Our Anime Defenders tier list is here to help you weed out the good units from the downright useless. As a tower defense game, Anime Defenders makes you rely upon the characters at your disposal, and if you happen to choose the wrong ones for the job, well, your base will fall faster than a soccer player after a mistimed tackle.
Anime Defenders isn’t the only Roblox game full of characters like this, so make sure you check out our Anime Last Stand tier list to see which units are worth your time in that game. We also have a Wuthering Waves tier list and a Genshin Impact tier list if you want to see who the best heroes are in those gacha games.
Anime Defenders tier list
We consider both our own experiences and the thoughts of the community when putting together these rankings. Of course, as with any guide of this nature, you might not agree with our choices, but that’s okay. One of the best things about games like Anime Defenders is that, with so many characters, there’s a perfect unit for everyone. We might put a character in rank D, but if they’re an integral part of your strategy, making them an A or S rank to you, and that’s great – we encourage you to try the units out until you find the best ones for you.

How do I get new Anime Defenders units?
To unlock new Anime Defenders units, you need to head into the summon building in the hub and go onto the summons pad. Once here, you can purchase new units in exchange for gems (which you can get plenty of from our Anime Defenders codes guide) and even sell the ones you don’t want in exchange for in-game currency.
And that concludes our Anime Defenders tier list. After your base is secure, make sure you go to our Roblox game codes page to see what freebies you can get. We also have a Squad Busters codes guide.
