Specials reference
The table above summarizes the Specials categories in Anime Fighting Simulator — Stands, Grimoires and other Specials — with their tier and notes. Specials are bought or rolled with Chikara Shards and represent the highest damage ceiling in the game. The strongest options are tied to the tournament shop and higher-tier rolls.
How to obtain Specials
Specials come from a few sources: the Store offers (refreshed daily), gacha rolls with Chikara, the tournament shop, and the Fighting Pass. Because the best ones require competitive points and steady Chikara income, an efficient farming loop is the foundation for unlocking them. Save toward a single top option rather than spreading thin.
Specials versus Fruits
Early and mid game, an accessible Fruit is the most efficient damage. At endgame, Stands and Grimoires out-damage even S-tier Fruits, so they become the priority once you can reach the tournament shop. For rankings, see the Specials tier list; for the right moment to transition, see the progression roadmap. Pair your Special with a multiplier Champion and train its scaling stat to maximize damage in boss fights.
