This article only contains the strongest mortal female warriors, so none of the Angels or Gods of Destruction will be included due to a lack of feats and vagueness about their actual individual power.
Far too often, the female characters of the Dragon Ball franchise tend to be overlooked. Of course, it's no secret that this series is heavily centered around the main male characters, most of whom are Saiyans who are the last of their entire species. Still, though, there are a few female characters in this story that are not only incredible in their own right, but can also be considered some of the most important figures in the story.
Characters like Bulma and Chi-Chi come to mind as integral characters in the overall world of Dragon Ball. However, they aren't exactly powerful fighters in the current era, which is quite a big distinction considering how fighting and Martial Arts are the central focus of the series. However, there are several powerful female characters whose strength is quite formidable, so let's take a look at who they are.
Dragon Ball: Goku's Biggest Weakness Has Already Been Revealed
Goku is one of the multiverse's most powerful characters, but he has one clear weakness which has often led to a lot of trouble for many!

An Annoying But Powerful Character

Tournament of Power |
- Ribrianne showed incredible power in the tournament.
Among all the participant universes in the Tournament of Power, Universe 2 was definitely one of the most underrated. Most originally dismissed their gimmick of love being the ultimate power, but the strength of their main fighter, Ribrianne, definitely gave many of the fighters in the tournament a run for their money. In fact, she was able to go up against some of the strongest characters in the entire event.
Happiness to one and all! I send you all my love!
In her fight against Vegeta, Ribrianne showed great power and even managed to briefly overpower his Super Saiyan form at times. While far from being the most powerful character in the Tournament of Power, Ribrianne had substantial transformations that allowed her to get far stronger than she was initially, and her elimination at the end of it showed that she was quite a force to be reckoned with.

- Android 18 started off as a villain who eventually became a hero.
In her first appearance in the Dragon Ball series, Android 18 was feared as one of the most dangerous threats that the Earth had ever faced. Upon Future Trunks' warning, the Z-Fighters came to be wary of her and her brother, since it was them who had destroyed the timeline that he had come from. Her strength was eventually seen when she made short work of Vegeta in his Super Saiyan state, proving herself to be far stronger than the legendary transformation.
I'm married! I have a daughter, an actual life! Things that really matter!
Eventually, 18 was saved from her fate and became a hero, marrying Krillin and becoming one of the most important Z-Fighters. Over the years, she has grown quite substantially in strength, as was seen in the Tournament of Power, where she performed very well against the most powerful figures in the entire multiverse and even knocked out Ribrianna from the tournament. To this day, Android 18 remains one of the most beloved characters in the entire series and is Universe 7's main female fighter.
Dragon Ball: These Two Saiyan's Are Even Stronger Than Beerus
Beerus has always been the goal for Goku and Vegeta to reach in Super, but there are already two Saiyans who are even stronger than him!
Caulifla Was A Rebellious And Naturally Talented Saiyan Warrior
The Pride Of Universe 6

- Caulifla was a truly gifted Saiyan.
One of the best aspects of lore that Super introduced was the concept of the multiverse, which expanded the world of the series a hundredfold. Among these new universes was Universe 6, a mirror to the main universe, which even contained its own version of the Saiyan race on Planet Sadala. Though these Saiyans weren't close to the level of strength as the main ones from Universe 7, there were a few exceptions.
Let's go! You and me, Goku!
The most notable of these was Caulifla, a rebellious character whose personality is more akin to Universe 7 Saiyans than those from her planet. In the Tournament of Power, Caulifla showed incredible control of her powers as she was able to awaken multiple Super Saiyan forms that were strong enough to even push Goku back at times. Though she stopped as Super Saiyan 2, her raw power and talent simply can't be denied.
Kale Had Some Of The Greatest Potential Ever Seen In A Saiyan Warrior
Incredible Strength

Tournament of Power Arc |
- Kale had freakish potential.
Unlike Caulifla, Kale's personality was very timid, to the point where she could honestly be confused with just another run-of-the-mill Saiyan civilian. However, in truth, Kale harbored some of the greatest potential of any Saiyan in the series, which was so incredible that letting it out broke her mind, turning her into a hulking and destructive brute with unmatched power. In essence, she is the female version of Broly.
Unbelievable. It seems that your antics have awakened an outrageously powerful beast!
Her strength was so great that even powerhouses like Jiren, Goku, and Vegeta made note of it. In her berserker state, Kale grew in size and muscle mass to an unprecedented degree, allowing her to even overpower Goku's Super Saiyan 2 form and force him to go Super Saiyan Blue in order to minimize damage. Eventually, she learned to control this power with Caulifla's help, retaining her sanity and this monstrous power at the same time.
Dragon Ball: Broly's Next Power-Up Could Be The Strongest
Broly is a genetic freak who has quickly become one of the strongest characters in the story, so here's why his next form could be amazing!
Kefla Was One Of The Greatest Fusions In The Entire Franchise
Universe 6's Strongest Warrior

First Appearance |

Tournament of Power Arc |
- Kefla was one of the highlights of the Tournament of Power.
Universe 6 proved itself to have one of the greatest rosters in the entire Dragon Ball multiverse, but, aside from Hit, they were all just outside the top tier. This all changed when fusion was allowed towards the middle of the tournament, prompting Caulifla and Kale to use the Potara Earrings to merge into one of the most powerful and awesome warriors in all of Dragon Ball Super: Kefla.
Her energy's wild! There's just no telling how high it's gonna go!
As expected, Kefla certainly lived up to all of her hype and proved to be the most powerful mortal female warrior in the entire series. This fusion could make full use of Caulfla's natural talent and Kale's monstrous strength and potential, which allowed her to go up against Goku's strongest forms. At the end, she proved to be so strong that only Goku could knock her out while in his Ultra Instinct Sign state, cementing her as one of the biggest threats in the Tournament of Power.
