Should You Pull for Tanjiro and Zenitsu in Seven Knights Re:Birth. Guide covers whether you should pull for the new heroes, their uses, and their impact on the meta.

Should You Pull for Tanjiro Kamado and Zenitsu Agatsuma?

Pull for Tanjiro Kamado If You Want to Strengthen a Physical Team

Tanjiro Kamado is a Physical Attacker who's useful in both PvP and PvE. His "Transparent World," which grants 100% Weakness Hit Chance and All Attack Pierce, is powerful, and he's a great pick if you want to strengthen a Physical Team or want a highly versatile Hero.

6th Transcendence Effect is Powerful

At 2nd Transcendence, the number of extra hits triggered when an enemy is defeated increases from 1 to 2, and at 6th Transcendence, Transparent World becomes permanently active. Being able to completely ignore Damage Immunity with Pierce attacks at all times is extremely powerful, so 6th Transcendence is ideal for PvP use.

Only Obtainable During the Collab Period

Tanjiro Kamado is only obtainable during the Demon Slayer collab period, and will no longer be available once the collab ends. Keep in mind that you'll need to aim for 6th Transcendence during the collab period if that's your goal. Note that you're guaranteed to get one copy through the collab login event.

Zenitsu Agatsuma is Ideal for Those Wanting a Strong PvP Attacker

Zenitsu Agatsuma is a Physical Attacker whose Ignore Defense, multiple activations, and Execution make him powerful. His Execution skill, which can target the 2 enemies with the highest Attack, is excellent for countering Sunran, who's common in the PvP meta, Tanjiro Kamado, who has Indomitable, and Dongyoung, making him a great pick for anyone wanting a strong PvP Attacker.

Tips!	Tanjiro Kamado is more versatile, but Zenitsu Agatsuma is the one who can counter him in PvP, so Zenitsu Agatsuma is the better pick if PvP is your priority.

2nd Transcendence is a High Priority

At 2nd Transcendence, Debuff Removal grants Cooldown Reduction and generates a Barrier, and at 6th Transcendence, a Shock effect is added. Since 2nd Transcendence excellently strengthens both offense and durability, it's a Transcendence level worth aiming for.

If pairing with Eileene in PvP, 6th Transcendence is ideal.

Only Obtainable During the Collab Period

Zenitsu Agatsuma is also only obtainable during the Demon Slayer collab period, and will no longer be available once the collab ends. Keep in mind that you'll need to aim for 6th Transcendence during the collab period if that's your goal. Note that you're guaranteed to get one copy on Day 3 of the collab login event.

Tanjiro Kamado PvP/PvE Quick Reference

Character	Evaluation	PvP / PvE Rating
Tanjiro Kamado	[Tier Ranking] Near-meta Level [Ranking T0] Transcend is Highly Recommended [Reroll Tier] -	[Guild War] PvP Near-meta [Arena] and [Total War] PvP Near-meta [Infinite Tower] PvE Near-meta

Tanjiro's transparent world grants a 100% Weakness Hit Rate, and defeating enemies with piercing attacks or skills resets cooldowns and allows for consecutive activations, making it extremely powerful in PvP. In PvE, it also excels as a debuff character that inflicts physical weakness and burn.

Zenitsu Agatsuma PvP/PvE Quick Reference

Character	Evaluation	PvP / PvE Rating
Zenitsu Agatsuma	[Tier Ranking] Near-meta Level [Ranking T0] Transcend is Highly Recommended [Reroll Tier] -	[Guild War] PvP Near-meta [Arena] and [Total War] PvP Near-meta [Infinite Tower] PvE Near-meta

Zenitsu is a physical attacker recommended for PvP due to its high damage output thanks to its defense-ignoring, consecutive activation, and execution ability. The ability to execute two high-attack enemies is excellent for countering characters with high attack power such as Sunran.

Tanjiro Kamado's Impact on the Meta

Physical Teams Get a Boost

Beyond being an excellent Attacker, he can also support Attack-type allies with a Delayed Buff and a Physical Attack Reduction passive, boosting both damage and durability. Using him alongside Zenitsu Agatsuma in a Physical Team will strengthen your Physical Team even further.

Damage Immunity Heroes Are at a Disadvantage

Since Transparent World turns all of his attacks into Pierce attacks, heroes with Damage Immunity need to watch out. In the current meta, this includes Eileene's on-revive effect, Hayeon's Skill 2, and Dongyoung's passive.

Also an Option for Advent Expedition

With a Physical Attack Reduction passive, the ability to grant a 2-turn Physical Attack Boost via Delayed Buff, and a 3-target attack skill, he's also a viable pick for PvE content where 3-target Physical attacks are effective, such as Advent Expedition Karma.

Zenitsu Agatsuma's Impact on the Meta

Strengthens Physical Teams Alongside Tanjiro Kamado

As a powerful Attack-type Attacker, his Shock also pairs well with Eileene, making him a great pick for Physical Teams in PvP. He's expected to be used alongside Tanjiro Kamado, which should significantly strengthen Physical Teams.

Strong Meta Fit, Especially Powerful in Guild War

His Execution skill, which can target the 2 enemies with the highest Attack, lets him go after Sunran, and he's also strong against Indomitable-holder Tanjiro Kamado and Dongyoung — all signs of a strong meta fit. He should be especially active in 3v3 Guild War.

Tanjiro Kamado's Team Setup and Alternatives

Best Paired with Attack-Type Heroes

Best Hero Pairings for Tanjiro Kamado
Fai	Kyle	Branze & Bransel	Lu Bu
Randgrid	Karl Heron	Dellons	Orkah
Sunran	Tanjiro Kamado	Zenitsu Agatsuma

Since Tanjiro Kamado has an effect that supports Attack-type allies, he's best paired with Attack-type Heroes. His Effect Hit Rate Boost passive also pairs well with Zenitsu Agatsuma, who has Shock.

Alternative Hero: Dellons

Dellons has similar performance in that he has Pierce attacks, can grant Damage Nullification to allies, and has a single-target 5-hit attack skill with Cooldown Reset that can trigger multiple times. However, Tanjiro Kamado is currently the only Hero with an always-active Pierce effect.

Dellons Rating

Zenitsu Agatsuma's Team Setup and Alternatives

Best for Physical Teams

Best Hero Pairings for Zenitsu Agatsuma
Fai	Kyle	Branze & Bransel	Lu Bu
Randgrid	Karl Heron	Dellons	Orkah
Sunran	Eileene	Tanjiro Kamado

Since he has an Attack-type Crit Rate Boost passive, he's best paired with Attack-type Heroes, just like Tanjiro Kamado. Eileene, who has a Shock Probability Boost passive, also pairs well with him.

Alternative Heroes: Lu Bu and Dellons

In terms of being an Ignore Defense Physical Attacker, Lu Bu can be considered an alternative. Dellons can also work as an alternative with his Execution skill, but Zenitsu Agatsuma's strength lies in being able to target the 2 enemies with the highest Attack.
