Highlights
- Luffy's Gear 5th is a powerful transformation, but there are other anime powers that surpass it in terms of abilities and strength.
- Ultra Instinct from Dragon Ball, Gold Experience Requiem from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and Six Paths Sage Mode from Naruto are all examples of anime powers that are superior to Gear 5th.
One Piece anime has been completely focused on Luffy's latest transformation, Gear 5th. The pirate awakened this power after being knocked out by Kaido. Luffy's Gear 5th significantly boosted his fighting abilities, and it enabled him to go toe to toe with the Yonko.
Luffy's Gear 5th is considered the most ridiculous power in One Piece. The form itself is a work of art, and it will go down as one of the best transformations in anime history. However, the abilities it provides are not nearly as good as some of the other anime powers. With that in mind, here are some anime powers that supersede Luffy's Gear 5th.
7 Ultra Instinct
Ultra Instinct is a well-known power from the Dragon Ball franchise. It was introduced in the Tournament of Power in Dragon Ball Super. Initially, Goku was only able to use an imperfect form of Ultra Instinct, but he managed to master it by the end of the arc.
The mastered Ultra Instinct allowed Goku to fight against Jiren, whose power was compared to that of a God of Destruction. Ultra Instinct separates the user's consciousness from their body, enabling it to move and fight without being affected by the individual's emotions and thoughts.
6 Gold Experience Requiem

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is known for its incredible Stand abilities. Each power is unique and can be used in a variety of ways. Above all, a Stand's strength is dependent on its user. If a person is skilled enough, they can overwhelm an opponent with a stronger Stand without any problem.
There are some Stands in the story that are extremely overpowered. It is almost impossible to vanquish them in battle, and one such Stand is Gold Experience Requiem. After awakening the Stand, Giorno was to overwhelm Diavolo effortlessly. Gold Experience Requiem works on its own accord and reverses any action that might harm Giorno. Even Diavolo's ability to predict the future and erase time couldn't do anything against it. There is absolutely no question that Giorno's Stand is much better than Gear 5th.
5 Six Paths Sage Mode
The Six Paths Sage Mode is an ability that is extremely difficult to acquire, but it offers some incredible benefits. Naruto Uzumaki is the only person to ever use it. The Six Paths Sage Mode gives the user access to the truth-seeking balls, which can decimate anything in their path. Even the reanimated ninjas stand no chance against it.
The Six Paths Sage Mode also enables its user to fly at great speeds and heal allies. The user's chakra reserves also increase, allowing them to use jutsu that would otherwise be impossible to utilize. Furthermore, the user's sensory abilities are heightened to the point where they are able to sense things outside the regular plane of existence.
4 The Almighty
The Almighty is an outrageous ability that is unique to Yhwach, one of the main antagonists of Bleach. It allows the user to look into the future and potentially alter it. Yhwach is able to see everything that is going to happen in the distant future. On top of that, he is able to observe all possible futures, which gives him a massive advantage over his opponents.
The Almighty can be used to set up traps that are guaranteed to work. Yhwach can even rewrite his own death, making it almost impossible to kill him in battle. With such an absurd ability at his disposal, it is no wonder why Yhwach is among the strongest anime characters.
3 Limitless
Limitless is a special power that has been passed down to the members of the Gojo Family. Using this ability requires a great deal of training, but it is worth the effort as it offers the user access to incredible techniques. Gojo Satoru is able to use Limitless to its fullest because of Six Eyes.
His strongest attack Hollow Technique: Purple combines both Red and Blue, which leads to the creation of an attack that is strong enough to obliterate anything in its path.
2 Gate of Babylon
The Gate of Babylon is the Noble Phantasm of Gilgamesh. It contains all the treasures that he accumulated during his lifetime. Gilgamesh can use the Gate of Babylon at any time, which makes it an extremely convenient ability to have.
As Gilgamesh can bring out his weapons at any time, it is difficult to dodge or block his attacks. He can also catch his enemies off-guard by spawning the weapons from various angles. Gilgamesh's most prized weapons are Ea and Enkidu, both of which can cause hefty damage to a person. However, Gilgamesh prefers not to use them against ordinary opponents, opting to bring them out against talented enemies.
1 Geass
Geass is an ocular power that is unique to the Code Geass series. There are different types of Geass, each with a unique power. Lelouch could use his Geass to command a person to do anything that he wanted. Mao's Geass enabled him to listen to the thoughts of any individual within a 500-meter radius.
Charles zi Britannia used his Geass to freely alter the memories of a person. Meanwhile, Bismarck Waldstein's Geass allowed him to see the future, which gave him a massive advantage over others. There are many more Geass in the series, but these stand out the most.
