This is a guide-style article from Destructoid, published on 9 July 2026, ranking the best units in the mobile/anime game Anime Overseer and advising players on which characters to invest in. It matters chiefly to players of the game, offering a curated meta overview across the four core roles — DPS, Speed, Tanking and Support — alongside recommended traits, evolution materials and resource-farming routes.

The tier list places Michael (Progenitor) and Brolu (LSSJ) at the top, with Brolu named the game's strongest DPS unit and Michael a versatile tank-DPS hybrid ranked among the top three overall. Other S-Tier picks include Akoza and Jogo, while A- and B-Tiers list alternatives such as Nayoma, Chazo, Friera, Dengen and Obeto; beginner-friendly C-Tier options are Sonic Ninja, Kotaro and Hawk. The piece also recommends Pain (Tendo) as the best stunner and Freezer as the best debuffer, and closes with farming tips, suggesting the Infinity Express Raid Act 3 for Gems and Gold and grinding Blue Planet on Nightmare difficulty for EXP.
