ANOMALITH Guide | All Anomalization Skills and How to Unlock Them

ANOMALITH features a unique combat system combining firearms with supernatural abilities known as Anomalization Skills. These powers allow Reona Minazuki to perform devastating attacks, deflect incoming damage, and gain advantages against dangerous Anomalies.

There are 12 Anomalization Skills available in the game, covering offensive, defensive, and specialized combat abilities. While some unlock automatically through story progression, others require specific materials and OV currency.

This ANOMALITH All Anomalization Skills Guide covers the documented skills, their effects, unlock requirements, and how to upgrade them for combat.

How to Unlock Anomalization Skills in ANOMALITH

Anomalization Skills are unlocked through story progression and the development system at Base.

Most additional skills require players to recover Anomalous Objects during Dives and spend the necessary materials and OV currency at the Base computer.

To unlock additional skills:

• Complete Main Missions: Progress through the story to obtain starting abilities.
• Collect Anomalous Objects: Explore Anomaly Zones for required materials.
• Return to Base: Access the skill development system.
• Purchase Available Skills: Spend OV and the required materials.
• Upgrade Existing Abilities: Improve supported skills through additional development.

Some abilities also require previously unlocked skills, making progression important.

All Anomalization Skills in ANOMALITH

ANOMALITH features 12 supernatural abilities, but the currently documented Japanese gameplay database does not provide a complete verified list of their individual names and requirements.

The following sections cover the skills with identifiable effects and acquisition methods.

Ripper Slash – Starting Offensive Skill

• Category: Attack
• MP Cost: 30
• Unlock Requirement: Automatically obtained during Joint Duty for New Investigators.

Ripper Slash transforms Reona's arm into a deadly claw, allowing her to perform a forward-moving slash.

This ability is particularly useful when enemies approach close range.

Players can also unlock an enhancement that allows an additional strike.

Upgrade Requirements:

• Happiness Chocolate Bar ×1
• Radiant Tablets ×1
• Connecting Tile ×2
• OV ×1,000

The enhanced version provides additional offensive pressure during close-range encounters.

Ground Spike – Area Damage Skill

• Category: Attack
• MP Cost: 35
• Required Skill: Ripper Slash

Ground Spike generates dangerous spikes that travel along the ground, damaging enemies across a wider area.

Although its damage is moderate, the attack provides useful coverage against approaching opponents.

Unlock Requirements:

• Happiness Chocolate Bar ×1
• Radiant Tablets ×1
• Slimy Hide ×2
• OV ×1,000

Ground Spike is worth considering when dealing with multiple enemies because its attack covers more space than Ripper Slash.

Parry – Defensive Counter Skill

• Category: Defense
• MP Cost: 15
• Unlock Requirement: Automatically obtained during Joint Duty for New Investigators.

Parry allows Reona to deflect an enemy attack immediately before impact, preventing damage and creating an opportunity to retaliate.

After a successful parry, aiming can automatically align Reona's firearm with the enemy's weak point.

This makes Parry particularly useful against aggressive melee enemies.

Carefully manage MP rather than activating the skill repeatedly without observing enemy attack timing.

Track Shot – Homing Projectile Skill

• Category: Shooting
• MP Cost: 30
• Required Skill: None

Track Shot fires three projectiles that automatically pursue enemies.

Although the individual projectiles deal relatively low damage, their tracking capabilities provide additional offensive flexibility.

Unlock Requirements:

• Happiness Chocolate Bar ×1
• Radiant Tablets ×1
• Slimy Hide ×1
• OV ×2,400

Track Shot is useful when maintaining pressure against enemies that are difficult to hit consistently.

It also complements conventional firearms by providing an alternative attack option.

Brutal Raid – Stagger Follow-Up Skill

• Category: Martial Arts
• MP Cost: 0
• Unlock Requirement: Automatically obtained during Joint Duty for New Investigators.

Brutal Raid allows Reona to perform a powerful close-range follow-up against staggered enemies.

When an enemy becomes vulnerable, approach and activate the interaction prompt to perform the attack.

The ability provides additional damage and can create opportunities for further attacks.

An available upgrade adds a shockwave that damages nearby enemies.

Upgrade Requirements:

• Half-Full Canned Juice ×1
• Bountiful Potato Chips ×1
• Connecting Tile ×1
• OV ×500

This enhancement is useful during encounters involving multiple enemies.

No Mercy – Powerful Transformation Skill

• Category: Anomalization Release
• MP Cost: 0
• Unlock Requirement: Defeat Shirayamigata and obtain its required material.

No Mercy is one of the most powerful documented supernatural abilities in ANOMALITH.

Reona transforms both arms into monstrous claws before unleashing a devastating combination of slashes.

Unlock Requirements:

• Shirayamigata's Shadowless Lamp ×1
• OV ×5,000

Unlike ordinary MP-consuming skills, No Mercy uses a cooldown system.

Its cooldown decreases naturally over time and can also be shortened through successful attacks.

The ability provides protection during its attack animation, making it useful against dangerous enemies.

What About the Remaining Anomalization Skills?

The game confirms 12 Anomalization Skills, divided into attack, defense, shooting, and special combat functions

However, the available documentation does not yet establish every remaining skill's name, MP cost, and unlock materials.

Players should check the skill development screen at Base for the exact requirements of abilities not covered above.

Some passive upgrades also appear in the development system, but these should not automatically be counted as separate active Anomalization Skills.

Best Tips for Unlocking and Upgrading Skills

Skill development requires careful resource management because materials are also useful for other upgrades.

• Prioritize obtaining starting abilities through story progression.
• Collect Anomalous Objects during every expedition.
• Upgrade frequently used abilities before purchasing unnecessary enhancements.
• Keep enough OV available for important weapon upgrades.
• Unlock offensive and defensive abilities to maintain combat flexibility.

For beginners, improving Ripper Slash and learning Parry timing are practical starting priorities.

Final Thoughts

ANOMALITH features 12 Anomalization Skills that expand Reona's combat capabilities beyond traditional firearms.

Ripper Slash, Parry, and Brutal Raid become available through early story progression, while Ground Spike, Track Shot, and No Mercy require additional resources or boss encounters.
