The strongest anime character in 2025 is widely regarded as Sung Jin-Woo from "Solo Leveling" due to his unstoppable power, commanding an army of shadows and surpassing the strength, speed, and reflexes of other top warriors. However, other top contenders frequently mentioned include:
- Zeno from "Dragon Ball Super," who can destroy entire universes with a snap of his fingers, making him a supreme eraser and ruler of all 12 universes.
- Saitama from "One Punch Man," whose ability to defeat any opponent with a single punch makes him virtually unbeatable and the "most overpowered" protagonist in anime.
- Son Goku from "Dragon Ball," famous for his immense strength, constant growth through training, and ability to defeat gods and demons alike.
Other powerful characters often listed near the top include Gojo Satoru (Jujutsu Kaisen) with his limitless cursed techniques, Anos Voldigoad (The Misfit of Demon King Academy), and Rimuru Tempest (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime).
In summary, while Sung Jin-Woo is ranked #1 in some 2025 specific rankings for his evolving powers, Saitama and Zeno are also frequently placed at the absolute top due to their near-limitless capabilities—Saitama for physical unbeatable power and Zeno for cosmic-scale destruction. Which is strongest may depend on whether power is considered in terms of raw physical combat ability (Saitama), tactical shadow command (Sung Jin-Woo), or universal-scale destruction (Zeno).
