Debris: Toughness Fragment

A high school girl who lives in Tokyo.\n\nShe is an excellent student, with grades that put her at top of\nher class and earn the trust of her teachers. She spends her days\nlaughing with her friends; her life the very picture of those\ncarefree high school years.\n\nThe most important thing to her is her father—a man whose\nspirit has been badly broken. She would face any hardship\nand do anything to stay with him. Anything.

Characters/stories that genuinely upset me.

Obviously this is my opinion based on my expertise and personal tastes in writing. This list is not counting the collab characters. If you want any explanations of why I put a character somewhere, feel free to come ask me in the NieR Reincarnation Discord.

I write fanfiction. Let's rate the characters and their stories.

Purely a preference Tier list, with no correlation to character/costume strengths or whatever. I also like men and monsters.Characters in the same Tier are also ranked from left to right, with the most left being the highest in the Tier, and the most right is the lowest. I also added comments only for Levania Tier, SSS Tier, or if I had to say something about the costume.

Based Tierlist

Tierlist on how each character would top their sub, what did you expect really?

How they'd top their sub

We DO have some disclaiming over a few, after all :v
