Scorpion doesn't really use a sword.
The creaotr of the thread also counted other weapon users like spears.

My avatar...
All the most OP swordsmen I know of have already been listed, except Orochimaru, imo pinning down 4 tails Naruto with his sword was a pretty impressive feat, not as good as Bee but, what can you do?
Your avatar? Don't make me laugh even in One Piece verse he isn't the strongest yet. Mihawk is still out of his league.

Can't remember too many swordsmen right now so im just gonna go with...

(In no order)

Mihawk
Future Trunks
Guts
Zoro
Hiei
Lawd Feitan
Dante Sparda
Ryu Hayabusa (he isn't even an anime character but still, this man is too badass to not be listed)
Kurogane Gama
Sengoku Iori


This list mostly consists of the swordsmen i like, im not actually making a list of the strongest swordsmen. Not too many over the top strong ones pop into my mind right now.

Kirito is undoubtedly the strongest anime swordsman in his verse.

If it's all anime verses combined it's probably some guy from DBZ anyways.......

Would Darkness from To Love Ru count? Her transform ability gives her the ability to make her hair into pretty much any weapon.

And she cut a planet in half and has wormhole abilities

Chaos;HEAD, their swords are used for reality warping. Lol

Shakugan no Shana chars...mhm..

Seto from Needless uses a sword but her ability is gravity.

A Ga Rei character is probably one but I'd have to check for the manga feats. The anime chars strength is mostly based off of the spirit beasts.

In Mai- No it's not time for that one yet.

I think Chrome Shelled Regios characters should be taken into consideration as well.

Kuwabara can cut through dimensions with his sword.

So I Can't Play H...erm I'd have to think of Ryosuke being potent with his "sword".



This isn't my top 10, just characters that I think would be up there.

Oh, and doesn't TTGL use a sword or something?

And you just got soloed.




OP said no omnipotent, but Tenchi Masaki isn't technically a true omnipotent. His alter ego is, but not him, and he does use a sword soo....


DBZ would probably be 2nd, 3rd and 4th with
Janemba
You must be registered for see images
Gohan
You must be registered for see images
Trunks
You must be registered for see images

But I say probably because they fought with a sword for a short period of time, but aren't really known for being a "Swordman"

Then in no particular order
Hiei (Yu Yu Hakusho)
You must be registered for see images

Mihawk (One Piece)
You must be registered for see images

Hiko Seijuro (Rurouni Kenshin)
You must be registered for see images

Guts (Berserk)
You must be registered for see images

Kenpachi (Bleach)
You must be registered for see images

Killer Bee
You must be registered for see images

And Erza (Fairy Tail)
You must be registered for see images



I just named one from each anime but there are lots of strong swordsman from the anime I mentioned. More then likely Yu Yu Hakusho, Bleach, and One Piece would have a few on the list.

kami tenchi and his light sabers. they desintegrate matter and are extensions of his LHW so that's says enough. 3 LHW tenchi and god tenchi are really different.

gourry wielding the sword of light (hellmasters later empowers it further)

Like the other Weapons of Light, the Sword of Light channels and amplifies the mental energy, or willpower, of the user, turning it into an attack both on the physical and the astral side. This makes it incredibly useful for fighting mazoku, who do not have physical bodies and therefore can only be hurt from the astral side. It can also be used against foes whose astral bodies are sealed off or missing, and thus are immune to most magics (like Zanaffar in the Slayers novels). The sword is powerful enough to destroy lesser demons and low-ranking mazoku in a single blow if the wielder can manage to hit them. Even middle-ranking mazoku can be seriously wounded or killed by the sword, though for a human, striking one with it can prove exceptionally difficult given how easily these beings can teleport via plane shifting. High-ranking mazoku, however, often display near immunity to the weapon's power, requiring more powerful techniques to kill
dark schnedier is also a classy swordsman, he was epic at wielding the sword and fighting arshes with efreet.

(there are multiple more if we go in terms of strength, but meh i'm lazy)

janemba is a pretty cool swordsman he was easily able to cut ssj3 goku with no effort whatsoever.

kenshin himura: no words

claymore: teresa
