10 Most Powerful Anime Characters Of All Time
3. Naruto (Naruto)
Anime's quintessential rags to riches story, it's pretty hard to start from any lower a point than Naruto unless you're name is Guts. Hated by everyone and bad at everything, the reason so many people gravitated to the story was because every single victory by Naruto felt EARNED. So when he becomes one of the most powerful anime characters out there, you root for that too.
Not only does Naruto have the ability to reduce entire mountainsides to a glass floor, he has the intellect thanks to the mind games he had to play with his earliest opponents to use his abilities in clever ways. In the best fights in the show, he uses the fact that everyone thinks he's just an annoying reckless idiot to pull the rug out from under them to win the fight. After all, people forget that his first ability wasn't the rasengan, but the shadow clone jutsu, a tactical technique by nature.
Naruto has taken on ninjas, terrorists, ninja terrorists, monsters, and even the gods themselves. And you'd best believe it when I say he always comes out on top.
