Ever since the beginning of the medium, anime characters have been known for their incredibly strong abilities. Names like Vegeta, Goku, and Saitama have become synonymous with power-scaling discussions. With the recent anime adaptation of Solo Leveling, Sung Jin-woo has also joined the list of popular overpowered anime characters.
Despite the series showcasing Sung Jin-woo’s boundless potential for growth and the source material revealing his ability to defeat Antares, there is much speculation among fans about which other anime characters could potentially overpower him. By examining their strongest forms and notable accomplishments, it is feasible to compile a list of characters who would have no trouble defeating Sung Jin-woo.
Please note that this article includes spoilers for the following series: Bleach, One Punch Man, Dragon Ball, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, Fate, God of Highschool, The Misfit of Demon Academy, and The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.
8 Anime Characters Who Could Crush Sung Jin-woo
Aizen (Bleach)
Despite there being no actual feats showing Sung Jin-woo destroying a planet or reaching such an immense level of power, it has been established towards the end of the series that he possesses the ability to shake and potentially destroy a planet. This was demonstrated in his intense battle against the Monarch of Destruction, Antares, where the force of their clash caused tremors throughout continents on Earth. Additionally, Sung Jin-woo’s vast army of shadow soldiers gives him a significant advantage over Aizen in all aspects.
Despite Aizen’s established power towards the end of the Bleach story being comparable to Sung Jin-woo’s, it is also strong enough to impact the entire Soul Society. As Aizen is known as one of the most intelligent anime characters and is known for his meticulous planning, it is highly possible that he will devise strategies to counter Sung Jin-woo’s abilities.
Despite his impressive powers, Sung Jin-woo may not be able to survive Aizen’s spiritual pressure due to his lack of soul manipulation or instant healing abilities. Additionally, Aizen’s shikai, Kyouka Suigetsu, can easily manipulate all of Sung Jin-woo’s senses, leaving him vulnerable and with no known defense against it.
Saitama: The One Punch Man
Despite Sung Jin-woo’s ability to travel through dimensions, it cannot be denied that Saitama from One Punch Man is widely recognized as one of the most overpowered anime characters of the past decade. While Sung Jin-woo has showcased impressive abilities, none of his feats compare to the sheer firepower of Saitama who can easily destroy an entire planet with a single attack.
If pitted against each other, it can be assumed that Saitama would emerge as the victor due to his immense and rapid growth in strength against adversaries. Additionally, Saitama’s existing power is already capable of destroying entire planets with just one attack in the narrative.
Character Profile: Goku from Dragon Ball
Ever since his introduction, Goku has been a central figure in power scaling debates, with it now being customary to compare any character to him. Goku’s potential for growth is limitless and he surpasses Sung Jin-woo in raw strength, speed, and combat expertise.
Despite sharing the same infinite potential through their respective leveling systems, Sung Jin-woo is unable to tap into it during intense fights, unlike Goku whose “Infinite Saiyan potential”is comparable to Saitama’s rapid growth. While a battle between Sung Jin-woo and Goku would be challenging, Goku’s ability to continuously surpass his limits gives him an advantage and makes him likely to come out as the victor against any formidable opponent.
Day (Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure)
Despite Giorno’s lower overall power level and destructive abilities, as well as his lower battle IQ and experience compared to Sung Jin-woo, his full-powered stand, Gold Experience Requiem, surpasses anything Sung Jin-woo could possibly achieve.
Giorno’s Gold Experience Requiem serves as an undo button for any of Sung Jin-woo’s actions or attacks. Its independent nature also shields Giorno from being overpowered by Sung Jin-woo’s swiftness. In essence, even if Sung Jin-woo succeeds in injuring Giorno, Gold Experience Requiem will nullify the entire event and trap Sung Jin-woo in an endless cycle of death.
Gilgamesh: The Legendary Hero of Fate
Despite not possessing the ability to destroy planets or universes, Gilgamesh remains one of the most prominent figures in the Fate franchise, thanks to his charismatic nature and unwavering self-confidence. His possession of the Gate of Babylon grants him access to every weapon, whether tangible or conceptual.
Although it has not been shown in the anime, the Fate universe does not portray Gilgamesh as a planet destroyer. This is because Earth, the main planet in this universe, is safeguarded by powerful spells and mystical beings. However, it has been confirmed that Gilgamesh’s weapon, “Ea,”has the capability to annihilate entire realities.
The combination of Gilgamesh’s access to an almost infinite arsenal and his exceptional future sight abilities makes it highly likely that he would emerge victorious in a battle against Sung Jin-woo. Additionally, Gilgamesh stands out among other overpowered anime characters for having both functional foresight abilities and the intelligence to effectively use them.
Anos Voldigoad and The Misfit of Demon King Academy
The Misfit of Demon King Academy has brought Anos Voldigoad into the spotlight as a formidable anime character, gaining immense popularity in the past decade. Through his anime, he has showcased his immense strength by stopping time, repeatedly reviving others, and even reconstructing entire bodies for a single soul.
Anos Voldigoad’s greatest strength lies in his sword, which grants him the power to manipulate the laws of causality and effect, allowing him to accomplish anything. Similar to Giorno’s Gold Experience Requiem, Anos possesses overwhelmingly powerful abilities, making him one of the few characters in anime with such capabilities. In a battle between Anos and Sung Jin-woo, Anos would emerge victorious every time.
Jin Mori: The God of High School
Despite being portrayed as a mystical martial artist in the God of High School anime, Jin Mori has demonstrated incredible abilities such as manipulating dimensions and warping spacetime solely through his immense physical prowess when in his full-powered state.
This, combined with Jin Mori’s identity as Sun Wukong and his impressive feats that surpass even Sung Jin-woo’s destructive abilities, solidifies him as one of the select anime characters capable of defeating Sung Jin-woo.
The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.
Despite being a slice-of-life character, Saiki has already been established as an all-powerful, godlike being in the universe. He possesses a wide range of abilities, including teleportation, clairvoyance, infinite cloning, unrestricted time travel, and genetic manipulation.
Despite not possessing as many remarkable accomplishments as other “overpowered”anime characters, Saiki’s role as a gag character and his past displays of super strength, which can be amplified by an infinite number of clones, solidify his victory over Sung Jin-woo.
With the ability to manifest any object, phenomenon, or outcome with his thoughts, Saiki stands out as one of the most overpowered characters in gag anime, making him the obvious victor.
