Since only Mythics and Secrets have passives, these are the best heroes in Anime Dungeons. I arranged them above based on their overall power from mid-game (B/C) to end/late game (S/A). Check out the ranking breakdowns and notes on passives below for each individual unit.
Best Teams, Spells & Classes: You can find info on all of these below the tier list.
S-Tier Heroes
| Heroes | Ranking Notes |
|---|---|
 Cosmic Entity (Infinite) Secret | • A true meta unit that buffs everything you need • You get all three buffs which is the passive damage buff, a proc/active damage trigger and a 5% siphon • A meta unit for all builds |
 Aizon (Hogyoku) Secret | • Sin of Pride has a better threshold for the double damage buff since Aizon’s is at 20% which is really low (Still worth it to play around that threshold) • That said you get a massive damage buff and a 20s active damage proc which is really good |
 Heavenly General (Cataclysm) Secret | • Meta for both physical and mage builds similar to the other S-Tiers due to the general damage buff • Plus, you get a really low CD active damage proc and deal more damage to enemies • Last but not least Mahoraga has the same low HP buff as Aizen and Escanor but his is at 15% HP which is hard to play with but the buff is a massive 4x instead of 2x |
 Crimson Knight (Shadow) Secret | • A must-have on any physical damage build and realistically he’s S-Tier even though he doesn’t have an active damage proc • But he’s still the fourth best unit in the game and you get a 5% siphon • He belongs in every sword build |
A-Tier Heroes
| Heroes | Ranking Notes |
|---|---|
 Sin of Pride (Noon) Secret | • The best low HP damage buff since Pride’s threshold is at 50% which is much easier to play around than Aizen’s and Mahoraga’s • That said the overall damage buff you get is lower but still a must-have on Mage Burn DoT builds |
 Itahi (Crow) Secret | • Similar to Escanor in that he’s a must-have on any magic build using Burn DoTs • Orc King is better for boosting spells but Itahi has a damage active proc which puts him slightly higher • Also Itahi is the best beginner unit that will carry you in all stages of the game |
 Orc King (Giant) Mythic | • Another must-have for a mage build strictly DPS wise due to the spell boost |
 Noruto (Fox) Mythic | • An excellent inclusion into a magic build if you want a bit of lifesteal • That said the lifesteal is on the lower end meaning 2% instead of 5% • That said that’s the best you can do on a Mage build without the S-Tiers |
 Soul Warrior (Bankai) Mythic | • The best lifesteal for a physical build at 5% if you don’t have S-Tiers • An auto-include in any physical damage build, specifically swords for the damage boost |
B-Tier Heroes
| Heroes | Ranking Notes |
|---|---|
 Martial Demon (Unleashed) Mythic | • A weaker life-steal option but you get a strength spell buff which adds up quick in the mid-game • Not for late-game though |
 Kiska (Captain) Mythic | • Similar to Akaza with 2% lifesteal and a physical spell damage buff |
 Love (Demon) Mythic | • A great overall buff for a dagger build in the mid-to-late game |
 Sosuke (Kirin) Mythic | • One of the best mid-game units due to the strength spell buff which shock utility but falls off later |
 Umai Man (Ablaze) Mythic | • The best mid-game Mage unit until you get Itachi and Escanor |
C-Tier Heroes
| Heroes | Ranking Notes |
|---|---|
 S-Rank/National Rank Hunter Mythic | • Lower than Martial Demon even though they have the same lifesteal because SJW is more specific to Dagger builds whereas Akaza is for all physical builds |
 Sword Dancer Mythic | • Decent mid-game unit but the low HP buff isn’t worth playing around with as you start to head into the late game |
 Gaiyu (Hashira) Mythic | • The slow is decent but not as powerful as the freeze effect • Still decent in the mid-game but falls off hard in the late-game |
