Why the top units are top

UnitWhat it does
RogerBest support — buffs the whole team and bypasses enemy shields. Anchors almost every strong comp.
SokonuWave-clear DPS — the carry option for farming stages fast.
StorkAoE coverage — pairs with Sokonu for full-lane pressure.
SpedwagThe economy unit — farms the currency that pays for everyone else's upgrades. Not a fighter, still S-tier.
MegomuSlows targets and gets bonus follow-ups on slowed enemies — A-tier glue for control comps.
FojiHits both air and ground with Slow — the best Legendary, excellent as a first real unit.

Universe buffs — the other half of the meta

Units from the same anime universe buff each other. Building around one franchise amplifies everything, but don't force it past a stronger off-franchise carry.

Jujutsu Kaisen

Sokonu, Goju, Megomu, Itodoki — the strongest single-universe core right now.

One Piece

Roger, Rocket, Foji, Kitzaru, San-g, Lofy, Zorto — wide roster, easy to assemble.

Bleach

Ishgo Mythic and Ishgo Rare — thin but potent if Ishgo is your carry.

Naruto

Itoshi, Saskee, Sakura — a smaller trio, best as a secondary buff.

New Secrets — where they drop

UnitHow to get it
FreezoNamek Portals from Infinite mode
Demon KingEndless mode via the Invitation item — reportedly what the INVITED code grants at level 100
Ultra GowkoThe Update 0 MUI Goku event panel
Trait targets: Galactic is the chase trait for carries (Sokonu, Roger, Zid, Itoshi, Goju, Joren); Chosen for Ichigo/Starrk; Bounty Hunter for Spedwag; Marksman for Foji and Megomu.

FAQ

What's the best unit in Anime Galaxies?

Roger for support value — team buffs plus shield bypass fits every comp. For pure damage, Sokonu is the wave-clear carry.

Are the Update 0 units worth grinding?

Provisional rankings put Ultra Gowko, Freezo and Demon King at S — strong but still being tested. Freezo's Namek Portal farm is the most reliable route if you want one now.

Do universe buffs beat rarity?

Sometimes — a stacked one-universe team outperforms a mixed team of higher rarities. The exception is a genuinely top-tier off-franchise carry like Roger.

Best Legendary for new players?

Foji — hits air and ground with Slow, the best value pick before Mythics land.
