Anime Crusaders Units Tier List (March 2026)

You've got 50 Gems burning a hole in your pocket. The summon banner is glowing. You click the button, hold your breath, and... another Krillo. We've all been there.

Anime Crusaders throws over 73 units at you, from common Legendaries to game-breaking Secrets. But you can only bring six into battle. Pick the wrong ones, and even the easiest waves will crush you. Pick the right ones, and you'll sail through content like it's nothing.

This Anime Crusaders tier list cuts through the noise. We've tested every unit, crunched every number, and ranked them from S-tier powerhouses to D-tier benchwarmers. Whether you're hunting for Puci (Made in Heaven) or wondering if that new pull is worth the investment, this guide has the answers.

How This Anime Crusaders Tier List Works

This Anime Crusaders tier list ranks every unit based on:

  1. Damage output – How much pain can they dish out?
  2. Utility – Do they buff allies or debuff enemies?
  3. Cost efficiency – Are they worth the deployment price?
  4. Scaling – Do they hold up in late-game waves?

Units are categorized from S Tier (massively overpowered) down to D Tier (early-game filler). Let's dive in.
