Zenless Zone Zero Yanagi build, w-engine, and teams

Zenless Zone Zero's Yanagi is a badass agent and the Deputy Chief of Hollow Special Operations Section 6. Our Yanagi build outlines the best W-engines, drive discs, and team comps for her. Spoiler - it's all anomaly, all the time. She really shines in a triple-anomaly team.

While you're reading up on Yanagi, make sure to grab the new Zenless Zone Zero codes so you can bag yourself another copy of her when she heads up the Zenless Zone Zero banner.

Here's everything in our Zenless Zone Zero Yanagi guide:

What is the best Yanagi build?

What are the best teams for Yanagi in Zenless Zone Zero?

Yanagi is a main DPS, but can easily work alongside other anomaly characters that need field time too, like Jane Doe and Miyabi. She's excellent with Yuzuha as a support, as she's tailored to anomaly teams, or Astra Yao or Nangong Yu for buffs. We really recommend Yanagi in a double or triple anomaly agent team, and any anomaly damage dealers will work.

What are the best W-engines for Yanagi?

The best W-engine for Yanagi is her limited S-rank, Timeweaver. This is tailored to her kit and improves her performance the most. You can safely use Weeping Gemini or Electro Lip Gloss (A-rank options) at higher overclock levels, or the standard S-rank, Fusion Compiler.

• Timeweaver - limited S-rank
• Fusion Compiler - standard S-rank
• Weeping Gemini - A-rank
• Electro Lip Gloss - A-rank

What are the best disk drives for Yanagi?

Yanagi is a little limited when it comes to disk drives if you want the best performance out of her. The best set by far is a four-piece set of Chaos Jazz, paired with a two-piece set of Freedom Blues. You can also use Thunder Metal in a pinch.

These are the best disk drive sets for Yanagi:

• Chaos Jazz - four-piece set
• Freedom Blues - two-piece set
• Thunder Metal - two-piece set

When picking each piece of equipment, prioritize options with the following stats as main and sub-stat options:

• Anomaly proficiency
• Attack ratio
• PEN ratio

What are Yanagi's priority skills?

You should focus on upgrading Yanagi's core skill and chain attack first, then her basic and special attacks. After that, you can focus on the other skills in her kit.

• Core skill = chain attack > basic attack > special attack

Who are Yanagi's voice actors?

Here are the actors who voice Yanagi in Zenless Zone Zero. Corey Pettit, who provides her English voice, has many roles in anime across the board - and voices Julia in Goddess of Victory: Nikke.

• English - Corey Pettit
• Chinese - Juhuahua
• Japanese - Nazuka Kaori
• Korean - Kwon Da-ye

How do I use Yanagi?

Yanagi's kit revolves around her special Disorder mechanic tied to her EX special attack and ultimate, and it can be tricky to master. She can inflict Disorder on top of other Shock to deal more damage.

She's a combo-heavy character who requires a bit of practice to master, as you need to pay attention to multiple buffs, her two stances, different combos and attack animations, and even character swaps and anomaly management in order to make the most of her abilities. As such, she requires a lot of field time to maximize her rotations.

Yanagi has two stances - Jougen and Kagen - that she can swap between freely using her special attack or EX special attack. The two stances alter her basic attack pattern, while also granting her a different buff.

The bulk of her gameplay revolves around switching stances in order to maximise her electric anomaly buildup and make the most of her self-applied buffs, using her EX special attack and ultimate to trigger Polarity Disorder, and occasionally switching between characters to apply buffs and trigger standard disorder reactions.

That's everything in our ZZZ Yanagi build. While you're here, be sure to check out our Zenless Zone Zero tier list to see how the current Zenless Zone Zero characters rank.
