Anime Ability Arena Events Schedule: Gear 5 Countdown and What’s Next
Anime Ability Arena’s next scheduled event, Gear 5, goes live on October 23 and brings a new variant character into the game’s fighter lineup. The developer has it tagged as a new-content update, and the headline draw is the fighter it adds.
It is one of the busier anime fighters on Roblox right now, with about about 7,900 players in matches at the moment. The experience has pulled in more than about 150,000,000 visits and sits at over about 230,000 favorites, so a new character release tends to draw a large crowd.
Here’s what’s coming up for Anime Ability Arena, when it starts, and how much interest it’s drawing. We update it as the schedule changes. Last updated November 13.

Current and upcoming events
Gear 5
The headline item on the calendar is Gear 5, billed as a new variant character for the roster. It’s scheduled to run from 1:00 PM ET on October 23 through 1:00 PM ET on October 26 (10:00 AM PT / 6:00 PM BST at the start), a window of about three days. The developer has tagged it as a new-content update built around the new fighter, so the specifics of its moveset will become clear once it’s in the game.
Interest is already high: about 1,100,000 players have marked themselves as going, putting it well past 800,000 before it even starts — more than double the turnout of the game’s most recent character event. Exact start and end times are in the schedule above.
Asta Revamp (recently ended)
The last event to wrap was Asta Revamp, a character revamp that ran from October 10 to October 12. It drew nearly 390,000 interested players across its roughly two-day window. Paired with Gear 5, it points to a steady rhythm of character-focused updates — a reworked fighter one week, a brand-new one not long after.
