All Unit Evolutions in Anime Expeditions

Evolution is one of the most important progression systems in Anime Expeditions. While summoning stronger Units helps you clear difficult stages, evolving them unlocks even more power by improving their stats and granting brand-new passive abilities. However, not every character can evolve. Only a select group of units currently have evolved forms, and each one requires a specific combination of Sprites, Gold, and unique evolution materials.

Here’s every evolution available in Anime Expeditions, along with the resources needed and the passive abilities you unlock.

You can obtain most evolution materials in Anime Expeditions by regularly completing Daily and Weekly Challenges. It’s also worth clearing Raids, Trials, and Story Mode whenever possible, as these game modes reward many of the items needed for unit evolution. If you’re not actively playing, you can leave your character in the AFK Chamber to passively earn certain resources over time. Here are all the relevant details concerning Unit Evolutions in Anime Expeditions:

Evolving Units is one of the best ways to increase your overall damage and make your team more effective in tougher game modes. Besides improving a unit’s base stats, evolution also unlocks exclusive passive abilities that can add crowd control, damage-over-time effects, buffs, or entirely new attack mechanics. If you’re planning to take on late-game Story stages, Raids, or other challenging content, evolving your strongest units should be one of your top priorities.
