For our Top Ten Most Powerful Chainsaw Man characters I'm actually going to be having some fun with this one and prioritizing characters we know the most about, while adding Devils we don't know as much about to our runner-up section.
But don't worry, if the Devil deserves a spot within the top ten most powerful Chainsaw Man list I'm going to be adding their deserved slot right next to them.
That said, we have a ton of the most popular Chainsaw Man characters among the most powerful list, so this should definitely be a fun one to break down for you guys.

TOP TEN STRONGEST CHAINSAW MAN CHARACTERS
MOST POWERFUL CHAINSAW MAN CHARACTERS
HONORABLE MENTION: HIMENO
Starting off our list of the most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is an honorable mention: Himeno.
While Himeno may not actually have a spot among the most powerful Chainsaw Man characters with a list of ten (or possibly even fifteen), she would show up somewhere within the fifteen to twenty range.
She's also a fan favorite, which is why she's coming in on top to kickstart this one and have some fun.

RUNNER UP: BEAM
Next up among our most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Beam, coming in as an actual runner up that is not far off from the top ten, but just slightly missing it.
Some would argue that Himeno is actually stronger than Beam, and since a decent argument could be made for either of them I decided to keep them as both an honorable mention and runner up at the top of our list.
You guys generally like having some fun fan favorites mixed into our lists as runner ups and/or honorable mentions, but now they've prepared us to really get into it!

NUMBER TEN: REZE
Starting off our real list of the top ten most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Reze!
Lazy Reze, also known as Reze or Bomb Girl, is a hybrid of the Bomb Devil from the Soviet Union. Lady Reze is sent on a mission to bring back the Chainsaw Man's heart and is the primary antagonist of The Bomb Girl arc!

NUMBER NINE: KATANA MAN
Coming in at number nine among our most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Katana Man.
Katana Man, also known as Samurai Sword, is another human devil hybrid who fused with the Katana-Devil. His grandfather was the Mob Boss killed by Denji and because of that he teamed up with Akane to get revenge on Denji and steal his heart.
He is also a primary antagonist, like Lazy Reze, but this time of his own arc: the Katana Man arc.

NUMBER EIGHT: POWER
Next up among our most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Power at number eight.
Power is a Blood Fiend and a Public Safety Devil Hunter who is part of Makima’s special squad. In her original demon form, Power claimed to be highly feared to the point where other demons would flee from her scent, but this is probably just a boast from Power.
She tends to fight as if she has something to gain and is certain of her victory, and has no problems with running away from a fight where she is outmatched; making her ranking even slightly higher (as ironic as that is).

NUMBER SEVEN: AKI HAYAKAWA
Coming in at number seven among our most powerful Chainsaw Man character, though some good arguments have been made that he could potentially be stronger than two characters positioned above him, is Aki Hayakawa.
Hayakawa was a Public Safety Devil Hunter, working under Makima's special squad. He had contracts with the Curse Devil and Future Devil, and a former contract with the Fox Devil. He was killed and possessed by the Gun Devil, thus becoming a Gun Fiend
After losing favor with the Fox Devil, Aki was taken to the Future Devil, who is a prisoner of public safety, and managed to obtain a contract to use his abilities in exchange for letting Future Devil live within his right eye.
What also makes Aki extremely strong is that he has the ability to see a few seconds into the future. He uses it to predict his opponent’s attacks and plan accordingly.

NUMBER SIX: KISHIBE
Next up among our Most Powerful Chainsaw Man characters, just missing the top five most powerful, is Kishibe!
Kishibe is a Public Safety Demon Hunter from Special Division 1, but after the assault on Special Divisions, he became captain of Special Division 4. Kishibe is the strongest member of Special Division 4 according to Makima, followed by the Angel Devil. He has described himself as the strongest demon hunter. Due to his immense strength and skill, he often undertakes his work with calm formality, showing little emotion in doing so.
Kishibe has contracts with at least three evils that they have described as “quite dangerous.” Although initially rejected by them for not being someone special, Kishibe proved to be strong enough to easily subdue two of the fiends working for Quanxi without help. Kishibe is extremely strong for a human, he is an extremely fast fighter and has superhuman reflexes.

NUMBER FIVE: QUANXI
Starting off our top five most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Quanxi.
Some people say Aki could surpass Quanxi and Kishibe on this list, but I think the current placement is fair for their power levels.
Though, I'm curious to hear your opinion!
Quanxi is a demon hunter from China. Quanxi possesses a level of strength that has been described by Hirofumi Yoshida as beyond human ability. When she wields swords, she can cut through dozens of humans and dolls without slowing down and only stops once her weapons are destroyed by the force of her own attacks. Even one blocked hit was enough to knock out both Aki Hayakawa and the Angel Devil.
That last sentence also helps my case a bit.

NUMBER FOUR: SANTA CLAUS
Next up, at number four among our most powerful Chainsaw Man characters, is Santa Claus.
And, no, not just because Christmas is actually coming soon here in the states.
Santa Claus is a person who has a contract with Doll Devil that allows them to control several different bodies, one of which is posing as a Devil Hunter from Germany. Santa Claus is the main antagonist of the International Assassins arc. Santa Claus is a tactical and strategic being. He hid within the Soviet Union while using a doll perfect for haggling and bargaining.
Santa Claus can create dolls with people to obey his will. The effect is caused by touch and spreads contagiously as each doll touches another person, allowing them to create an army of dolls from the crowd. The dolls can also transform one of their arms into blades including themselves. However, Santa Claus must remain in the nearby area to maintain control of his doll army, and the conversion process has no effect on demons or devils.

NUMBER THREE: ASA MITAKA
Starting off our top three most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is a fun one I only saw a few lists remember to add into their original list builds: Asa Mitaka!
is a high school student who became the host of the War Devil, Yoru, making her the War Fiend. She attends Fourth East High School.
After having her body and half her brain taken over by the War Devil, while still retaining her consciousness, Asa is able to tap into the powers of the War Devil.
With those powers she can create weapons, has enhanced strength and speed and is extremely powerful.
MOST POWERFUL CHAINSAW MAN CHARACTERS
NUMBER TWO: MAKIMA
At number two, just missing the number one spot among our most powerful Chainsaw Man characters is Makima!
Makima generally gets slotted in the top three most powerful slots in these lists, even with the addition of all our Devils that you can find in the runner up section.
Makima is a public safety demon hunter, who took Denji as her human pet. She is later revealed to be the Devil of Control, who embodies the fear of control. She is the main heroine and acts as the main antagonist of the public safety saga. Makima is extremely cunning and manipulative. She controls Denji with promises of a romantic and sexual relationship while she threatens to exterminate him if he disobeys her.
Makima possesses great physical strength that allows her to fight effectively in hand-to-hand combat without depending on any of her subordinates. Her force was great enough to overwhelm Pochita and break her chainsaw with her physical blows.
The extent of Makima’s abilities is largely unknown. She has displayed a variety of abilities that can be her default ability as Control Devil or the ability of another demon that she controls.

MOST POWERFUL CHAINSAW MAN CHARACTERS
NUMBER ONE: DENJI
Coming in at the top slot among our most poweful Chainsaw Man characters is Denji, Chainsaw Man.
While Denji does not necessarily possess the highest intelligence, he is capable of clever ideas to take down demons, such as setting himself on fire and using the emitted light to weaken Santa Claus enough to kill her.
By pulling the cord that comes out of his chest, Denji can transform into a bloodthirsty chainsaw devil. Denji needs blood to use his abilities, so if he doesn’t have enough, he can’t fully transform, he can still manifest chainsaws, but they are much shorter and weaker. After transforming into Full Devil Mode and being himself again, his arms in this hybrid form seem to have changed to a more mechanical structure, as opposed to the more humanistic appearance before his transformation. He possesses greater strength, durability, and endurance.
As part of his transformation, Denji produces fully functional chainsaws for his arms, legs, and head. These chainsaws are extremely effective at cutting demons, as they can directly cut the Bat Devil’s arm. He is able to manifest short chainsaws under his feet, which he can stick on walls and even walk on. Like a complete devil, all four of his arms have chainsaws. If he needs full use of his arms and legs, Denji’s chainsaws automatically retract into his body. This has yet to be seen in the full devilish form of him. As Makima reveals, the Chainsaw Devil is capable of consuming other Demons, erasing them from public consciousness, this makes them unable to revive since the fear of them no longer exists, demonstrated by the fact that Kishibe did not know about things. historical events such as the Holocaust, the Nazis and even the nuclear bomb, revealing that the chainsaw devil at some point consumed his relative devils.
