For the September 2, 2026 snapshot (version 3.6.2), Pocket Gamer places [Savor the Melt] Satoru Gojo, [Heaven-Piercing Strike] Yuji Itadori, and [The Golden Age of Cursed Techniques] Noritoshi Kamo in S tier. That is one publisher’s editorial ranking, not an official or permanent game order. This Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade tier list ranks playable card variants—not franchise characters in the abstract—and should be read against its date and version.
September 2026 tier snapshot
Pocket Gamer’s list, updated September 2, 2026 and labeled version 3.6.2, uses S, A, B, and C tiers for playable characters. Its S tier includes the three named variants below; they are examples from a longer S-tier group, not a definitive top three in order. Pocket Gamer’s tier list.

The cited summary does not provide enough current kit detail to give these three cards skill-by-skill recommendations. Treat the placements as a starting point, then check the card’s current in-game skills and fit with your own team before investing resources.
What “every character” means in this tier list
For Phantom Parade, a useful ranking covers playable units or cards within a specified version and server—not every character in the Jujutsu Kaisen story. A single character can have several playable cards with different kits and tier placements. The September 2026 Gacha Go tier list, for example, explicitly treats variants as separate cards and claims a scope of 96 playable cards. That is the guide’s own count, not an official roster total.
#1 Best Overall
- A Good Smile Company import
- From the popular anime series
- Measures approximately 6.9” tall
- Be sure to add her to your collection
The official Sumzap game site identifies Phantom Parade as a free-to-play RPG for iOS and Android featuring familiar series characters alongside characters created for the game. It does not publish an official character tier list. The rankings discussed here are third-party judgments.
How to decide which characters to build
Compare the exact card, not just the name
Check the bracketed card title as well as the character’s name. Gacha Go’s list shows why: it includes four Gojo cards across four different tiers. A high placement for one Gojo variant does not establish that another Gojo card is equally strong.
Rank #2
- A Good Smile Company import
- From the popular anime Jujutsu Kaisen
- Features Megumi Fushiguro in a strong standing pose
- Measures approximately 6.9” tall
Match role and element to the team
JJKppDB, an unofficial fan-made database, organizes units by elements—Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow—and roles such as attacker, support, debuffer, and defender. Those are useful comparison axes: an account may need a specific job or element more than another generally high-ranked attacker. A global tier alone cannot capture that team-specific value. See the JJKppDB database and ranking tools.

Use a tier placement as a broad editorial signal, not an account-independent build order. Consider the card’s role, element, current skills, the other units you have, and the content you are trying to clear. The sources do not establish one universally best team or a measured performance order based on win rates, damage data, or usage share.
Rank #3
- A Good Smile Company import
- From the popular anime series
- Measures approximately 6.7” tall

How other September and July 2026 lists differ
Tier labels and roster counts vary by publisher and date, so the lists below are comparisons of editorial approaches, not a combined ranking. Do not convert their tiers directly into Pocket Gamer’s S/A/B/C scale.
| Guide | Date and scale | Useful context |
|---|---|---|
| Pocket Gamer | Updated September 2, 2026; version 3.6.2; S/A/B/C | Its S-tier examples include [Savor the Melt] Satoru Gojo, [Heaven-Piercing Strike] Yuji Itadori, and [The Golden Age of Cursed Techniques] Noritoshi Kamo. Source. |
| Gacha Go | September 2026; headline claims 96 cards | Its visible S-tier examples include Kasumi Miwa (Zanshin), Masamichi Yaga (Cursed Corpse Battle), and Kasumi Miwa (Sprinting). Its September changelog moves Noritoshi Kamo (The Golden Age of Jujutsu) from A to S, Kento Nanami (Silent Suppression) from B to A, Toge Inumaki (Cursed Power of Words) from C to B, and two Nobara variants from C to B. These are that guide’s changes, not official balance notes. Source. |
| Mobi.gg | Updated July 28, 2026; S+/S/A/B/C | Uses role labels such as damage, support, and tank, and describes the roster as around fifty characters. Its earlier date and different roster framing make it more useful for comparison than as the freshest snapshot. Source. |
Why rankings change—and how to read them
New cards, game updates, and changes in a guide’s criteria can alter placements. The July Mobi.gg list predates the September lists, while Gacha Go’s own changelog documents several tier edits. A tier list is therefore time-sensitive advice rather than a fixed property of a character.
Rank #4
- A Good Smile Company import
- From the popular anime Jujutsu Kaisen
- An interchangeable head part to display him without his mask is included
- Measures approximately 7.3” tall
- Be sure to add him to your collection
- Check the date and version: Pocket Gamer labels its list version 3.6.2 and gives an update date of September 2, 2026.
- Keep each guide’s scope intact: card counts and descriptions such as “characters” are not interchangeable across publishers, dates, or servers.
- Separate opinion from game facts: a tier is a publisher’s judgment. The reviewed guides do not provide a shared, measured performance dataset.
- Use fan tools with attribution: JJKppDB describes itself as fan-made; it can help compare role and element, but it is not an official source.
For a current build decision, start with the exact variant and its place in a dated list, then check its role, element, skills, and fit with your available roster. Revisit the ranking after substantial updates or when the guide changes its version.
