Featuring gladiators, gruesome fights, and some of the most defined abs in all of anime, Kengan Ashura is a thrilling watch. Also, if reading manga is more your speed, you’re still guaranteed some epic storytelling regardless. Set in the underground world of corporate-sponsored gladiator battles, Kengan Ashura promises (and delivers) some incredibly vicious hand-to-hand sparring, but the character development by creator Yabako Sandrovich is undoubtedly a significant highlight. 

As expected, when a bunch of strong warriors are pitted against each other, the question of “who is the strongest” arises.  While there are numerous warriors in the Kengan Association, there are eight standout characters who shine as the strongest of the bunch. In this world, where strength takes on several forms, these eight represent some of the pinnacle fighters in the series. Overall, any fan of martial arts and boxing anime won’t want to miss out on Kengan Ashura.

8. Julius Reinhold

Julius Reinhold, also known as the Berserker, is the fighter for Iwami Heavy Industries and Toyo Electric Power and Co.

Julius’ brute force and resilience make him one of the most feared fighters in the Kengan Association, and one of the series’ most formidable characters.

7. Kaolang Wongsawat
