Update March 16,: Bad news — all Update 11 codes have now expired. There are currently no active codes in Anime Vanguards. The devs have been quiet since the last bugfix patch. We’re watching the official Discord for new drops and will update this page the moment new codes go live. Bookmark this page so you don’t miss them.
The Chainsaw Man update (Update 11) brought the Level Editor, new units, and a stack of codes that gave out over 100,000 free gems — but those codes have all expired as of mid-. Keep checking back because the devs typically release new codes with every major update.
What Are Anime Vanguards Codes?
Anime Vanguards codes are free promotional strings released by Kitawari, the development studio behind the game. You enter these codes in-game and instantly receive rewards like gems, trait rerolls, memoria shards, and other valuable items. The developers typically release new codes alongside major updates, milestone celebrations, bug compensation, and holiday events.
The rewards from codes are legitimately game-changing. A single code batch can give you enough gems for multiple summon pulls, enough trait rerolls to perfect your best units, and enough memoria shards to power up your lineup significantly. There is zero reason not to redeem every single one.

How to Redeem Codes in Anime Vanguards
The code redemption process was updated recently, so here is exactly how it works now:
- Launch Anime Vanguards on Roblox
- Tap the Profile button on the right side of your screen (teal colored button)
- Click the Codes button on the left side of the Profile menu
- Type or paste your code into the text box exactly as shown — codes are case-sensitive
- Click Redeem Code to claim your rewards
Your rewards will be added to your account instantly. If a code does not work, you will see an “invalid code” or “code expired” message. Double-check that you typed it correctly including capitalization.
Pro tip: Redeem all codes before you start summoning or upgrading. Having all your free gems and rerolls at once lets you make better decisions about which banners to pull and which units to invest.
What Do the Code Rewards Actually Do?
Most code guides just list the rewards without explaining what they are. Here’s what each reward type does in Anime Vanguards so you know exactly what you’re getting:
| Reward | What It Does | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Gems | Premium currency for summoning units on banners | More gems = more pulls = better chance at S-tier units |
| Trait Rerolls | Re-roll a unit’s trait bonus for different stats | Getting the right trait on a top unit is a massive power boost |
| Memoria Shards | New currency for the Memoria upgrade system | Powers up units beyond their base level cap |
| Stat Chips | Directly boost a specific unit’s stats | Quick stat increases without waiting for dupes |
| Phoenix Shards | Rare material for unit evolution | Required for evolving certain units to their final form |
| Gold | Basic currency for standard upgrades | Used for leveling units and purchasing basic items |
| Rainbow Essence Stones | Rare crafting material | Used in high-tier crafting recipes |
| Corruption Crystal | Special item from the CORRUPTION code | Unique event-related item |
Trait Rerolls are arguably the most valuable reward from codes. A perfect trait on a meta unit like Demon Hybrid or Demon Leader from Update 11 can increase their damage output significantly. Never waste your rerolls on units you won’t use long-term.
Anime Vanguards Update 11 — What’s New
Since most of the new codes are tied to Update 11, here’s what the Chainsaw Man update actually brought to the game:
New Units (Chainsaw Man Theme)
Update 11 added 7 new units inspired by Chainsaw Man, including:
- Demon Hybrid — One of the strongest new additions, based on Denji
- Demon Leader — Inspired by Makima, powerful support/control unit
- Demon Hunter — High single-target DPS
- Explosive Demon — AOE specialist
- Delusional Demon — Unique debuff kit
- Plus 2 additional Chainsaw Man characters
Level Editor
For the first time, players can create and share custom maps. This is huge for the community and adds near-unlimited replayability.
Downtown Tokyo
A brand new story area set in Downtown Tokyo, fitting the Chainsaw Man theme perfectly. This means new stages, new enemies, and new rewards to grind.
Season 11 Battlepass
The new battlepass rewards Memoria Shards instead of Gold, which is why the new codes also give memoria shards — Kitawari is pushing this new currency hard.

Where to Find New Codes First
Anime Vanguards codes don’t last forever — most expire in about two weeks. Here’s where to find them as soon as they drop:
- Official Discord Server — The announcements channel posts codes within minutes of release. This is always the fastest source.
- X/Twitter (@kitawari_rblx) — The official developer account shares codes alongside update announcements.
- This Page — We update this page daily so you can always check back here for the latest.
- In-Game Mailbox — Sometimes the devs send rewards directly to your in-game mailbox via the Discord connection.
You can also join the Kitawari Roblox Group for early access to some announcements and the occasional group-exclusive reward.
Tips for Maximizing Your Code Rewards
Getting the codes is only half the battle. Here’s how to get the most value from your free rewards:
Save Gems for Rate-Up Banners
Don’t blow all 130,000+ gems on the standard banner. Wait for rate-up banners featuring the new Chainsaw Man units — your odds of pulling something good are significantly better during rate-ups.
Use Trait Rerolls on S-Tier Units Only
You have over 1,000 rerolls from codes. That sounds like a lot, but getting a perfect trait can take 50-100+ attempts depending on luck. Focus your rerolls on your absolute best units — Demon Hybrid, Demon Leader, and whoever else ends up at the top of the Update 11 meta.
Level Up to 30 Before Redeeming
Many of the best codes require Level 30. If you’re a new player, focus on clearing story stages and gaining XP before trying to redeem the high-value codes. The Level 10 codes (InnocentAnger, Spring, Freedom) can still be redeemed early to give you a head start.
Redeem Older Codes First
Older codes are more likely to expire soon. Start with the pre-Update 11 codes and work your way to the newest ones to minimize the chance of missing any.
