I’ve spent over 500 hours testing every unit in Anime Saga across all game modes, raids, and tournaments since the game’s launch in June 2024. After the massive UPD 5 that dropped in February 2026, the meta has completely shifted, and I’m here to give you the most comprehensive tier list you’ll find anywhere.
Whether you’re struggling to beat Kid Buu raids, wondering why your Luffo isn’t cutting it anymore, or trying to decide between saving gems for that Mythical pull, this guide will show you exactly which units dominate in June 2026 and why.
Quick Tier List Overview – Best Units at a Glance
Before diving deep into each character’s strengths and weaknesses, here’s the complete tier breakdown that’ll save you from wasting precious gems on underwhelming units:
| Tier | Units | Quick Summary |
|---|---|---|
| S-Tier | Remu, Zid, Frierin, Chainsaw, Okorun, Doma | Meta-defining units with game-breaking abilities |
| A-Tier | Rohan, Zoru, Inos, Mochi, Agony | Excellent units that excel in specific content |
| B-Tier | Vogita, Sake, Nezu, Sanjo | Solid choices for mid-game progression |
| C-Tier | Ichigan, Itaduro, Tanjigo, Usoap | Early game helpers, replace ASAP |
| D-Tier | Roku, Noroto, Luffo | Avoid investing resources here |
Understanding Anime Saga’s Unit System
The Mythical Level 10 Requirement
Here’s something crucial that most players miss: you cannot pull Mythical units until you reach account level 10. I learned this the hard way after burning 5,000 gems at level 8 wondering why I kept getting Epic units. The game has a 0.1% pull chance for Mythicals with a 250-pull pity system, but none of that matters if you haven’t hit level 10 yet.
My advice? Save every single gem until you reach level 10. The starter units can easily carry you through Stage 1-1 if you know what you’re doing. For more tips on resource management in Roblox games, check out these Anime Story Roblox codes that work similarly.
Unit Rarities and Pull Rates
The gacha system in Anime Saga follows these rates:
- Secret: 0.01% (Limited events only)
- Mythical: 0.1%
- Legendary: 1%
- Epic: 19%
- Rare: 79.9%
S-Tier Units: Game-Changing Powerhouses
Remu (Secret) – The Ultimate Unit
Why Remu Dominates: Remu is hands down the most broken unit in Anime Saga 2026. With insane damage output, excellent AoE coverage, and cooldowns so short you’ll barely notice them, Remu makes every other unit look like a joke.
Pros:
- Highest DPS in the game when evolved
- Massive AoE coverage on all skills
- Extremely short cooldowns
- Can solo entire raids when properly built
- Secret rarity makes you stand out
Cons:
- Extremely hard to obtain (1800 Tokens in Raid Shop)
- Requires heavy investment to reach full potential
Best Traits: Doombringer, Abyssal, Overlord, Warlord, Phantom Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: If you manage to get Remu, prioritize getting her to level 100 before investing in any other units. She’ll carry you through content that would otherwise require a full team of Mythicals.
Zid (Mythical) – The End-Game King
Why Zid is Meta-Defining: Zid scales better than any other unit in the game. While other units might have better early-game performance, Zid becomes an absolute monster in the late game with evolved abilities that can one-shot raid bosses.
Pros:
- Best end-game DPS unit when evolved
- Two skills with iFrames for survivability
- Can heal himself with the second skill
- Very high survivability
- Amazing scaling potential
Cons:
- Requires heavy investment to shine
- Outclassed by some units early game
Best Traits: Doombringer Warlord, Abyssal, Phantom Colossus Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: Pair Zid with a support unit like Doma for maximum effectiveness. The combination of Zid’s damage and Doma’s crowd control creates an unstoppable duo.
Frierin (Mythical) – The Raid Specialist
Why Frierin Excels: Frierin is absolutely insane for raids, especially against bosses. With the ability to attack flying units, place defensive barriers, and dish out insane burst damage with long-duration iFrames, Frierin is a must-have for serious raiders.
Pros:
- Excellent AoE and scaling
- Amazing against bosses
- Insane burst damage
- Can attack flying units
- Can place defensive barriers
- Long-duration iFrames on all moves
Cons:
- Low M1 damage
- Long cooldowns
- High resource investment required
Best Traits: Doombringer, Abyssal, Warlord, Phantom, Bloodlord Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: Save Frierin’s ultimate ability for boss phases. The barrier can save your entire team from wipe mechanics.
Chainsaw (Mythical) – The All-Rounder
Why Chainsaw is Versatile: Chainsaw is the best all-around unit in Anime Saga. With excellent single-target and AoE damage, good scaling, and iFrames on two moves, Chainsaw excels in every game mode.
Pros:
- Best mid-game Mythic DPS
- Amazing end-game AoE DPS
- Excellent burst with first two moves
- Very good scaling
- iFrames on two moves
Cons:
- Not amazing at either defeating bosses or regular mobs
- Outclassed by specialists in specific roles
Best Traits: Doombringer, Abyssal, Phantom, Bloodlord, Warlord Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: Chainsaw works great in hybrid teams that need both single-target and AoE damage. Consider pairing with a dedicated support unit.
Okorun (Mythical) – The Crowd Control Master
Why Okorun is Essential: While Okorun might have lower DPS compared to other Mythicals, his crowd control capabilities are unmatched. With full AoE moves and excellent mob control, Okorun is essential for clearing waves of enemies.
Pros:
- Good damage with excellent AoE
- Excellent for fighting mob packs
- Short cooldowns
- Full AoE moves
- Excellent crowd control
Cons:
- No iFrames makes him bad against Bosses
- Lower overall DPS compared to Zid and Chainsaw
- Long animations can be clunky
Best Traits: Doombringer, Bloodlord, Abyssal, Warlord, Phantom Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: Use Okorun in Story mode where mob clearing is more important than single-target boss damage.
Doma (Mythical) – The Support Specialist
Why Doma is Valuable: Doma is the best support unit in Anime Saga. With the ability to freeze enemies, provide decent damage, and hit flying enemies, Doma brings utility that no other unit can match.
Pros:
- Excellent support unit
- Very good crowd control
- Decent AoE and scaling
- Relatively short cooldowns
- Freezes enemies with abilities
- Second move can hit flying enemies
Cons:
- Low DPS in the end-game
- Worst DPS of all Mythic units
Best Traits: Doombringer, Phantom, Celestial, Warlord, Abyssal Set Passive: Slayer (+20% Damage)
Pro Tip: Doma’s freezing ability can interrupt boss mechanics. Time his abilities carefully for maximum effectiveness.
A-Tier Units: Excellent Performers
Rohan (Legendary) – The Reliable DPS
Why Rohan Belongs in A-Tier: Rohan is the best Legendary DPS unit in the game. With an iFrame move, good damage, short cooldowns, and very good scaling, Rohan can carry you through most content.
Pros:
- Has an iFrame move
- Good damage and range
- Short cooldowns and fast animations
- Very good scaling
Cons:
- Outclassed by Mythical units in end-game
- Requires specific team composition to shine
Best Traits: Doombringer, Abyssal, Warlord, Phantom, Bloodlord Set Passive: Mytrion (+30% EXP)
Pro Tip: Rohan is perfect for players who don’t have access to Mythical units yet. He provides excellent value for his rarity.
Zoru (Legendary) – The Double Strike Specialist
Why Zoru is Meta-Worthy: Zoru’s unique ability to trigger skills twice makes him incredibly valuable. With excellent end-game scaling and amazing DPS, Zoru can compete with some Mythical units.
Pros:
- Moves can trigger an additional time
- Excellent end-game scaling potential
- Amazing DPS
- Decent crowd control
Cons:
- Meta end-game Mythicals are still better
- Requires specific trait setup for maximum effectiveness
Best Traits: Doombringer, Abyssal, Phantom, Bloodlord, Warlord Set Passive: Pirates (+30% Gold and Gems)
Pro Tip: Focus on traits that increase skill trigger chance for maximum double-strike potential.
Inos (Legendary) – The Burst Damage Dealer
Why Inos Makes A-Tier: Inos delivers incredible burst damage and has decent end-game scaling. As the best Legendary unit for beginners, Inos provides excellent value and power.
Pros:
- Very high burst damage
- Decent end-game scaling potential
- Best legendary unit for beginners
- Good crowd control
Cons:
- Long cooldowns
- High SP costs
- Just a worse version of Zoru overall
Best Traits: Doombringer, Warlord, Abyssal, Bloodlord, Phantom Set Passive: Slayer (+20% Damage)
Pro Tip: Use Inos’s burst abilities at the start of fights for maximum impact.
B-Tier Units: Solid Mid-Game Choices
Vogita (Epic) – The Best Epic Unit
Why Vogita Stands Out: Vogita is by far the best Epic unit in Anime Saga. With the ability to hit flying enemies, decent damage, and good scaling, Vogita can actually be viable for end-game content.
Pros:
- Can hit flying enemies
- Decent damage and AoE
- Good scaling potential
- By far the best Epic unit
Cons:
- Subpar damage compared to higher rarity units
- Outclassed by Legendary and Mythical units
Best Traits: Abyssal, Bloodlord, Warlord, Phantom, Overlord Set Passive: Mytrion (+30% EXP)
Pro Tip: If you’re FTP (Free-to-Play), Vogita is your best bet for progression without spending real money.
Sake (Epic) – The Stun Specialist
Why Sake is Valuable: Sake is the only unit in Anime Saga with electric attacks that can stun enemies. As a support unit with excellent crowd control, Sake has a unique niche.
Pros:
- Amazing CC potential
- Stuns enemies
- Decent damage and scaling
- Only unit with electric attacks
Cons:
- Subpar damage compared to higher rarity units
- Pure support role limits solo viability
Best Traits: Phantom, Bloodlord, Celestial, Overlord, Warlord Set Passive: Ninja (-15% Skill cooldown)
Pro Tip: Sake works best in teams with high DPS units that can take advantage of the stun duration.
C-Tier Units: Early Game Helpers
Ichigan (Rare) – The Best Rare Unit
Why Ichigan is Notable: Ichigan is the best Rare unit in Anime Saga, with very good scaling potential and excellent crowd control. While he falls off later, he’s excellent for early progression.
Pros:
- Best Rare unit in Anime Saga
- Very good scaling potential
- Excellent CC
- Has an iFrame move
Cons:
- Falls off later on because it’s a Rare unit
- No set passive bonuses
Best Traits: Overlord, Phantom, Endurance III Set Passive: None
Pro Tip: Use Ichigan until you can replace him with Legendary or Mythical units.
D-Tier Units: Avoid These
Roku (Rare) – The Worst Investment
Why Roku is D-Tier: Roku might have decent early-game damage, but his poor scaling and lack of utility make him a terrible investment. Avoid spending resources on this unit.
Pros:
- Decent DPS and AoE
- Good starter unit
Cons:
- Poor scaling
- Only good early-on
- Outclassed by every other unit
Best Traits: Overlord, Phantom, Endurance III Set Passive: Mytrion (+30% EXP)

Remember that tier lists are guidelines, not absolute rules. The most important thing is to have fun and play with units you enjoy. However, if you want to dominate the meta and clear the hardest content, focusing on S-tier units like Remu, Zid, and Frierin will give you the best results.
