What to check when you are stuck
CheckIf a boss or a hard quest keeps defeating you, there are a few concrete things to verify before giving up.
- Is your level high enough? If you are significantly below the content's demand, grind overworld enemies before retrying.
- Are you combining abilities well? Having only one ability, or abilities that do not pair well, leaves a lot of damage on the table.
- Is your build set up for this fight? Adjust your equipment and stat distribution to match what the enemy actually does.
- Do you know the boss's attack patterns? Run the fight a few times just to watch what it does before committing to a full attempt.

Common questions
FAQCan free players reach the same level as premium players?
Yes. All thirteen series are available without spending anything, and combining abilities from them can carry you to a high level. Premium adds an experience multiplier and daily quest bonuses, but neither locks any content behind a paywall.
Which series should I start with?
Pick whichever anime or manga you already enjoy — JJK, JJBA, DBZ, and all the others are available as abilities in the game.
I keep losing to the same boss. What should I do?
Check three things: your level, how many abilities you are combining, and whether your build suits that specific fight. If all three seem fine, run the boss a few more times just to study its attack patterns before you go all-out.
Where do I enter gift codes?
There is a dedicated input field inside the game for entering codes. Enter each code separately, and do so as soon as you find one since codes are time-limited and can expire.
Is it safe to play if I have photosensitive epilepsy?
The game contains flashing images that can trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy. If that applies to you, speak with a doctor or medical professional before deciding whether to play.
