With the latest Anime Last Stand update, numerous new units have been introduced. While some are completely new, others are evolutions of existing units. One such unit is Zenitsu, or the "Lightning Swordsman" as he’s referred to in the game, which now has a new evolution called the Sleeping Thunder unit.
If you’re eager to learn how to get your hands on this unit and want to know what it offers and whether it’s worth the grind to evolve, then this guide is for you. Below, we will show you exactly how to get the new Sleeping Thunder unit in Anime Last Stand, as well as take an in-depth look at his stats.
How To Unlock The Sleeping Thunder Unit In Anime Last Stand
To get your hands on the Sleeping Thunder unit, you first need to obtain the base unit that it evolves from, the Lightning Swordsman, which can be unlocked via Banner 1 and Banner 2. However, since it's a Legendary tier unit, it only drops with a 5.5% chance. Once you have this base unit, you can proceed to unlock its newly added evolution.
To evolve the Lightning Swordsman into the Sleeping Thunder unit, you need to acquire a special item, which can be unlocked by completing Raids 4 and above. This might take some time to grind, but once you have the item, you can evolve your base unit into Sleeping Thunder. This evolution brings a host of potent abilities that make it a great support unit.
