A large screen on the building shows six cards with a blond character portrait, each labeled with a rarity and rate such as Rare 25.7%, Epic 20%, Legendary 2.5% and Mythic 0.312%, above a pink neon SUMMON sign flanked by stars.

Key takeaways
  • Anime Adventures is a Strategy (Tower Defense) experience by the Roblox group Gomu, created in December 2021. Around 12:35 UTC on November 3, 2026 it had about 2.56 billion visits, more than 90,000 people playing and a like ratio of about 92 percent, ranking second in worldwide Top Trending, third in the United States and first in Japan and Taiwan.
  • The official description sums up the game in one line: summon the strongest heroes and save these worlds together. The game pass texts fill in the rest: heroes are called units, shiny units are a rarer summon result, unit storage has a limit, and units can be shown off in the lobby.
  • The name carries an UPD 21 tag, but the experience page does not list what the update adds. On PC, DOR records from the moment you join until you leave, so the summon that finally gives you a Mythic can be trimmed into a Short or a link later.

Anime Adventures is a Roblox tower defense game with more than 2.5 billion visits, and right now it sits near the top of the Top Trending chart. Right now its name reads [☀️UPD 21🏖️] Anime Adventures. The experience is published by the Roblox group Gomu and was created in December 2021.

Its official genre is Strategy, Tower Defense, and the description sets up the story in two sentences: a catastrophic event has summoned countless threats across multiple worlds, and it has also brought all the heroes together.

Your job is to summon the strongest heroes and save those worlds together. The same description says plainly that the experience was made by fans, is unofficial, and is not affiliated with or approved by the owners of any anime, manga or game it draws on.

We checked the official Roblox data on PC around 12:35 UTC on November 3, 2026. Anime Adventures had about 2.56 billion visits, more than 90,000 people playing at that moment, more than 1.8 million favorites and a like ratio of roughly 92 percent.

It was second in worldwide Top Trending and ninth in Top Playing Now. By country it was first in Top Trending in Japan and Taiwan, second in Brazil and third in the United States and Vietnam.

Gomu has also run an official Roblox event called Christmas and Re-release, subtitled The Return, from December 25, 2024 to January 1, 2025, announcing a Christmas update along with re-release content.

This guide covers only what the official experience page, that official event and the game pass texts confirm. Unit tier lists, summon rates and code lists from unofficial sites are left out.

The short version: summon in the lobby, defend in the worlds, and keep your best pulls on video

Anime Adventures splits into two halves, and knowing which one you are in tells you what to do next. The first half happens in the lobby. That is where you summon heroes, which the game calls units, and where your collection lives.

The official game pass texts confirm a few things about this half. Summons can produce shiny units, a rarer version that the Shiny Hunter pass says it makes three times as likely. Your unit storage has a limit, because the Unit Storage pass adds 100 slots to it.

And the lobby doubles as a showroom, since the Display 3 Units pass puts three of your units around you there. The official thumbnail shows a summon screen with Rare, Epic, Legendary and Mythic tiers, so the top tiers are what everyone is hoping for each time a summon starts.

The second half is the defense itself. As the Tower Defense label says, you place your units so that the threats coming into a world do not get through, and the description asks you to save the worlds together, so playing with friends is part of the design.

The stronger your units, the easier the worlds get, and the VIP pass text shows your account also earns Player XP. When a world feels too hard, look at your lineup before anything else. When the screen fills with units and effects and Roblox starts to stutter, run through Roblox FPS boost settings before a long session.

Starting Anime Adventures: a first session in this order

  1. 1Find the real Anime Adventures by its creatorSearch Anime Adventures on Roblox. On November 3 the top result was the one made by Gomu. Search also shows similar names such as Anime Expeditions and Anime Defenders, and a Roblox client set to another language shows a translated name, so check that the creator is Gomu before you join.
  2. 2Join on PC and bring friends into the same serverThe server you join from the experience page holds up to 30 players. To play together, open the profile of a friend who is already in and use Join Experience to land in the same server (the button appears only if your friend allows others to join them). If Roblox closes the moment you join, start with fixing Roblox crashes on PC.
  3. 3Check your unit storage, then summonSummoning is how you get heroes, and the units you collect go into your storage. Before a long run of summons, check how much room is left. On the result screen, watch the tier: the official thumbnail lists Rare, Epic, Legendary and Mythic, and a shiny unit is the rarer version on top of that.
  4. 4Place your units and defend a worldHead out from the lobby into a world and place your units where the threats come through. The description invites you to save these worlds together, so bringing friends along fits how the game is built. Your first clear with a newly summoned unit is a moment worth keeping.
  5. 5Show off your best units in the lobbyThe game pass list includes Display 3 Units, which shows three of your units around you in the lobby, and Display All Units. If you have one of them, a walk past your new Mythic in the lobby makes a natural last shot for a summon video.

Before you start a session

  • You joined Anime Adventures made by Gomu, not a game with a similar name.
  • You checked how much unit storage is left before summoning.
  • Your friends are joining the same server.
  • DOR is running on your PC, set to 60fps if you want smoother summon animations.
  • You set Roblox graphics quality to suit your PC before units and effects pile up.
Summon clips work best as reveals. Start the cut a few seconds before you press summon, keep every unit as it appears, and end on the rarest one. In DOR Studio, a Punch Zoom on the moment the tier shows up makes the payoff land, and a 9:16 crop fits YouTube Shorts and TikTok as it is. The zoom steps are in adding a punch zoom to game clips.

Keep your best summons on video with DOR

Install DOR, a free Windows PC app, and recording starts automatically when you launch Roblox and join Anime Adventures. When you leave the experience, the session lands in My Clips, so the summon that gave you a Mythic, the shiny you did not see coming and the clear right after are all there.

Game audio and your microphone are captured together on one track, so your own reaction to a Mythic stays in sync with the moment. Open My Clips, find the moment, trim that section and choose 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1.

Recording defaults to 1080p at 30fps, and you can switch to 60fps for smoother summon animations.

Pulls from several sessions can be joined into one video in DOR Studio (dor.gg/studio), where you add effect templates such as Shake Zoom and Punch Zoom, a Glitch transition, text, background music and volume, then export an mp4 or share a dor.gg link that friends can play straight in a phone browser.

Tower defense sessions run long, and older videos are cleared only when the full gameplay storage share (5GB by default) is exceeded, while your latest recordings and liked videos stay. The steps for sending a link are in how to share Roblox gameplay videos.
