Knowing which units are worth investing your precious gems in can be the difference between victory and defeat when playing Anime Reborn. In this Anime Reborn tier list, you'll find all the information you need to make the best choices for your team, including which units to avoid.
Anime Reborn Units Tier List
Below, I've ranked all units in Anime Reborn so that you can identify the strongest options for your team. With limited resources and the sheer number of units available, it's crucial to make informed decisions about where to spend your gems.
It’s important to only invest in unit banners that feature higher-tier characters. This guide offers a full breakdown of all units, ensuring you don’t waste valuable gems on units that won’t provide much impact in battle. Remember to play strategically when assembling your team, as you're restricted to using only four units per match at first. You'll unlock your fifth slot at Level 15, and your sixth at Level 30.

S Tier - Best Units in Anime Reborn
A Tier
Unit Name | Reason for A-Tier Ranking |
---|---|
Aokojo | Aokojo would work perfectly with Ruki in B-tier or Sidea in S-tier. Aokojo's passive is a skill that does an extra 35% damage to enemies that are Frozen, while Ruki can freeze enemies. |
Brolio | Brolio has solid DPS and range, making him a valuable solo unit for many modes. Although costly to upgrade, his impact on the battlefield justifies his A-tier placement. |
Bulba | Bulba's low cost and reliability make her crucial for resource management, though she may not contribute directly to damage output. |
Delta Brothers | Seemingly impossible to get, the Delta Brothers have an effect where their SPA time decreases by 5% every 10 hits, up to a maximum of 20%. That's just kind of boring for a unit that everyone is struggling to unlock, but I can see the appeal in having a unit that can let off its most powerful attack more often. |
Domau | Domau has a shocking 350 damage at deployment as a level 1 unit, which grows to 1,700 damage at upgrade 8. As a level 50 unit, his upgrade 8 damage output is 6,630. He's one of the best support characters in the game, able to apply the Frost Bite effect to his enemies when he attacks them. |
Gohun | I know, I know. Gohun is meta in Anime Reborn, and everyone wants him, but the fact is that he's weirdly difficult to get. When compared to the other S-tier units in this list, the effort almost isn't worth it. However, if you do manage to get him, he is immune to being stunned, and his special attack time is short. |
Gromjaw | Gromjaw's passive gives him an extra 100% Crit Chance against enemies with the Scar effect. The only reason he's here and not in S-tier is because he doesn't do the Scar effect himself, so you'd need to pair him with someone like Io From Heaven. |
Mr. Shrimpy | Mr. Shrimpy is bizarre, but any unit that can reel off an attack that has a 40% critical chance hit to deal +75% more critical damage is one that needs to be in the higher ranks. Unfortunately, he only gets this passive every five attacks, so he's not S-tier material. |
Oda | Oda features high range and solid DPS, with an added crit chance boost when other units are placed nearby. His large AoE at max upgrades makes him a strong unit, but his inability to target air units prevents him from reaching S-tier. |
Osta | Osta is the go-to unit for breaking shields, instantly removing them with his attacks. He’s immune to crowd control from bosses, and pairing him with Yamo gives him additional buffs, improving his damage and attack speed. Despite only targeting ground enemies, Osta’s effectiveness against shields secures his spot in A-tier. |
Saiko | Saiko's passive allows him to boost a Fire-user ally's damage by 35% (but only the Fire ally with the least eliminations). He's a great support and he can also hold his own in a fight with his high attack stats. |
Speedcart | The best farm unit in Anime Reborn, Speedcart's passive reduces the upgrade costs of nearby units, making her invaluable for resource management in Infinite mode and longer battles. |
Spiral | Spiral does 90% more damage to heavy enemies, which sounds great on paper but isn't effective against all enemies. For a unit that comes from the center of the banner, I was expecting more. And so, he's stuck at A-tier. |
Sun Prodigy | An early-access exclusive, Sun Prodigy features burn damage and decent DPS. Though not the best mythic, his multiple placements make him a viable temporary option until better mythics are obtained. |
Super Gohu | A hill unit with good DPS, Super Gohu falls short due to his line attack and underwhelming passive. He is useful but overshadowed by other units in terms of versatility. |
Time Wizard | While Time Wizard's placement cost of $9,750 makes him impractical for early game stages, his unmatched range, high DPS, and 55% slow effect on all enemies in range make him a great choice once you can afford to place him. His active ability, which completely stops enemies for several seconds, is a game-changer for tough waves |
Vegoto | People are going to absolutely disagree with me putting Vegoto here, but his increased range and power level helped me out of a lot of tight spots. He may not be able to compete with S-tier units, but his overall performance is solid. |
Yamo | Yamo is a great hybrid support/DPS unit who shines in boosting team damage. He provides +35% DMG to Dark units in range and adds +15% Crit Rate and Crit DMG to all units. His own DPS is solid, and his versatility makes him an excellent addition to most teams. |
B Tier
Unit Name | Reason for B-Tier Ranking |
---|---|
Airo | Airo has a flexible passive, which allows her to randomly select one of the following effects every minute: +10% damage to speed enemies, +10% damage to flying enemies, or +10% damage to shade enemies. That alone makes her useful to have on your team, but she has good attack stats, too. She's not quite strong enough for me to push her into A-tier, though, as her passive is limited to those three effects and 10% isn't a huge amount. |
Boulder Lee | With full AoE at max upgrades, Boulder Lee shines in Infinite mode. However, his high upgrade cost makes him less efficient in shorter battles, which affects his rank. |
Cod | Cod is kind of boring, but everyone in the community is weirdly into him. Maybe it’s the dark, edgy look... He's a Sniper unit, but his skill (Ego) just gives him -5% SPA for each ability he uses and an extra 25% Range when a boss is on the map. He does have decent stats, but I'm not ranking him any higher than B-tier. |
Darkbeard | This unit's full AoE damage and slowing effect make him an effective support. Despite being expensive to upgrade, his utility keeps him competitive in B-tier. |
Droid 18 | Droid 18 is in B-tier because she's not very impressive, but she's a legendary that won't cost you a ridiculous amount to get. She's a good hill unit to have if you're stuck and need a DPS. |
King Rimura | The weakest of the secret units, King Rimura has decent range and damage but suffers from a slow SPA and lack of AoE. He’s better than most lower-tier units but struggles to stand out. |
Kuzar | Kuzar has high DPS and low SPA, turning into a hybrid with upgrades. His single-target and AoE capabilities make him useful for starting players but not top-tier. |
Lucky One | Lucky One’s ability to stun enemies with every attack is great for slowing down waves, but his personal damage output is underwhelming. While he can recover from stuns with stat boosts, his primary value lies in support rather than DPS. |
Mimi | You might think having Mimi in B-tier is ranking her too high, but her passive allows her to do 30% more damage to elite enemies. Her stats and passive alone aren't enough to push her into A-tier where the hard-hitters are, though. |
Oktawalk | Oktawalk's passive is perfect for taking a breather when you're overrun with enemies. Use his ability to paralyze an enemy for three seconds, forcing them to take an extra 10% damage in that time. |
Payne | While Payne's full AoE and stun capability are valuable, his lackluster DPS and slow SPA hold him back from being a top pick. He is decent for utility but not a game-changer. |
Pikkora Yellow | Pikkora Yellow can only target ground enemies and his evolution is a better version. If you need to evolve a unit for them to be more useful, they can't exactly be one of the best units to play. |
Ray | Ray, based on FMA's Roy Mustang, has a passive that applies the Burning effect on all attacks. This is a solid passive, but not one of the best in Anime Reborn. Along with his stats, he's in the middle of the pack. Go figure. |
Rogan | Rogan is getting shoved into B-tier because he only does an extra 100% damage to bosses, while Hawk Eyes (in S-tier) does +250% damage. He's still a boss killer, just not the best one. |
Ruki | A great support unit, Ruki can freeze enemies with her attacks and provides solid DPS. Her freeze stacks with slow debuffs, making her great for crowd control. |
Sensei | Sensei is a solid epic unit with decent DPS, a quick SPA, and good range. While he lacks flashy passives or hard-hitting AoE attacks, his Hitman passive allows him to gain up to +15% extra damage through eliminations. As a ground unit with a Fire element costing $650, Sensei is a reliable pick but not exceptional. |
Tashrio | I have a huge issue with units that need to be evolved to be useful, and Tashrio is one of them. In his base form, he has decent stats, but he only gains actual power when he's evolved to his Captain form. As Tashrio (Captain), he deals an extra 25% damage to Frozen enemies, as well as an extra 15% damage each second for 5 seconds. His Captain version is both the recent he's in B-tier, and the reason he's not any lower. This ranking list isn't based on evolutions, after all. |
Yune Gossi | If you need a unit that can break through your enemies' defenses, Yune Gossi is a good choice. She also has a decent AoE attack, but she isn't a groundbreaking unit that absolutely must be on your team. |
C Tier
Unit Name | Reason for C-Tier Ranking |
---|---|
Gurdon | Gurdon’s Poison DoT is his main selling point, lasting for up to 25 seconds and making him the standout among Black Clover legendaries. However, his overall DPS falls short compared to other options. As a ground unit with a Dark element costing $670, Gurdon is a decent but underwhelming choice. |
Heyey | Poor range and damage keep Heyey from being competitive, making him one of the worst epic units in the game. |
Jonas | Despite being a decent DPS, there's no real reason to waste your diamonds rolling for Jonas unless you need a Fire unit to complete the star requirements on a map. Not completely useless, but doesn't deserve to be higher than C-tier. |
Killa | A support unit with a stun and decent SPA, but outshined by better options like Ruki and Darkbeard. His ability to target air units can be situationally useful. |
Neja | Neja is unimpressive on placement but improves significantly with full upgrades, featuring full AoE and decent DPS. He’s only worthwhile if you need a mid-game epic. |
Noille | Noille performs well as a hill unit with affordable placement and respectable DPS. Her unique ability to generate +100% yen from kills adds utility as a secondary farm unit. Unfortunately, her line AoE attack limits her damage output significantly, keeping her from reaching higher tiers. |
Nonomi | Nonomi increases the damage enemies take by 35%, giving a helpful edge against bosses. While his utility can occasionally make a difference, he doesn’t offer much outside of those specific scenarios, limiting his overall usefulness. |
Nuzako | Nuzako may not be the strongest unit around, but she does Burning damage alongside each of her attacks. Level her up and you'll have one powerful ground unit on the field. |
Orechamira | Orechamira is just like Nuzako - no passive, but does Burning damage to enemies. They're both decent units, but I wouldn't go out of my way to collect them and add them to my team. |
Pun | I wanted to put Pun higher but their passive is misleading. Although it states that Pun buffs the DMG of any unit they're in the radius of, that effect actually only works on other Puns. |
Red Boss | A good starter DPS for new players who don't want to use the same epic units that everyone else has. |
Sijin | The best rare unit with full AoE, burn, and good range. Sijin is a strong early-game carry but falls off as players gain access to higher-tier units. |
Toboramo | Toboramo isn't a useful unit until he's evolved, and if you've read this far, you know I don't like units like that. Pre-evolution, Toboramo does okay damage - nothing to write home about. Toboramo (Evolved) isn't much better, he just has the Water Dragon skill. |
Turbo Grandmother | Turbo Grandmother has a very specific ability that can only be used against one enemy type in Anime Reborn. Unless you're planning on fighting any of the new Shade enemies, you don't need to go out of your way to get her, but I'd still have her in your inventory just in case. She's not D-tier because she's the only unit I've seen with a passive that can help against Shades. |
Urane | I'm putting Urane in C-tier because her passive is useful but not by itself and she doesn't have the stats to be any higher up. Though she can Freeze enemies, her damage is meh. |
Uriu | As a hill unit with mediocre stats and a low 25% slow chance, Uriu isn’t impactful, but may help in niche scenarios. |
Yaske | Good DPS and range make Yaske a solid starter unit, though he’s outclassed by better legendaries and mythics. |
Zenit | A strong epic starter unit with full AoE the moment you place him. But, Zenit loses that advantage after upgrading. Useful for early matches but should be replaced later. |
D Tier
Unit Name | Reason for D-Tier Ranking |
---|---|
Arleng | Many of the rare units in Anime Reborn end up being fillers in the game. They have no benefits, and just take up space in your inventory. Arleng is another of these. |
Emily | Emily was added during Update 3 as part of the Winter Mayhem event banner. She has no special skills or passives. |
Hitona | Another Naruto character without a passive or any special skills, added in Update 3. |
Ihigo | With a decent range and air-targeting capabilities, Ihigo is the best starter for new Anime Reborn players, but lacks the necessary strength that units need as you progress. I started with Ihigo and quickly replaced him with Water Goddess as my main. |
Inoke | Similar to Heyey, but with poorer range and damage, making him ineffective. |
Kirit | A poor addition to the game during Update 3, Kirit is pretty much useless to have on your team. He has no passives, and there's nothing special about his stats. |
Kurulin | A rare unit that targets air, which is helpful for early story maps but becomes obsolete quickly. |
Laugfy | With a cone AoE, Laugfy is an average early starter but doesn't stand out later in the game. |
Leo | Leo’s Burn DoT and reasonable shield-breaking ability make him a serviceable unit in specific scenarios, but his slow SPA and subpar DPS leave much to be desired. Compared to other legendary units, he struggles to justify a spot on most teams. |
Magma | Magma’s Burn status effect, lasting 3 seconds with each attack, adds some utility to his kit, but his overall performance is lackluster. As a ground unit costing $800, he fails to stand out among other legendary units. Magma is best avoided unless no better options are available. |
| |
Mr. Set | Were we expecting Mr. Satan's character to be good? I wasn't. He has a poor AoE and can only fight ground enemies. |
Muichori | Though Muichori does have a nice passive that does an extra 2.5% damage each time he's stunned, that means he'd need to be stunned and out of the game for a few seconds. |
Murutu | Boring and pointless, Murutu has no passives and is one of the many legendary units in Anime Reborn. |
Noroto | Viable for his passive that increases damage when other Norotos are nearby, but still lacks any real impact. |
Sabur | With a passive that deals an extra 5% damage to enemies with each consecutive attack, Sabur isn't exactly impressive. Her passive can go up to 20%, but it's still fairly weak. |
Sukura | One of the weakest rare units, though her cheap placement cost could be useful for beginners. |
Susake | Slightly better DPS than the lowest-tier units but not enough to be competitive. |
Tin Tin | Tin Tin's passive 10% attack boost is negligible and doesn’t make a difference in gameplay. |
Usog | One of the only rares that can target air, making him situationally useful, but his low overall stats limit his value. |
Yumcho | For a guy who constantly died in DBZ, it's no wonder that Anime Reborn's version of Yamcha is useless, too. Poor range, poor attack stats. |
Zero | With poor DPS, Zero is outclassed by virtually all other rare units. |
