One of the most dynamic and constantly evolving elements of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s original manga series, “Chainsaw Man,”is the ranking of its strongest characters. In the beginning, this list mostly consisted of human characters, but as the series progressed, the number of powerful Devils introduced in the second part caused a significant shift in the rankings.
Similarly, the list of top Chainsaw Man characters is now largely controlled by the Devilkind. While there are some familiar individuals from the previous list, such as part 2, it is evident that the addition of the new Primal and Horsemen Devils has greatly diminished the representation of human characters.
Please note: Although the Death Devil is hinted to be one of the most powerful characters in the series, there is currently not enough information available to include it in this context.
Top Ten Strongest Devils
Chainsaw Man Characters Across the Series
Fire Devil
Despite the lack of information available about the Fire Devil at the time this article was written, what is known is sufficient to classify it as one of the most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man. According to reports, the Fire Devil’s strength increases with the number of people who have signed a contract with it, giving it the potential for limitless power. While this power does have a limit, it could potentially encompass the entire world’s population, earning it the title of “infinite”strength.
The Fire Devil also grants its signatories the power to transform into a new, formidable form according to their wishes. Yuko, a human character, serves as a prime example of this when she transforms into a being that allows her to put an end to the bullying at her school. This further suggests that with a strong enough desire, one can retain their consciousness while transforming into a tremendously powerful entity.
Bomb Devil – no change needed
Despite its potential, the Fire Devil has faced criticism for its lack of on-screen battles compared to other well-known Devils. The Bomb Devil, for instance, stands out as one of the most formidable and dominant Devils within the series due to its established strength and reputation.
Despite her exceptional combat skills, Lady Reze, the Bomb Devil, remains a formidable threat due to her intelligence and abilities. However, her lower ranking on this list can be attributed to her powers being primarily destructive, with no known special abilities. Nonetheless, her prowess in combat and destructive powers still earn her a deserving spot on this list.
Hell Devil
It is undeniable that the Hell Devil ranks among the top 10 most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man, as it embodies the terror of hell itself. One of the main reasons for its inclusion is its ability to take the form of a massive, six-fingered hand that has the power to send its targets straight to hell. Even the formidable Chainsaw Devil is no match for its ultimate form as the Hero of Hell.
Despite its lackluster performance in combat, the Hell Devil was utilized as a mere supporting character in the Chainsaw Devil’s powerful Hero of Hell form. Nevertheless, its abilities, the high price it demands in contracts, and its embodiment of Hell’s terror justify its inclusion here.
7) Gun Devil
Despite only being at 20% strength in both Fiend and Fragmented Devil Forms, the Gun Devil’s power was evident through the immense destruction it caused, making it the most devastating event in the series thus far.
This fact is corroborated by the backstory of its origin, which arose due to the widespread use of guns as weapons against the Devil during times of crime and civil unrest. This ultimately resulted in the Devil’s creation after a terrorist incident involving firearms in America.
Within just five minutes of its debut, the Gun Devil mercilessly took the lives of 1.2 million individuals. This Devil’s exceptional combat skills can be credited to its Bullet Projection capabilities, enabling it to shoot bullets directly through its victims’ heads. Despite being in its 20% Fragmented Devil form, the Gun Devil displayed enough strength to earn a significant spot among the most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man.
Famine Devil Fami
Despite her impressive ranking as the sixth strongest character in Chainsaw Man, Famine Devil Fami owes much of her power to her Horseman Devil heritage. This places her in a league above all other characters, except for the infamous Primal Devils and other Horsemen. However, her lower placement on the list can be attributed to two key factors. Firstly, fans have not yet witnessed her engage in any fights at the time of writing this article.
Despite being a fan favorite, her abilities and fighting strength are not particularly impressive. Her main abilities consist of Enhancing Healing, Enslavement, and Teleportation, which are currently known to the public.
Despite being the first and last in the group, the formermost and lattermost do not possess offensive tendencies. Additionally, while Enslavement may be useful, there are restrictions on the amount of time a Devil can be summoned and used repeatedly. Therefore, she is currently regarded as the weakest of the Horsemen.
War Devil Yoru
In the world of Chainsaw Man, Yoru, the War Devil, is currently the strongest character, surpassing even Fami, the Famine Devil. This is especially evident in light of recent events, as the concept of war has resurfaced and instilled great fear. As a result, Yoru’s abilities have greatly intensified, including her speed, strength, and weaponization prowess. Additionally, the requirements for her weaponization have been reduced due to her power boost.
Despite facing some of the most dangerous enemies in the series, her exceptional fighting skills have allowed her to hold her own. Along with the valuable experience gained while serving the Chainsaw Man Church alongside host Asa Mitaka, it is evident that Yoru rightfully belongs among the top five strongest characters in Chainsaw Man.
4) Control Devil
Fans have witnessed the Control Devil in both versions and have recognized it as one of the strongest Devils in the entire series. Its abilities consist of memory manipulation, the ability to dominate those it perceives as weaker, borrowing the senses of others, teleportation, force manipulation, and exceptional intelligence.
Makima, known as the Control Devil, was renowned for her strategic thinking and meticulous planning, carefully calculating her moves towards a long-term goal. In addition to her exceptional hand-to-hand combat skills, these qualities solidify the Control Devil’s position as one of the most formidable characters in Chainsaw Man.
Chainsaw Devil
Undoubtedly, the Chainsaw Devil’s ultimate form as the Hero of Hell is considered to be one of the most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man. This version of the Chainsaw Devil instills fear in all other Devils, as it possesses the ability to devour and erase them from existence, eradicating the fear they embody. In addition, the Hero of Hell has displayed incredible speed, strength, resilience, and regenerative abilities throughout the entire series.
The Hero of Hell possesses the ability to detach its chainsaws and utilize them for capturing opponents, pulling them towards itself, or maneuvering across a battlefield. Coupled with its wild and relentless nature, which leads it to attack all individuals in its vicinity, including its summoner, this makes it undoubtedly one of the most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man.
2) The Story of the Falling Devil
The series has consistently portrayed the Primal Devils as the most powerful Chainsaw Man characters at the time of writing this article.
The Falling Devil perfectly embodies this peak, possessing abilities such as near-immortality and a tremendous healing ability, a direct link to Hell, control over gravity, the ability to shoot energy beams, manipulation of thoughts and emotions, creation of objects, control over the body, and much more.
The combination of all these elements creates an incredibly powerful force that even War Devil Yoru and Denji, also known as Chainsaw Man, were unable to stop. They were ultimately defeated by the Falling Devil and its allies, and would have perished if not for the intervention of Control Devil Nayuta. The fact that two of the top five strongest characters in the series had to be rescued by a single Horsemen Devil serves as a testament to the immense power of the Falling Devil.
Darkness Devil
The Darkness Devil stands at the pinnacle of the most powerful Chainsaw Man characters introduced thus far. As the embodiment of primal fear associated with darkness, it possesses many of the same fundamental abilities as the Falling Devil, another Primal Devil. These abilities include near-absolute immortality, darkness manipulation, the Blade of Darkness, Force Manipulation, the ability to negate regenerative powers, and the ability to fully manifest other Devils.
Despite Makima’s immense power, she was unable to defeat it and was ultimately forced to retreat without attempting a comeback. With its impressive abilities, undefeated track record, and ability to embody one of humanity’s deepest fears, the Darkness Devil rightfully holds the title of the strongest character in Chainsaw Man.
In Conclusion
Despite the strong possibility that the Death Devil would emerge as the victor, there is not enough information currently available to accurately rank it among the top 10 most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man. Therefore, the aforementioned list only includes those with sufficient knowledge to be definitively included.
