Anime Final Strike just launched, and it’s normal to feel overwhelmed when starting out. This guide will break down everything a beginner needs to know to get going smoothly. From progressing through story mode to evolving your units and using key resources, this will simplify your early game and set you up for success.
1. Getting Started: Complete the Story Mode
Your first priority should be completing the story mode. If you find it tough to beat some stages, consider teaming up with friends or other players. Don’t hesitate to use the resources you get wisely—don’t spend your summons carelessly on banners unless there’s a strong mythic available.
Recommended Mythic Units:
- Ice Admiral — Great for stunning enemies and essential for the meta.
- Yuneco — Best money maker, critical for gaining resources quickly.
- Akaza & Soge King — Strong mythics that fit well into many team comps.
- Ichigo — Once evolved, becomes one of the strongest secret units in the game.

2. Evolving Your Mythics
After some story mode progress, you’ll likely have one or two mythics. Evolving your mythics is a huge power boost—it’s like going from level 50 to 150 instantly. Evolved units not only deal more damage but also improve other stats.
For example, evolving a money maker like Umo increases how much money she generates each wave. Evolving requires special materials, but don’t worry—you’ll get there by completing NPC missions and gathering crystals.
3. Using NPCs and Claiming Rewards
NPCs are a vital part of your progression. As you level your units, you’ll earn crystals and coins that you can claim anytime. Keep an eye on daily missions and spins to earn mythical crystals, trade crystals, and other useful items.
You can convert common crystals into mythical crystals at the crafting NPC Senku. Use these to craft rare items needed for evolution and upgrades, such as hashur, vess, sage scrolls, and love guns.
4. Trade, Stats, and Rerolls
When evolving units, you’ll face three options: trade crystals, stat rerolls, and the portal to evolve.
- Trade Crystals: Choose boosts like Wealth (more money for money makers), Frenzy (for slow or bleed units), or Emperor (for high-damage secret units like Ichigo). Assign these strategically based on your unit’s role.
- Stat Rerolls: You can reroll your unit’s stats to improve damage, health, or other attributes. Use “stat skip” to automatically ignore lower rolls and aim for double S or triple S ratings. Double S is easier to get and will upgrade to triple S after evolving, so focus on getting double S early.
