordinary, simple, peaceful, and shy person. However, behind all this “mask” of an ordinary boy, Mob hides his psychic powers.
He possesses various mind-derived powers such as telekinesis, astral projection, spirit sensing, and energy absorption. In addition to these, Mob can also create barriers and energy shots. All these Mob powers increase depending on your emotional charge, represented by a percentage that always rises according to your mood.
When Mob doesn’t feel many emotions, his percentage stays at 0% and his powers stabilize, and even then, his powers are already quite strong in this form. The percentage only increases with some strong emotion felt by him, such as anger, fear or sadness. Once it reaches 100%, Mob is overcome with that feeling, and his powers reach a frightening peak.
Here, his powers are even capable of generating huge storms or lifting several buildings off the ground. However, Mob can go further! When passing 100%, it enters the “???%” mode. In this mode, Mob becomes an unstoppable monster, where its true strength and capabilities are unknown.
11. Kaguya Ōtsutsuki From Naruto Shippuden
Kaguya is a member of the Ōtsutsuki clan and the matriarch of a branch family, being the mother of legends Hagoromo and Hamura. Long before the foundation of the hidden villages, Kaguya consumed the fruit of the God Tree and gained an enormous amount of chakra, with which she was able to single-handedly stop all the wars that raged in those lands.
Afterwards, Kaguya became frighteningly powerful and developed a God complex, which made her think that no mortal was worthy of using chakra, only her. In addition to having an insane amount of chakra, she has several unique jutsus and appeals. For starters, she has both the Byakugan and the Rinne Sharingan, and can use all the jutsu they come with – which in itself is pretty unbalanced.
She can use all five nature transformations, can absorb any technique or chakra from her enemies, can float, teleport and travel between different dimensions at will. In addition, she can use a jutsu called “Deadly Ash Bones”, which consists of conjuring special bones from her own body, and as soon as these bones pass through someone, that person turns to dust in seconds.
And finally, Kaguya also has an Expanded Sphere of the Path of Truth, which houses all transformations of nature and bloodlines, with the power to change the world, obliterating everything into nothingness, essentially being the beginning of a new dimension.
10. Saiki Kusuo From The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.
This is the protagonist of the anime Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan, or “The Disastrous Life of Saiki Kusuo”. This is an anime that focuses on comedy, despite its protagonist being extremely powerful. Saiki is a very shy boy by choice, as he refuses to socially interact with anyone or attract any attention to himself. He only communicates by telepathically transmitting words to others.
He chooses to be excluded due to the fact that his powers are something that has pushed people away from him more than they have brought him closer. Since his birth, Saiki already had psychic powers that, at first, only gave an absurd intelligence to a baby.
But over time, he developed all sorts of psychic and paranormal powers, such as telekinesis, telepathy, teleportation, pyrokinesis, clairvoyance, levitation, DNA manipulation, shapeshifting, astral projection and temporal travel and manipulation…. Plus, of course, of super strength, super speed and super resistance…
To try to control his own powers, Saiki uses small devices on his head similar to antennas, which greatly reduce his immense powers. Many of the various gifts Saiki possesses cannot be controlled by himself, such as telepathy. As far as we know, Saiki’s evolutionary capacity is practically infinite, and more: It’s something passive, where he doesn’t need to do anything to get stronger.
9. Goku From Dragon Ball Super
For many people, Goku needs no introduction, as he is possibly the most famous character in the world of anime. But for mere formality, we will introduce it here. Goku is not a human, but an alien of the “Saiyan” race, coming from the planet Vegeta. Goku’s greatest trait, of course, is his relentless desire to always want to get stronger and face the most powerful opponents he encounters.
Goku’s powers come from manipulating his Ki, which is the form of life energy in Dragon Ball. Even in his base form, Goku already possesses superhuman physical attributes, having super strength, super speed and super endurance. However, upon evolving into a superior form, such as a Super Saiyan, not only does his strength and speed increase, but so does his Ki.
Goku already has several transformations, and essentially, all of them drastically increase all of his powers… and, of course, also change the color of his hair. Defeating Goku only in his Super Saiyan form would be an impossible task for many anime characters, and even when he is defeated and is in a near-death state, Goku always recovers and comes back much stronger.
Currently, Goku’s most powerful form is Superior Instinct, a combat technique of the Angels, which allows its user to move his body instinctively, without thinking, so that his movements are more fluid and consequently faster and more assertive.
8. Saitama From One Punch Man
Saitama is the main protagonist of One-Punch Man, and the most powerful character in the series. He faces a self-imposed existential crisis, where he has become so powerful, that he no longer feels any emotion during battle, as in most cases he defeats his enemies with a punch or two. Saitama is a 100% evolved anime character in his first appearance scene.
He possesses virtually limitless physical strength, unrivaled speed and reflexes, and incredible stamina and durability. Without much effort, he is able to destroy meteors with just one punch, jump from the moon to planet earth in a matter of seconds, devastate the gases of planet Jupiter with a single sneeze, and withstand multiple gamma-ray blast attacks from Garou Cosmic Fear Mode.
Saitama even has some supernatural abilities that completely break the laws of physics. He has already shown to be able to grab and kick through interdimensional portals and has also shown that he possesses an ability to copy any powers and techniques he witnesses in battle, as he did by copying the ability to manipulate his body on an atomic level and being able to rewind time.
And finally, it is worth mentioning that Saitama also has an infinite evolution capacity, where he becomes stronger with each passing second, always surpassing his own limits, especially when he is facing a powerful enemy.
7. Giorno Giovanna From JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
The protagonist of Jojo part 5 and a bastard son of Dio Brando. His stand is called Gold Experience, and with it, Giorno’s main ability is to transform any object into living beings – like, for example, turning a brick into a snake. And if these beings created by him are attacked by someone, this automatically causes the damage dealt to the creature to be reflected back to the attacker.
But Giorno’s Stand has already evolved into something much more powerful. After piercing Gold Experience with the Stand Arrow, Giorno made his stand change appearance and evolve into “Gold Experience Requiem”. With that, all of the Stand’s stats, such as strength, speed, range, and others, increased by immeasurable levels. But that is not all.
A passive ability that the stand gained is “Back to zero”, where any attempt to hurt or nullify Giorno’s senses is completely nullified and reset to the moment before that attack attempt, preventing the action from becoming real. For those of you who are computer savvy, it’s like CTRL Z on anything done against it. With this ability, Giorno is basically able to completely rewrite reality if something bad happens to him!
Its ability to grant life was also increased, where the Stand could even turn small stone fragments into various scorpions. Lastly, Gold Experience Requiem’s most powerful ability is its Time Loop. If someone is killed by the stand, that person will experience infinite death experiences in different realities, where the target will be dying uninterruptedly, and only with Giorno’s own will, this loop can be broken.
6. Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann From Gurren Lagann
The anime “Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann” is an anime that likes to exaggerate the “strength” and “size” of its characters, and you will understand why. Gurren and Lagann are two relatively small robots that, when united, transform into a giant and more powerful Mecha called Gurren Lagann. Then the robot can attach structures from other buildings to itself, and it keeps getting bigger and stronger.
And you can already imagine that from that point on things are getting more and more absurd. The robot begins to undergo several transformations and increasing its size more and more, reaching the point of becoming larger than an entire galaxy. What’s more, he’s even able to use the galaxies themselves as weapons!
If he wants to, he can simply join several galaxies together to condense their energy and generate Big Bang-like explosions. After absorbing enough energy, the Mecha became the Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagan, which gave it a height of trillions of light years. The robot’s height already seems enough to make him scary, doesn’t it? Well, we haven’t even talked about his powers yet!
In addition to the energy absorption he uses to evolve, the big robot can create different weapons by manipulating spiral energy, can control reality, break spacetime, and manipulate entropy, probability.
5. Elder God Demonbane From Demonbane
A powerful deity that comes from the anime “Demonbane”, a show that mixes mechas and elements of Lovecraftian culture. Demonbane is better known for its game franchise than its anime, actually. Like Gurren Lagan, Demonbane is a Mecha that can increase its size infinitely, but still manage to be stronger.
He managed to evolve into the “Elder God” form, which according to the anime, is a status of cosmic entities that surpass time and space, matter and energy, creation and destruction. They are basically omnipotent. This robot is considered a true Deus Ex-Machina, as it is infinitely powerful and has no weaknesses. That’s right you heard. Zero weaknesses!
Furthermore, Demonbane has a much more extensive list of powers than the Gurren Lagan. To name a few, he can manipulate reality and space-time, change shape, travel at the speed of light, create clones, become intangible, draw energy from countless parallel universes, create black holes, and countless other apelling powers.
“Elder God” is the most powerful form of the Demonbane mecha, but even in a more weakened form of the robot, he was already capable of destroying billions of planets in a single combat. Demonbane became such a powerful entity, with such extraordinary power that he was able to completely surpass almost all other Gods and entities in his verse.
4. Zeno From Dragon Ball Super
He looks pretty cute, doesn’t he? But if you knew what this tiny little creature is capable of doing without feeling any feelings, you wouldn’t think the same way. Zeno is possibly the most powerful entity to ever appear in the Dragon Ball work. He is a kind of ruler of all existing universes, but despite his so superior rank, he has the mentality of a naive and cheerful child.
He has complete control of all of reality, and without any effort, Zeno can erase an entire universe in the blink of an eye. During the Tournament of Power, he did this over and over again, and without caring what he was doing. It was like a child playing with his toys. When Zeno erases a universe, he is erased along with even immortal beings, as he eliminates all traces of any entity, both material and immaterial.
Furthermore, Zeno is completely immortal, with no way to kill him. He was once even able to survive the destruction of an entire timeline, and has been ruling the multiverse for possibly millions of years. Despite all his power, Zeno doesn’t fight and doesn’t even have any intention of fighting anyone.
He doesn’t even need to, because after all, with a single movement of his finger, anyone who dares to face him is completely erased from existence. The only person who was brainless enough to challenge Lord Zeno to a fight was Goku, but luckily, Zeno took it as a joke and did him and his universe no harm.
3. Rimuru Tempest From That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime
Rimuru Tempest is the protagonist of the anime “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime”, and even though his powers have reached the level of a God, he is a kind being and would not harm anyone. After being stabbed and killed, Rimuru was reincarnated in another world as a piece of blue slime, and initially gained two special powers, the “Predator” and the “Great Sage”.
These powers would go on to make Rimuru one of the most appealing beings in anime history. When Rimuru uses his Predator ability, he envelops the opponent’s body in his slime form and absorbs all of the target’s powers into himself, and his ability to store powers is infinite, meaning he will never feel overwhelmed! This gave him the ability to absorb virtually every power that exists in the anime.
The list is so extensive that we don’t even need to list any power, just think of any type of skill that Rimuru will have in his “store”. No matter how strange or random the power you envisioned, Rimuru has it! Super strength? Yes. Telepathy? check. Unlimited knowledge? Check. That and thousands of different powers. He’s like an infinitely superior version of All for One.
After consuming Yuuki’s powers, Rimuru gained powers of interdimensional travel and space-time manipulation, in addition to being able to suck souls and use them to revive dead people. He practically became a god. What makes him so high on this list is that, even after reaching this level of power, Rimuru can still evolve far beyond that.
2. Ryougi Shiki From Kara no Kyoukai
Ryougi Shiki is a very shy girl with a split personality. At one point in history, Shiki awakened an ability called the “Mystic Eyes of Death Perception”, which gave her the ability to see the mortality of living or non-living things in the form of lines. With this power, she can also use any sharp object such as a knife to cut that line and take the life or existence of anything easily.
Shiki can also cut off powers and immaterial things such as telekinesis, completely negating their effect. As far as we know, the capabilities of things Shiki can cut have no limits, and even if her enemies are gods, demons, undead… She can defeat them all by cutting their lifeline.
Depending on the enemy’s strength and magnitude, finding the right line to kill him ends up being a greater challenge, but nothing Shiki can’t do. She also has a special prosthetic arm, which allows her to touch intangible things, such as ghosts or spirits. Usually, Shiki faces his enemies with a third personality, called “Void Shiki”.
This persona is connected with the roots of life and existence itself, and can manipulate all these things without problems. Reconstructing the laws of physics, going back and forward in time, and other abilities that border on omnipotence. She also has other minor powers, but believe me, with everything we’ve shown here, she’s already more than capable of killing celestial beings with a simple knife.
1. Kami Tenchi From Tenchi Muyou!
Being the supreme entity of the anime “Tenchi Muyo”, Kami Tenchi is a deity that is apparently omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, omni-all! Usually, he shows himself in a humanoid form with a body coated with light, but this is just a physical representation for humans to minimally understand his presence. I think that’s more than enough to say how powerful he is, right?
While Zeno often plays marbles with other planets, Kami Tenchi’s mere presence caused over 20 hyper-dimensions to collide, which nearly destroyed all of existence itself. He is a completely transcendental entity, that is, the human mind itself cannot understand its own existence.
And since he is possibly an omnipotent being, he becomes capable of doing anything and has all kinds of amazing powers, such as: dimensional and reality manipulation, time and space manipulation, portal generation… and much, much more. … “Kami Tenchi” is not even his real name, it’s just a nickname created by fans of the work! The entity doesn’t have an official name, and it couldn’t even, right?
As you can see, this being isn’t evil or good, it’s just impartial, as all of existence basically bows to it. Really, there’s nothing more you can say about Kami Tenchi, just that he’s a being that surpasses and surpasses any character you can imagine.
Conclusion
Whew, what a trip, isn’t it? Could you imagine that there were such dark characters in anime? Basically, everyone here came close to becoming a deity or even something greater than that. But remember: Even if an anime has extremely appealing characters, it doesn’t mean that it is superior to another anime, okay? Therefore, never judge a work as being bad just because it does not have “God-level” characters.
