If you are anything like me, you are probably glued to Anime Fighting Simulator (AFS) right now, trying to figure out the most efficient way to grind through the new Endless S1 Fighting Pass. This latest update has completely shaken up the meta, introducing a slew of new rewards that are too good to pass up. But let’s be honest—fighting passes can be a grind if you don’t know the exact strategy to maximize your XP gains.

In this comprehensive guide, I’ve dug deep into the mechanics of the Endless S1 season. I’m going to break down every single reward you can unlock, compare the Free vs. Premium tiers, and most importantly, share my personal pro strategies to level up faster than anyone else. Whether you are a free-to-play player or looking to drop some Robux, this guide is your roadmap to maxing out the pass before the season ends.

Quick Overview: Endless S1 Fighting Pass at a Glance

Before we dive into the nitty-gritty details, here is a quick snapshot of what you can expect from the Endless S1 Fighting Pass this March 2026.

All Rewards, Levels, and Breakdown

The most important question on everyone’s mind is: “What am I actually grinding for?” The Endless S1 pass is packed with value. Unlike previous seasons that felt a bit lackluster in the mid-tier levels, S1 keeps the rewards coming consistently from Level 1 all the way to Level 100.

Below, I have compiled the rewards list based on the current game data. Note that developers often tweak values during hotfixes, but the core items remain consistent.

Premium vs. Free Rewards

One of the biggest debates in the community is whether the Premium track is necessary. In my experience, the Endless S1 Premium Pass is heavily geared toward power progression. If you want to compete in PvP or raid efficiently, the Premium exclusive items (specifically the new Curses and the massive Chikara Shard injections) are almost mandatory.

Top 5 Must-Have Rewards:

Level 1 (Premium): 1x Endless Cube (Instantly sells for high Yen or used for crafting).
Level 20: Mystic Potion (Boosts training speed).
Level 45 (Premium): Demonic Spirit (A highly sought-after Special ability).
Level 70: 5,000 Chikara Shards.
Level 100 (Premium): The One Above All (Exclusive Championship title/aura).

Full Reward Level Breakdown (Highlights)

Levels 1-10 (The Early Game Boost):
- Level 1: Endless Cube (Premium) / 500 Yen (Free).
- Level 5: 1x Defense Potion (Free) / 2x Defense Potion (Premium).
- Level 10: 1,000 Chikara Shards (Free) / 2,500 Chikara Shards (Premium).
- Analysis: The early levels are designed to give you a quick boost in stats. The Chikara Shards here are crucial for rolling for a better champion early on.
Levels 11-30 (The Grind Begins):
- Level 15: 1x Strength Potion.
- Level 20: Mystic Potion (Free). This is the first “major” item that saves you hours of grinding.
- Level 25: 2x Fortune IV Ticket.
- Level 30: 5,000 Yen.
- Analysis: This section is standard fare, but the Mystic Potion at 20 is a great stop-gap for free players.
Levels 31-60 (Mid-Game Value):
- Level 35: 2x Strength Potion.
- Level 40: 10,000 Chikara Shards.
- Level 45: Demonic Spirit (Premium). This Special is currently meta-defining due to its AOE damage.
- Level 50: 1x Luck Boost.
- Level 60: 20,000 Yen.
- Analysis: This is where Premium players pull ahead. The Demonic Spirit special alone is worth the price of admission if you don’t already have it.
Levels 61-100 (The End Game Stretch):
- Level 70: 5,000 Chikara Shards.
- Level 80: 1x Speed Potion.
- Level 90: 50,000 Yen.
- Level 100: The One Above All (Premium) / 100,000 Yen (Free).
- Analysis: The Yen rewards at the end are massive, allowing free players to finally afford some decent upgrades, but Premium players get the exclusive bragging rights item.

How to Unlock Fast: The Ultimate Grinding Strategy

Now that we know what we are getting, let’s talk about how to get it fast. Simply logging in and training manually isn’t going to cut it if you want to hit Level 100 in March 2026. You need a optimized loop.

I have spent countless hours testing different methods, and here is the most efficient strategy I have found to maximize your Fighting Pass XP.

1. The “AFK World” Method (Passive XP)

This is the backbone of any efficient grind.

Step 1: Join a private server (or a low-population public server) to reduce lag.
Step 2: Equip your best “Strength” and “Durability” training equipment.
Step 3: Go to Season 1 Island (or the highest unlocked island).
Step 4: Stand near the dumbbells (Strength) or the heavy bags (Durability).
Step 5: Crucial Step: Go to the game settings and ensure “Auto Train” is on if you have a gamepass. If you don’t, you will need to use an auto-clicker (if allowed by your hardware) or physically click every 20-30 minutes.
Why this works: The Fighting Pass XP is tied to “Stats Gained”. By constantly cycling your training, you are farming pass currency even while you are browsing the web.

2. Boss Farming for Burst XP

While AFK training is great for background gains, Bosses give a massive burst of XP and loot. Here is the rotation I use:

Preparation: Ensure you have a strong Champion equipped (I recommend using Gojo or Sukuna if you have them, or Naruto for free players).
Team Up: Bosses have much more HP now. You need a team of at least 3-4 players.
Rotation:
- Start with the Season 1 Bosses. They have the highest respawn rates.
- Use a private server and invite friends or randoms from the Official Discord.
- Cycle through every boss in the highest unlocked world.
Loot: Sell all drops immediately for Yen. Use the Yen to buy Luck Potions. Higher Luck = better drops = more Yen = more Potions.

3. Quest Stacking

Many players ignore Daily Quests because they seem tedious, but for the Fighting Pass, they are gold.

Don’t just do one quest at a time.
Stack 3 quests that align with your training. For example, if you have a “Train Strength” quest and a “Train Durability” quest, complete them back-to-back in the same training area.
The completion XP from quests scales with your player level, so doing them later in the pass yields more XP.

4. The “Chikara Shard” Loop

You need Chikara Shards to get Champions, and Champions make you farm faster.

Farm 10,000 Chikara Shards (Use the Endless S1 pass rewards at Level 10 and 40 to kickstart this).
Roll for a Cursed Spirit (S+ Tier) or any Secret with a Time Bonus.
The Time Bonus reduces your cooldowns and training times.
This mathematically compounds your XP gain per hour significantly.

Pro Tips & Common Mistakes to Avoid

I see so many players making the same mistakes that slow their progression down. Here are some tips to keep you ahead of the curve in 2026.

Mistake 1: Selling Potions Too Early

It is tempting to sell that “Strength Potion” for 50,000 Yen early on. Don’t do it. The time saved by using the potion to train Strength is worth far more than the Yen you get for selling it. Save potions for training stats that are above 10 Million, as the training time becomes unbearable there.

Mistake 2: Ignoring the “Training” Powers

In the “Powers” menu, there are specific upgrades that increase your training efficiency. Before you spend Chikara Shards on a new cosmetic Special, spend them on “Training Speed” upgrades. It is a boring investment, but it pays dividends for the rest of the season.

Pro Tip: Use Codes!

Always check for the latest Anime Fighting Simulator Codes. Developers often release codes that give free Chikara Shards or Yen. Using these codes can give you the capital needed to buy the potions required for the fast-leveling strategy I outlined above.

Game Mode Specifics: Dominating the Endless Mode

Since this is the “Endless S1” pass, it is worth touching on the Endless mode itself. This mode is distinct from the open-world grinding.

What is Endless Mode?

Endless Mode is a wave-based survival challenge where enemies get progressively stronger. It is the best source of Yen in the game, but it does not give Fighting Pass XP directly based on kills. However, the Yen you earn here allows you to buy the EXP boosts required for the pass strategies.

Strategy for Endless Mode:

Team Composition: You need a balanced team. 1 Tank, 1 Damage Dealer, and 1 Support.
Positioning: Stick together. If you split up, you will get picked off.
Saving Abilities: Don’t blow your ultimate (Special) on Wave 1 or 2. Save your big cooldowns for the Boss waves (every 5th wave).

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to the most common questions I see floating around the community regarding the Endless S1 Fighting Pass.

When does the Endless S1 Fighting Pass end?

The developers typically keep a season active for about 60 to 90 days. Since this is the Endless S1 update, expect it to run until the end of the current quarter. I recommend keeping an eye on the Official X/Twitter account for the exact expiration date.

Is it possible to complete the pass for free?

Yes, absolutely. While it will take you significantly longer than a Premium player (likely 2-3 times longer), the Free track contains enough resources (Yen and Potions) to sustain your grind. If you are free-to-play, focus heavily on the AFK training method to make up for the lack of Premium tier rewards.

Do codes give Fighting Pass XP?

No, currently codes in Anime Fighting Simulator only provide Yen and Chikara Shards. They do not provide direct XP for the Fighting Pass. However, the Chikara Shards from codes allow you to roll for better Champions, which indirectly increases your ability to farm XP.

What is the fastest way to get Chikara Shards?

Defeating Bosses: This is the most consistent method.
Selling Loot: Items dropped from bosses can be sold for Chikara Shards, not just Yen.
Quests: Daily quests often reward a small amount of Shards.
Fighting Pass: The Pass itself rewards thousands of Shards as you level it up.

Can I level up the pass after the season ends?

No. Once the season timer expires, the pass becomes inactive. You will lose access to any unrewards. Make sure you prioritize the end-game rewards (Level 100) if you are running out of time!

Conclusion

The Anime Fighting Simulator Endless S1 Fighting Pass is one of the most engaging updates we’ve seen in a while. It forces players to engage with both the new Endless mode and the classic training mechanics. Whether you are in it for the flashy new Specials or just want to flex the Level 100 title, the strategies I’ve shared above will help you get there with time to spare.

Remember, the key to success in AFS is consistency. Even 20 minutes of efficient grinding per day adds up over the season. Use the AFK method while you sleep or go to school, and use the active boss farming method when you are at your PC.

Good luck, fellow fighters! I’ll see you in the raid.
