Become an Anime Billionaire Kiriko Unit Guide
Redeem, place, and maximize the exclusive code unit before you roll away your head start.
Kiriko is the flagship code-exclusive unit in Become an Anime Billionaire. Unlike units you roll randomly, Kiriko arrives directly from the active code thisissecret and immediately joins your roster as a passive income generator. This guide explains how to claim Kiriko, where to place her in your base, how she compares on the Tier List, and what happens after rebirth. Last verified July 29, 2026 alongside the Codes page — the code still works and no replacement exclusive has been announced.
How to get Kiriko
Kiriko is currently obtainable only through the thisissecret promo code. There is no confirmed shop purchase or roll pool entry for this character at the time of writing.
- Open Become an Anime Billionaire on Roblox.
- Tap the Code button in the bottom-left corner.
- Enter
thisissecretexactly — capitalization matters. - Press Claim! and confirm the reward message.
- Find Kiriko in your inventory and place her in an open base slot.
Redeem before starting heavy rolling so Kiriko earns while you spend currency elsewhere. Pair this step with tyfor10k and bonusgift on the Codes hub for ten extra Friendship Lucky Blocks that fill remaining slots.
Why Kiriko matters early
Code exclusives like Kiriko solve the slowest part of any tycoon run: the first empty minutes where your base produces almost nothing. Kiriko generates cash per minute like any other unit, but you receive her without spending roll currency. That frees your starting cash for upgrades, rebirth savings, or merge-machine gems later.
Early-game priorities with Kiriko:
- Place her immediately — An unplaced Kiriko produces zero income.
- Keep her through replacements — Swap weaker units around Kiriko, not Kiriko herself, until a clear upgrade appears on the Tier List.
- Do not rebirth before placing — Rebirth wipes placements; claim and place Kiriko first every session.
- Screenshot your code confirmation — If inventory glitches, support channels may ask for proof of redemption.
Kiriko income and tier placement
Kiriko sits in the Exclusive rarity band alongside other code or event units. Exclusives vary in raw income, but code units typically outperform equal-rarity rolls because developers tune them as milestone rewards. Compare Kiriko’s displayed cash-per-minute against whatever occupies your weakest slot.
Use this quick comparison workflow:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Note Kiriko’s income rate in the unit tooltip |
| 2 | Check your lowest earner in the base |
| 3 | If Kiriko beats that unit, keep her placed |
| 4 | When a roll beats Kiriko, move her to bench storage only if the replacement is strictly better |
| 5 | Revisit after updates — balance patches can shift exclusive value |
For broader rankings, read the Tier List and the Players hub section on exclusive units.
Kiriko and Friendship Lucky Blocks
The other July 2026 codes grant Lucky Blocks, not duplicate Kiriko copies. You cannot merge five Kirikos at the merge machine unless you somehow obtain duplicates through future events — plan fusion around rolled units instead.
Recommended order after redeeming all codes:
- Place Kiriko.
- Open Lucky Blocks strategically (see the Lucky Blocks guide).
- Fill every slot before offline logging.
- Fuse duplicates once you hold five matching non-exclusive units.
This sequence maximizes total income because Kiriko and block rewards stack instead of competing for the same currency.
Kiriko after rebirth
Rebirth resets cash and base placements but does not delete Kiriko from inventory. You must manually place her again after each rebirth to restart passive income. Code items persist across rebirth the same way other inventory units do.
Timing tips:
- Re-place Kiriko immediately after rebirth before rolling again.
- If you rebirth with an empty base, you lose minutes of compounded income — see the Rebirth guide checklist.
- Offline multipliers from rebirth points amplify Kiriko once she is back in the base.
Kiriko vs other exclusives
Become an Anime Billionaire may add more code exclusives during milestones. When new codes drop:
- Redeem instantly on the Codes page.
- Compare each exclusive’s income rate before replacing Kiriko.
- Keep Kiriko until a newer exclusive clearly wins on the Tier List.
Watch the Events hub and Updates hub for limited-time units that might outperform code rewards temporarily.
Common Kiriko mistakes
- Redeeming but never placing — Kiriko in inventory earns nothing.
- Typing the code wrong — Use
thisissecretlowercase;Thisissecretfails. - Replacing Kiriko with a weaker roll — Compare numbers, not rarity color alone.
- Rebirthing with Kiriko unplaced — You still own her, but income stops until repositioned.
- Ignoring other codes — Blocks from
tyfor10kandbonusgiftaccelerate progress more than Kiriko alone.
Advanced tips
- Session routine — Codes → place Kiriko → Lucky Blocks → roll → merge duplicates.
- Discord monitoring — Join the official Discord; new exclusives often appear in the updates channel first.
- Patch day — Read Updates before swapping Kiriko out; buffs to exclusives are common after milestones.
- Tools checklist — Use the Tools page rebirth timing table once Kiriko fills your early slots.
