Units are the center of Anime Squadron teams. Each one fills a job, such as damage, support, tanking, economy, speed farming, or early lane filling, so a good squad is built around roles instead of rarity alone.

Build around team jobs
A strong team needs more than one rare pull. Damage carries handle the main lane, supports help them cast or survive, tanks protect the back line, and economy units help expensive upgrades arrive sooner. A lower-tier unit can still matter if it solves the problem your current team has.
Plan evolved and secret units early
Evolved and Secret units are long-term goals. Some need parent units, raid clears, banner luck, or heavy account progress before they become realistic. Keep the base forms and support pieces that feed those goals, but avoid spending every reroll item on a temporary unit just because it is your best pull today.
FAQ
How many units are listed for Anime Squadron?
There are 27 listed Anime Squadron units, including early fillers, support units, economy units, damage carries, tanks, speed farming picks, and evolved or Secret targets.
Should I only use the highest-tier Anime Squadron units?
No. High-tier units are strong goals, but teams still need roles. A support, tank, or economy unit can be more useful than another damage unit if it fixes your current run.
Which units should get upgrades first?
Start with a main damage unit that clears your current content, then build the support, tank, economy, or speed unit that helps that carry do its job. Save heavy rerolls for units you expect to keep.
Why do early filler units matter?
Early fillers let new accounts keep lanes covered while stronger pulls are still missing. They should not take your best reroll items, but they can help you reach the rewards that unlock better teams.
What should I check before chasing an evolved or Secret unit?
Check the unlock route, parent-unit needs, role, and investment priority. A powerful target is easier to build when you already know which base units and team slots support it.
