anime story 2 all units: Step-by-Step Progression Guide

This Anime Story 2 unit guide focuses on the most useful progression targets and the routes required to obtain them. Units are distributed across banners, tower floors, secret bosses, raids, and evolution quests, so a single summoning strategy will not cover every important character.

The best approach is to build a reliable beginner team first, then target units that unlock stronger modes. Acu works well as an early damage dealer, while Ruki provides a useful tank foundation. From there, progress toward units such as Asta, Yuno, Julius, Guts, and Broly according to your available team elements and resources.

Video Highlights:

• Asta’s banner route and sword evolution requirement
• Yuno’s Nature Tower floor 500 acquisition chance
• Julius’s secret boss location in Titan City
• Guts’s Eclipse raid and God Sword evolution materials

Each target has a different acquisition pattern. Banner units depend on summons and featured rates, while tower, boss, and raid units require repeatable combat farming. Evolution materials also create additional progression gates, so obtaining the base unit is not always the final objective.

The following routes summarize the practical order and known requirements. Rates can make shiny versions significantly more time-consuming to obtain, so treat shiny farming as an optional upgrade after securing a usable copy.

Asta is especially valuable as a progression project because the sword quest connects multiple unit goals. Yuno requires a demanding Nature Tower push, while Julius is easier to access mechanically but has a low normal drop rate. Completing both routes before focusing heavily on Asta’s evolution can reduce repeated backtracking.

Guts is a longer-term raid target. The Eclipse raid is difficult enough to require a decent team, and the evolution path uses two God Swords purchased for 10,000 Eclipse Tokens. Broly is more accessible by comparison because the unit is banner-based and does not require evolution.

Unit selection should follow the mode you are clearing. Story stages favor consistent damage and a dependable tank. Nature Tower demands elemental planning, while raids place more pressure on survivability and sustained damage. A unit that looks strong in one mode may be less comfortable elsewhere.

Elemental matchups are also important. The current reference guide lists the following relationships:

For tower content, prioritize element coverage and defensive stability. A Nature team is a natural starting point for the Nature Tower route, with units such as Broly or other Nature-element options helping maintain matchup advantages. Avoid relying on one damage type if the stage’s enemy element consistently reduces your output.

For raids, survivability becomes more important. Guts can be a valuable target, but the Eclipse route should be attempted only after your current roster can clear difficult content consistently. Use the raid to farm both unit progress and Eclipse Tokens, rather than treating each run as a single-purpose drop attempt.

For general progression, Broly stands out as a flexible damage option because the unit can be used without an evolution requirement. Shiny versions are desirable because the reference material describes them as having higher damage, but normal copies can still help bridge a roster gap.

Efficient farming depends on matching the unit to the activity. Story stages can provide a repeatable way to gather account resources, while Infinite Mode is recommended for trait reroll farming. Gold routes should be selected based on the highest stage your current team can clear consistently.

The referenced progression recommendations include Acu for World 2 Act 1 gem farming, Aura Farmer for World 9 Act 3, and Slime (Demon) for World 10 Act 1. For gold, use Acu on the highest story stage you can clear quickly, then consider Farmer on 9-3 Nightmare, Master on 9-7 Nightmare, or Slime (Demon) on 10-1 Nightmare when those stages are available.

A resource plan should separate short-term and long-term goals:

• Short-term: Improve Acu, secure Ruki, and clear as much story content as possible.
• Mid-term: Build an elemental team for Nature Tower and begin the Yuno route.
• Long-term: Farm Julius, Guts, God Swords, and shiny upgrades.
• Flexible target: Summon Broly when the banner gives your roster a meaningful damage increase.

Traits and relics can improve farming efficiency, but they should not delay basic roster development. The referenced guide recommends Monarch as a broadly useful trait, with Deadeye or Ethereal as alternatives for damage dealers and Solar for tanks. It also recommends Candy Cane or the Baseball Bat Relic for farming loadouts.

The goal of an Anime Story 2 roster is not simply to collect units. A useful collection should cover damage, tanking, elemental matchups, story farming, tower pushing, and raid access. Review the milestones below before moving to the next farming target.

The Anime Story 2 tier list and team guide provides additional rankings for update 2.25, including role-based recommendations, elemental notes, team variants, and farming routes. Use it as a secondary reference when comparing alternatives that are not covered in this unit-focused progression path.
