“It’s a cheap attempt to copy Anime Adventures”: Anime Vanguards Has the Potential to Become Huge But Fans Have Some Complaints Against It

SUMMARY

• Fans are concerned Anime Vanguard lacks innovation, feeling too similar to Anime Adventures.
• AV restricts players from earning free gems or re-rolling units, making progression feel pay-dependent.
• Some players criticize AV’s resemblance to Anime Adventures, fearing potential backlash and loss of interest.

Uniting all your favorite anime characters from different universes no longer remains a dream—Anime Vanguards has made it a thrilling reality. Anime Vanguards is the latest Tower Defense title on Roblox and has already taken over the internet, captivating many anime fans worldwide.

Not to mention, several players are claiming it to be a true successor to Anime Adventures. Back in 2023, Anime Adventures got shut down due to a DMCA takedown request issued by Gamefam on behalf of Crunchyroll. From beautiful design to splendid gameplay, Anime Vanguards offers players a blissful experience that fans have long been anticipating.

While Anime Vanguards‘ immense success is truly mind-boggling, some fans are expressing concern about its shortcomings, which they believe could harm its future success.

Potential Pitfalls: How Anime Vanguards‘ Path to Glory Could Be Derailed

Anime Vanguards (AV) perfectly combines the themes of anime and space, which has led to its immense success and popularity on Roblox. Similar to any other tower defense title, the game follows the same building blocks principle. However, AV introduced many crowd-favorite features that made it a standout among Roblox players.

Surprisingly, unlike other tower defense games, AV doesn’t offer players free gems and the luxury to re-roll units indefinitely. Instead, it lets you choose one iconic character from the Big Three as your starter unit in the game. You can pick your first starter character from Ichigo, Luffy, and Naruto.

Although AV is making waves online, some fans are seeing it as a cheap copy of Anime Adventures. They believe developers didn’t add any innovation from their side to introduce unique concepts, units, or designs. While some fans are criticizing the recent Roblox title, many are pleased after finding the resemblance to Anime Adventures.

It’s important to highlight that Anime Vanguards and Anime Adventures are rumored to share a few developers. Owing to Anime Adventures‘ immense success, the developers intended to follow the same principle without getting a DMCA strike.

Anime Vanguards lets players summon dozens of different units, falling into different rarities, stats, and abilities. With the addition of numerous characters, players always like to invest in the most broken units to speed up their progress and clear every level with ease. Who’s the most broken character in Anime Vanguards?

Tengen from Demon Slayer Overtakes Igris as the Most Overpowered Character

Until now, Igris (in-game name- Igros) was undoubtedly regarded as the most broken character. Sadly, players who have invested heavily in Igros were left heartbroken as AV has introduced a new character who has surpassed the rest in terms of combat, strength, and damage.

Tengen (in-game name-Tengon) has now been crowned as the strongest character in the game, with only a few days of release. Naturally, many players who already spent a lot of resources are now questioning their choices and decisions. Tengon’s passive in the game is regarded as one of the most broken skills that allows players to dodge the enemy’s attack with ease.

It increases Tengon’s damage and RNG by 10% and also raises the chances of dodging the enemy’s attack by 3% (can be increased to 60% max). Additionally, his Frozen Solid freezes the ground around his body, dealing damage to nearby enemies, after he dies. This ability can be useful in team battles or for controlling the flow of combat, making him a standout from the rest of the characters.
