3 Best Unit to Beat Naruto Boss Rush Anime Last Stand Guide!

The new Naruto Boss Rush in Anime Last Stand newest UPD looks intimidating at first glance. With enemies scaling high and bosses reaching 2.5 trillion HP, many players think it’s impossible without a full squad.

But the truth is, you can clear it using only three units if you understand the mechanics and place your units correctly. This guide will walk you through how to solo it with just Johnny, Ichiko, and Idol.

Recommended Team Setup

For this run, you only need three units:

• Johnny – High DPS and Wormhole ability for teleport control.
• Ichiko – Core damage dealer with strong AoE and mastery scaling.
• Idol – Early game farming and support to generate resources.

Traits & Souls

• Traits like Glorious or Glitch Glorious help, but aren’t required.
• Ichiko benefits from Super Strength Soul.
• Johnny works fine even without a soul, though adding one is recommended.

Step-by-Step Strategy

1. Early Game (Waves 1–15)

• Start by placing Idol in the front to handle enemies and build money.
• Prioritize maxing Idol first before bringing out your main DPS.

2. Mid Game (Waves 15–30)

• After Idol is maxed, place Ichiko slightly behind her to cover a wide circle of the map.
• Sell Johnny if placed early, then re-deploy later once Ichiko is maxed.
• Focus all upgrades on Ichiko to reach max mastery as early as possible.

3. Late Game (Wave 30+)

• Place Johnny at the front and begin upgrading him.
• Johnny’s Wormhole ability is key—this lets you deal with bosses that teleport.
• Use Idol only for resource generation, while Ichiko and Johnny carry the damage.

Boss Mechanics to Watch Out For

• Obito spawns around Wave 20.
• Moa spawns around Wave 35.
• Celestial Being (Final Boss) spawns at Wave 50.

Key Mechanics:

• The final boss does not move until his HP drops to around 50–80%.
• Once below 30–50%, he starts teleporting. These teleports are instant time-skips forward, making him tough to track.
• After multiple teleports, he will disable all abilities, so timing matters.

How to Counter:

• Save Ichiko’s Final Lesson and Johnny’s Wormhole for the final boss.
• Use Wormhole immediately after his second teleport, before he disables abilities.
• This ensures you can keep him in range long enough to finish him off.

Why Wormhole is Essential

Johnny’s Wormhole is one of the most underrated abilities in Anime Last Stand. It can reposition teleporting bosses, making it critical for the Naruto Boss Rush. Without it, bosses will often teleport too far for your team to finish them.

Rewards

Clearing the Naruto Boss Rush rewards Celestial Being and other evolution materials, including Nine Tails Ember and Moroshiki’s Essence, which are required for units like Naruto Baryon Mode and Boruto’s evolution.

So, Focus upgrades on Ichiko first, then Johnny. Time Wormhole carefully; use it before the boss disables abilities. Don’t waste slots on units like Law or Poochie if you’re aiming for a 3-unit clear—they’re useful but not efficient here.

With this strategy, even the hardest Naruto Boss Rush can be cleared with just three units. Once you master the placement and timing, it becomes much easier than it first appears in Anime Last Stands.
