One Punch Man is famous for its intense action, amazing battles, and, of course, the incredible strength of its main character, Saitama. But besides Saitama, the series also has many other powerful characters, each with their own special abilities that make them tough opponents.
Here’s a look at the top 10 strongest characters in One Punch Man, from the unbeatable Saitama to the cosmic-level threats that test the limits of the universe.
10. Evil Ocean Water
Evil Natural Water was a Dragon-level monster and a member of the Monster Association. It didn’t have its own mind and only wanted to cause destruction. It was created through ‘Psykos’ experiments, but it couldn’t be controlled, so it was kept locked away.
After being freed, it absorbed an ocean and turned into Evil Ocean Water. It didn’t take long for the monster to show its strength by easily defeating several A-rank heroes. Because it didn’t have organs, Evil Ocean Water was almost impossible to defeat. Only those with enough physical strength or strong mindset could cause any harm to the monster.
9. Metal Knight (Dr. Bofoi)
Although, Metal Knight(Dr. Bofoi) doesn’t often fight directly with enemies, his drones and advanced weaponry show he has a lot of hidden power. He specializes in large-scale destruction and could be a game-changer if he fully reveals his abilities. Metal Knight controls a fleet of powerful robots that fight for him, which are capable of causing huge damage and help Metal Knight fight enemies on a massive scale.
He is a smart strategist, using his huge resources to defeat strong enemies. His robot army lets him fight in large battles and take on threats worldwide. While he may not be as physically strong as some other characters, Metal Knight’s technology and ability to handle large-scale fights make him a very dangerous opponent.
8. Sage Centipede
Sage Centipede was a massive monster that fought against Blast. It was much larger than the Elder Centipede, which was already a terrifying monster. Sage Centipede was a Dragon-level creature and was sent by God to destroy the one who had turned against them.
Its huge size and speed made it a dangerous enemy that can cause a lot of destruction. The Sage Centipede can heal itself after being hurt, so even strong attacks might not be enough to stop it. It can also attack in many directions at once, making it unpredictable. While it might not be as flashy as some of the other powerful beings in One Punch Man, its raw strength and ability to keep fighting make it one of most powerful characters in One Punch Man.
7. Psykos-Orochi
The fusion of Psykos and Orochi created a huge monster that could destroy entire cities with powerful energy attacks and massive psychic abilities. After Orochi was defeated by Saitama, the monster absorbed Psykos and merged with her. Together, they had enough power to slice through the earth’s surface.
Psykos-Orochi could also heal itself, making it able to take huge amounts of damage without being badly hurt. Its psychic powers were so strong that they forced Tatsumaki to get serious in the fight.
6. Tatsumaki
Tatsumaki, also known as the Tornado of Terror, is considered one of the strongest psychics in the One Punch Man universe. As an S-Class hero, her telekinetic powers have no limits. She can lift and control huge objects, like entire buildings or even parts of the Earth’s crust.
Even though she is small in size, Tatsumaki’s psychic powers make her one of the most feared beings on Earth. Her strong personality and determination to protect humanity push her to keep improving her abilities, making her one of the most powerful S-Class heroes.
5. Boros
Boros, the leader of the Dark Matter Thieves, is a powerful enemy known for his strength and cruelty. His alien race is capable of destroying entire planets, and Boros himself is a perfect example of their power. He is one of the few characters who actually got Saitama to pay attention during a fight, especially with his deadly attack, ‘the Collapsing Star Roaring Cannon‘, which could destroy entire planets.
Boros’ real power comes from his ability to heal and adapt, allowing him to keep fighting at full strength even after taking heavy damage. His ultimate attack, the Collapsing Star Roaring Cannon, was so strong that it almost destroyed the Earth. Even though Saitama defeated him with one punch, Boros’ ability to cause destruction and keep fighting made him one of the strongest enemies in One Punch Man.
4. Blast
Blast is the top-ranked S-Class hero and is highly respected in the Hero Association for his work. Although he’s been away from the spotlight for a long time, he made his full appearance in the Monster Association arc.
In that arc, Blast showed his strength by fighting Garou, who had gained a huge power boost from God. He also managed to move faster than Flashy Flash, who is known for his speed.
Even though he’s the highest-ranked hero, Blast stays out of the public eye, often working behind the scenes to protect humanity from huge threats. His power is enormous, but he remains mysterious, he operates on a level beyond most other heroes.
3. Cosmic Garou
Garou’s transformation into Cosmic Garou is one of the scariest changes in One Punch Man. Originally a human villain, he becomes a god-like being with unbelievable power. After being influenced by God, his strength grows to the point where he can change reality, launch powerful attacks, and heal from almost any injury. Cosmic Garou becomes a being so powerful that he can almost match Saitama in destructive force.
Cosmic Garou’s ability to control the laws of nature makes him a dangerous threat. He keeps getting stronger, able to adapt to every challenge he faces. He isn’t just physically strong anymore, his new form gives him nearly unlimited power, and it seems like there’s no limit to how much stronger he can get.
2. God
God is a mysterious being in One Punch Man whose full powers are still mostly unknown, but its impact on the world is clear. It exists far beyond the reach of any normal being and can control reality and events across the universe. While we don’t fully understand what God is, its powers seem to go beyond just physical matter, giving it control over space and time itself.
One of God’s most important abilities is giving powers to others, like it did with Garou, who changed drastically after coming under God’s influence. This ability lets God affect the world in big ways, raising the stakes for everyone involved. Whether by corrupting people or changing reality itself, God’s power is vast and cosmic. This make him one of the most strongest characters in the series.
1. Saitama
Saitama, the main hero of the series, is an unbeatable powerhouse with strength that has no limits. He can defeat any enemy with just one punch, a skill he developed through a simple but tough training routine. His character is all about being the strongest, his ability to never lose is what defines the show.
Even though he’s incredibly strong, Saitama’s personality stays grounded in humor and a sense of boredom. His power is so overwhelming that even the most dangerous threats in the One Punch Man world are hardly a challenge for him. For Saitama, some of the most dangerous fights no longer feel exciting, and he struggles to find an opponent who can actually challenge him. This creates a lot of the humor and character growth in the series.
