Do not skip a farm unit

Units FAQ

What is the best unit for beginners in Anime Adventures?
Elf Mage (Aura) is the safest early carry: a hill hybrid that combines strong DPS with team support and fits almost any composition. Fuji is a reliable all-rounder for story and raids, and Calm Killer offers fast, cheap attacks while your roster is small.
How do you get units in Anime Adventures?
Units are summoned with Gems, which you earn by beating Story and Infinite modes — codes have historically granted bonus Gems too. Save your Gems for banners featuring S and A tier units rather than spreading them thin.
What is a farm unit in Anime Adventures?
Farm units generate extra Yen during a run, funding your upgrades — Bulby and C.E.O. are the classic examples. A Golden trait on a farm unit boosts its Yen production by 20%, which is why Golden is chased almost exclusively for farmers.
