I don't think this really fits "In-Universe discussion." Maybe this should be in the "Versus" thread or something.

Well I've only seen a couple of these so I can only speak for yuske and gon ... It appears yuske can fly against sensui and by the end he is many times stronger than his fight against sensui I would put him in between Goku at the 23rd tournament and raditz . And gon is tougher to judge he appears to have a super charged punch and can causally cut tough opponents in half. I would put him maybe equal to King piccolo or below slightly.

I haven't been keeping up with Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece, lately.

EoS Yusuke's power depends on how you interpret the feats and statements about Raizen and the 3 kings. He could be anywhere from 23rd Budokai level to Saiyan saga Vegeta level.

I haven't gotten to the end of Toriko yet.

Jotaro is insanely fast and has very broken abilities with his Stand, but he doesn't have much power or range. So if he was starting right up next to someone he could probably be as deadly as Hit could be, but from a distance he could lose to much weaker characters.

Kenshiro is weaker than King Piccolo in terms of raw power, but he does have the ability to make you explode with a touch, and a technique that makes him intangible. Like Jotaro he could be really dangerous in a close quarters fight, although probably not as much so.

Guts could probably take on Kid Goku in the first few chapters of the manga... he would get stomped by Roshi or anyone close to that level though.

I'm assuming you're allowing Simon to form his mecha, and if he has it in its most powerful form then I could see only Zeno or Super Shenron being able to beat him.

Manga Sailor Moon is pretty powerful I hear but I am no expert. She might be on SSJG level? Not sure.

Gon could maybe beat Goku from the 21st Budokai, if he doesn't transform into an Oozaru.

I dropped FT a long time ago.

No idea about the next two.

Seiya gets more ass pulled powerups than Goku does... I really can't keep track of everything he's been able to do. I recall him surviving a total reality reset or something, and if that is the case then even Zeno might not be able to beat him.

It's completely unknown how strong Saitama actually is, but he is limited by physical factors, such as the need to breathe and the inability to fly. So I don't really see him getting past the Namek saga (if worse comes to worse, Freeza's favorite strategy of blowing up the planet from under him would definitely work).

Don't know about the next three.

Madoka's power is kind of vague. I think at her best she was sort of an abstract being similar to Infinite Zamasu, so Zeno could probably erase her.

1. Naruto caps out on BoZ Piccolo or 21st TB Roshi. Naruto hasn't shown near the capability to destroy the moon.
6. Jotaro caps out on 21st TB Goku. Sure Jotaro has time-stop, but can he sufficiently hurt Goku?
9. With SSTGL, it becomes hazy. STTGL could possibly be matched by Beerus but for sure by Zeno.
11. Gon caps out on 21st TB Budokai Goku.
14. Eren gets stomped by 21st TB Goku. Eren wouldn't even be able to see how fast Goku is nor be able to take his attacks.
16. Manga Saitama only casually stopped an Earth crust destroying attack. With that, I would say that Saiyan Arc Vegeta can match him.
18. Deku gets stomped by 21st TB Goku unless he luckily gets a full-power hit on Goku.
Why I use "Geran" instead of "Jiren"

Naruto, Luffy and Yusuke - don't know, probably weaker than Goku of the beginning of Z.
Kenshiro - maybe as strong as King Piccolo.
Guts - weaker than Goku of 21th Budokai.
Simon - weaker than Beerus, probably.
Eren - weaker than Goku of 21th Budokai.
Pegasus Seiya and Saitama - probably weaker than Goku after his training in 100 G.

Well Stands can phase through physical matter. so he could use Star Platinum to pinch off a crucial blood vessel in his brain or something. Star Platinum is also FTL. TBH I don't see any character from Z (save Buu, due to his amorphous body) being able to handle him in a close quarters fight where they don't know what they're dealing with in advance. At the point where Goku fought Hit though, Jotaro probably wouldn't be much of an issue.

To me, she stops around the ToP arc. Could probably beat 1st UI Omen Goku with her strongest form.

1. That's out of character for Jotaro to do that with Star Platinum. If Jotaro were to do that, then he wouldn't constantly do a barrage of punches. It's like believing Goku would start a battle with SSBKKx20 Genki-Dama.

2. It can be argued that Star Platinum is only FTL when time is stopped. If SP was truly FTL then that would scale to SIlver Chariot as well which wouldn't make sense because it was explicit that SC could barely react to light-speed Hanged Man.

Well I suppose, although he might try it if he sees that his normal attacks aren't having much of an effect.

Hanged Man was also invisible while it was moving, so that is another reason they couldn't catch it that easily. Silver Chariot was able to deflect light beams from The Sun, and the time stopping and FTL are mentioned separately in the Stand description for Star Platinum in Part 6. You also have stuff like Kars reacting to Stroheim's ultraviolet beam in Part 2, Crazy Diamond outspeeding Red Hot Chili Pepper in Part 4, etc. So there are decent arguments for some of the Stands being that fast.

Hanged Man wasn't invisible while moving, it was in fact, a light moving and explicit that it was traveling at that speed. Otherwise, wouldn't have known Polnareff knew the trajectory that Hanged Man could take.
Believing that feats you mentioned, were intended to be light speed, should also have you believing Kid Goku dodging Staff Officer Black's laser, Freeza Arc Goku reacting to Ginyu's change (the attack was described as light), and Kid Goku outspeeding the Roshi's Taiyoken as lightspeed feats.

It was effectively invisible as it was indistinguishable from the normal sunlight - in fact it just used the sunlight as a medium through which to travel. That's why they had to predict its position in advance as it could only move in a linear path.

Dragonball doesn't have a single tone. It has both silly and serious moments, both humor and drama, just like real life. The idea that a work of fiction should be only all-comedy or all-serious is unnatural and frankly, retarded.

Saitama probably beats Gogeta. He is a gag character whose strength can’t be rivaled.

Saitama is not a gag character, nor does he have infinite power (only infinite potential). Those myths have been debunked multiple times already.

Bleach characters can only be harmed by other reiatsu-users, so I'd say that Ichigo has it in the bag.

Bleach characters are basically spirits (& reiryoku/reiatsu = ki), which Dragonball characters can sense and harm.
