Getting Started with Anime vs Anime

Anime vs Anime is SellWater!’s free Roblox fighter that blends anime roster collecting with real 2D duel modes. This getting-started guide takes you from the first join on place 80007766855741 through tutorial rewards, Rebirth, code redeem, summoning, Training, and smart use of Auto Fight before you touch Ranked. Pair it with the Guides Hub map when you need a sibling topic.

Step 0 — Join the right experience

Open the official listing: Anime vs Anime on Roblox. Confirm the creator group SellWater! and avoid similarly named knockoffs. Servers host about 25 players. Performance varies by device—close heavy background apps on phones before labbing inputs.

Optional: join the community Discord at discord.com/invite/avsa for patch pings, but finish in-game unlocks first so you can redeem codes when drops happen.

Step 1 — Finish the tutorial (free God Pack)

The tutorial teaches movement, attacks, and UI locations. Complete it fully. One of the most important early rewards is a free God Pack—the premium summon tier. Do not rush past prompts; incomplete tutorial flags often block later systems, including the code box.

After the tutorial:

• Note where Summon sits (left side of the HUD in current layouts).
• Locate mode select for Training, 1v1, 2v2, Ranked, Tournament, and Auto Fight.
• Check that Coins / Emeralds / Gems counters are visible so you notice code rewards later.

Step 2 — Complete your first Rebirth

Rebirth is an early progression gate. Players routinely report that code redeem stays locked until tutorial + first Rebirth are done. Treat Rebirth as mandatory onboarding, not an optional prestige vanity. Follow on-screen requirements, claim the milestone, then reopen Summon.

Detailed redeem clicks live on How to Redeem Codes. The live string list is on the Codes Hub.

Step 3 — Redeem codes before heavy grinding

Working November 2026 codes include large God Pack and Emerald gifts (for example SorryForBadUpdate, BetterUpdateTomorrow, SkinsAreHere!, FollowBushidoF, and many Apex / Coin fillers). Priority:

1. God Pack codes
2. Big Emerald codes
3. Multi Apex Pack codes
4. Everything else

Codes are case-sensitive. Paste carefully. This single session can outpace hours of Coin grinding and jump-start your path into the 140+ fighter roster.

Step 4 — Summon with a plan

Open Summon and decide how to spend Apex Packs versus God Packs. Read How to Summon before dumping every pack into the first banner you see. Early targets after October 27 often include Rimuru, Guts, Cid, Escanor, Unohana, Kaneki, Rengoku, and Alucard—community estimates place them high on the Best Fighters page—but a fighter you understand beats an untouched hype pull.

Skim New Roster for the October spotlight list (Unohana, Shinji, Ishida, Alucard, Cid, Kaneki, Yami, Escanor, Uzui, Rengoku, Josuke, David, Rimuru, Guts).

Step 5 — Bind keys once in Training

Enter Training with your best starter. Configure keybinds immediately. As of the October 27 patch, keybinds persist across servers, so a careful setup pays off all night. Use the Controls guide for habits: movement clarity, attack priorities, and not overlapping menu hotkeys.

Drill:

• Walk, dash, and backdash spacing
• Light-to-heavy confirm attempts
• Block and punish reactions against dummy patterns
• Burst or special routes unique to your fighter

Fifteen focused minutes here beats diving straight into Ranked rage queues.

Step 6 — Play manual 1v1 / 2v2 before Ranked

Casual 1v1 teaches neutral. 2v2 teaches chaos and assist timing. Win a handful of each before enabling Ranked. Watch for telegraphable habits—jumping every exchange, mashing on wake-up, ignoring meter.

If you prefer a video overview while you practice, the embedded ultimate-style guide on this page complements the text; still verify UI details in your live client because beta layouts shift.

Step 7 — Understand Auto Fight and bot scaling

Auto Fight is an official mode for automated matches—not a third-party script. It is great for currency filler after you already know a kit. Important: bots get harder every 5 wins after the October patch. Streak farms dry up. Rotate characters, take breaks, or return to Training. For honesty about injectors (we list none unverified), see the Scripts Hub.

Step 8 — Touch Ranked and Tournament deliberately

When confirms are consistent, queue Ranked in short sets. Review each loss: matchup knowledge versus execution. Tournament mode rewards stability—bring a pocket counter from your box. Deeper habits live in Combat and Ranked.

Also respect nerfs: Eraser Hero, Sanji, Kaido, Ace, Rivai, Big Mom, Pickle, Boo, Ice Chief, and Geta took hits. If your tutorial luck landed on a nerfed name, keep them as a pocket while you summon toward healthier picks (Tier List Hub).

Step 9 — Build a weekly loop

• Check Updates and Discord for new codes or balance notes
• Redeem, summon, train, play, then Auto Fight filler
• Track a simple personal note: main, pocket, worst matchup
• Revisit Players Hub when new banners arrive

Common beginner mistakes

• Skipping Rebirth and thinking codes are “broken”
• Spending all God Packs before reading summon priorities
• Rebinding every server (unnecessary after persistence patch)
• Using Auto Fight as the only teacher
• Ignoring UI rework banners and then getting lost in Summon
• Buying fake currency or script junk from random DMs
