15 strongest fighters in the multiverse, ranked

Divine beings such as Angels and Gods of Destruction are not included in this article. Also, only characters that are currently alive are included.

At the beginning of Dragon Ball franchise, fans were introduced to a series that took power scaling to heights rarely seen before. With characters strong enough to destroy the moon as early as the original series, the strength some of these characters boast is among the greatest in the anime and manga industry.

As such, as the franchise has grown over the decades, so have the heroes and villains within it. At the current stage, everyone is much more powerful than ever before and the multiverse has shown that this overpowered nature is not unique to just Universe 7. So let's go over the strongest characters in Dragon Ball multiverse.

Buu would have been an incredible asset to Universe 7

An old powerhouse

Majin Buu was an ancient evil in Universe 7 who once terrorized the cosmos millions of years ago. In the modern era, however, Buu has become one of the Z-Fighters' main allies and is an absolute powerhouse to boot, canonically having the power to wipe out entire galaxies and universal sectors. In the Tournament of Power, he would have been of great help if he hadn't fallen asleep.

Kefla was enough to fight with Goku and Gohan

Universe 6's Fusion

As soon as fusion was allowed in the Tournament of Power, Kale and Caulifla immediately jumped at the opportunity to use it by fusing into Kefla, who is one of their universe's strongest fighters. Not only was her strength immense, she even managed to match Super Saiyan Blue Goku in the anime, although her fight was against Ultimate Gohan in the manga. In the end, Kefla proved to be a huge challenge for the heroes to overcome.

Hits Time-Skip gave him a big advantage

The legendary assassin

Here was first introduced in vs. The Universe 6 arc, where he used his Time Skip ability masterfully to defeat Vegeta and push Goku to the absolute limit. He returned in the Tournament of Power and proved to be a deadly opponent who could manipulate and pause time itself on a whim, only to be defeated by Jiren in the end. While he may not beat Kefla in terms of raw power, Hit's time manipulation definitely gives him the edge.

Gamma 1 showed tremendous determination and strength

A powerful Android

The Gamma Androids were introduced in the Super Hero arc, where they went up against Gohan, Piccolo and, eventually, Cell Max. Gamma 1 was shown to be equal to Ultimate Gohan as they both fought to a standstill. Many believe he shouldn't be ranked this high, but due to the series' infamous powercreep placing him as an enemy that came in a later arc, he's likely above the previous entries in strength.

Toppo was strong enough to become a fighter

Universe 11's new god

One of the most anticipated aspects of the Tournament of Power was Toppo's ultimate power-up, which came in the form of his incredible Destroyer state. As one of the most powerful figures in his universe, he was chosen to become Universe 11's new God of Destruction, giving him access to the energy of destruction and making him one of the most terrifying enemies in the entire tournament, whose aura alone could dispel any incoming attack.

Jiren was the ultimate warrior in universe 11

An absolute powerhouse

Jiren's role in the Tournament of Power was an insurmountable obstacle that no character could overcome alone. His strength and Ki control was so great that despite taking a beating from Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku, he still managed to survive Goku's ultimate form, only losing in the end due to the combined attack of Universe 7 and him being in a weakened state. Fans don't know what Jiren has been up to since the tournament ended, so he's very likely even stronger right now.

Orange Piccolo is the Namekian's ultimate state

Piccolo's Redemption

In the modern era of Dragon Ballit has been clarified that the 5 main heroes of the series are all more or less equal in overall strength, so their placements may be interchangeable. Orange Piccolo was the Namekian's way of existing on this level, as his power allowed him to take on the terrifying Cell Max and easily defeat Gamma 2. Although Piccolo has always been more of a strategist than a brawler like the others, his strength in this form is truly amazing.

Broly has the most potential in the series

The legendary Super Saiyan

In terms of raw potential and room for growth, Broly surpasses everyone else, as his first real fight ever led to a transformation that was leagues stronger than even Super Saiyan Blue. But the trade off here was that Broly lost his mind when he unlocked his strongest form. This has changed in the current setting, since Broly has finally learned to control this insane power, allowing him to exist on the same level as Goku, Vegeta, Gohan and Piccolo, although he still has a lot to learn with it.

Granolah defeated Goku and Vegeta

The strongest cereal fruit

Granolah's path to power was very different from the others in the series, as he entered the upper powers due to a wish that made him the strongest mortal in the universe in exchange for many years of his life. The resulting warrior managed to defeat Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku in a single hit and even matched Ultra Ego Vegeta by unlocking another state, proving to be one of the strongest in the multiverse.

Ultra Ego Vegeta summoned the power of the destroyer

The Saiyan Prince

When Goku awakened Ultra Instinct, Vegeta attempted to do so as well but ultimately failed due to how the technique went against him as a warrior. Instead, he eventually realized Ultra Ego, which uses the God of Destruction's innate techniques and allows them to harbor the Energy of Destruction, with which he was able to overpower the version of Granolah as one-shot Ultra Instinct Goku, forcing him to unlock a new form. At the end of their fight, Granolah realized that the only way to defeat Vegeta was with an attack that would kill them both, showing Vegeta's strength with Ultra Ego.
