Ultimate Anime Run Kingdom Unit Tier List and Guide [RELEASE 🎉]

In the Anime Run Kingdom Roblox experience, choosing the right units can make all the difference. Some characters offer exceptional value through strong synergy, reliable performance, and unique playstyles that shape how teams are built. Whether it’s through powerful solo potential, healing support, or damage-focused roles, the top-tier units define the current Meta. This Anime Run Kingdom Unit Tier List and guide highlights key characters, such as Agua, Shadow, and Bokki, who are worth investing in and explains how they enhance your overall strategy.

Anime Run Kingdom Unit Tier List

The current Meta in Anime Run Kingdom is built around strong team synergy and reliable performance in solo content. Units like Shadow stand out for their high damage without needing evolution, while support from characters such as Bokki can make even tough fights manageable. With the right setup, a tank like Zura can carry entire Raids, making these types of units essential for late-game progress.

Meta Units

These Meta Tier picks feature the most essential units in the game, each playing a key role in team success. From Agua’s top-tier healing to Shadow’s powerful non-evo DPS and Zura’s unmatched tanking, these characters shine especially in solo Raids when combined with supports like Bokki and evolved Breeza.

Unit	Bond	Description	How to Get
Agua	N/A	Agua is the top healer in the game, capable of solo healing an entire team and essential for most Raids. Just make sure she has a decent healing set.	Banner
Shadow	Shadow Garden	Shadow is the strongest non-evo DPS unit and holds up well against many evolved characters, plus he’s easier to obtain. Equip him with double attack gear for best results.	Event Shop
Bokki	N/A	Bokki is the best support unit available and becomes crucial for handling solo Raids in the late game.	Banner
Zura	N/A	Zura stands out as the best tank thanks to a Summon that grants 65% damage reduction to your team, making him perfect for solo Raids. Use double defense or HP gear to maximize his potential.	Banner
Breeza	Villains	Breeza is a solid pick from the start and becomes one of the strongest DPS evolutions, with materials easily found in Raids. Once fully evolved, he can even solo Raids if paired with Zura and Agua+Bokki.	Evolve the base unit.

S-Tier Units

Kenpaki, Byekuya, and Zawa are among the strongest evolutions, offering balanced power but requiring long grinds for materials. For a quicker alternative, Kiwido and Azuno are solid picks with easier Battlepass-based evolutions.

Unit	Bond	Description	How to Get
11th Kenpaki (TYBW)	Soul Reapers	11th Kenpaki is one of the top charge Evolution units, but evolving him requires grinding his stages for hours to gather materials.	Evolve the base unit.
Cokeku (Angel SSJ3)	Z Fighters	Cokeku offers solid performance as an Evolution unit, but, like the others, requires lengthy farming sessions for its materials.	Evolve the base unit.
Byekuya (TYBW)	Soul Reapers	Byekuya is competitive with the other top Evolutions, but evolving him involves a grind of 5 to 15 hours. All of these units work well for soloing content when paired with Agua, Zura, and Bokki for support.	Evolve the base unit.
Zawa (Bandana)	Strawhats	Zawa stands out as a strong Evolution choice, but also demands a significant time investment to farm evolution materials.	Evolve the base unit.
Sesoke (Curse Mark)	Villains	Sasoke is well balanced among the best Evolutions, though acquiring his evolution materials can take many hours of grinding.	Evolve the base unit.
Kiwido (Star King)	Beaters	Kiwido is a great evolution option if you’re looking to avoid heavy grinding. His evolution materials are unlocked at level 50 in the Battlepass, though keep in mind it’s only available through the Premium version.	Evolutions unlocked with materials from the Level 50 Battlepass.
Azuno (Stacia)	Beaters	Azuno is another solid evolution that’s much easier to get than most regular ones. You can grab her materials at level 50 of the free Battlepass, making her a convenient pick for players who want to progress quickly.	Evolutions unlocked with materials from the Level 50 Battlepass.

A-Tier Units

Epsolon is a top-tier tank just behind Zura and works best with Shadow for strong synergy. Freeren, Smush, and Eyehawk are the strongest Mythic DPS options, ideal if you don’t have evolved or event units.

Unit	Bond	Description	How to Get
Weguta (Majin SSJ2)	Villains	Weguto is a decent evolution if you’re not able to get materials or Mythics for the stronger options. He’s slightly weaker than the top picks but still useful, especially if you like the character or want to complete a Bond set.	Evolve the base unit.
RukiRuki (TYBW)	Soul Reapers	RukiRuki falls just below the top-tier evolutions, but can still be a solid choice if you’re missing the stronger materials. Like the others, she’s good for Bond sets or if you simply prefer her playstyle.	Evolve the base unit.
Epsolon	Shadow Garden	Epsolon has the potential to be the second-best tank after Zura and usually outperforms Huffy in that role. For best results, use double defense or HP gear and pair her with Shadow to activate the Shadow Garden buff.	Event Shop
Huffy (Snake Man)	Strawhats	Huffy can work as a backup tank if you’re short on better options, though he’s not as strong as Zura in that role. He’s worth evolving if you’re after the Bond effect or just enjoy using him.	Evolve the base unit.
Freerun	N/A	Freeren is the best beginner-friendly Mythic/Banner Summon and a top-tier DPS option overall. She’s a solid pick if you’re just starting out or need strong damage without relying on Evolutions or Event units.	Banner
Eyehawk	N/A	Eyehawk is a powerful DPS Mythic that works best when matched with the right team. If you’re missing evolved or event units, he’s a great alternative to help round out your lineup.	Banner
Smush	N/A	Smush is one of the strongest Mythic DPS units and a reliable pick when you need to fill a role on your team. Like Eyehawk, his performance depends on team synergy, but he’s a great fallback if Evolutions aren’t available.	Banner

B-Tier Units

Byekuya and Kenpaki are solid units that can shine with support but need a lot of stage grinding to evolve. Breeza is a reliable early DPS, while Huffy offers a decent tank option if you’re lacking stronger picks. For easier progress, Azuno and Kiwido are good evolution choices from the Battlepass, with Kiwido requiring the Premium version.

Unit	Bond	Description	How to Get
Byekya	Soul Reapers	A solid unit that requires farming evolution materials through lengthy stage grinds, but still effective when supported by Agua, Zura, and Bokki.	Banner
Azuno	Beaters	Easier to obtain through the free Battlepass and a good option if you want to avoid heavy grinding before evolving.	Battlepass
Huffy	Strawhats	A decent tank alternative, though not as strong as top tanks like Zura, suitable if you’re focusing on Bond set effects or lack better options.	Banner
Kenpaki	Soul Reapers	A strong base unit that requires a significant grind of 5 to 15 hours to gather evolution materials, but can perform well when supported by Agua, Zura, and Bokki.	Banner
Breeza	Villains	A reliable starter DPS unit who’s decent on their own while you farm for the whole power evolution from Raids.	Banner
Kiwido	Beaters	Available through the Premium Battlepass, Kiwido is a convenient evolution candidate for players who want to skip intense grinding.	Battlepass

C-Tier and Below Units

These units are generally underwhelming and fall short compared to the top-tier picks. They’re okay as early-game fillers, but most are forgettable unless you’re aiming for Bond effects or just like the characters.

Unit	Bond	Description	How to Get
Soonade	N/A	She’s a solid alternative if you don’t have Agua and works well if you want to run a double healer setup. Ensure she is equipped with a healing set.	Banner
Alpho	Shadow Garden	This unit is the top DPS in the Shadow Garden set after Shadow and works well if you’re aiming for double Shadow Garden DPS to activate the Bond set bonus alongside Epsolon as tank and Shadow as main DPS.	Event Shop
Naroto (Sage Mode)	Team 7	Norato is considered the weakest evolution unit because of its high cooldowns and lower stats, but it remains a viable choice. However, the materials needed to evolve him are also quite rare.	Evolve the base unit.
Broccoli	Villains	Broccoli Z is a decent beginner Mythic tank, but tends to be outperformed by Epsolon and Zura since he’s more of a damage/tank hybrid rather than a dedicated tank. On the plus side, he’s easy to obtain.	Free
Yurr	N/A	Yurr makes a good secondary DPS option if you’re missing some of the top-tier units. Although some community opinions ranked her as S-Tier, that was based on a bug that’s since been fixed, so it’s best to set those expectations aside.	Banner
Delto	Shadow Garden	Delto is a fighter who has solid performance and synergy within the Shadow Garden set. She offers reliable damage and works well alongside key units to boost the team’s overall effectiveness.	Event Shop
Sword	N/A	Sword is a fighter unit who struggles a bit in battles due to underwhelming stats and abilities, making him a less reliable choice compared to others.	Summon
Astra	N/A	Astra, like the others in this tier, is generally underpowered and best viewed as a beginner option or a unit to avoid if you have better choices available.	Summon
Liveua	N/A	Liveua is quite squishy, which limits her effectiveness and places her among the less powerful Mythic options.	Summon
Gone	N/A	Gone struggles mainly due to very long cooldowns, making him one of the weaker Mythic units in this tier.	Summon
Redward	N/A	Redward has improved with recent buffs, but he still remains a lower–tier choice compared to others.	Summon
