Tatsumaki is one of the few anime characters here who doesn't actually need to have great hand-to-hand combat skills. Her power comes from her psychic abilities. She's called the Tornado of Terror as a result of what she can do.
The titan shifter Eren Yeager is a very powerful anime character who has the ability to transform into a 15 meter tall Titan with incredible regenerative abilities. However, the reason he’s so high up on this list is because of his ability to command legions of Titans with the power of the Founding Titan inside of him.

A young man who gained a natural command over alchemy after tragically losing his right arm and left leg while trying to bring his mother back to life, Edward Elric is extremely powerful. He can alter the terrain of any battlefield with his alchemy skills, and transform nearly any substance into a weapon to complement his versatile fighting style.
In fact, in the sequel Clear Card series, Sakura's own magic is so great that she rewrites the cards over the course of the series. She can use the magic inside of her to augment the cards, make them stronger, or create her own. The use of the cards allow her the power of flight, super strength, speed, and more. She is, however, still one of the youngest Magical Girls in anime, ensuring that she lacks the same ruthlessness of some of her older counterparts.
Though Eren is far from useless while in his human form, it's not until he transforms that he really becomes deadly. The ability to mutate into an unstoppable fifteen-foot Titan is an incredibly useful one to have up one's sleeve, and it's one that comes to his rescue time and time again throughout Attack on Titan.
Naruto may not be as strong as some of the other popular anime protagonists that are out there, but what he lacks in raw strength, he more than makes up for with technique and confidence. The once narcissistic ninja's control over the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox makes him a real force to be reckoned with, as too does Sage Mode.
Thanks to his impressive collection of souls, Alucard is more or less invincible at the beginning of Hellsing. By the series' conclusion, however, he exists both everywhere and nowhere, making it downright impossible to kill him.
Being the Son of the Soul King, Yhwach was blessed with a number of unique powers; most notably the ability to distribute parts of his soul to other living beings simply by touching them.

Naruto has come up against some powerful villains over the years, but none quite as deadly as the Rabbit Goddess, Kaguya.

The Misfit of Demon King Academy anime may be fairly new when compared to some of the other popular anime series that have made their way west, but its main protagonist Anos has existed for more than 2,000 years.
He transforms into the Salt King: which heavily increases his attack, and with every swing of his s word he’s destroying a building. Plus he can fly. But the most important power he gains is to both turn his enemies into salt, one shotting them in the process, and controlling that salt like a makeshift Gaara.
But when he gets serious it’s a whole different story. He transforms into a giant beast who saps the mana out of everything around him, turning it into ice.
And Muzan is pretty nuts in all regards. Just being a demon already means that during the night he’s invincible to everything that doesn’t harbor the power of the Sun. But Muzan can also create other demons, and not some baby foot soldiers. But real demons that the protagonists barely fend off.
The thing with Akame is that she’s guaranteed to one-shot you, with even just a graze. This is because her sword puts a “death mark” on you. But instead of letting you pass the Chunin exams, it just kills you. And that’s very relevant when the wielder of said sword is as fast and precise as Akame is.
I hate to do my boy Meruem like this. But even though he’s powerful and excellent in combat, Nanika is basically a deity, as she’s a calamity that comes from the Dark Continent.
Where the anime is right now, Midoriya is extremely powerful. Where the manga is at he’s insane. And by his proclamation in the very first episode that he was going to be the number one hero, we know that in the future he’s going to be plus ultra god-tier. One for All is just such a strong quirk.
But Asta completely negates magic with his swords, and is invisible to detection because the lad literally has zero magic power. There’s also the whole demonic origin of his powers. And we all know that he’s only going to get stronger and stronger. 48. Akame.
Once a major part of Gotei 13, Aizen perhaps has the most memorable heel turns of all time in anime history. He definitely earns a spot on this list with his impressive Bankai that not many can overcome.
My Hero Academia is the newest shōnen anime to have taken over the Western world by storm, and for good reason — the unique spin on the concept of superheroes is equal parts familiar and enticing, making for a highly entertaining show indeed.
One of the major reasons why this show was so popular was because of the protagonist, Kenshiro.
The protagonist of Bleach who powered up to a level that no one could've dreamt of, it's incredible to think just how weak Ichigo actually was during the beginning of the series. However, it was only through sheer determination and hard work that he reached a level that even the Gotei 13 could admire.
Not just any series mind you — Naruto is one of the most popular Japanese exports of all time, and a major reason for this is the eponymous main character itself.
Eiichiro Oda can definitely write strong characters, and Luffy is certainly one of them — from both an emotional and physical perspective. The fact of the matter is that Luffy can definitely give any person on this list a run for their money, due to his incredibly durable physical nature.
The only individual to have two Minus powers in the series, Misogi Kumagawa is one of the creepiest antagonists of all time. Powers aside, it's his personality that sends chills down the spine on anyone who witnesses his actions in Medaka Box.
He is the main character of the story. Childhood “friend” of Katsuki Bakugo, whom he nicknames Katchan, he was born without Quirk. He wants to become the best superhero of his time, like his idol, the famous All Might: “To be able to save lives with a smile on your face”.

Even as a healer in Alfheim Online, Asuna can't resist a good fight.
As an esper, Tatsumaki can create psychic barriers, psychokinetically pick up and throw things around and control people's Chi energy to paralyze or inflict horrible pain without ever touching them. Her nickname likely comes from her ability to also whip up powerful psychic whirlwinds to blow away several targets in one fail swoop.
One Punch Man is about a superhero who can take out anyone with a single punch, meaning the side characters have a lot to compete with. Tatsumaki is definitely a contender. Nicknamed the "Tornado of Terror," she's one of the most powerful of the S-Class Rank Two heroes in the Hero Association's roster.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica puts a dark spin on the Magical Girl subgenre. It also features some of its most powerful spell-casters, like Homura Akemi.

As her name suggests, Sailor Moon's attacks are lunar-powered, as well as drawing strength from sound, healing and love -- the strongest force in Sailor Moon. Arguably, Sailor Saturn has the most destructive power of the Senshi with her planet-busting Silence Glaive, but she can only use this once.
