Starku (Resurrected) Guide for Anime Origins: Crafting and Evolution

Every Artifact, drop rate, and evolution item needed to build Starku (Primordial) in Anime Origins.

Every Artifact, drop rate, and evolution item needed to build Starku (Primordial) in Anime Origins.

Starku (Resurrected) is the odd one out in Anime Origins. Every other unit comes from a banner pull or a stage clear, but this Mythic is built at a workbench from Artifacts you assemble yourself. Modeled on Coyote Starrk, the Primera Espada from Bleach, he trades sustained output for big Damage and long Range, which makes him a clean answer to fast movers and Shielded enemies.

Quick answer: Talk to the Crafting NPC in the lobby, open the Starku (Resurrected) recipe, and hit Craft once you hold Wolf Spirit Pistols (White), Lone Wolf Eyepatch, and Azure Saint Blade. All three Artifacts are built from KTR materials that drop in Karakura Town Story mode.


The three Artifacts you need for Starku (Resurrected)

The unit recipe itself is simple. The grind sits one layer below it, in the KTR materials that feed each Artifact. Those drop from Karakura Town Story stages, so the farming loop is just repeating those stages until the low-percentage pieces show up.

Each Artifact needs one copy of every material listed below, and the percentage next to each one is its drop rate.

ArtifactMaterial (1x each)Drop rate
Wolf Spirit Pistols (White)KTR-3 Ascendant10%
Wolf Spirit Pistols (White)KTR-3 Perfected6%
Wolf Spirit Pistols (White)KTR-3 Empowered4%
Wolf Spirit Pistols (White)KTR-3 Intact2%
Lone Wolf EyepatchKTR-2 Ascendant10%
Lone Wolf EyepatchKTR-2 Perfected6%
Lone Wolf EyepatchKTR-2 Empowered4%

Azure Saint BladeKTR-1 Ascendant10%
Azure Saint BladeKTR-2 Perfected6%
Azure Saint BladeKTR-2 Empowered4%
Azure Saint BladeKTR-2 Intact2%

Note: the 2% Intact pieces are the usual bottleneck, not the 10% Ascendant ones. Plan your Story runs around those.


How to craft Starku (Resurrected)

Farm Karakura Town Story stages until you have every KTR material listed above. Repeat clears are the only route here, so it is worth running the stages your team can finish fastest.
Build Wolf Spirit Pistols (White), Lone Wolf Eyepatch, and Azure Saint Blade from those materials. All three must be in your inventory at the same time before the unit recipe becomes usable.
Head to the Crafting NPC in the lobby, select the Starku (Resurrected) recipe, and press Craft. The Artifacts are consumed and the Mythic lands in your unit collection.

If the Craft button will not fire, it is almost always one missing Artifact rather than a missing material. Check that all three finished Artifacts exist, not just the KTR pieces that make them.


Evolving Starku (Resurrected) into Starku (Primordial)

The crafted unit is only half the project. Starku (Primordial) is the form that carries the passives worth building around, and it needs a second batch of items.

ItemAmountWhere it comes from
Azure Remnant18xChallenges or crafting
Violet Remnant10xChallenges or crafting
Radiant Remnant5xChallenges or crafting
Prismatic Remnant1xChallenges or crafting (rarest of the four)
Wolf Spirit Pistols (Black)1xKarakura Town Legend stage 2, 5% chance

Wolf Spirit Pistols (Black) is the wall. Legend stage 2 is considerably harder than the Story versions of Karakura Town, and the item only appears 5% of the time on a clear, so bring a team that can finish the run reliably before you start repeating it.

With everything in hand, open the Evolve menu, pick Starku (Resurrected), and confirm. The unit entry swaps over to Starku (Primordial) with the new passive list attached, which is your confirmation the evolution went through.

Starku (Primordial) passives and how to place him

Both passives push in the same direction. One rewards isolation, the other rewards hitting enemies he has already slowed, so his damage ceiling depends heavily on where you drop him on the map.

PassiveEffect
Lone Gunslinger+10% Damage and +10% Range while no other units sit within 50% of his Range
Gun SmokeAttacks Slow enemies by 15% for 3 seconds, and he deals +15% Damage to Slowed targets

In practice, that means parking him away from your main cluster. Crowding him with other units cancels Lone Gunslinger outright, and the Range bonus is what lets him reach the lanes your grouped DPS cannot. Gun Smoke handles its own setup, since his first hit applies the Slow that his own bonus damage then feeds on.

Best trait for Starku (Primordial)

Overseer is the pick. It grants +20% Damage, -5% Cooldown, +10% Range, and adds bonus True Damage equal to 30% of the damage dealt, which suits a unit whose value is concentrated in large individual hits. It rolls at 4.1% within the Mythic pool, so expect to spend rerolls.

To reroll, open the Areas button in the right-hand menu, choose Trait Reroll, and walk up to the NPC. Select Starku, then hit Reroll. Each unit can hold two traits, but only one stays active at a time.


Compared with the Mythics locked behind low pull rates, Starku is unusually reachable for a mid-game roster, since the whole chain is farmable rather than luck-gated at the summon screen. He will not out-sustain the top ground DPS options over a long wave, but for stages where you need a heavy, long-range burst on a shielded or fast target, he is the unit you bring.
