Anime Games for Android: RPGs, Gacha and School Sims

Anime style, very different games

Anime in an Android game title usually describes the art, not the gameplay. The same tag holds a card battler based on a manga, a single player action RPG, a school life sandbox and a character dress up app. Players coming from search often want one specific thing: a story to follow, characters to collect, or a relaxed place to experiment. Sorting by that goal saves a lot of downloading.

Cards in this tag

• The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross: a card battle game based on the Seven Deadly Sins story and characters.
• Epic Conquest 2 MOD APK: an action RPG with an anime look and a story driven campaign.
• One Piece Treasure Cruise MOD APK: a turn based game built around the One Piece crew.
• SAKURA School Simulator MOD APK: a sandbox about school life where you decide what happens.
• Kritika: The White Knights: a fantasy action game with a team of heroes.
• Heroes Evolved: a team battle game in the MOBA style.
• Gacha Life: a character creator for making and dressing your own anime style avatars.

How to choose

If you want a story, pick the licensed adaptations or the single player RPG. If you like collecting, check how the game handles characters and upgrades, because gacha systems can take real time. If you want to play with friends, the team battler is the place to start. Creative players will enjoy Gacha Life and the school sandbox, which have no win condition at all. Related tags include gacha, turn based RPG, action RPG and MOBA.

What to check before installing

Many anime RPGs are large and download extra resources on first launch, so check the size and keep Wi-Fi on. Most card and team games need a constant connection, while the sandbox and creator titles can often run without one. The tag also lists AnimLovers, which is a viewing app rather than a game, so open its page if you are looking for something to watch instead of play.

With MOD versions, expect unlocked currency or characters in single player titles. In online games, a modded client may stop working after a server update, and some accounts can be flagged, so avoid using your main account. Always scan APK files before installing. Find more on the games page, in the MOD section and in the guides.
