Quick answer

Is Itsoda worth using?

Yes — as the budget carry. Beebom's FAQ names Itsoda the best Legendary in the game, and his kit explains why: Heilige Flugel grows his range while idle up to +15%, and every +5% of that range grants +10% damage, up to +30%. Park him early, let him charge, and he punches two rarities above his cost.

Tier placements are the two public tier lists (Pro Game Guides and Beebom), shown side by side because they disagree on several units — see the full tier list for how we handle conflicts.

How to get

How to get Itsoda

Use the banner route, and do not plan around a made-up per-unit chance.

Step 1
Itsoda comes from summon banners at Legendary rarity — meaningfully cheaper luck than Mythic or Secret pulls. He is the realistic early-game carry while you bank gems for the big banners.
Step 2
Legendary units appear across banner rotations more often than higher rarities; pull when a featuring banner lists him and your gem floor allows.
Step 3
Fund pulls with codes at Level 10 — the launch codes alone cover several Legendary-tier attempts.

Kit and role

How Itsoda fits a team

Heilige Flugel — idle time becomes damage

While Itsoda stands idle (not attacking), he gains +1% range per second up to +15%. Every +5% of that range grants +10% damage, capped at +30%. The loop is unusual: patience literally loads the gun.

Placement follows: put him where waves arrive late or walk long paths, so the idle window fills before contact. On instant-contact maps the scaling barely engages.

Hill typing — the placement puzzle piece

Itsoda is a Hill unit — the map-position class that matters for range coverage and chokes. Hill units see over the terrain that blocks Ground attackers, which pairs naturally with his range-scaling kit.

The tier lists don't yet document full hill/ground placement rules; treat him as the answer to 'who stands on the high ground and shoots'.

The budget-carry math

Beebom's B-tier placement with the 'best Legendary' FAQ note is the honest framing: within Legendaries he is the pick; against Mythics and Secrets he is a placeholder that overperforms his rarity, not a rival to Madaro.

The value is tempo — a Legendary-tier pull that carries story mode while your gem bank grows toward a Mythic nuke or a Secret. Swap him out when the wall outgrows +30%.

What is — and isn't — documented

The wiki roster carries his kit (scaling numbers, Hill typing) with community-high confidence; his tier placement exists only on Beebom (PGG's list covers Secret/Mythic/Exclusive rarities only, so no Legendary appears there).

No evolution requirements or ascension track is published for him yet — when the wiki documents them, this page updates.

Suggested traits for Itsoda

His scaling is range-then-damage, so flat range traits pre-charge the loop and damage multipliers compound the payoff. He is also the cheapest place to spend rerolls productively — Legendary rerolls land in a friendlier pool than Secret-hunting ever will.

Range Damage multipliers

Community picks, not official data — the trait table has every effect and rate, and the reroll calculator shows your odds before you spend.

Spend decision

Should you keep/pull Itsoda?

Early game: yes — he is the documented best Legendary, his scaling is free damage on the maps that suit him, and his pull cost sits two rarity bands below the units he keeps pace with.

Late game: he hands the carry slot to a Mythic or Secret and becomes wave support. Keep him leveled for modes where you need a second damage source on a hill.

If a Legendary reroll is your budget: spend it here rather than gambling trait resources on units you will replace.

FAQ

Itsoda questions

Is Itsoda the best Legendary in Anime Origins?

Beebom names him best Legendary in their FAQ, and his Heilige Flugel scaling (+15% range → +30% damage) is the reason. PGG's tier list skips Legendaries entirely, so no placement exists there.

How does Itsoda's scaling work?

Idle time grants +1% range per second to +15%. Every +5% range gives +10% damage, up to +30% at full charge. Long approach paths maximize it.

What does Hill type mean for Itsoda?

Hill units take the elevated map positions with better sightlines — a natural fit for a range-scaling carry. Full placement rules aren't documented yet.

Is Itsoda worth it late game?

As a carry, no — Mythics and Secrets outscale him. As a second damage source on hill positions in harder modes, yes.

What's the best trait for Itsoda?

Range (pre-charges the scaling loop) and damage multipliers (compounds the payoff).

Who is Itsoda based on?

Uryu Ishida from Bleach — renamed like every anime-inspired unit in the roster.
