Power and potential are universal themes, but in manga, they take on whole new levels of incredible strength, skill, and determination. These larger-than-life characters amass armies of fans through their epic battles, intense rivalries, and unforgettable feats. So with that in mind, here are the 5 strongest of all time.

2. Saitama

Saitama is the goofy character known as One Punch Man. He is a superhero capable of easily defeating any opponent with a single punch, which has made him feel a sense of boredom since no enemy can truly challenge him. He is also extremely humble, nonchalant, and indifferent, often being more concerned about sales at his local grocery store than about his own fame. He is undeniably the most powerful hero in the series.
