The Candy Bowl Defense Mode is one of the biggest additions in the Anime Last Stand Halloween Part 2 Update, offering some of the best rewards and meta units ever added to the game. This guide breaks down exactly how the mode works, how to farm rewards efficiently, and which units and titles make it worth grinding — whether you’re a new player or a veteran looking to stack resources fast.
Anime Last Stand Candy Bowl Defense Mode Guide (Halloween Pt)
Mode Name: Candy Bowl Defense
Event: Halloween Part 2
Type: Infinite Defense Mode
Main Rewards:
- Halloween Cookies (used in event shop/summons)
- Bingo Stamps
- Soul Chests
- Capsules (contains rare and meta units)
Unlike other events, you cannot “beat” this mode — it’s purely infinite, designed for long survival runs and passive farming.
1. Meta Units Available from Candy Bowl Defense
You can earn Halloween Cookies and summon or purchase top-tier units including:
- King of Darkness
- Warrior of Miracles
- The Absolute
- Remaru → Evolves into Godly Remaru (one of the strongest new units in the update)
Each of these units ranks high in the current meta, making this mode absolutely worth grinding.
How the Mode Works
Infinite Structure
The Candy Bowl Defense mode is endless — waves continue until you lose.
There’s no victory condition. Your goal is simply to farm as many Halloween Cookies as possible before defeat.
Leaving Early
You can leave anytime — your Halloween Cookies and Bingo Stamps are saved immediately.
This means you don’t have to lose or finish a run to keep your rewards.
Titles with Buffs
Three new event titles come with this mode, each giving a bonus to Candy and Cookie farming.
The Wave 250 Title is the most important:
Bonus: +125% Candy Baskets and Halloween Cookies
Use: Works in both Halloween Part 1 and Part 2 modes
Getting this title drastically increases your farming rate, so reaching Wave 250 should be a primary goal.
Candy Bar System Explained
You’ll notice a Candy Bar meter on the screen — here’s what it means:
- The Candy Bar = your base HP.
- When enemies hit your base, the Candy count increases.
- If your Candy Bar reaches 2000, you instantly lose the run.
This system prevents players from overloading the server by surviving for thousands of waves, effectively ending the run once the limit is reached.
Important:
- You don’t gain extra rewards for reaching 2000 candies.
- It’s simply a server safeguard, not a bonus condition.
Strategy & Farming Tips
1. AFK Farming
- This mode is perfect for AFK sessions since rewards are saved even if you leave early.
- You can technically AFK with no units placed, though it’s extremely slow.
- For efficient farming, place a few strong AoE units and auto-upgrade farms.
2. Reward Scaling
- Rewards scale with wave progress, not performance.
- The further you get, the more cookies and capsules you’ll earn per run.
3. Unit Buff Synergy
- Certain event units receive buffs when used in Candy Bowl Defense.
- Equip the buffed units to boost efficiency — this significantly improves survival time and currency gain.
The Candy Bowl Defense Mode is hands-down the most rewarding and accessible game mode in Anime Last Stand right now. It combines casual AFK farming with high-end rewards that benefit both new players and endgame grinders alike.
