Levi is one of the strongest characters in the series and his title of ‘Humanity’s Strongest Soldier’ is completely justified given his strength and skillsets.

4. Gojo Satoru
After the release of Jujutsu Kaisen, the anime was instantly a fan favorite, of course. But a certain character was widely famed too, Gojo Satoru. His introduction was very good as he completely overwhelmed the demon king, Ryomen Sukuna.

He is initially described as solely responsible for the murder of his entire clan and his family, avoiding only his brother, Sasuke Uchiha, with the explanation that he was testing his abilities.
1. Zoro
Zoro is his first mate and right-hand man of Luffy. Luffy met Zoro in the first few episodes of the anime where Luffy saves him from a marine. and Luffy decides to add him to his crew. After freelancing as a bounty hunter, it seems pretty ironic that he decides to join a pirate crew. Zoro is a master swordsman who vows to be the strongest swordsman in the world as an oath to his childhood friend who died in an accident.
The green-haired Zoro has turned out to be the most loyal crewmate on the crew and has proved his loyalty many times. His character development was a very serious moment as he ignored his pride to get stronger and help Luffy achieve his dream.
