Anime Adventures Shinobi (Eternal) in our tier list
S It sits in S on our list. Most of the creator lists we compared put it in S too, mainly for burn damage that Phoenix multiplies, though that boost is disputed. See the full Anime Adventures Tier List.
Anime Adventures Shinobi (Eternal) strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- Burn damage is the one part of its kit that three creators agree on, so it fits any plan built around a burn buffer such as Phoenix.
- Most of the creator lists we compared put it in S, and the lists that use other scales still rank it near the top.
- Two creators say the Mangekyou eye makes it stronger, which gives it an upgrade beyond traits.
Weaknesses
- Its best pairing is disputed: a dissenting video doubts the Phoenix 300% burn buff reaches it, since it may use black flames.
- The only source on its evolution calls it annoying to get, and we found no list of the materials.
- It is a ground unit, and the strongest praise for it leaves out Soaring enemies, so plan other answers for those.
Our take
- Our read: build Shinobi (Eternal) around Phoenix. Most of its ranking rests on the 300% burn boost, which one side disputes, so check the burn numbers on your own board before you sink rerolls into it.
- Do not mix up the three names. The Rare Shinobi on the Special banner is not the S unit, and we have not confirmed that pulling Shinobi (Awakened) leads to Shinobi (Eternal).
Sasuke is Shinobi (Eternal)
Three Shinobi names you will see
Sasuke is Shinobi (Eternal) in Anime Adventures, the Gomu group’s tower defense game on Roblox. Sasuke is the creator name; the game files the unit line under Shinobi. Three Shinobi names turn up, and only one is the unit creator tier lists rank.
The chart at the top of this section lines them up. A plain Shinobi sat in the Rare tier of the Special banner at 12.5% of the Rare rate. Shinobi (Awakened) sat in the Mythic list of the same banner at 0.652% of the Mythic rate. Both come from in-game screens on November 3, 2026. Shinobi (Eternal) is the name on the creator rankings and the unit this page covers.
We have not confirmed how they connect, and no source links Awakened and Eternal as steps of one evolution. Treat a Rare Shinobi as its own pull, not as the S unit.
How to get Shinobi (Eternal)
We have no confirmed route, only the Special banner at capture time on November 3, 2026. Each summon cost 50 Gems. Mythics rolled at 0.5%, shown as a 2x Mythic rate up, and Rare units took 81.5%. Shinobi (Awakened) was not one of the featured Mythics that day, so the 400-summon Featured (Middle) pity did not point at it. The banner rotates, so check it before you spend. Odds for every banner are on our anime adventures banner rates page.
The only source on evolution lists Shinobi (Eternal) among its picks for beginners, calls the evolution annoying to get, and says to evolve it as early as you can. No source we checked lists the materials, so we print none; check the requirements in the lobby’s Traits & Evolve area.
What Shinobi (Eternal) does in battle
Burn damage is the one point every source on its kit agrees on. The table sorts the rest by source count.
| What creators say | Sources |
|---|---|
| Applies burn damage | 3 creators |
| Mangekyou eye makes it stronger | 2 creators |
| 200% burn with the Mangekyou eye equipped | 1 creator |
| Ground placement, rated near the top for damage per second | 1 creator |
| Large circular area attack plus extra damage over time | 1 creator |
| Magic damage, Spark element | 1 creator, disputed |
| Storm element, implied | 1 creator, disputed |
Our read: a wide circle and ticking damage make it a crowd unit. Plan a ground slot for it, and note that the video rating its DPS among the best leaves Soaring enemies out of that claim.
The element is disputed: one video says Spark, like Sky God and Dark Mage (Fallen Star), and another groups it with Storm. Both treat it as magic damage, so that part is firmer.
Shinobi (Eternal) with Phoenix
Phoenix (creators call it Marco) is the reason Shinobi (Eternal) sits so high. Creators say its Phoenix Flame adds 300% burn damage, and three of the four who discuss the pair apply that boost straight to Shinobi (Eternal). One argues Phoenix brought older burn units like this one back into the meta.
The fourth is not sure: that creator thinks Shinobi (Eternal) uses black flames the buff may not reach, notes Phoenix is physical, and says you cannot really run them together before deciding you can, since Phoenix is a buff. The pair is the standard plan, but the size of the boost is not settled.
Two creators pair Phoenix with Shinobi (Eternal) and a second burn unit, and both rank Shinobi (Eternal) the stronger of the two. A single video goes further with a flame team of Phoenix, Shinobi (Eternal) and Troy Flame (creators call it Roy Mustang), probably the best team right now but very endgame. That creator expects players to settle on a Phoenix team with Shinobi (Eternal) long term, a guess about the meta rather than a game fact. Full lineups are in our anime adventures best team guide.
Where creators rank Shinobi (Eternal)
It sits in S on our list, and most of the creator lists we compared put it in S as well; the full board is on our anime adventures tier list. Lists that use other scales still place it high:
| List | Where Shinobi (Eternal) lands | Sources |
|---|---|---|
| Early UPD 21 ranking | Right behind the top five units, with Explosion Mage (Archdemon) just below it | 1 creator |
| Burn-focused ranking | High, for its damage with Phoenix burn; Illusionist (Transcended) sits below it only because it costs so much | 1 creator |
| Practical ranking | High, judged on how practical it is to use | 1 creator |
The burn-focused creator also calls it the best ground unit in the game before UPD 21, so read it as a pre-update view.
Our S rests on burn damage the sources agree on, a wide area attack and the Phoenix boost. The third is the shaky one; if the 300% buff does not reach it, we will revisit the placement. The anime adventures units hub lists every unit page if you want to weigh it against the rest of your roster.
Traits, modes and what we have not confirmed
A single video says Shinobi (Eternal) with the Unique trait and the Phoenix buff clears almost every stage. The Trait Chances screen we captured on November 3, 2026 lists Unique at a 0.1% chance per reroll, with +300% Damage, +10% Range, -10% Cooldown and Max 1 placed. Our read: the one-copy limit costs little on a carry, so Unique suits it on paper; Divine and Superior III are more common damage rolls.
The only source on modes calls it a fantastic unit for both Infinite and Story. We have no source on Legend Stages, Challenges or Raids.
Still open: how the three Shinobi names connect, the evolution materials, Spark or Storm, whether the Phoenix boost applies in full, and where the Mangekyou eye comes from, which no source we found covers.
What to pair with Anime Adventures Shinobi (Eternal)
- Phoenix: Creators say Phoenix Flame adds 300% burn damage. Three of the four who discuss the pair apply it to Shinobi (Eternal); the fourth is unsure.
- Troy Flame: A single video builds a flame team of Phoenix, Shinobi (Eternal) and Troy Flame and calls it probably the best team right now, but very endgame.
