Anubis Requiem Overview & Video Guide
Anubis Requiem stands as one of the most visually striking and mechanically complex stands in the 2026 Sakura Stand meta. As a sword-based evolution of the classic Anubis, it trades pure speed for dimensional manipulation and a terrifying execution passive. Obtaining sakura stand anubis requiem is a rite of passage for many players, involving a lengthy grind for worthiness and a test of nerves during its unique horror-themed acquisition sequence.

Anubis Requiem is not just a cosmetic upgrade; its ability to bypass blocks and counters makes it a top-tier choice for competitive PvP encounters in Sakura Stand.
Prerequisites and Obtainment Mechanics
Before you can even attempt to reach the Requiem state, you must fulfill several strict requirements. The most important factor is your Worthiness percentage. While you can attempt the ritual with lower worth, the risk is high: your Worthiness percentage directly correlates to your success rate. For instance, 50% Worthiness gives you a 50% chance of success.
| Requirement | Details | Importance |
|---|---|---|
| Base Stand | Must have Anubis currently equipped | Mandatory |
| Worthiness | Recommended 100% (obtained from boxes or Chariot Requiem) | High |
| Weather | Must be a Thunderstorm (not just regular rain) | Mandatory |
| Item | Thunder Ring (spawns during Thunderstorms) | Mandatory |
| Pity System | Rain chance increases every 10 minutes until a storm occurs | Useful |
The weather system in Sakura Stand is the primary gatekeeper for this stand. Rain has a 1/8 chance to appear every 10 minutes in any season except Summer. Within that rain, there is a further 1/24 chance for it to escalate into a Thunderstorm.
If you attempt the ritual and fail due to low Worthiness, the game will consume 1/8 of your total worth. To avoid hours of wasted grinding, it is highly recommended to farm until you reach a guaranteed 100% Worthiness.
The Ritual: Step-by-Step Obtainment
Once you have your base Anubis and 100% Worthiness, you must wait for the skies to darken. The transition from rain to a storm is distinct, marked by heavy thunder and lightning. During this time, a Thunder Ring will spawn somewhere on the main map.
Locate the Thunder Ring
Search the main map during a Thunderstorm. The ring is a glowing interactable object. Ensure Anubis is your active stand before clicking it.
Enter the Dark Dimension
Upon interaction, you are transported to a pitch-black area. This is a scripted horror sequence. Strange noises, floating eyes, and chairs will appear as the area slowly lights up.
Complete the QTEs
As the ritual progresses, Quick-Time Events (QTEs) will appear on your screen. You must complete these successfully to survive the transition. Failing these may result in being kicked out of the dimension.
The Final Slash
After roughly five minutes of the horror sequence, the dimension will appear to "break" with multiple slashes across the sky. You will then be teleported back to the main map with Anubis Requiem in your inventory.
If you find the Thunderstorm spawn rate too frustrating, the Thunder Ring can also be dropped by the Paper Curse: Final Boss, though the drop rate is an abysmal 0.01%. Stick to the weather cycles for better odds.
Combat Mastery: Moveset and Passives
The sakura stand anubis requiem is defined by its three unique passives. Unlike other stands that rely solely on damage, Anubis Requiem utilizes a "hit counter" system that rewards aggressive, consistent pressure.
| Passive Name | Effect Description | Tactical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Inner Demon | Hits add a blue counter; 30 hits = Instant Death | Forces enemies to play defensively |
| Sharpest Blade | Bypasses and removes enemy blocks on hit | Prevents turtling and defensive play |
| Dimensional Damage | Bypasses counters and most I-frame skills | Counters high-mobility and reactionary specs |
Core Moveset (Base Form)
The base moveset focuses on dimensional manipulation and area denial. While the M1 swings are relatively slow, they are essential for stacking the Inner Demon passive.
| Key | Move Name | Description | Damage/Hits |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMB | M1 Combo | A 4-hit slow swing combo | 10 Damage per hit |
| E | Dimension Corruption | Dashes back and creates a time bubble | 0 Base (16 in Awakening) |
| R | Dimensional Stab | A forward thrust that flips the blade | 16 Damage (+2 Hits) |
| T | Energy Slash | Slams the ground to create an exploding shockwave | 4-6 Shockwave Damage |
| Y | Dimensional Hop | Stabs the ground to trap enemies in a pocket dimension | Disables enemy skills |
| H | Dimension Slash | Large radius freeze that destroys the dimension | 0 Base (28 in Awakening) |
| Z | Gate | Teleportation move using specific phrases | Utility/Movement |
Use Dimensional Hop (Y) to trap enemies who rely on high-cooldown skills. Once trapped and unable to use abilities, you can safely stack your M1 hits to trigger the Inner Demon execution.
Sanity Break: The Awakening
By pressing G, the user enters the Sanity Break state. This is more than just a stat boost; it fundamentally changes the appearance and lethality of Anubis Requiem. The user grows horns, summons a second blade, and the iconic theme "Bury the Light" begins to play.
Enhanced Damage
Many moves that deal zero damage in base form (like Dimension Corruption) become lethal during Sanity Break.
Modified Moveset
The R move transforms into Cross Blade, a dual-slash that causes reality to break, dealing 16 damage and adding 2 hits to the counter.
Dimensional Mastery
The H move (Dimension Slash) now deals a massive 28 damage in its radius, making it one of the strongest AOE attacks in the game.
The Penalty
When the awakening ends, the user falls to the ground for 3 seconds, leaving them completely vulnerable to counter-attacks.
Only use Sanity Break when you are certain you can finish the fight or have enough distance to recover during the 3-second stun penalty at the end.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the best way to get 100% Worthiness for Anubis Requiem?
The most reliable method is farming boxes scattered around the map or repeatedly defeating Chariot Requiem. Each item or kill adds to your worthiness, which is essential for a 100% success rate during the Thunder Ring ritual.
Q: Does the Inner Demon passive work on NPCs?
No, the Inner Demon passive (which kills the target after 30 hits) only functions against other players. NPCs are immune to the instant-death mechanic but still take standard damage from the moveset.
Q: Can I get Anubis Requiem without waiting for a Thunderstorm?
Yes, but it is extremely rare. You can obtain a Thunder Ring as a 0.01% drop from the Paper Curse: Final Boss. However, for 99% of players, waiting for the 1/192 probability of a Thunderstorm is the faster route.
Q: What happens if I fail the QTEs in the dark dimension?
Failing the Quick-Time Events during the horror sequence can result in the ritual failing. If this happens, you will be teleported back to the map without the stand, and you will need to find another Thunder Ring during a storm.
