Roll an Anime Rebirth Planning Guide
Reset for permanent multipliers without throwing away your self-rolled advantage.
Rebirth is the long loop inside Roll an Anime. The short loop is dice, blocks, pedestals, and cash. The long loop is knowing when that short loop has stopped paying enough, then resetting for permanent multipliers so the next climb starts stronger. Because the game has no combat, rebirth is the main prestige system that separates early plots from late-game Godly farms.
This guide focuses on timing, eligibility, and recovery — not vibes. If you are still learning the basics, finish Getting Started and How to Play first.
What rebirth is for
Rebirth trades a chunk of short-term progress for lasting account strength. Community guides describe the payoff as permanent multipliers and access to stronger progression bands over repeated resets. Exact button labels and thresholds can change with patches, so confirm UI details after reading Updates. The planning framework stays stable:
- You reset when growth is stalling, not when you are bored for five minutes.
- You protect the units and knowledge that make recovery fast.
- You re-enter the loop with better income math than before.
The hard rule: traded characters do not count
This is the rebirth fact players ignore until it hurts them. Characters obtained by trading do not count for rebirth. If your plot looks strong only because of traded fillers, you may be visually rich and rebirth-poor.
Practical consequences:
- Chase self-rolled units from better blocks.
- Do not assume a traded Godly solves reset requirements.
- When evaluating anchors to keep through planning, prefer self-rolled mutated units.
- Use trading for curiosity later, not as your rebirth strategy.
If you need placement help while staying self-rolled focused, use Best Setup and Best Units.
When you are ready to rebirth
You are closer to a good rebirth when most of these are true:
- Every pedestal is filled and earning.
- Your block tier is high enough that more dice on the current pool feels inefficient.
- You hold self-rolled anchors worth protecting in your recovery plan.
- Cash growth has flattened even during normal play.
- You can point to a recovery window: active codes, weather, or mutation events.
You are not ready when:
- Pedestals are still empty.
- You have not redeemed WELCOME or basic progression codes from Codes.
- Your plot depends on traded units for its best slots.
- You have a rare weather window starting and still have unused stock.
What to do in the session before you reset
Treat the final pre-rebirth session like a launch checklist:
- Read current notes on Updates.
- Snapshot your best self-rolled units and mutations using Mutations vocabulary.
- Spend or intentionally reserve resources according to whether the reset consumes them in the current patch.
- Redeem only the codes that help recovery immediately after reset, guided by how to redeem.
- Know your first three post-rebirth purchases: fill pedestals, buy the next block, then roll during luck.
Cash and Offline Earnings helps you decide whether to bank one more overnight stack before resetting.
Recovery plan after rebirth
A clean recovery looks almost identical to a strong beginner hour, just faster:
- Fill every pedestal immediately — Commons are fine.
- Place your strongest allowed self-rolled anchors on the best pedestals.
- Push block upgrades hard using permanent multipliers.
- Save early stock for the first good weather or mutation window.
- Avoid panic trading to “look strong” again.
Increase Luck and the Boost Planner are most valuable in this rebuild window because every boosted roll compounds with rebirth multipliers.
Mutations and rebirth
Community reports commonly treat mutations as high-value keepers across resets when the units themselves persist or remain part of your protected set. Even when patch details vary, the decision rule is stable: a mutated self-rolled unit is usually more important than a blank higher-rarity trophy. Do not sell your mutated anchors to cosmetically clean the plot before a reset unless you have confirmed they cannot help you.
Game passes and rebirth
Auto Roll, 2x Luck, 2x Cash, Storage, and VIP all make post-rebirth recovery less tedious. They do not remove the traded-character rule. Buy passes to compress grinding if you want, not to skip learning which units are actually eligible and productive.
Rebirth mistakes that waste days
- Resetting with empty pedestals and no recovery codes ready
- Counting traded units as if they were self-rolled progress
- Burning luck timers right before a reset instead of after
- Ignoring block upgrades and trying to dice-spam your way out of a plateau
- Chasing screenshot Godlies from Tier List pages without a full plot

Rebirth rewards preparation. If your self-rolled plot is full, your block tier is respectable, and a recovery window is waiting, reset with confidence. If not, keep compounding one more clean session.
