All Anime Expeditions units by rarity
Rarity is a starting point, not a team answer
Secret and Exclusive entries often sit at the top of a collection, but a rarity label does not tell you whether the unit supplies boss damage, wave clear, crowd control, support, or economy. The same unit can move in value when the map or mode changes.
Base and evolved names must stay separate. Carrot, 8th Sword, Crow, Dark Mage, Puppet, and Shadow all have forms that change the relevant passive or build question, so check the exact form shown in your account.
Best units by job
For damage-focused teams, start comparisons with Prodigy (Rage), Vegetable (Prince), Dark Mage (Sovereign), Shadow (Divine), Crow (Black Fire), 8th Sword (Berserk), and Cursed Student (True Love). Their placement, upgrade timing, and equipment still decide whether the headline damage translates to a clear.
For control or support, compare Salmon Sorcerer (Grade 1), Puppet (Telekinetic), String Demon (Awakened), Forbidden Teacher, The Hero, and Water Princess. Ramen Guy is the economy specialist to consider when the stage length gives its income effect time to matter.
How to choose an investment
Check obtainment, base or evolved form, passive wording, placement limit, upgrade cost, equipment fit, and the mode you want to clear. Then compare the unit with the role page and team shells instead of copying a single ranking.
Before a summon or evolution session, write down the missing job in your team and the live requirement for the target unit. That simple check prevents a rare pull from becoming an expensive bench piece.
