10 Anime Signature Moves Even More Powerful Than Naruto's Rasengan

Naruto is a beloved shonen action anime packed with iconic characters and ninjutsu. One example is the Rasengan, an A-ranked jutsu that Minato Namikaze invented himself. It's a rapidly spinning ball of concentrated chakra that can send the opponent flying with blunt force.

Protagonist Naruto Uzumaki learned his late father's signature jutsu from Jiraiya the toad sage and quickly made it his own. The basic Rasengan is a cool and effective shonen move, but it's still not the strongest. A variety of legendary techniques from other shonen and seinen anime series pack more power than the Rasengan. Some of them can end a battle with a single blow.

10 United States Of Smash Can Defeat Any Evildoer

My Hero Academia

My Hero Academia features many powerful Quirks that are similar to ninjutsu in Naruto. Bakugo's Explosion Quirk is like fire release, and Inasa's Whirlwind is like wind release. Then there's the iconic Quirk One For All, which is All Might's and Izuku's own version of the Rasengan.

Like the Rasengan, One For All is all about brute strength in melee combat, and only truly great heroes can wield it. One For All is strongest when the wielder, usually All Might, performs the devastating United States of Smash. This incredible move put the Rasengan to shame when it defeated All For One.

9 The Black Getsuga Tensho Is Ichigo Kurosaki's Best Move

Bleach

Bleach's protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, is famed for his black sword Tensa Zangetsu, his favorite weapon. Ichigo gained Zangetsu after training with Kisuke, then learned to perform bankai and the Getsuga Tensho move during the Soul Society story arc.

The Getsuga Tensho is even stronger and turns black when Ichigo uses it while wearing his Hollow mask. The Getsuga Tensho becomes powerful enough to even blast Ulquiorra Schiffer away, and it has a much longer range than the Rasengan. It can even be wrapped around Zangetsu's blade for melee combat.

8 The World Creates A Timeless Realm

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

On its own, the melee Stand called The World is on par with the Rasengan. In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, The World can rival or overwhelm any melee Stand such as Star Platinum, but its signature move is even more extreme. The World is infamous for stopping time itself at will.

When the vampire DIO uses The World's iconic move, the battle becomes completely one-sided. In that timeless realm, DIO can stab, bludgeon or disembowel his opponents at leisure. The enemy won't even know what's happening until time resumes, and by then, it's far too late.

7 Escanor's Move, The One, Makes Him The Strongest Human Alive

The Seven Deadly Sins

Most of The Seven Deadly Sins' strongest characters are either high-ranking demons like Meliodas and Zeldris, or archangels like Ludociel, but humans like Escanor can sometimes rival them. Escanor is the lion sin of pride, and he is immensely proud of his best move, known in English as The One.

At noon, for just one minute's time, Escanor becomes power incarnate. He can swing his ax Rhitta to deliver an enormously powerful attack, one that can even threaten demon-mode Meliodas. It's far stronger than any Rasengan, and in emergencies, Escanor will also use The One: Ultimate.

6 Eren's Attack Titan Form Is Highly Destructive

Attack On Titan

Attack on Titan's Nine Titan Shifters are huge and powerful, especially the aptly named Attack Titan. Protagonist Eren Yeager gained the Attack Titan when his father injected him with it, and this enormous power saved Eren's life in a moment of crisis.

Eren is safely protected with the Attack Titan's huge body, while Naruto's Rasengan has no defensive properties. On offense, the Attack Titan can wreak enormous destruction for hours, while the Rasengan is far more limited. The Attack Titan can also be used for support roles, such as carrying that giant boulder.

5 Satoru Gojo's Limitless Sorcery Harnesses Infinity

Jujutsu Kaisen

The goofy sorcerer Satoru Gojo is famed all over the Jujutsu Kaisen universe for his seemingly foolproof sorcery technique, Limitless. When Satoru uses Limitless, he makes use of infinity itself, both on offense and defense. Not even elite curses like Jogo and Hanami can do much against such power.

Satoru can use this defensively to block an enemy's attack within the infinite space between them. On offense, Satoru can use his domain expansion to overwhelm the enemy's mind with infinite information, rendering them completely helpless and immobile. That "jutsu" far outstrips anything found in Naruto, Rasengan included.

4 Saitama's Single Punches Can Obliterate Any Monster, Alien, Or Meteor

One-Punch Man

Saitama's punches are straightforward and unpretentious compared to most signature moves in anime, but those punches' power cannot be denied. Saitama spends most of One-Punch Man defeating any foe or destroying any obstacle with a single punch, hence the anime's title.

Saitama's punches are so powerful, just one can destroy a massive meteor of metal and rock. Saitama can also pull a punch and blast apart the local terrain with the air force alone. That's what happened when Saitama held back during his sparring session with Genos the cyborg in a remote area.

3 Light Yagami's Notebook Causes Instant Death

Death Note

The scheming antihero Light Yagami has one of anime's scariest best "techniques" of all time. In Death Note, Light doesn't need magic or martial arts to kill someone. Instead, his "technique" is simply writing their name into the Death Note to inflict a fatal heart attack 40 seconds later.

From a distance, Light can defeat any conceivable enemy with this move, and there is no defense whatsoever against a heart attack. Light needs to know the victim's name and face first, but with his genius mind and Misa's eyes, he can always get that information sooner or later.

2 Explosion Magic Can Obliterate The Landscape

Konosuba

Most of Konosuba's main characters wield techniques or weapons that compare poorly to Naruto jutsu, but Megumin the explosion witch is an exception. She uses explosion magic exclusively, and Megumin practices every day to enhance her signature spell even more.

Megumin's explosions are enormously powerful, and they could destroy entire villages at a time. Drawbacks include the explosions' collateral damage up close and the fact that Megumin can only cast one explosion per day. She must be careful to destroy the enemy in one hit, or she's helpless.

1 Rimuru's Predator Skill Absorbs The Enemy & Steals Their Attributes

That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime stars the amusingly OP hero Rimuru Tempest, a blue slime who gained many powers and abilities over time. Most of Rimuru's best spells and skills trace back to his ultimate move, his Predator skill. With it, he can absorb any animal and obtain its form, attributes, and more.

This unique ability turned Rimuru into a one-man army, and it doubles as an offensive weapon. When Rimuru successfully absorbs a threat like Ifrit or the orc lord, that enemy is gone forever. Very few, if any, jutsu in Naruto can do anything like that, let alone the Rasengan.
