Scrap Bluntsword is a Vanguard-tier Familiar for NotGoodGuy (Free), and it is bought directly from the Wrath Event Shop rather than earned as a random drop. The full route is simple once you know the currency target: clear the 15-wave Wrath Event until you have 1,000 Wrath Coins, purchase the Familiar, then select NotGoodGuy (Free) in the Familiar menu and confirm that the button changes from Equip to Unequip.
What Is Scrap Bluntsword in Anime Vanguards?
Scrap Bluntsword was added with the September 12, 2026 Wrath's End update as one of five new Vanguard Familiars. It is unit-bound, so NotGoodGuy (Free) is the only valid target. The (Free) tag is part of the unit's name, not a sign that the Familiar costs nothing.
The Familiar is meant to reshape how NotGoodGuy (Free) uses its kit, with Dragon Install-related changes, a reworked Hell attack, and stronger interactions with Fire allies, Burns, meter, and other Guilty Cog units. You do not need to memorize every effect to use it: before you equip Scrap Bluntsword, make sure the correct NotGoodGuy (Free) unit is available, since the Familiar is unit-bound.
How to Farm Wrath Coins for Scrap Bluntsword
You can enter the activity from the central lobby by speaking with the History's Strongest NPC near the Group beacon tower and The Doctor, then choosing Wrath Event. If you prefer the menu route, open Event → Special Event → Wrath Event and press the green Play button.
Choose a difficulty and one Sin before the first wave, then clear all 15 waves in Shining Castle. The base reward is 100 Wrath Coins on Normal or 200 on Hard, so the number of runs needed from zero is:
| Difficulty | Waves per clear | Wrath Coins per clear | Clears for 1,000 coins* |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 15 | 100 | 10 |
| Hard | 15 | 200 | 5 |
These are straightforward totals from the listed base payouts. Existing Wrath Coins, bonuses, or other rewards can change how many clears you personally need.
For the full event route and Sin explanations, see the Anime Vanguards Wrath Event guide. This guide only needs the 15-wave clear and the payout that funds Scrap Bluntsword.
How to Buy Scrap Bluntsword in Anime Vanguards
Once you have 1,000 Wrath Coins, return to the Wrath Event menu and open the Wrath Event Shop. Find the Scrap Bluntsword card rather than the cheaper shard or reroll entries, which cost 10 coins.
- Select Scrap Bluntsword in the Wrath Event Shop.
- Confirm the purchase for 1,000 Wrath Coins.
- Check your Familiar inventory before leaving the menu. The item should now be available to equip.
The shop listing is the important confirmation here. Scrap Bluntsword is a fixed-price event-shop purchase, not a random roll or a pity reward. Because event availability can change, confirm that the card is still listed before farming the full coin total.
How to Equip Scrap Bluntsword to NotGoodGuy (Free)
After buying the Familiar, use either of the game's equivalent Familiar entry points: open Units → Familiars, or select NotGoodGuy (Free) and open its Familiar slot. Then complete the target selection so the item is attached to the compatible unit.
- Select Scrap Bluntsword in the Familiar menu.
- Press Equip.
- Choose NotGoodGuy (Free) as the target unit.
- Press Select to confirm the attachment.
Return to the Familiar card after confirming. A successful equip changes the button from Equip to Unequip, and the NotGoodGuy (Free) unit card or passive display should reflect the attachment. If the button still says Equip, repeat the target selection and make sure you chose the (Free) version of NotGoodGuy. The Familiar cannot be equipped to a different unit.
Once the button shows Unequip, place the equipped NotGoodGuy (Free) in the loadout you want to use and inspect its Familiar or passive details before spending more Wrath Coins.
