Anime Fighting Simulator Champions Tier List

This Anime Fighting Simulator champions tier list uses a stat-focused approach rather than placing every Champion into one universal tier. That method is more useful because a Champion can be outstanding for Strength or Speed while offering less value for another part of a build.

The rankings below use the reported max-level percentages for each stat. Common and Uncommon Champions reach max level 10, Rare and Epic Champions reach max level 20, and Legendary, Mythic, and Secret Champions reach max level 30.

How to Read the Rankings

Treat each stat list as its own leaderboard. The best Champion for a Speed-focused build may not be the best choice for Strength, Sword, or Chakra.

Best Strength Picks

  • Curse King: 90%
  • Boron: 80%
  • Quake and Brokai: 74%
  • Curse Hunter follows at 69%

Best Defensive Picks

  • Jogu: 80% Durability
  • Boron: 80% Durability
  • Curse King: 75%
  • Brokai: 74%

Best Mobility Picks

  • Jogu: 100% Speed
  • Jogu: 100% Agility
  • Special Grade: 60% Agility
  • Lykon: 40% Speed

The most broadly valuable Champion is Jogu if your priority is movement and agility. Its 100% Speed and 100% Agility bonuses stand well above the other listed options. Jogu also contributes 80% Durability and 85% Chakra, making it useful beyond mobility-focused builds.

Curse King is the strongest listed Strength option at 90% and also ranks first for Sword at 80%. Boron is a flexible alternative with 80% Strength, 80% Durability, and 80% Chakra. These three Secret Champions should be high-priority targets when your build can use their stats.

Champion Rankings by Stat

A stat-by-stat comparison makes team planning easier. Instead of chasing rarity alone, choose the Champion that improves the attribute you actively train or use most often.

Strength and Durability

Strength is led by Curse King, followed by Boron, then Quake and Brokai at 74%. Curse Hunter remains a competitive Mythic option with 69%. If you are building around direct damage, these Champions offer the clearest upgrade path from the listed rankings.

Durability is more concentrated at the top. Jogu and Boron share the highest listed value at 80%, while Curse King reaches 75% and Brokai reaches 74%. Quake is still useful at 59%, especially when its Strength bonus also fits your build.

Chakra and Sword

Jogu leads Chakra at 85%, with Boron at 80%. Mada and Puya both provide 74%, while Sparrow reaches 50%. For Sword, Curse King narrowly leads at 80%, followed by Puya at 79%. Curse Hunter is the next Mythic choice at 59%.

This creates a useful split: Jogu is the strongest listed choice for Chakra and mobility, while Curse King is the preferred damage-oriented option for Strength and Sword. Boron sits between these roles with three separate 80% bonuses.

Avoid Rarity-Only Choices

A higher rarity does not automatically make a Champion the correct pick for your build. Check the actual stat percentage and the attribute you need before spending resources.

Speed and Agility

Jogu dominates both movement categories at 100%. The next listed Speed option is Lykon at 40%, followed by Kakosh and Kilren at 30%. For Agility, Special Grade reaches 60%, while Hurt provides 35% and Kilren provides 30%.

These gaps are large enough to affect how you approach movement-heavy progression. If Jogu is unavailable, Lykon is the listed Speed fallback, while Special Grade is the clearest Agility alternative.

Fruit Tier List and Build Synergy

Fruits add another layer to your build. The current ranking guidance places Flame and Ice at the top, with Magma and Sand close behind. Light follows those options, while the lower tiers remain below the leading group.

Fruit tierFruitsRecommended use
Top choicesFlame, IceStrong general-purpose options
High choicesMagma, SandReliable alternatives with strong performance
Competitive optionLightUseful when its playstyle fits your build
Lower tiersOther listed FruitsConsider when availability or preference matters

Flame remains a strong choice, while Ice has become one of the leading Fruits after recent changes. Magma and Sand continue to be dependable second-tier options, and Light stays close behind them.

The best pairing depends on your Champion goal:

  • Strength build: Pair a leading Fruit with Curse King, Boron, Quake, or Brokai.
  • Mobility build: Jogu is the natural Champion target because of its Speed and Agility bonuses.
  • Chakra build: Jogu, Boron, Mada, and Puya are the strongest listed choices.
  • Sword build: Curse King and Puya provide the best listed bonuses.
  • Balanced build: Boron offers useful Strength, Durability, and Chakra support.
Recommended Starting Priority

If you do not have a specialized build yet, prioritize a strong Fruit first, then target a Champion that improves your most-used combat stat.

A balanced setup does not need to use the single highest percentage in every category. It is often more practical to choose one main stat, one supporting stat, and a Fruit that complements your preferred combat rhythm.

For example, Jogu supports fast movement and Chakra while still contributing Durability. Curse King is more focused on Strength and Sword. Boron offers a middle-ground setup for players who want damage, survivability, and Chakra in one Champion.

Cursed Techniques: Top Picks and Locations

Cursed Techniques provide another major build decision. Weapon Specialist is one of the strongest choices listed, with Rika close behind. Shrine is also a practical option and has a specific crafting route tied to Cursed King Finger, Cursed Heart, and Cursed Essence.

1

Reach the JJK Academy Capsule

Interact with the capsule next to the Gojo NPC at JJK Academy on the new island to obtain Cursed Techniques.

2

Choose a Technique Goal

Aim for Weapon Specialist or Rika when you want a leading option. Shrine is another worthwhile target if you can collect its crafting materials.

3

Collect Shrine Materials

Gather 1 Cursed King Finger, 3 Cursed Hearts, and 10 Cursed Essence for the Shrine crafting requirement.

4

Find the Sukuna NPC

Go near the burning buildings to the left of the Yuta NPC. The Sukuna NPC is in front of the Malevolent Shrine Key lock.

5

Craft and Test the Technique

Complete the interaction after meeting the material requirement, then test the technique with your Champion and Fruit combination.

The Shrine route rewards preparation because its materials are specific. Confirm your inventory before traveling to the Sukuna NPC so you do not spend time retracing the route.

The available location references are also useful when exploring the new island. Special Grade can be found beside the 100T Dura Training area and back at JJK Academy, while Sorcerer Hunter is located in the Snowy Area.

Location Reminder

The capsule near Gojo is the starting point for Cursed Techniques. The Shrine crafting route uses the Sukuna NPC near the Malevolent Shrine Key lock.

Upgrade Plan and Final Checklist

The most efficient way to use this tier list is to upgrade toward a clear objective. Do not spread resources across every category unless you are intentionally building a flexible setup.

Use the following checklist when reviewing your current setup:

Tier List Progress Checklist:

  • Choose one primary stat for your current build
  • Compare Champion percentages instead of rarity alone
  • Target Jogu for Speed, Agility, or Chakra-focused progression
  • Target Curse King for Strength or Sword-focused progression
  • Collect Shrine materials before visiting the Sukuna NPC

A practical progression order is:

  1. Select the stat that controls your preferred combat approach.
  2. Equip the best available Champion for that stat.
  3. Choose a Fruit from the leading options that matches your playstyle.
  4. Work toward Weapon Specialist, Rika, or Shrine.
  5. Recheck your setup after obtaining a higher-percentage Champion.
Editor’s Recommendation

For most players, Jogu is the standout mobility and Chakra target, while Curse King is the strongest focused option for Strength and Sword.

The rankings are a decision aid, not a requirement to replace every current Champion immediately. A lower-ranked option that is already upgraded may provide better short-term value than an unavailable top-ranked Champion. Upgrade when the new stat bonus meaningfully supports your build.

Q: Who is the best Champion in the Anime Fighting Simulator champions tier list?

There is no single best Champion for every stat. Jogu leads Speed and Agility at 100% and also ranks highly for Chakra and Durability. Curse King leads Strength at 90% and Sword at 80%, while Boron is a flexible option with 80% Strength, Durability, and Chakra.

Q: Which Champion is best for Speed and Agility?

Jogu is the strongest listed choice for both categories, with 100% Speed and 100% Agility at max level.

Q: What are the best Fruits in Anime Fighting Simulator?

Flame and Ice are the leading choices in the current ranking guidance. Magma and Sand remain strong alternatives, while Light follows closely behind them.

Q: How do I craft Shrine?

The listed Shrine requirement is 1 Cursed King Finger, 3 Cursed Hearts, and 10 Cursed Essence. Visit the Sukuna NPC near the burning buildings to the left of the Yuta NPC, in front of the Malevolent Shrine Key lock.
