Pet tier list

Pets are a big part of damage and quality-of-life. Swap pets when you change modes (farming vs raids) if the bonus fits.

S tier

Pet Source Summary
⚔️ Igris
Legendary
Shadow Garden Raid Shop (1,500 Shadow Coins) Igris is the best pet in Anime Apocalypse. Its +35% ATK bonus is the highest single damage bonus of any pet, and the +8% Lifesteal enables indefinite Infinite Mode survival — every hit regenerates 8% of dealt damage as HP. Igris is the second Raid Shop purchase after Shadow Cloak (850 SC), before Atomic (2,500 SC).
🎭 Hollow Mask
Legendary
Shadow Garden Raid boss drop (2%) / Infinity Castle Raid boss drop (3%) Hollow Mask (pet) is S-tier — its +30% ATK and +15% ATK Speed pair exceptionally well with Flash Trait's existing +25% ATK Speed for a combined +40% ATK Speed total. The +12% V-skill bonus multiplier is the only V-skill-specific pet bonus in the game, making Hollow Mask the best pet for V-skill-focused builds (Atomic, Destructive Fists, Coyote).

A tier

Pet Source Summary
🐱 Nyanmaru
Epic
Pet Spin (Epic pool ~10%) Nyanmaru is the best farming pet — its +20% Coins is the highest coin bonus of any pet. Stacked with Fortune Trait (+25% Coins), Admiral Cloak (+10% Coins), and x2 Coin Boost, Nyanmaru contributes to a massive multiplicative coin income stack. Swap Nyanmaru for Igris when doing combat content (raids, dungeons); equip Nyanmaru for Shibuya Infinite coin farming.
🦊 Kurama
Epic
Pet Spin (Epic pool ~10%) / In-game vendor (15,000 Coins) Kurama is the best Mastery XP pet — its +10% Mastery XP stacks with x2 Mastery Boost (active) and Master Trait (+20% Mastery XP) for maximum Mastery leveling speed. Use Kurama as primary pet from Level 1 through Mastery 100 to minimize the leveling time investment. After Mastery 100, replace Kurama with Igris or Hollow Mask.
🐉 Dragon King
Epic
Pet Spin (Epic pool ~8%) Dragon King is A-tier for early Dungeon progression — its +60 HP bonus combined with +10% Regen Rate provides the highest survivability bonus of any Epic pet. Use Dragon King for early Dungeon Normal and Nightmare runs before Igris lifesteal is available.

B tier

Pet Source Summary
🖐️ Sukuna's Hand
Rare
Pet Spin (Rare pool ~20%) Sukuna's Hand is a B-tier combat pet — the -10% Cooldown pairs with Flash Trait's -20% CDR for a combined -30% CDR total. The +20% Curse Damage only applies to Jujutsu Kaisen-themed abilities (Domain Expansion, King of Curses) — limited in most builds. Use Sukuna's Hand specifically in Domain Expansion + Flash builds before Igris is available.
