How to Evolve Units in Anime Origins

Players write this as 'evo' — 'madara evo', 'toji evo', 'bulma evo' — and use the source character name, while this site registers every unit under a shortened name of its own. The pairs below let a search term and a unit on this site be matched up. Each form is cross-checked community data from public tier lists rather than an official roster, and a balance patch can move it, so confirm your own unit before spending materials.

Secrets: Madara → Madaro (Edo Tensei), also listed as Edo Madaro. Alucard → Valcrad (Unleashed). Yuta / Okkotsu → Cursed Lover (Pure Love).

Mythics with a documented evolved form: Ban → Bon (Purgatory); Bulma → Bluma (Data Analyst); Stark / Starrk → Starku (Primordial); Toji / Fushiguro → Tojei (Sorcerer Killer); Naruto → Noroto (Linked); Vegeta → Vegita (Super); Gojo / Satoru Gojo → Goju (Honored One); Yuto → Yoto (Calamity); Esdeath → Aneko (Queen); Igris → Igritto (Commander); Ichigo → Itsugo (Dangai); Kenpachi → Konpatchi (Unleashed); Zeldris → Zeldo (Piety); Gyutaro → Gyutari (Upper Moon); Meliodas → Melio (Assault); Goku → Goki (Super).

Three of those entries — Gojo / Goju, Yuto / Yoto and Goku / Goki — sit at source-conflict level in this site's registry, meaning the public lists disagree about them, so even the name match is less settled than the rest. The registry entries with no form at all are not proof that a unit can never evolve; a newer unit may simply have no published form yet. Requirements, per-unit counts and drop rates are absent from public tables, so the evolution panel on the unit you own is the only authority for the recipe you will actually pay.

In Anime Origins, Evolution represents a major structural upgrade for eligible units. When an eligible base unit undergoes evolution, its base attack damage, range, and attack speed (SPA) scale upward, and its character model receives an updated appearance along with a dedicated form suffix (such as Edo Tensei, Unleashed, Pure Love, Purgatory, or Data Analyst).

More importantly, evolution frequently unlocks or transforms active and passive skills. For example, community guides report that Madaro gains the Heaven Splitter burst nuke with extended range and Susanoo combat buffs; Valcrad gains the Coffin Trap boss-stalling skill and critical scaling; and Cursed Lover unlocks the flexible Copy mechanic to store multiple active abilities from other units.

Because evolution introduces new mechanics, it must be evaluated based on the specific job the evolved form performs for your team. An evolved unit is not simply a higher stat number; it is often the core puzzle piece that unlocks higher-difficulty modes.

Public launch data and cross-checked community references report evolution forms for several key roster units:

Secret Units: Madaro evolves into Madaro (Edo Tensei); Valcrad evolves into Valcrad (Unleashed); and Cursed Lover evolves into Cursed Lover (Pure Love). Note: players should be careful not to confuse Anime Origins' Cursed Lover (Pure Love) with similarly named characters in other Roblox games.

Mythic Units: Launch guides report evolved forms for Bon (Purgatory), Bluma (Data Analyst), Starku (Primordial), Tojei (Sorcerer Killer), Noroto (Linked), Vegita (Super), Goju (Honored One), Aneko (Queen), Igritto (Commander), Itsugo (Dangai), Konpatchi (Unleashed), Zeldo (Piety), Gyutari (Upper Moon), Melio (Assault), and Goki (Super).

Watchlist Units: Units such as Shinoru / Shinaru (Butterfly Dance) or Roxi / Oxi have unconfirmed evolution paths in current public material. We hold these units as unconfirmed until verified directly in the live game panel. Do not assume all listed Mythics have active evolution recipes in the current game build.

Community gameplay guides report two broad categories of materials required for evolution: generic Remnants and unit-specific stage drops.

Generic Remnants: Remnants are structured into four color-coded tiers — Azure Remnant, Violet Remnant, Radiant Remnant, and Prismatic Remnant. These are reported from Daily Challenges and promotional code rewards; the Remnant bundle most guides cite for this (ChallengesFixed) is now expired-reported, so treat its counts as last-reported values. Prismatic Remnants represent the highest rarity tier and are typically required for top-tier Secret and high-end Mythic evolutions.

Unit-Specific Drops: Specific progression items and tokens are reported from Legend Stages (high-difficulty versions of Story maps unlocked after completing normal progression), cooperative Raids (such as Fairy Forest and Entertainment District Raid shops), and timed Rift portals (like Shibuya Metro). In addition, evolving requires a base Gold / Yen fee.

Because developers have not published an official drop rate percentage table for Legend stages or Raids, any claim promising guaranteed drop chances on a specific run is speculative. Always rely on completed match results.

Because Remnants and high-tier materials are constrained in early progression, allocating them in the right order prevents bottlenecks. Community guides recommend following a role-based priority order:

Tier 0 (Consensus Endgame Carries): Prioritize Madaro (Edo Tensei) for heavy boss burst; Valcrad (Unleashed) for Coffin Trap boss control; and Cursed Lover (Pure Love) for versatile multi-skill copying. These three Secret carries retain high agreement across launch tier lists.

Tier 1 (Core Economy and Team Buffs): Next, prioritize Bluma (Data Analyst) to unlock the Training Data wave income engine for Infinite mode and long raids; Bon (Purgatory) for team food aura buffs (Damage, Range, Cooldown); and Goju (Honored One) for projectile defense and area slowing.

Tier 2 (Secondary Damage & Specialized Roles): Units like Starku (Primordial) and Tojei (Sorcerer Killer) provide single-target burst for Story and boss encounters, while Itsoda provides dependable budget Hill coverage. Hold materials rather than investing in transitional units that will be replaced once your core roster expands.

Public trackers differ on several key item amounts. For instance, code trackers record conflicting counts for the ChallengesFixed code (some list 10 Azure, 5 Violet, 2 Radiant, 1 Prismatic, while others list 10 of each lower tier). This site records the discrepancy rather than guessing a single unverified account total.

Similarly, exact per-unit Remnant formulas are intentionally not documented in universal public tables. Always open your owned unit's live in-game evolution interface to inspect the exact requirements before dedicating time to farming. When new game patches launch, verify the recipe panel to ensure requirement changes have not occurred.
