An Anime Stars squad is five documented layers: Hero roles, Champion multipliers, relics, accessories, and rolled passives. Plan each layer from the game's published tables instead of guessing from rarity color alone.
Pick one Damage carry and fund it first — the Secret line (Kaizen, Magata, Rimule, Subuna) is the documented ceiling and each carries an Evolves tag, while Hawk is the roster's only Tank. Add Supports (NaoFume, Gojiro, Jiro, Roben, Garuo, Sabuha) whose passives and gear cover what the carry lacks. Then stack the multiplier layers the official wiki publishes: Champions (x1.05 → x4.6, up to x14 on the Exclusive banner), a Mythic relic, four accessory slots, and Hero/Champion passives. Rarity decides the ceiling; the gear layers decide whether you reach it.

Banner rates: Rare 72.2% · Epic 22% · Legendary 5% · Mythic 0.7% · Secret 0.07%, with Mythic guaranteed by summon 150 and Secret by summon 500 on all three hero banners. Sun Jin Wu is the roster's Exclusive; Subuna's summon pity was lowered to 12K in Update 3.5.
Champions multiply your squad's output rather than fighting on the field themselves.
| Champion | Rarity | Multiplier | Chance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Namy | Common | ×1.05 | 47.6% |
| Jimbe | Uncommon | ×1.25 | 28.6% |
| Usoup | Rare | ×1.5 | 14.3% |
| Senjy | Epic | ×1.8 | 7.14% |
| Shankz | Legendary | ×2.2 | 2.38% |
| Zorru | Mythic | ×2.6 | 0.059% |
| LufyGear5 | Secret | ×4.6 | 0.0036% |
Pity: Legendary by summon 150, Mythic by summon 2000. Each island has its own champion pool.
| Champion | Multiplier | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| Chozo | ×1 | 0.85% |
| Levy | ×1 | 2.728% |
| Goke Black | ×14 | 15% |
| Zanku | ×1 | 6.15% |
| Qyn Shi | ×2 | 6.42% |
1 pull = 350 Diamonds, 5 = 1.6K, 10 = 3K. Goke Black's x14 is the largest multiplier documented in the game.
Relics cap at level 80 and stack with accessories, auras, and passives — the six documented Mythic relics set the ceiling.
+12% Power, +14% Attack, +6% Attack Speed
+6% Critical Chance, +34% Critical Damage
+12% Power, +12% Attack, +24% Critical Damage
+22% Skill Damage, +28% Ultimate Damage
+14% Attack, +16% Skill Damage, +20% Ultimate Damage
+14% Skill Damage, +18% Ultimate Damage
Accessory slots (Head, Torso, Arm, Leg) take fixed main stats plus rolls from a shared pool — Damage carries want Critical Chance, Critical Damage, and Skill/Ultimate Damage; farming squads want Power and Luck, per the official wiki's own FAQ. Weapon auras roll from Violet Pulse (40%) to Crimson Dominion (+95% Damage, 0.02%).
Pull the banner that matches your missing Secret or Mythic: the Kaizen banner carries Vilgamesh (Mythic, 0.7%) and Gojiro (Legendary, 5%) as consolation tiers, so every pull toward Kaizen also builds the bench. Stop at documented pity — Mythic by 150, Secret by 500.
Fill remaining slots from the six Support Heroes and Hawk the Tank. Their value is coverage: the official wiki's guide recommends Critical Chance and Crit Damage accessories on Damage Heroes, Power and Luck on farming Heroes — gear the role, not the rarity.
Summon Skylands champions at 50 Coins until the x1.8–x2.2 band (Senjy, Shankz), banking on Legendary-by-150 pity; keep Diamonds for the Exclusive banner where Goke Black (x14, 15%) and Qyn Shi (x2, 6.42%, guaranteed by 100) are the documented targets.
Hero Passives unlock at 150B Coins and roll up to Forbidden Arts/Limitless (0.045% each); Champion Passives roll +3–15% stat lines. For party modes, the +50% Damage / +10% Drops Party Bonus per extra player makes role coverage across four real players the fifth layer.
The documented ceiling is a Secret Damage carry — Kaizen, Magata, Rimule, or Subuna (0.07% banner rate, Secret pity by summon 500) — with Support Heroes layered behind it and the highest Champion multiplier you have rolled. For a new account, the realistic core is Hawk the Tank plus Huvia and the Epic Supports, upgraded banner by banner as Mythics land.
Champions are summon companions, not field fighters: Skylands' champion summon costs 50 Coins and rolls Namy (x1.05, 47.6%) through LufyGear5 (x4.6, 0.0036%), with Legendary guaranteed by summon 150 and Mythic by 2000. The Exclusive banner (Diamonds) adds Goke Black at x14. Dragon Wishes can raise your champion slots to 4 and rolls to 4.
From the six documented Mythic relics: Innate Domain (+22% Skill, +28% Ultimate Damage) and Zenith Shell (+14% Skill, +18% Ultimate) suit a skill-cycling carry; Celestial Shell (+12% Power, +12% Attack, +24% Crit Damage) suits a critical-hit build. Craftable Legendary shells from Shadow City are the budget path.
They are documented attributes of every Hero — Water or Fire element, Sword or Glove weapon — and weapon banners (Swords, Gauntlets) roll gear that matches them, so plan the weapon grind around the squad you keep. The official wiki does not publish a damage-multiplier table by element, so this planner does not claim one.
Party content (Dragon Raid, Academy Defense, Titan Defense, the Dungeon) pays the documented Party Bonus — +50% Damage and +10% Drops per extra player — so squad planning there is about covering roles across the team. Solo trials (Shinobi, Reaper, Mage) reward one deep, well-geared carry instead.
