Probably Yu Narukami from Persona 4, mainly because he's the only character in the game with the Wildcard ability, he doesn't go through much effort to actually obtain his persona and he also seems to be the most strong willed, with everyone just choosing to follow him and whatever he wants.
Other than that, out of sheer power it's probably Metal Gear Rising Raiden, I mean come on, lifting a Ray like that? That takes some strength

xenoblade spoilers.... when equipped with a certain piece of gear it's Shulk by a country mile

Perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane.
Kratos, he rips heads off Gods and doesn't afraid of anything.
EDIT: Sabin (FFVI): He suplexes a train.

I barely started it, but I recall hearing that you can be quite unstoppable in Dishonored.
Maxed out The Boss in SR 3 and especially in 4 applies as well.
Also not exactly "powerful", but a high level Nick with a super combo weapon in DR3 definitely feels like it, able to mow down hundreds of all kind of zombies and psychopaths without breaking a sweat.

Such a shame that you never actually get that feeling in Second Son though

Yep, although it felt more like that in 1 and Festival of Blood than in 2
because the Ice Titans were a chore to kill

if only one could switch powers on the fly instead of having to drain...
Angel Wing Rinoa + Maxed Magic + Meteor > *Squall Leonhart is probably the most powerful character I ever used.
He does ridiculous damage if you set his junction system right and uses Aura + Lionheart.
Fix'd.

The hand from Black & White.
I always interpretted that as a lucky shot Gomorrah had because Bayo didn't expect him to turn on her. It's odd in general that Jeanne took one hit before dying. Jeanne must have had a rough time when she was on her own during the prologue sequence or something. Because that's a big gameplay story segregation. Once Bayonetta realized what was going on, Gomorrah didn't stand a chance. Even if you let him hit you, his attacks aren't one hit kills even with an unupgraded health bar. So either Jeanne and Bayonetta are glass cannons (which is possible, since they're rarely hit in cutscenes otherwise) or Jeanne was on her last HP and sacrificed herself in case Bayo was too.
And yeah, I saw the edit. One cutscene? That's weak. What they need is to bring back Enemy Files from the old games. They want to have a good story, but they refuse to build background to explain the inconsistancies that happen onscreen.
I am sorry to report that the bolded could very well be it. Bayonetta is effortless stronger than Kratos, even in story. Kratos struggles with 50 pound chest lids, Bayonetta tosses buildings without effort.

Came in for the demifiend. In Nocturne you can make him completely immune to all assaults while tearing a path of death and destruction that leaves entire pantheons dead or enslaved. The true demon ending has you breaking the cycle of creation and leading your demon army to destroy Yahweh.
If that's not enough he shows up in SMT: Digital Devil Saga as a bonus boss that just ruins your entire party singlehandedly.

Asura's wrath was a blast to watch on youtube
One odd example is the soldier from Blacksite: Area 51. I have never seen a FPS protagonist (who is supposed to be a normal human) tank that many bullets without ill effect. It's very difficult to actually die in the game because of how much fire it takes to kill you. It would make the Team Fortress 2 Heavy blush.
Are we talking about "Powerfull" as in " Doing trillions of amounts of Damage to a target with set character ?
Or said character having such ridiculous huge and awesome attack animations that are so totally overkill to the point of ridiculousness just to kill one guy ?
If it is the former then yeah , Disgaea characters fit that bill .
However , if we are talking about the latter , Meet Shu and Neon Granzon
While SRW is famous for it's over the top overkill , Shu surpasses them all when his penultimate attack consists of

We've been over this. Asura destroys planets with his dick. Goku is an infant in front of him.

Shulk is basically the king of OP characters in videogames, plot-wise. Fei from Xenogears is up there too, but Shulk is like South Korean broadband to Fei's dial-up. People say Kirby but Kirby would never be able to absorb him outside of gameplay balance related reasons like Smash.

I'm gonna go with Akuma/ONI. Literally whips everyone's ass in street fighter. Also in the Asuras wrath dlc he fights asura for 500 years which ends in a draw. So that easily puts him up there with Asura.

I completely forgot Dante was in Nocturne.
If he was canon he'd easily be at the top of the list.
Akuma is such a fucking beast.
I'll raise you a punch rush/booya/heel drop + critical max timer + 255 str/lck zell on a vit zero enemy.

EDIT: Sabin (FFVI): He suplexes a train.
Why does he put back the train on the track after executing the suplex?
Why don't they get off the track?
This is great.

So many Kratos votes, even though he would have no chance of stopping this:
Asura
If Asura is using the Earth to brace himself, then realistically that thing pressing down on him can't be that strong right? Like if he was strong enough to destroy the earth easily it wouldn't matter how strong Asura was there, he'd just be pressed through the Earth unharmed. I assume. I've heard too many bad things to bother playing it myself to find out.

Are you talking about
the ending where the AI offered him power that he refused to wield? Shulk never had that power any more than Zanza and Meyneth did. Hell, he had less claim to it than those two, since at least they actually helped create the AI.
Again,
that wasn't Shulk's power. He just called the shots for that brief moment because the system thought he deserved to use them. It's strange how people keep acting like Shulk was all-powerful when "God" just lent him a hand for that moment and he refused to accept any more than that.
