One of the standard practices within Shonen anime franchises is that of the characters gradually get stronger the longer the story goes on. Typically, the final arc of a particular series shows the main character unlocking their highest level of power, with which they end up defeating the major villain.
Although this is something that has been seen time and time again, it's still a great and reliable way to end a story. However, there are a few notable anime characters who have gone the entire length of their series without ever unlocking their full power or potential, so, in this article, let's go over the strongest anime characters who have yet to go all out.
When it comes to powerful characters who haven't revealed their full power, the trend typically goes to show that they haven't found a way to reach that state. On the other hand, with examples like Saiki, there are those characters who actively restrain themselves from using their full power due to the effect it would have on the world.
Although his telepathy tends to get the most attention, Saiki is actually insanely powerful and has a whole host of abilities, including teleportation, petrification, astral projection, healing, etc. Plus, he can also alter reality. However, due to the intentional restraints he puts on himself, fans have pretty much never seen him using his full power.
One of One Piece's most beloved characters is also one of its most elusive. From the very start of the franchise, Shanks had shown uncanny powers and abilities, and due to his handful of appearances in the series' 1100+ chapters, fans have never really seen the full extent of what Red Hair is truly capable of.
As one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, Shanks' strength is absolute, and his very brief uses of Haki in the series have differentiated him as perhaps the greatest user of this ability since Joyboy himself. Shanks' maximum strength is unknown, but when the Final War comes around, this legendary pirate will surely showcase his incredible full power.
Many fans may be shaking their heads at this placement, since Sukuna was clearly shown to have gone all out in his legendary fight against Gojo. However, even Gojo stated that Sukuna hadn't been using his full strength during their bout, and this may have been an indication of the full potential that the true form of the King of Curses held.
Sukuna's strategy against Gojo required the use of the Ten Shadows technique while saving his true form as an alternative healing method for the remaining Jujutsu sorcerers, who all jumped him afterward. However, if Sukuna had used his true form with the Ten Shadows, his fight against Gojo would have been far more one-sided and would have been the true extent of his strength.
