I re-read the Fandom community tier list on 3 November 2026. Its last edit, on 25 October 2026, only fixed unit names such as Spirit to Soul; no unit moved tier. The newest names on it are still Chuuni, Violentine, and Kansai from the April Fool's banner, and none of the Update 21 units are listed. I am not calling this a post-update meta. It is the last public community ranking I could cite.
Damage units the community still marks META
Damage per second on that page is community math (damage divided by attack rate). Unit damage also rolls about ±10% at random, and an evolution rerolls upward. Traits and relics are not in these numbers.
| Role | Unit | Cited figure |
|---|---|---|
| Hill / hybrid | Illusionist (Transcended) | DPS 107,380 |
| Hill / hybrid | Fused Hero | Total DPS 322,140 |
| Hill / hybrid | Dark Mage (Fallen Star) | DPS 91,168.68 |
| Ground | Shinobi (Eternal) | DPS 47,937.84 |
| Ground | Dracula (Unholy King) | DPS 42,952.3 |
Other META hill names on the same page: Divine General, Elyssia (Abyssal), Zombie (Risen), Griffin (Darkness), Berserker (Rage), Spider (Immolation), Supreme Being (Sovereign).
Farm, bleed, and support are not official categories
I grouped farm and bleed myself so the page answers "what should I build" questions. The wiki does not publish those as tier tabs. Treat the grouping as an editorial sort of sourced effects.
Farm: the Golden trait adds 30% damage and 20% Yen, and the traits page calls that ideal for Bulby and C.E.O. Weather Girl (Thief) is described as a farm unit that only receives the damage half of Golden.
Bleed stops enemy healing completely and can stack. Named bleed units include Menace, Cursed King, Bleed Queen, Hammergirl, Ghoul (Centipede), Demon Girl, Blood (Unleashed), Mangaka (Artist), Saka, and Blade Beast (Past).
Support: Griffin (Reincarnation) is described as +100% damage for all units, including other players' units, stacking with Commander, Wind Dragon, Elfy (Sylph), Blossom, Skeleton (Soul King), and Idol (Star). Shadowgirl (Time Traveller) — the unit players search as Homura — sits in META support.
Questions players ask
What is the best Anime Adventures unit?
No single answer. The community page points hill players at Illusionist (Transcended) or Fused Hero, ground players at Shinobi (Eternal) or Dracula, and support players at Griffin (Reincarnation), Commander, or Elfy (Sylph).
Does this include Update 21?
No. Update 21 went live on 1 November 2026, but the community list was last edited on 25 October and the new units have no wiki stats yet. They stay off this list until numbers exist.
Is this the official tier list?
No. Gomu has not published one. This page cites the Fandom community list and labels the farm/bleed split as ours.
