5 Anime Characters Who Can Definitely Defeat Saitama

If you think Saitama is unbeatable, you are wrong. These anime characters from different series can easily defeat Saitama.

Where most anime characters desire greater strength and worry about getting defeated, the only problem in Saitama’s life is that he cannot find a worthy opponent. It’s just a matter of a punch, and his enemies are dead meat. And most of the time, that punch doesn’t even need to be a serious one. One Punch Man manga is currently on its 25th volume, and Saitama is yet to find an opponent with whom he can test his full potential. But being the strongest character of the One Punch Man series doesn’t mean Saitama is undefeatable. There are a handful of anime characters who can easily crush him.

Anime Characters Saitama Don’t Stand A Chance Against

1. Griffith – Berserk

Griffith is one of the strongest anime villains of all time. He wasn’t that strong at first, but after his rebirth as Femto, Griffith gained new supernatural powers that were enough to defeat Saitama. Griffith’s Spatial Manipulation ability is enough to knock him down. With this ability, he can control the force of gravity and space, so he can easily repel any physical attack coming his way. As Saitama is only about physical strength, there’s nothing else he can do against him. Of course, one successful punch by Saitama and Griffith will be history, but he won’t be able to use his moves in the first place.

2. Rimuru Tempest – That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

Don’t go for his innocent face; Rimuru Tempest is one of the strongest anime characters and one who can easily defeat Saitama. Saitama can handle enemies in hand-to-hand combat easily, but what about an enemy with magical powers? The list of Rimuru’s powers is endless. Even if Saitama is able to throw a punch at Rimuru, he has the ability to regenerate from the damage quickly. As he can easily stop time, Saitama has no chance of fighting against him. Once Rimuru has frozen the time, he can use several of his other magical powers to defeat him.

3. Ryuk – Death Note

Battle does not just mean exchanging kicks and punches. Sometimes, it’s as easy as picking up a notebook and a pen and writing the name of your enemy. There’s literally nothing Saitama can do against Ryuk, the god of death. As he cannot touch him, he cannot use his signature move, Serious Punch, against Ryuk. Once Saitama’s name is written in the notebook, he is gone. The reason why we choose Ryuk instead of Light is that if they both are standing against each other, Saitama won’t give him the time to lift his pen.

4. Baraggan Louisenbairn – Bleach

Baraggan Louisenbairn is one of the major antagonists of the famous anime, Bleach. He is an Arrancer of the Aizen’s army, and his immense spiritual powers can easily defeat Saitama. His deadliest ability he can use against Saitama is Senescencia, using which he can slow the time near him. It doesn’t matter how fast Saitama is; once Baraggan Louisenbairn uses this technique, Saitama will become extremely slow. Another specialty of this attack is that Baraggan can rot anyone he touches by aging them in an instant. So, even if Saitama could match his physical strength, he doesn’t stand a chance against his mystical powers.

5. Zeno – Dragon Ball

Last and the strongest anime character who can easily defeat all other characters, along with Saitama, is Zeno. He is the god of the multiverse who is so strong that he can wipe out the entire universe with a single thought. If Saitama infuriates Zeno, he can kill him without even raising his hand. Some of you might be thinking, what if Zeno has to fight him, keeping this power aside? Well, Saitama still doesn’t have a chance as Zeno is immortal, and he can easily copy anyone’s ability. So Zeno can fight him by becoming anything he wants while being immortal.
