Ranking the power of Dragon Ball characters is no easy task. Ranking characters that haven’t even fought each other can be a really exhausting task. In addition, it requires interpreting all canon work of the Dragon Ball Universe, both the anime and Toriyama’s manga, not to mention that before making a list you have to establish a few rules, such as, for example, not counting mergers, since They represent a temporary transformation. With that said, here’s a rough take on what could be the ten most powerful characters in the Dragon Ball Universe .
What are the strongest characters in Dragon Ball?
These are the ones we think could be considered the most powerful in anime.
Hit

A good way to start establishing a list of the most powerful characters in Dragon Ball is to take the Tournament of Power as a starting point, since many characters in the franchise apparently compete in it on equal terms.
Hit the Infallible, also known as the Legendary Assassin , is the ace of Team Universe 6. He’s not nearly as powerful as the other characters on this list, but he’s absurdly confident. He doesn’t even pay attention to other tournament fights, having full confidence in his powers. Hit is capable of a one-hit kill , something he technically can’t use in that tournament. He’s also a time skip ace, putting even Jiren on the spot.
toppo

He is the leader of the Troops of Pride, that is, the warriors of justice from Universe 11 . He is a very powerful individual thanks to his skill and intellect. He was one of the first participants in the Tournament of Strength, and also one of the first to be a God of Destruction candidate. Toppo possesses a divine aura, a type of ki with which he can experience an increase in power. His body is surrounded by the energy of destruction, and he is so agile and knows so many techniques that he can take on Super Saiyan Son Goku without using his full strength. However, in that fight, Goku ends up surprising him, transforming into Super Saiyan Blue. Toppo responds by significantly increasing his power, but the fight ends up being interrupted, so we never get to know the limits of this character.
Vegeta

Everyone is a fan of Vegeta. He has some truly extraordinary powers, but he is doomed to be the eternal second best. His fighting ability is unusual, but he is always behind Goku . Even so, this character has been evolving over the years, increasing his abilities at the same time that the manga was introducing more and more powerful characters. His Super Saiyan Blue form is proof of this, as he is capable of fissioning energy.
Broli

Broly’s power is unlimited , so we will never know its real limits. In Dragon Ball Super: Broly, the character does not stop evolving , becoming a really powerful warrior. The Saiyan fights and absorbs energy automatically, without knowing himself. Still, Goku and Vegeta were able to stop him, but were forced to fuse together to do so. Still, Broly loses. Not because of his powers, but because of his inexperience in combat . Had he controlled his powers, he probably would have swept away Gogeta.
Jiren

Raised in Universe 11 , Jiren went to great lengths to prove that he was the most powerful character in all of the Dragon Ball universes.
Jiren is a little talkative character and very introverted. This is due to their past experiences . His parents were murdered, and he was trained by Gitchen . He trained hard, forged various alliances, and overestimated his strength. When the evildoer returned, his master and several of his allies were killed in battle. None wanted to accompany Jiren to avenge his death, causing this character to stop trusting others .
For that reason, Jiren shows up for the Tournament of Power. His goal is to obtain the prize, the Super Dragon Balls, in order to resurrect his master . He only considered Son Goku a worthy opponent for him.
Goku

Goku is the most powerful mortal of all. Although his power was not very far from Broly’s or Jiren’s, this changed radically when he managed to perfectly master the ultra- instinct , making his body not reject the power. From there, the capabilities of our protagonist evolve by leaps and bounds, placing himself in a more than generous position in this top.
Gods of Destruction

We do not know these characters in depth, but the ones with names, that is, the ones we have been able to meet, are really powerful. They are below the Angels and everything we know about these beings we owe to them. His powers have no barriers. They are strong , control magic , and are also extremely intelligent .
Proof of this would be Lord Beerus , who manages to balance the population of Universe 7 by destroying what he considered to be ‘useless planets’.
The Angels

They instruct the Gods of Destruction and also protect them. However, not all of them have the same power, nor do we know their abilities separately. What we do know is that they use ultra instinct effortlessly , more than enough proof of the capabilities of these characters from the Dragon Ball multiverse.
The High Priest

This character was introduced in episode 55 of Dragon Ball Super. He is in charge of receiving visits on the planet of King of Everything. His children are Vados and Whis. The High Priest possesses great abilities given both by his ancestors and by God. For a long time he was the right hand of the Omni-King , a character who trusted him for absolutely everything. According to some fan theories, The High Priest would not only be the father of the angels, but also the only character capable of killing them, since in the episode itself where the Daishinkan is presented it is revealed that the angels can die, just the opposite. as it was believed until then.
Zeno The King of All (Omni-King)

Zeno is one of the most mysterious characters in all of Dragon Ball, and also the most powerful of all that we have seen. It is not known where it came from or how it became what it is. The only thing known about him is the information provided by the High Priest. The Japanese name of this character means ‘Almighty’ and he was able to survive the destruction of a universe without taking damage. However, this character is not linked to creation, but rather the opposite. He destroyed six universes in one tantrum, and although he has a childish demeanor, he is treated with great fear and respect by the Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kai . Quite the opposite of what Goku does, who treats him like a baby, shakes him and gives him nicknames, putting the universe in danger without realizing it.
