Anime Nexus RNG Kokushibu: Stats and Evolution Guide

Kokushibu is an Ascendant ground unit in Anime Nexus RNG obtained by crafting 500 fragments at Mei Hatsume, designed to shred high-health bosses through stacking bleed ticks, percentage damage amplifiers, and map-wide strikes.

What Are Kokushibu's Base Stats and Passives?

Kokushibu is an Ascendant unit introduced in the Halloween Update (Part 1) that costs ¥2,400 to deploy on the battlefield. At level 1, he features 39,550 base Damage, an attack interval (SPA) of 0.93 seconds, a range of 40 studs, and 12,000 Health. Leveling him from 1 to 100 costs ¥67,625,099 in total, raising his base Damage to 157,020 (235,527 for shiny units) and his Health to 47,640.

According to the Kokushibu entry on the Anime Nexus RNG Wiki, his base kit operates on six distinct passive abilities:

• Moon Breathing triggers every 4th attack, slashing targets within 10 studs for 70% Damage.
• Upper Moon One grants 20% increased Damage against bosses and targets holding more than 50% HP.
• Crescent Wounds inflicts a bleed for 30% Damage per second across 4 seconds whenever a skill connects.
• Upper Moon's Pride adds +8% stacking Damage per consecutive hit on an enemy up to +40%, resetting if the target switches.
• Crescent Detonation detonates every 4th bleed applied to a target, dealing 120% Damage to that enemy and nearby units within 10 studs.
• Nemesis deals 10% Damage to the highest-health foe anywhere on the map on every attack or skill.

He unlocks three active skills while leveling: Dark Moon Evening Palace at level 1, Pearl Flower Moongazing at level 7, and Loathsome Moon Chains at level 13.

How Do You Obtain Kokushibu Fragments?

Kokushibu Fragments are rare crafting materials brought to Mei Hatsume in quantities of 500 to assemble the base unit. Players gather these shards across multiple Halloween activities or post-event challenge runs.

During the seasonal event, Pumpkin Portals yield shards on clear screens: 1 to 2 fragments in Tier I, 2 to 4 in Tier II, 3 to 5 in Tier III, 4 to 6 in Tier IV, and 6 to 8 in Tier V. Milestones in the Haunted Tower provide 5 fragments every 10 floors up to floor 100, totaling 50 guaranteed pieces. Outside the event window, Shinjuku Showdown Legend Stages drop 1 fragment per standard clear and 2 fragments on Nightmare difficulty.

How Do You Complete Kokushibu's Unit Evolutions?

Evolutions are performed at the Merlyn NPC in the lobby once level requirements, kill counts, and stage tasks are completed. As documented on the Anime Nexus RNG Evolutions Wiki page, Kokushibu advances across two distinct stages: Kokushibu (Moon Breathing) and Kokushibu (Full Demon).

The upgrade process for unit evolution requires specific stage drops alongside common essences:

1. Level the base unit to level 60, defeat 3,000 enemies with Kokushibu deployed, and clear Fairy Forest Act 6 on Nightmare 10 times.
2. Deliver 1 Broken Flute, 40 Crescent Blade Shards, 30 Red Star Essences, and ¥2,500,000 to Merlyn to unlock Moon Breathing. Broken Flute drops on a 35% rate (guaranteed by clear 3) in Fairy Forest Act 6 on Nightmare or Pumpkin Portal V.
3. Level Moon Breathing to level 80, accumulate 5,000 total lifetime kills, and clear Shinjuku Showdown Act 3 (Legend Stage) on Nightmare 6 times.
4. Deliver 1 Demon Moon Eye, 25 Moon Breathing Scrolls, 60 Crescent Blade Shards, 60 Red Star Essences, and ¥5,000,000 to Merlyn to unlock Full Demon form. Demon Moon Eye drops on a 35% rate (guaranteed by clear 3) in Shinjuku Showdown Legend Stage Act 3 on Nightmare or Pumpkin Portal V.

Which Form Fits Your Team Setup?

Deciding when to promote Kokushibu depends on your current progression stage and unlocked farming areas.

Kokushibu (Moon Breathing) gains the Total Concentration: Moon passive, granting a 30% attack speed surge for 6 seconds every 20 seconds. Deploying Moon Breathing costs ¥2,600, reaching 189,625 base damage at level 100.

Kokushibu (Full Demon) adds Ensnaring Moon, which slows foes within 12 studs by 30% for 3 seconds every 15 seconds while making them take 15% bonus Damage for 5 seconds. Deploying Full Demon costs ¥2,800, capping at 226,105 base damage at level 100. Pairing his forms with the Kokushibu Relic adds Crescent Moon Blades, Upper Moon One attack speed bonuses, and stacking kill damage from Demon of the Moon.
