Agony Shinobi is the standout unit from the Anime Vanguards Update 12, serving as a dedicated support character for Ninjutsu-type units. Players can obtain Agony Shinobi as a 4% drop from the third level of the Destroyed Hidden Village Legend stage, where they face the Agony Shinobi (Ascended) boss. Upon acquiring the unit, players can evolve it into Agony Shinobi (Force) using 12 Energy Rods, 20 Green Essences, 30 Purple Essences, 30 Red Essences, 3 Rainbow Essences, and 15,000 Gold. The evolved unit boasts two active abilities: Arsenal of Pain, which offers three high-damage attacks, and Shinobi Resurrection, reviving sold Ninjutsu-type units for 30 seconds. Additionally, Agony Shinobi (Force) has three passive abilities that enhance its damage output and support capabilities. The unit's specialty Memoria, Shall Know Pain, can be obtained as a 4% drop from the second level of the same stage. Recommended traits for maximizing Agony Shinobi's effectiveness include Ethereal, Solar, and Marksman, which improve its range and ability to inflict status ailments on enemies.
