Crimson is an Exclusive unit in Anime Expeditions that arrived with the Release (0.0) build on July 17th, 2026. It carries Dark and Magical typings, has a placement limit of 2, and is inspired by Choso from Jujutsu Kaisen. There is no summon banner for it, so pulling it is not possible.
Quick answer: Reach Level 50 in the Season 1 Battlepass to unlock Crimson. It is the only way to obtain the unit, and it is time-limited.
Unlock Crimson through the Season 1 Battlepass
Crimson is tied directly to Battlepass progression rather than luck. You earn it by grinding Battlepass levels until you hit the reward tier where it is granted.
You will know it worked when Crimson appears in your unit collection. Because it is a Limited unit, each copy carries a timestamp of obtainment, so you can confirm the exact moment it was earned.
Note: Crimson can only be obtained during its limited window. Once the Season 1 Battlepass ends, this route closes, so complete Level 50 before the season expires.
Crimson passive and combat behavior
Crimson deals Magical Archetype damage with the Dark element. Its passive, Crimson Explosion, applies pressure over time rather than in a single hit.
- Each Regular Attack inflicts enemies with Crimson Mark.
- A Crimson Marked enemy triggers a Crimson Explode after 5 seconds, dealing 15% of the unit’s current damage.
- Its Bleed effect deals 0.65x damage across 6 ticks over 6 seconds.

Evolve Crimson into Crimson (Brother)
Once you own Crimson, it evolves into the stronger form Crimson (Brother). Gather the following materials to complete the evolution.
| Material | Amount |
|---|---|
| Sprite (Red) | x20 |
| Sprite (Pink) | x20 |
| Sprite (Rainbow) | x1 |
| Gold | x5,000 |
Because Crimson is limited and unlocked only at Level 50 of the Season 1 Battlepass, treat the Battlepass grind as your priority. Secure the unit first, then work toward the evolution materials to reach Crimson (Brother).
