Read This First: Two Stocks, One Repricing
Update 15.0 (October 12, 2026) repriced the existing stock. The 2nd Anniversary update removed the Unit Ascension system — ascended units lost their ascension bonuses — and ran a game-wide damage and enemy-health rebalance alongside the new True Shadow Monarch evolution, +5 Memorias and +14 Familiars. Any value list, account listing or unit price written before that date assumes a system that no longer exists; price against the live shelf, not against pre-anniversary guides.
The structural point survives the repricing: Gems are the stored value (accounts are literally stocked and priced on their Gem balances — 120–150K Gems on the top account seen), and rerolls are the working consumable. Play pays both; the market prices both.
What Play Pays
The play side of the economy is the game’s mode rotation: Gems and reroll stock accumulate through play, and the anniversary update added fresh surfaces for both — Shadow Trials as a new mode, permanent AV Arcade minigames, and Build A Unit inside Odyssey Adventure. Event and anniversary windows are the income spikes in this genre’s shape: the anniversary’s own stock (the God Ascended anniversary unit, the Death’s Grasp unit on the Event Pass’s tier 50) exists because the window does.
The Player Quest is the update’s one non-banner route worth naming: the True Shadow Monarch — the Transcendent evolution of Song Jinwu and Igros — is unlocked through it rather than pulled, and opens a seventh team slot when placed first. Quest-locked value cannot be summoned or, directly, bought; it is the part of the roster play alone produces.
The Shelf: How Units and Gems Are Priced
PlayerAuctions’ Roblox items shelf is the price record: 98 offers at our live check, per-unit prices from $0.43 with bulk unit listings running to hundreds of dollars, delivery guarantees from 1 to 24 hours, delivered face-to-face in game or by in-game mailbox. A standalone Gems listing (2,500 Gems at $9.95) prices the currency directly, and the account shelf prices the bundle: level 80–100 accounts carrying 120–150K Gems at $11.58, level 59 accounts from $5.00.
Divide before you buy: a unit’s shelf price is only meaningful against its Gem-and-reroll replacement cost — what the same unit would take to produce through play and pulls. The shelf exists because that replacement cost is real; the discount for buying is your time, priced.
Buying Gems, Units and Time
Three shapes of purchase, three different risks. Units and Gems trade in game (PlayerAuctions under PlayerGuardian; units also inside Eldorado’s combined category) with no login anywhere. Accounts are credential handovers (PlayerAuctions and G2G both run shelves) — the whole Roblox account changes hands. Boosting, on Eldorado, is piloted LOGIN work on your own account, and is flagged as such wherever it appears on this site. The full comparison is in our buying guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Gems in Anime Vanguards?
The game’s premium currency — the balance that accounts are stocked and priced on (120–150K Gems on the top account listing at our check) and that a standalone shelf listing prices directly at 2,500 Gems for $9.95. Alongside Gems, trait rerolls (RRS) are the second tradeable stock.
What did Update 15.0 do to unit values?
It removed the Unit Ascension system (ascended units lost their bonuses) and rebalanced damage and enemy health game-wide, while adding the True Shadow Monarch evolution, new units, +5 Memorias and +14 Familiars. Prices and value lists from before October 12, 2026 assume the removed system.
How are Anime Vanguards units delivered?
In game: face-to-face or by in-game mailbox on PlayerAuctions’ shelf, and through seller chat inside Eldorado’s combined category. No unit trade needs your Roblox password.
Is Anime Vanguards boosting safe?
It is piloted: the booster logs into your account to do the work. That is LOGIN delivery — a different risk from any trade on this page — so use a seller you trust and change your password afterwards. Our buying guide flags it in full.
