Pepput is one of the strongest Mythic units in Anime Expeditions tier list. This guide covers how to get and evolve it, the best build to run, and whether it deserves a spot on your roster.
What Is Pepput in Anime Expeditions?
Pepput is a Mythic unit whose design draws from Gowther in The Seven Deadly Sins, down to a kit built around mind control and an artificial, doll-like body.
| Rarity | Mythic |
| Element | Light |
| Archetype | Psychic |
| Role | Support / team-wide damage amplifier (not a raw DPS unit) |
| Placement limit | 2 copies |
Anime Expeditions Pepput Abilities
| Ability | Effect |
|---|---|
| Marionette's Gaze (passive) | Every 15 seconds, marks the strongest unmarked enemy in range, giving it 20% increased incoming damage for 15 seconds. |
| Puppet Creation (passive) | When a marked enemy dies, summons a Doll with 150% of Pepput's current damage as health. Only one Doll exists at a time. |
| Complete Control (evolved active, Upgrade 8) | Rewinds every enemy in range by 2 seconds, on a 30-second cooldown. |
- Marionette's Gaze (passive): every 15 seconds, marks the strongest unmarked enemy in range, giving it 20% increased incoming damage for 15 seconds.
- Puppet Creation (passive): when a marked enemy dies, summons a Doll with 150% of Pepput's current damage as health. Only one Doll exists at a time.
- Complete Control (evolved active, unlocks at Upgrade 8): rewinds every enemy in range by 2 seconds, on a 30-second cooldown.
Pepput released alongside the game's July 2026 launch, and its Psychic archetype currently has few dedicated stat buffers in Anime Expeditions, so its value leans almost entirely on its own kit and equipment. Since only two copies can be placed, investment is meant to concentrate on one or two units rather than spread across a full team.
How to Get Pepput in Anime Expeditions?
- Banners: Standard Banner and Mini Banner
- Pull rate: 0.5%
- Pity: Guaranteed by 400 Mythic pulls on either banner
- Cost: 400 Gems per 10-pull
- Availability: Permanent, not limited or event-exclusive
Because pity guarantees Pepput by 400 pulls, it's realistically reachable for free-to-play accounts willing to grind toward that number, even without an early lucky pull. And since it's permanent rather than tied to a limited banner, there's no pressure to pull before it disappears.
Since gems for extra summons cost real currency, some players choose to Buy Robux directly rather than farm in-game gold for pulls.
How to Evolve Pepput in Anime Expeditions?
The Puppet Heart drops from "A Puppet's Heart," a 15-wave trial ending in a boss fight, located in Fairy King Forest. Colored sprites come from Regular, Daily, and Weekly Challenges, or can be crafted by combining five gray sprites into one colored sprite.
Evolution materials:
| Material | Amount |
|---|---|
| Puppet Heart | 1x |
| Pink Sprite | 20x |
| Purple Sprite | 20x |
| Rainbow Sprite | 1x |
| Gold | 5,000 |
This material list matches the standard evolution template most non-Secret Mythics use. Only a handful of units, like Shadow, ask for more (three Rainbow Sprites and 10,000 Gold), so Pepput's evolution cost is fairly average for the rarity. Evolving unlocks Complete Control, brings a real jump in damage and utility, and is what allows Pepput to equip unit-specific gear.
Best Pepput Build: Traits, Equipment & Team
This is the part that actually determines how much value Pepput adds to your account, so it's worth getting the right Pepput build before you sink materials in.
Best Traits for Pepput
| Trait | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Primordial | Top pick for most players. +20% range extends mark coverage and keeps Doll uptime consistent. |
| Unbound | Better if you want Dolls that scale harder off Pepput's own damage. |
| Optics / Draconic / Forsaken | Solid secondary options if the two above aren't available. |
Range matters more for Pepput than for most units, since Marionette's Gaze can only mark enemies inside that radius. A wider radius means more targets cycling through the 20% debuff, and a better chance a marked enemy dies close enough to spawn a Doll.

Best Equipment for Pepput
| Equipment | Details |
|---|---|
| Calamity's Eye (Secret rarity) | Earned from the Fairy King Forest Mastery stage, or crafted at the Armory Forge. Boosts damage and range. Raises Doll health to 200% of current damage, up from the base 150%. |
Farming Mastery stages for gear takes time, and some players skip the wait by buying Anime Expeditions items directly instead.
Best Team Composition for Pepput
Pepput is a support unit, so it lives or dies by the team around it. The 20% mark bonus is wasted on a weak roster and multiplied by a strong one, which makes team-building the biggest lever for getting real value out of the unit.
Core Team Pairings
| Unit | Role | Why It Pairs With Pepput |
|---|---|---|
| Cursed Student (Yuta) | Main DPS | Yuta's Cursed Mimicry copies 100% of its own damage plus 40% of its closest ally's damage. Pepput's mark boosts everything Yuta hits, including the copied damage. |
| Salmon Sorcerer | Crowd control | Slows enemies inside Pepput's range longer, which means more marks land and more Dolls spawn. |
| Ramen Guy | Economy | Keeps Yen flowing so you can afford Pepput's placement plus upgrades on the DPS carry. |
Is Pepput Worth It in Anime Expeditions?
Current tier lists group Pepput alongside other S-tier picks like Shadow (Divine), 8th Sword (Berserk), Crimson (Brother), and Cursed Student (True Love). Those other units lean toward raw personal damage, while Pepput's value comes from lifting the whole team's output instead.
Strengths:
- Unanimous S-tier ranking across major tier lists
- 20% team-wide damage boost on the highest-priority target
- Durable Doll summon plus a post-evolution rewind
- Strong performance in raids and boss fights
Weaknesses:
- Needs evolution and the right trait or equipment to reach full value
- Limited to one Doll and two placed copies at a time
- Contributes little personal damage compared to top single-target DPS units
Should Beginners Invest in Pepput?
Yes, if it's an early pull. Pepput carries value through Story Hard, Raids, and into Expeditions as a support unit that boosts everything around it, which matters more early on than raw single-target damage.
Pepput for Mid and Endgame Players
Pepput stays relevant well past the early game. It remains a fixture in high-level teams, especially alongside Yuta or another strong carry, and is worth full Ascension, its best trait, and Calamity's Eye once materials allow.
How to Use Pepput Effectively
Best Game Modes for Pepput
- Raids and boss fights: the 20% mark applies to a single high-HP target for the whole encounter.
- Expeditions: the rewind active buys repeated windows of extra damage, which matters more here than in standard Story stages where enemies die quickly anyway.
Both modes unlock later (Expeditions around account level 20, Raids around level 25), so evolve your core team before then.
Pepput Gameplay Tips
- Place Pepput near the enemy spawn or a high-traffic path so it marks targets early and consistently.
- Pair it with Yuta or another strong carry to make the mark bonus count.
- Prioritize range through traits and equipment so more enemies stay inside its mark zone.
- Evolve it as soon as materials allow. Complete Control is a real power spike, not a minor bonus.
