RANKING The STRONGEST Characters in Dragon Ball Z | Tier List 

Mystic Gohan is the strongest unfused character, argument ended. This was the 2000s message boards.

this list has some hot takes frfr

I think Goku has to be number one pretty cleanly. 10 years is more than enough time for Goku to not only catch up to Gohan but surpass him. The gap between SS3 Goku and Gohan wasn’t so large that Goku would be behind a rusty Gohan after 10 years

Gohan being the strongest is such a myth. Vegeta literally said that Goku is the strongest. End of Z Goku is stronger than anyone. He fodderises gohan

Goten and Trunks being weaker than Frieza is completely wrong. Especially when pre time chamber trunks scared the hell out of 18 with a single blast. You clearly dont understand power scaling and are not qualified to make this video properly.

Vegeta has been the strongest character at least 4 if not 5 times in DBZ, excluding the main villains: From his introduction to the Saiyan Saga until Freeza got introduced, then among Freeza's opponents, he remained the strongest until Goku completed his training on his spaceship before landing on planet Namek. Then after Goku got his body stolen by Ginyu, Vegeta got a zenkai boost making him stronger than the Ginyu Force and beating up Goku that got stuck in the healing tank for a while, until he got fully healed and a zenkai boost for him as well. When Vegeta unlocked SSJ, he managed to do better against the Androids than Goku and even Future Trunks ever did. He let Android 19 absorbed a lot of his energy and still destroyed him easily, to the point Dr. Gero got scared and didn't even try to fight him even though he was really confident in front of Goku (and he wasn't aware of his heart virus). When he fought 18, even though he totally lost against her, he resisted so much longer than Trunks and Piccolo did against 17, even though 17 is stronger than 18 and she was playing with Vegeta...but he was still fighting with a broken arm and just kept getting back up hit after hit, while Trunks and Piccolo just went down with 2 hits each of them. Even without his heart virus, Goku wouldn't have done any better, Piccolo himself stated that and he's both the best fight analyser and power levels reader of them all. After his time chamber training and achieving his "Super Vegeta" form, Vegeta was the most powerful character once again. Even with Trunks, because Vegeta knew the bulky SSJ form above his own would be totally useless because of the loss of speed it would give him, so he achieved it but just gave it up knowing this would be pointless anyway, unlike Trunks which is still far less experienced of a fighter than his father. Before Goku and Gohan were done with their training and Cell becoming perfect, Vegeta was legit the strongest character, period. When he went Majin, before Majin Buu was released and Goku revealed his SSJ3 form, Vegeta could arguably be considered the strongest character at this point, because he managed to knock out Goku while they were still both SSJ2, and even though Goku had technically a unliving body, Vegeta benefited from his Majin state that granted him more endurance, with extra resistance to pain and damages, even crippling ones like Spopovitch showed sooner. Just saying!

To say that Gohan SS wasn’t as strong as SS Goku in the Namek Saga is insane.

My personal top ten from strongest to weakest would be 1. Goku 2. Gohan 3. Vegeta 4. Super Buu 5. Piccolo 6. Perfect Cell 7. Android 17 8. Android 18 9. Future Trunks 10. Goten/Trunks

Do we count that one short film where goku and vegeta said that goten and trunks could beat frieza???

Yo @BigTune are you excited about the new series that’s coming “Dragon Ball DAIMA” ?? Make a video about it

Himhan is on top

By end of Z, vegeta said there being someone that can match goku is impossible, and vegeta compared himself to goku so vegeta was probably saying himself, goku, and uub are top 3

1. Goku 2. Gohan 3. Vegeta 4. Majin Buu 5. Uub 6. Trunks 7. Goten 8. Piccolo 9. Future Trunks 10. 17 or 18

This list is hot dodo

If we wanna be technical, the strongest in Z is Vegetto.

can u do this same video, but for dragon ball?

Future Trunks was as strong as SS Vegeta and SS Goku without the heart virus???? Where are you getting this from? SS Vegeta was stronger than SS Goku without the heart virus, Picollo stated this very clearly. SS Goku would defeat SS Trunks most likely mid diff or low diff. Before the HTC, it was SSV>SSG>SST

When it comes to the Peaceful World Saga (End of Z), I'm only gonna count Goku and Uub. While Piccolo and Vegeta have more than likely gotten stronger, there's no way to gauge where they stand. Or anyone else for that matter. The manga and anime scale differently from one another. Please keep that in mind. Strongest to weakest... Manga scaling, original run Super Saiyan Vegetto Super Buu, Gohan Absorbed Super Buu, Gotenks Absorbed Ultimate Gohan Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks Super Buu Vegetto Goku (Peaceful World Saga) Super Saiyan 3 Goku (Kid Buu Saga) Kid Buu You can place Base Vegetto higher if you want, but that also comes down to what your Potara Fusion multiplier is. He also transforms immediately, so we don't have much to go off in terms of combat and power. However, as a Super Saiyan, Vegetto tops the list. Manga scaling, includes DBZ Movies 14 and 15 Whis (Resurrection 'F') Beerus (Resurrection 'F') Golden Evolution Frieza Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegeta Saiyan Beyond God Goku Saiyan Beyond God Vegeta Frieza, Fourth Form (formerly his Final Form) Super Saiyan God Goku (Battle of Gods) Super Saiyan Vegetto (Fusion Saga) Movies 14 and 15 were continuations to the manga. While they were retconned later, these movies are still under the Z branding, so they count. Anime scaling Goku (Peaceful World Saga) Uub (Peaceful World Saga) Super Saiyan 3 Goku (Kid Buu Saga) Kid Buu Super Saiyan 2 Vegeta (Kid Buu Saga) Innocent Buu (Kid Buu Saga) Super Saiyan Vegetto Vegetto Super Buu, Gohan Absorbed Super Buu, Gotenks Absorbed Vegetto being that low isn't a mistake. I don't like it myself, but the in-universe statements, and power creeps bump him down quite a bit.

Goku should be 1. Goku was at the end of z stronger than everybody, thats why someone Like Carthu is saying that Black Freezer should be beaten bevor End of Z.

What about fusions or beerus? He was introduced in Z! Battle of Gods dragon ball z!!

Tori called Goku the strongest by the End of Z. Goku was at 1/100 of his power in Boo’s body, and fought a replica of Ultimate Gohan who was on par with the original. Kid Boo is absolutely stronger than Super Boo. Gohan is not beating Kid Boo 1v1. His Genki was not enough to fuel the Genkidama beat Boo alone. And with that, Gohan had to give as much Genki as he could without dying to fuel it. Goten was also stated to be on par with Beginning of Boo Saga Gohan as well. On Future Trunks being more powerful than that Cell, that was obviously contradicted by the fight. He showed that he can enter a Grade 3 like state as well, and besides that, he was absolutely not going all out. Oob is literally the reincarnation of Kid Boo. That fight just shown how much stronger Goku has gotten, that he could possibly beat him in Base.

Wrong

The utter downplay 17 shouldn't even be on the list Goten and Trunks are far above him in power, Trunks with a single Ki held back blast almost killed android 18, Goten posses power not the least bit inferior to Gohan making him far above the androids. Gohan is NOT above end of Z Goku, Goku is stated by Toriyama to be the strongest in the universe by the end of the buu saga. Uub is far above mister Buu, Uub is literally kid buu in terms of strength and we already saw how mister buu vs kid buu went.
