Everything you need to pull the Secret-tier Maki unit from the Extermination Event and unlock its Restricted form.

Awakened Sibling is a Secret-rarity unit added to Anime Vanguards with the Extermination Event Pt. 2 (14.0) update. Its design is based on Maki Zenin from Jujutsu Kaisen, and it drops exclusively from the Extermination Event Dungeon. Once you own it, a single evolution turns it into the far stronger Awakened Sibling (Restricted).

Quick answer: Clear runs of the Extermination Event Dungeon for a 5% drop per clear (pity 30), or buy the unit outright for 2,000 Extermination Tokens. Then evolve it using 1 Sacred Armament, 30 Green, 30 Pink, 30 Red, 5 Rainbow Essence, and 50,000 Gold.


Awakened Sibling unit overview

Awakened Sibling is an Unbound-element unit built around the Heavenly Restriction mechanic. It cannot hold a Trait, Stats, Memoria, or Familiar, and its stats stay at 0%. In exchange, it carries a permanent 100% Critical Chance with Overcrit, so every hit lands as a boosted critical.

Its attacks inflict Opportunity for 10 seconds and deal 50% more damage to shielded enemies. Opportunity removes and prevents damage over time on affected targets. While Awakened Sibling is placed, your other Unbound units deal 100% more damage to enemies marked by Opportunity, which is why it functions as a support anchor rather than a solo carry.


How to get Awakened Sibling

There are two paths to the base unit. The random route relies on dungeon clears, while the guaranteed route spends event currency.

Head to the Dungeons area and talk to the NPC to queue for the Extermination Event Dungeon. Each cleared run rolls a 5% chance to award Awakened Sibling, and a pity counter guarantees it by 30 clears.
If you would rather skip the drop odds, open the Extermination Event Shop and purchase Awakened Sibling directly for 2,000 Extermination Tokens.

Tip: The dungeon offers a Hunt: Awakened Sibling rule for 30 shared points. Buying it doubles the unit’s drop chance and makes the run count as 2 pity, which speeds up the random route considerably.


Evolution materials for Awakened Sibling (Restricted)

The evolution is a straight upgrade that keeps the Heavenly Restriction identity but adds two new passives and a much higher damage ceiling. Gather the items below, then evolve the unit at the evolution area.

The Sacred Armament is not a random drop. You can buy it from the Extermination Event Shop for 500 Extermination Tokens, so budget your tokens accordingly if you also plan to buy the base unit there.

You will know the evolution worked when the unit’s name changes to Awakened Sibling (Restricted) in your collection and its upgrade tree expands to include the new abilities and higher stats.


Awakened Sibling (Restricted) stats and abilities

The Restricted form stays an Unbound Secret unit but scales dramatically through its upgrade path. Base reference stats sit at 315,536 DMG at level 60, with a 7-second attack interval and 30 range.

Two passives set the Restricted version apart. Following His Footsteps lets 80% of its damage bypass enemy shields, ignores Damage Resistance, follows basic attacks with Attack 1, and adds a non-critical hit on the furthest enemy. Burning Revenge makes any replacement unit keep its upgrade and deal 200% more damage to the enemy that removed it if it is deleted, sold, or destroyed.

The stat amplifier upgrade path scales the unit from placement through its final tier. The full cost to max the Restricted amplifier is 151,000 ¥, and its placement limit is one.

The fastest way to lock in Awakened Sibling is to run the dungeon with the Hunt rule active, then convert your leftover Extermination Tokens into the Sacred Armament and buy the unit if your drops run dry before pity. Once evolved, its shield-bypassing damage and Opportunity support make it a reliable fixture for Unbound-focused teams.
