Here's a tier list of all Tribe Nine characters:

Tier	Character
S	Tsuruko Semba, Miu Jujo, Q, Minami Oi, Enoki Yukigaya
A	Eiji Todoroki, Jio Takinogawa, Yo Kuronaka
B	Roku Saigo, Koishi Kohinata
C	Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, Hyakuichitaro Senju

S-Tier

Five characters dominate the S-tier in Tribe Nine, with Tsuruko Semba arguably the best. Her support abilities, including the game-changing Invigorating Surge ultimate, boost the entire team while dealing significant damage. Her fluid movement makes her a surprisingly effective damage dealer.

Miu Jujo, an S-tier attacker, excels with her Luminous Crystals, inflicting consistent damage over time. Her high speed allows her to evade enemy attacks, making her a formidable damage dealer.

Q, a powerful tank, boasts high Break Ability and devastating attacks. His Fighting Will stacks amplify his damage output, making him especially effective when paired with Tsuruko Semba and an attacker.

Minami Oi, despite being a 2-star unit, is a valuable healer. Her drone switches between healing and aggressive modes, providing both support and surprisingly effective DPS. Her ranged attacks are beginner-friendly.

Enoki Yukigaya, another top attacker, utilizes Heat stacks built through combos and counterattacks. Unleashing these stacks delivers devastating blows.

A-Tier

Eiji Todoroki is a strong A-tier attacker with both offensive and defensive capabilities. His Brilliant Me! skill reduces damage taken while My Turn to Shine! is active.

Jio Takinogawa is a reliable tank, taunting enemies and mitigating damage. However, his lower damage output relegates him to A-tier.

Yo Kuronaka, the protagonist, is a decent choice with high Break Ability. His somewhat clunky moveset and lower damage compared to S-tier units hold him back.

B-Tier

Roku Saigo and Koishi Kohinata occupy the B-tier. Roku is a decent fighter with average damage, lacking standout abilities. Koishi, a free starting healer, is serviceable for early game but should be replaced with stronger healers when available.

C-Tier

Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju comprise the C-tier. While usable in early to mid-game, their lack of exceptional abilities limits their late-game effectiveness. Tsuki Iroha is a free unit, but Koishi Kohinata is a better early-game investment. Yutaka Gotanda is a passable tank, and Hyakuichitaro Senju offers average damage.

This tier list reflects the current meta; future character releases may shift rankings. Consider your playstyle when building your team.
