What Is the Anime Vanguards Summer Event?
The Anime Vanguards Summer Event returns bigger than ever in 2026.

Whether you’re chasing Godly Ascension or just want to stockpile Summer Iced Tea, this guide covers every aspect of the current Anime Vanguards Summer Event. We’ll go over how to access the event, the best farming methods (including AFK macro strategies), the Summer Shop inventory, and a full table of all 13 events.
How to Access the Summer Event in Anime Vanguards
Accessing the summer event is straightforward, but knowing the exact portal location saves you time:
- Launch Anime Vanguards on Roblox.
- From the main hub, look for the glowing Summer Portal (usually near the spawn area or the Seasonal NPC).
- Interact with the portal and select “Enter Summer Event” – you’ll be teleported to the event map.
- If you can’t find the portal, check the in-game announcements or talk to the Seasonal Shop NPC, who will also guide you.
Players who joined during the 2025 summer event will notice a refreshed map design with new wave-based challenges and a revamped shop interface.
Summer Event Currency & Shop
The primary currency for the summer event is Summer Iced Tea. This item drops from event portals and can be spent at the Summer Shop for exclusive rewards. The shop rotates items periodically, but the core offerings remain the same.
| Item | Cost (Summer Iced Tea) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Godly Ascension Ticket | 15,000 | Unlocks the Godly Ascension trial for a unit. |
| Summer Skin Crate | 5,000 | Grants a random limited summer skin. |
| Trait Reroll Token | 2,000 | Rerolls a unit’s trait (common guarantee). |
| Banner Summon Token | 1,000 | Summon from the summer banner (10× guaranteed epic+). |
| XP Boost (2× for 1 hour) | 500 | Doubles unit XP earned in any mode. |
| Summer Emote | 250 | Emote – seasonal. |
Tip: Always save your Summer Iced Tea for high-value items like Godly Ascension Tickets or exclusive skins – the token summons can be farmed later.
Best Farming Methods for Maximum Currency
Players have discovered several optimized routes for earning Summer Iced Tea quickly. Based on community reports and recent video guides, here are the top three methods.
| Method | Currency per Hour | Difficulty | Best Units Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Summer Portal AFK Macro | 300k – 400k | Easy (requires macro tool) | Any high-DPS AoE units (e.g., Sukuna, Gojo) |
| Summer Iced Tea Speed Farm (Active) | 500k – 600k | Medium | Fully upgraded Sukuna & Gojo, stamina pots |
| Challenge Reroll Grind (AFK) | 200k – 250k | Very Easy | No specific units – macro does challenges |
The 600K Per Hour Summer Iced Tea Method (featured in multiple YouTube guides) uses a specific unit rotation and portal pathing that speeds up wave completion. For AFK players, the Summer Portals macro (available through community Discord servers) automates the entire farm, including challenge rerolls.
AFK Farming & Macros – Community Tips
Many players prefer to AFK the summer event to maximize rewards without constant gameplay. While macro usage is not officially supported, it’s widely used. Below is a comparison of common approaches.
| Tool/Macro | Features | Account Safety Risk |
|---|---|---|
| AutoHotkey (AHK) script | Simple, runs in the background, can automate challenge rerolls. | Low – if used conservatively and with delays. |
| Roblox executor (external) | More powerful – can automate unit placement, movement. | High – likely to get banned. |
| Built-in Roblox macro (mobile) | Tap recorder – record a loop of portal farming. | Medium – detectable by anti-cheat. |
Community recommendation: Use a lightweight AHK script that only repeats portal entries and challenge rerolls. Avoid full map navigation macros that mimic human movement poorly.

Frequently Asked Questions
When did the Anime Vanguards Summer Event start in 2026?
The current Anime Vanguards Summer Event began on June 21, 2026, with the launch of Update 13.5. It replaced the earlier Godly Ascension event and will run until the end of August.
How can I get Summer Iced Tea quickly?
The fastest active method yields 500k–600k Summer Iced Tea per hour using Sukuna and Gojo in the Iced Tea Invasion challenge. For AFK players, a summer portal macro can earn up to 400k per hour, but be aware of potential account risks.
Can I AFK farm the Anime Vanguards Summer Event safely?
Yes, many players use AutoHotkey scripts to repeat portal waves and reroll challenges. To minimize risk, keep the macro simple, add random delays, and never leave it running for more than a few hours at a time.
What are the best units for the summer event?
Sukuna and Gojo remain top-tier for clearing waves quickly due to their massive AoE damage. If you don’t have them, any evolved mythic unit with wide attacks (e.g., Lancer, Saber) will work, but expect lower currency rates.
