Story Mode in Anime Expeditions is built around a chain of maps modeled after popular anime and manga settings. Each one hands out EXP, coins, and food items, but the real reason to farm them is the unit equipment. That gear unlocks specific characters’ higher-end potential, and it only drops from the map tied to that unit.
Quick answer: Clear every act in your current map to unlock the next one. Five maps are live right now, ending at King’s Tomb, and each drops one food item, one standard equipment piece, and one or more unit-specific equipment items.
How map unlocking works
Maps unlock in a fixed order. You cannot skip ahead. To open the next map, you must finish all acts in the one before it, so progression is strictly linear from School Grounds through to King’s Tomb.
Higher-level maps carry stronger equipment, which makes the later stages the best farming targets once you reach them. If you are stuck on a stage, redeeming the launch codes for early Gems and Trait Crystals gives you enough resources to strengthen a carry and push through.

All Anime Expeditions maps and rewards
Every map drops a mix of three reward types. Food items support unit upkeep, standard equipment works across your roster, and unit equipment applies to one named character only. The table below lists each map with its full drop set.
| Map | Rewards |
|---|---|
 School Grounds | Cursed Boba (Food), Kunai (Standard Equipment), Promise Ring (Cursed Student Equipment), Technique Amplifier (Salmon Sorcerer Equipment) |
 Flower Forest | Red Flower (Food), Katana (Standard Equipment), Hell’s Flower (Hollow Equipment) |
 Rose Kingdom | Frown Fruit (Food), Magic Orb (Standard Equipment), Emperor’s Attire (Flame Emperor Equipment), Webbed Fruit (String Demon Equipment) |
 Fairy King Forest | Delicious Pie (Food), Warrior’s Axe (Standard Equipment), Boulder (Lady Giant Equipment), Calamity’s Eye (Puppet Equipment) |
 King’s Tomb | Mana Flash (Food), Magic Book (Standard Equipment), Elven Battle Staff (Elf Mage Equipment) |
Which units each map’s equipment matches
Unit equipment is the key drop on every stage because each piece belongs to one character. If a unit sits in your main team, you should farm the map that carries its gear rather than grinding an unrelated stage. Standard equipment such as Kunai, Katana, Magic Orb, Warrior’s Axe, and Magic Book can slot onto a wider range of units.
| Unit equipment | Unit | Map |
|---|---|---|
| Promise Ring | Cursed Student | School Grounds |
| Technique Amplifier | Salmon Sorcerer | School Grounds |
| Hell’s Flower | Hollow | Flower Forest |
| Emperor’s Attire | Flame Emperor | Rose Kingdom |
| Webbed Fruit | String Demon | Rose Kingdom |
| Boulder | Lady Giant | Fairy King Forest |
| Calamity’s Eye | Puppet | Fairy King Forest |
| Elven Battle Staff | Elf Mage | King’s Tomb |
Challenge Mode for extra farming
Once a map is cleared, its Challenge Mode variant becomes available. Running a map on Challenge returns extra XP and additional resources, which speeds up leveling and makes it easier to power through the next locked stage. Use it on maps whose unit equipment you still need.
Note: New maps arrive through updates, and later releases may introduce equipment and reward types beyond the current five stages. Until then, King’s Tomb is the final map, and Fairy King Forest and King’s Tomb hold the strongest gear you can farm.
Prioritize the map that drops equipment for the units already carrying your team, clear every act to open the next stage, and lean on Challenge Mode when you need a faster level path. That order keeps your best characters equipped while you push deeper into Story Mode.
