Anime Fighting Simulator Bloodlines: Tier List, Rankings, and Best Picks

Mangekyou Sharingan is the clear top Bloodline special because its full ability cycle can reach roughly 900 to 1,000 true damage, and Armored Rain carries a huge part of that output. Rinnegan and Perfect Susanoo are usable but flawed B-tier picks, while Insect, Bakugan, and Sharingan fall behind on boss damage, range, or reliable PvE value.

Full Bloodline tier list in Anime Fighting Simulator

This ranking covers all six Bloodline specials tested in the current patch window: Mangekyou Sharingan, Rinnegan, Perfect Susanoo, Insect, Bakugan, and Sharingan. The gap between S tier and the rest is large because boss damage matters more than visual flair or rarity.

How these Bloodlines were ranked

The biggest factor is true boss damage per full ability cycle, meaning the total damage from using each move once. A Bloodline with one flashy move but poor real boss output drops quickly, especially if the moves force you into melee range.

Range, end lag, leveling speed, acquisition difficulty, PvP value, bugs, and whether moves actually damage bosses or environment enemies also matter. That is why Perfect Susanoo stays below Mangekyou Sharingan despite high damage, and why Sharingan ranks low even though it has PvP-style utility.

S tier: Mangekyou Sharingan is the best Bloodline

Mangekyou Sharingan belongs in S tier because its damage is far above the rest of the Bloodline list. A full cycle can land around 900 to 1,000 true damage without relying on boosts, transformations, or outside power stacking.

The move that pushes it over the top is Armored Rain. It gives Mangekyou Sharingan the kind of heavy burst that Bloodlines need for bossing, and it performs strongly even against Karama. With current numbers, it can nearly erase that boss by itself when the damage lines up.

The only major warning is balance. Mangekyou Sharingan’s S-tier spot depends heavily on its current damage cycle, so a direct nerf to Armored Rain or its total boss damage would drag it down fast.

B tier: Rinnegan and Perfect Susanoo are strong but awkward

Rinnegan is the cleaner B-tier pick. Almighty Push has good range, the moves let you keep moving without end lag, and the full cycle lands around 430 true damage. That is usable, but it is not enough to justify a higher rank when the Bloodline is hard to get and most of its kit still plays close-range.

Perfect Susanoo has the bigger number, reaching almost 900 true damage across its cycle. The problem is everything around that number: poor range, buggy behavior, heavy close-range risk, difficult acquisition, and a transformation state that stops you from using other abilities while it is active.

C tier: Insect is easy to use but low damage

Insect is accessible, quick to level, and has only 30 levels, which makes it much less demanding than the rarer Bloodlines. Its moves include Insect Assault, Insect Eruption, and Insect Tornado.

The issue is output. Insect does around 150 true damage per cycle, which is far below the stronger bossing options, and its attacks are mostly short-range.

Its best quality is style and comfort rather than power. Insect Tornado follows your character as you move, making it one of the more fun visual moves in the set, but that does not push it past C tier.

D tier: Bakugan and Sharingan fall short

Bakugan has three moves: Revolving Sky, Trigram Assault, and Trigram Grid. Revolving Sky has defensive value because you take no damage while using the C move, but the rest of the kit does not bring enough boss pressure.

Its current boss damage sits around 120 to 150, and early players saw much higher release numbers before that damage was reduced. The buff from Trigram Grid also looked underwhelming in testing, so Bakugan ends up as a weak D-tier Bloodline despite being rare.

Sharingan has a different problem. It is built around PvP ideas like Genjutsu, copying an opponent’s ability after being hit, and Perception Elevation, but PvP is not the main reason most players are choosing Bloodlines.

Its value drops even further because some abilities appeared not to damage environment enemies properly, even when the move description suggested damage should happen. If that behavior is fixed, Sharingan could climb, but right now it is a D-tier pick for general play.

Best Bloodline picks for bosses, grinding, and PvP

If you are choosing based on use case instead of pure tier rank, the answer changes slightly. Mangekyou Sharingan is still the best overall, but Rinnegan and Perfect Susanoo can fill narrower roles if you already have them.

For most players, bossing and grinding matter more than niche PvP utility. That keeps Mangekyou Sharingan as the best investment, with Rinnegan as a workable general option and Perfect Susanoo only worth using if you can handle close-range risk.

Balance changes that could shift the Bloodline tiers

This tier list is current to the patch window where the six Bloodlines were tested. The biggest possible shift is a Mangekyou Sharingan nerf, because its S-tier rank leans hard on its current 900 to 1,000 true damage cycle.

Bakugan could also move if its release damage changes again, while Sharingan would gain value if its non-damaging enemy interactions are fixed. Until then, the ranking favors reliable boss damage over rarity, visuals, or PvP-only tricks.
