It’s Time To Welcome 2026’s Most Broken Anime Character That Can Easily Defeat Goku

This article contains spoilers for the Jujutsu Kaisen Manga.

When people talk about the strongest anime characters, Son Goku from Dragon Ball is often mentioned. He started as a relatively ordinary character, but quickly grew incredibly powerful throughout the series, reaching levels of strength almost no one can match. Goku is stronger, faster, and more resilient than most anime characters, though a few still stand a chance against him.

A new character from the anime Jujutsu Kaisen is emerging as a potential threat to Goku, despite Jujutsu Kaisen generally being considered less powerful than Dragon Ball. Many fans believe Takaba, a recently introduced sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen, possesses abilities powerful enough to defeat even the strongest opponents, including Goku. Takaba first appeared in Season 3, Episode 3, and is expected to become increasingly important. His unique cursed technique, called Comedian, seems to have limitless possibilities.

Goku Is One Of The Most Overpowered Anime Characters of All Time

Son Goku, from the Dragon Ball series, is known for being incredibly powerful. He’s demonstrated amazing abilities throughout the show, and combined with Dragon Ball’s popularity, many fans consider him one of the strongest anime characters ever.

The latest Dragon Ball Super features Goku battling incredibly powerful foes, including Beerus, a God of Destruction. Their fight was so devastating that the Kais feared the universe would be destroyed and tried to intervene. Goku’s power is immense – he’s capable of destroying planets, and potentially even the entire universe.

Goku is incredibly fast – always has been, but especially later in the series. He eventually became much faster than the speed of light.

Despite all his power, Goku isn’t actually the strongest character in his own world. He’s definitely one of the strongest anime characters overall, which is why it would be shocking to many fans if a character from Jujutsu Kaisen could defeat him.

Jujutsu Kaisen Introduces New Overpowered Character

Takaba Makes His Entrance in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 3

The latest season of Jujutsu Kaisen has already introduced some incredibly powerful characters, and Takaba, revealed in episode 3, is one of them. Despite being a comedian with no actual fighting experience, Takaba possesses surprisingly strong abilities.

Viewers who only watch the anime initially see Takaba as a struggling comedian. However, he’s actually a participant in the Culling Game, though he doesn’t know it yet. The game has unknowingly activated his Cursed Technique, which quickly proves to be incredibly powerful – arguably one of the strongest in the series. Takaba’s main limitation is simply that he hasn’t fully understood or mastered his own abilities.

Takaba’s Powers Are Almost Boundless

Takaba is an incredibly strong character with seemingly limitless power. Some believe his potential actually surpasses even that of Jujutsu Kaisen’s most powerful figures, like Gojo Satoru and Ryomen Sukuna, and there’s a good reason to think so.

Takaba possesses a unique ability called ‘Comedian’ that’s incredibly powerful. He recently developed this cursed technique just before the Culling Game, and it lets him alter reality based on what he finds amusing. Essentially, if Takaba thinks something is funny, he can make it real. This makes him an exceptionally powerful character, not just in Jujutsu Kaisen, but within the broader anime landscape.

If Takaba found Goku’s death amusing, Goku would instantly die. This means that even though Goku is much faster and stronger, Takaba could still win if he effectively uses his Cursed Technique.

Takaba enjoys a challenge, and if he sees fighting Goku as a fun, equal match, he’ll simply increase his power to meet Goku’s level. Remarkably, he can even recover from almost being defeated just by being amused.

In the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, Takaba has an incredibly powerful ability: he can even bring people back to life. His powers go beyond the boundaries of life and death, and the author hasn’t shown the full extent of what he can do because he’d be unstoppable. Many fans believe that if Takaba fully utilized his abilities, he could become even stronger than Gojo and potentially be the most powerful sorcerer ever.

Anime fans are eager to see more of Takaba, but his full potential hasn’t been revealed yet. He’ll participate in the Culling Game, but his most important role won’t begin until after Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen and the start of the final battle. Takaba is expected to be crucial in defeating a very powerful enemy, and remarkably, he can do all this even before fully mastering his abilities.

Okay, so Takaba is seriously strong, no doubt about that! But it’s awesome to think about how many Jujutsu Kaisen characters could actually put up a real fight against Goku. While I think Takaba has the best shot and might even pull off a win, there are definitely others who wouldn’t just go down immediately. It’s fun to imagine how they’d fare against such a powerful opponent!

Gojo Satoru’s main ability is called Infinity, which creates a nearly impenetrable defense. Even with his immense strength, Goku doesn’t have any attacks that could overcome Infinity. Furthermore, Gojo’s Unlimited Void technique is devastating to the brain, meaning he could win a fight against Goku if he avoids being instantly defeated.

Dragon Ball characters often break the rules of what’s possible, so it wouldn’t be shocking if Goku somehow overcame even the concept of infinity. Ultimately, fans love watching Goku become more powerful and face new obstacles, and he’s likely to keep getting stronger until he’s considered the most powerful anime character ever.
