Tamari B
Wielder: Susamaru · 3 moves · Demon path only
Tamari is currently considered one of the weaker arts for solo play: more suitable for PvE than PvP, and outperformed in both by stronger options. Its one real niche is a party built around Susamaru's Tamari Regen. If you roll it outside that setup, use the ARTRESET code or spins to reroll.
Where this tier comes from: C during the September snapshot, B after later passes — either way it sits at the bottom of the keep list for most players.
How to get Tamari in Slayers 2
Rolling Tamari is easy; keeping it is the decision: convert on the demon path, ring the Biwa Bell, choose "Give me your power" and accept the roll. The economy around it is simple — codes and level rewards supply free spins (M1LL1ON alone gives 50), each new roll replaces your current art rather than adding to it, and community reports describe rolls that return nothing whatsoever. So check the arts comparison before committing spins. Keep it only while you build toward the setup that unlocks its value, and reroll when the spins allow.

Keep Tamari or reroll?
Tier B means most demons reroll it — unless your build specifically unlocks what Tamari does best. Spend the ARTRESET code first (it is free), then spins if you must. Either way, know your target before the next spin: Shockwave for melee PvP, Ice for all-round control, Blood Sickles for ranged group play — the roll replaces whatever you hold.
Clans that pair well with Tamari
Susamaru
Rare · Tier CTamari demons, especially in a party with another Susamaru or Yahaba. Outside Tamari, reroll.
Yahaba
Rare · Tier CArrow demons, especially in a party with another Yahaba or Susamaru — the party buff is the only reason it stays on the board.
Kamado
Supreme · Tier SThe safest all-round pick for almost any build. Demons get the most from it: Sun Immunity frees a gear slot and Regen Adrenal only works on the demon path. V0.2 removed Headbutt's guard break, but the stat package still leads.
Other blood demon arts
Tamari against the field
Tamari is the cautionary tale of the art pool: fun projectiles, lowest launch damage, dodgeable everything. Its Susamaru party niche is real but narrow — and it is the art most players point to when explaining why the ARTRESET code exists.
Tamari FAQ
How do I get Tamari in Slayers 2?
It comes from the random art roll after you become a demon: reach the conversion, ring the Biwa Bell, choose "Give me your power" and take the roll. Free spins come from codes (M1LL1ON gives 50) and level rewards. Rolling a new art replaces your current one.

How Tamari fits the demon meta
A demon's combat power stacks three layers: the blood demon art, the clan passives, and a fighting style (Soryu at level 65). Tamari occupies the middle layer — it fills your skill bar, while the clan multiplies the damage and the fighting style covers the mobility gaps. That stacking is why single-layer tier lists mislead: a Tier B art with the right clan and Soryu can outperform a Tier A art played naked. The tier list page compares whole stacks, and the demon-or-slayer guide weighs the art lottery against the slayer path before you convert.
Playing Tamari well
Tamari is honest about what it is: ranged poke (Tamari Throw, Six-Arm Volley, Ricochet) with the lowest damage of the launch arts. If you keep it for a Susamaru party build, play the buffer — your value is the party buff stacking, not your own damage. Everyone else: ARTRESET.
Fighting against Tamari
Knowing an art's weaknesses is half of PvP. Against Tamari, the community playbook is: walk forward. Tamari's projectiles are dodgeable on reaction and its damage is the lowest of the launch arts — closing range removes both the damage and the threat.
