Shadow (Divine)	Has the Shadow Realm and Divine Spirit ability. Shadow Realm transforms the map and applies a 25% damage buff to all magical units. Divine Spirit can stun this unit, but it will summon a minion that doesn’t despawn and deals the same damage. The Winged Spirit ability can help summon winged minions that deal decent damage every 5 seconds.
8th Sword (Berserker)	Enemies within range will take 5% of this unit’s current damage every 1 second. When this unit is stunned, it does a follow-up attack. After 25 takedowns, it enters Berserk mode, increasing damage, SPA, and range.

The Secret units in Anime Expeditions are some of the rarest characters and sit at the top of the game’s meta. Unlocking them can take you hours of grinding, as all are only obtained through evolution in Anime Expeditions. These units can provide incredible damage, utility, and unique mechanics.

Both the Secret units are considered some of the strongest, with Shadow regarded as one of the best in crowd control situations and dealing a ton of damage. Whereas the 8th Sword offers some of the highest DPS among other units in the game for the late-game grind.

Since these are some of the rarest units you can get from the banner, you will surely need a ton of gems, and these can be obtained for free from the active Anime Expeditions codes.

The Toy Maker stands out in this category thanks to its unique summon-based gameplay of creating toys to block and deal damage. While the Crimson character is a great DPS unit, the True Saint is a more beginner-friendly character. Combined with the right equipment in Anime Expeditions, you can destroy any gamemode.
