10 Anime Characters Who Can Defeat Whis from Dragon Ball

Dragon Ball is commonly seen as the standard for measuring power in the world of anime and manga. The question “But can they beat Goku?”is frequently posed when other characters receive a significant boost in power or acquire new abilities. In this article, we will explore a similar question but with a different character in mind: Whis, the Angel.

In Dragon Ball Super, he was first seen as the Guide Angel Attendant for Universe 7’s God of Destruction. Throughout the series, he has amazed fans with his incredible strength and is considered to be one of the most powerful angels. Like his fellow siblings, he possesses even more power than the God of Destruction he serves.

This article delves into the potential of various anime characters to defeat Dragon Ball’s Whis, considering their extensive range of abilities, some of which may still be undiscovered.

Strongest Anime Characters Who Can Defeat Dragon Ball’s Whis

Zeno (Dragon Ball)

On this list, Grand Zeno is one of the two Dragon Ball characters who holds the title of the strongest being in the series and the ruler of the entire multiverse. Whis would not stand a chance against the all-powerful Omni-King. Despite his childlike appearance, Grand Zeno wears peculiar robes with the kanji for “All”displayed prominently on the front.

Despite his lack of concern for life and other matters, it is stated that he destroyed 6 out of 18 universes because he believed there were an excessive number of universes. The Tournament of Power served as another justification for him to eliminate other universes, as he believed even 12 were too many to manage.

2) Gilgamesh: The Legendary King of Uruk (Fate series)

Gilgamesh’s divine constructs from the Gate of Babylon are his ultimate weapon in combat. Within this valuable treasury are countless formidable weapons, each possessing distinct magical abilities. Additionally, his Enkidu, the Chain of Heaven, has the ability to restrain any being with divinity.

As an Angel, Whis is considered a divine entity, which could potentially limit Enkidu’s abilities and movements. The power of the chain is directly correlated to the level of divinity possessed by its target, indicating that the chain becomes stronger as the target’s divinity increases.

Anos Voldigoad: The Misfit of Demon Academy

Anos Voldigoad is an outcast, not fitting in either at Demon Academy or in his universe due to his immense power. To prevent his mere presence from destroying the entire universe, he constantly keeps it suppressed.

In terms of raw physical power, he has destroyed numerous universes with his bare hands and can effortlessly support an entire universe with just his pinky finger. This is only a small demonstration of his true abilities. His ability to regenerate surpasses anything ever seen before, allowing him to bounce back from complete conceptual annihilation.

Even if Whis from Dragon Ball were to completely destroy his physical form, it would not be sufficient as his existence does not rely on his physical body.

Character Profile: Rimuru Tempest (That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime)

Despite Whis from Dragon Ball being a formidable opponent, some may find it peculiar that Rimuru Tempest is considered a potential contender. One might question how Rimuru could possibly measure up to a divine being who holds a place among the strongest in their universe. However, avid readers of the Web Novel have a different perspective.

By the conclusion, Rimuru’s ability to consume numerous universes and resistance to existence erasure has increased, similar to the technique Zeno employs on the rival universes in Dragon Ball Super.

Despite his current anime strength being inadequate to match Goku, his ultimate form in the web novel far surpasses anything even Zeno or the Angels could comprehend.

5) Grand Priest

The second character from Dragon Ball to appear on this list, and possibly the only one to surpass Whis, is the Grand Priest, who happens to be Whis’s father. He holds a higher position than Whis and all the other Angels in the Divine Hierarchy, second only to Grand Zeno. This is a testament to his immense power and abilities.

The Grand Priest’s Ki and magic are believed to possess unrivaled strength. It is probable that his special and regular moves surpass even Whis’ abilities. In a face-off, the Grand Priest would effortlessly overpower his son with his immense power.

Haruhi Suzumiya

Despite not being as well-known, Haruhi Suzumiya could easily rival Dragon Ball’s Whis in power. Whenever she feels bored or annoyed, she unconsciously unleashes her abilities, resulting in strange occurrences happening around her.

This encompasses closed space, an alternate reality that she fabricates and populates with destructive blue giants born from her frustration. As a result, appeasing Haruhi’s unpredictable nature would be Whis’ sole recourse.

Moreover, it was only Kyon, the human who served as an anchor for Haruhi’s emotions, who had the ability to convince her not to erase Whis. Although it would have been an epic battle, it is highly probable that the two would form a strong bond if they ever crossed paths.

Kami Tenchi: The All-Powerful Deity of Tenchi Muyo

Kami Tenchi, a being with no given name, possesses the power to rival and potentially surpass Whis from Dragon Ball. Interestingly, he is often referred to by fans as Kami Tenchi, as he is the nameless God of the Tenchi universe. The term “Kami”is commonly used to denote a divine being.

Kami Tenchi, unlike the divine beings in Dragon Ball, possesses infinite power and has no known vulnerabilities. He is present everywhere, all-knowing, and encompasses any other “omni”terms that one can imagine.

This clash between the two would not follow the usual format of a physical confrontation. Instead of relying on physical prowess or agility, it would be a cerebral and contemplative exchange. In essence, it would be a conflict between the created and the creator.

Madoka Kaname (Madoka Magica)

Madoka Kaname’s omnipresence allows her to exist in all timelines, posing a unique challenge for Dragon Ball’s Whis. In the event of an attack, would he be targeting a girl or a concept? Despite his immense power, is it even possible for him to strike an omnipresent being?

Despite Whis’ ability to manipulate time, it has been observed multiple times that Madoka’s omnipresence remains constant across all timelines. Therefore, even if time is rewound by Whis, her ability renders it useless.

Jin Mori – The God of High School

A showdown between Jin Mori and Whis from Dragon Ball would be highly anticipated. Jin, also known as the Monkey King Sun Wukong, is a formidable deity who has been reborn as a human. His character is based on the main protagonist of the 16th-century Chinese novel, Journey to the West, which is the same inspiration for the creation of Son Goku in Dragon Ball. Jin’s mastery of taekwondo enables him to move at lightning-fast speed and unleash powerful attacks capable of demolishing mountains.

While Whis would have the advantage in a physical confrontation, as evidenced by his ability to effortlessly evade Gogeta’s Instant Transmission, Jin’s potential knows no bounds. As the battle progresses, his mastery of renewal taekwondo allows him to surpass even Ultra Instinct and continually grow stronger with each passing moment.

Ren Fuji’s Character in Dies Irae

Throughout the visual novel Dies Irae, Ren Fuji takes on the role of the protagonist. As the story progresses, he eventually reaches a state of transcendence, earning him the moniker “Zarathustra Ubermensch”. As the novel nears its conclusion, Ren showcases incredible displays of power that surpass human comprehension.

Ren possesses the immense power to control time, a feat that is also achievable by Whis. However, Ren has the ability to manipulate time in areas where the concept of it does not exist, surpassing the capabilities of regular Dragon Ball characters and possibly even divine beings. This allows him to transcend conventional notions, a level that may surpass even Whis’ capabilities.
