To perfect loop Gowther and Megumi, cast Megumi’s Shadow Realm first, turn auto on, then trigger Gowther’s rewind when Megumi’s rewind timer drops to about 49 so the next rewind windows alternate cleanly.
The Gowther and Megumi perfect loop is a timing setup for keeping enemies repeatedly stalled instead of spending both rewind effects in the same window. The goal is simple: start with Megumi’s Shadow Realm, offset Gowther’s rewind, and let auto cycling carry the alternating rewind pattern from there.

What the Gowther and Megumi loop does
The loop works by spacing two rewind abilities so enemies get pulled back in separate windows. Megumi’s Shadow Realm starts the control chain, then Gowther fills the next gap instead of overlapping with it.
That spacing is what makes it a perfect loop: enemies keep getting stalled through repeated rewind checks while both units stay synced on auto. It is especially useful in Expedition mode, which unlocks at account level 20, because longer enemy paths and pressure waves reward clean control timing.
Requirements for the Gowther and Megumi loop
| Requirement | Use |
|---|---|
| Megumi with Shadow Realm | Starts the loop and rewinds enemies in range by 50% of Megumi’s Range. |
| Gowther with his active unlocked | Adds the offset rewind window after Megumi’s first cast. |
| Auto timing | Keeps both rewind users cycling after the manual setup. |
| Overlapping range | Keeps the same enemies inside both units’ rewind coverage. |
| Bamboo equipment | Uses a separate timing pattern after the 10% decrease. |
KEY!You need both active rewind tools ready before trying the setup. Gowther must have the upgrade that unlocks his active, listed as Complete Control in ability data and sometimes called Rewrite Complete Control; maxing his upgrades costs about 56,000 in-match cash.
Wait the extra second before firing Gowther if the timer is sitting near the mark but the spacing has not cleared; rushing the cast is what desyncs the loop.
How to set up the Gowther and Megumi rewind loop in Anime Expeditions
This setup uses Megumi first, then Gowther once the rewind timer has dropped far enough for the two windows to alternate.
STEP 1/8
Cast Megumi’s Shadow Realm
Use Megumi’s Shadow Realm first so the loop starts from Megumi’s longer rewind cycle.
STEP 2/8
Turn auto on
Turn on auto right after Shadow Realm so Megumi can continue cycling without another manual input.
STEP 3/8
Watch for 49
Let the rewind timer drop until it is around 49.
STEP 4/8
Use Gowther’s rewind
Trigger Gowther at the offset timing, waiting one extra second, or sometimes two, so the 10-second spacing clears.
STEP 5/8
Let Gowther cycle
Gowther should come back around and use rewind again as the setup starts repeating.
STEP 6/8
Let Megumi follow
Megumi should also rewind in the next window, keeping the two effects separated.
STEP 7/8
Check the second loop
When the next rewind lands cleanly, the Gowther and Megumi cycle is synced.
STEP 8/8
Stop after Megumi’s limit
Megumi cannot rewind the same enemy more than twice, so do not expect that same target to keep getting pulled forever.

Bamboo equipment timing for Gowther and Megumi
Bamboo equipment changes the setup because the timing has to account for the 10% decrease. Use this variant only when you are actually running the bamboo setup; the normal 49 timing is for the non-bamboo loop.
How to time the bamboo Gowther and Megumi rewind loop in Anime Expeditions
The bamboo version starts later on the timer, then uses a short delay before the second rewind.
- Sync after the decrease — After the 10% decrease, prepare the rewind timing instead of using the normal 49 mark.
- Use rewind at 54 — Fire the first rewind when the timer is around 54.
- Wait the 10 seconds — Let the 10-second spacing run out before touching the next rewind.
- Hold the extra delay — Wait a little longer until the timer reaches about 44 or 43.
- Use the other rewind immediately — Trigger the other rewind right away with both Gowther and Megumi on auto.
- Confirm the sync — If the follow-up rewind lands after the next 10-second window, the bamboo loop is synced.
Gowther and Megumi timing cheat sheet
| Setup | Timing |
|---|---|
| Normal loop | Megumi first, auto on, Gowther at about 49. |
| Bamboo loop | First rewind at about 54, then the other at 44-43. |
KEY!The 10-second value is the loop spacing used for the rewind windows. Gowther and Megumi still have their own active cooldowns, so treat the number as the timing gap for syncing the loop, not as the full ability cooldown shown in every ability table.
Mistakes that break the Gowther and Megumi loop
The biggest mistake is casting both rewinds together. That stacks the stall into one moment and leaves the next window empty, which defeats the point of pairing Gowther with Megumi.
Another common failure is using Gowther too early. If the previous rewind spacing has not cleared, the next rewind window does not line up cleanly, so the auto cycle starts drifting instead of alternating.
Also check the basics before blaming the timing: both units need auto active at the right moment, bamboo timing should only be used with bamboo equipment, and the units need shared coverage so rewound enemies do not leave one unit’s range before the next effect fires.
Frequently Asked Questions
What timer number should I use for the normal Gowther and Megumi loop?
Use about 49 for the normal loop. If the window feels tight, wait the extra second so Gowther fires after the spacing fully clears.
What changes when using bamboo equipment?
Bamboo uses the 54 starting point after its decrease, then shifts the next rewind to about 44-43 instead of using the normal 49 setup.
Why does the loop fail if I use Gowther too early?
Gowther needs to land in the next rewind window, not inside Megumi’s previous one. Firing early compresses both effects into the same control window and breaks the alternating rhythm.
Do both Gowther and Megumi need auto turned on?
Yes. Auto is what lets the setup keep cycling after the initial manual timing, so leaving either unit off auto can stop the loop from continuing.
And Megumi rewind the same enemy more than twice?
No. The same enemy can be affected by Megumi’s rewind up to twice, so the loop is about extending control across the wave, not rewinding one target endlessly.
