Skill Breakdown

Anis: Superstar’s skill design revolves around two modes: “My Own Star” and “Everyone’s Star,” which switch automatically based on whether other B1 Nikkes are present in the squad.

Skill 1: Starfall — Dual-Mode Core Passive

Continuous Effect (All Allies): While Anis: Superstar is active, the entire team gains +6% Burst Gauge Fill Speed.

Mode 1: My Own Star — Triggered when there are no other B1 Nikkes in the squad:

EffectValue
Self ATK+40.01% (Permanent, Unremovable)
Team Burst CDRReduces CD by 7.48s after Full Burst ends
Full Charge Extra DMGDeals 120.13% of Final ATK on hit

Mode 2: Everyone’s Star — Triggered when other B1 Nikkes are present: Anis automatically re-enters Stage 1 after her Burst (Continuous effect, unremovable). When paired with Crown or other B1 Nikkes, this significantly improves Burst rotation efficiency.

💡 Hidden Advantage: While the Starfall attack targets “randomly,” community testing suggests it likely prioritizes breakable boss parts (e.g., Mirror Container plates, Mother Whale ports), greatly simplifying difficult part-break mechanics!

Best Team Compositions

Setup 1: Solo B1 Mode (My Own Star) — Recommended for Most Players

Anis acts as the sole B1, activating “My Own Star” mode. Her own ATK is significantly boosted, and she reduces team cooldowns by 7.48s after every Full Burst, greatly accelerating the Burst cycle.

Is She Worth Pulling? Recruitment Advice

The answer is: Strongly Recommended. Anis: Superstar is the highest-rated B1 Nikke in history (Tier 0), with a massive power gap over others. Here is why she fits almost every player and team:

  • Strongest B1 for All Teams: Regardless of your setup, she is the best B1 choice, functioning perfectly as a solo B1 or in a duo B1 pairing.
  • Massive Burst Acceleration: +6% continuous Burst fill + 7.49s CDR after every Burst gives your team a clear advantage in Raids and high-difficulty stages.
  • Incredible Damage: Her Starfall damage rivals current B3 DPS cores, yet she is a B1 support—essentially “two units in one.”
  • Part-Breaking Advantage: Likely prioritizes breakable boss parts, making fights like Mirror Container and Mother Whale much easier.
  • High Value 3.5 Anniversary: Released alongside free SSR Avistar and Neon: Visionary Eye, this version offers the highest return on investment.

If resources are limited, prioritize recruiting Anis: Superstar first, then evaluate Neon: Visionary Eye based on remaining tickets (Neon: Visionary Eye Build Guide). Both excel in different teams, but having both is ideal.
