Clear the limited-time M.A.S.T.R.R.: True Love event in Anime Expeditions, return to the lobby, then claim the Cursed Student (Manga) skin from the True Love event rewards.
To get the Cursed Student (Manga) skin in Anime Expeditions, beat the limited-time M.A.S.T.R.R.: True Love event, go back to the lobby, and claim the reward from the True Love rewards tab. The skin is not in banners or the shop; it is earned through that event clear. Here is what the skin is, the exact unlock route, and the team setups that make the run consistent.
What the Cursed Student (Manga) skin is
| Detail | Answer |
|---|---|
| Skin type | Exclusive cosmetic for the evolved Cursed Student |
| Event | M.A.S.T.R.R.: True Love (limited-time) |
| Where to claim | Events menu → True Love rewards, in the lobby |
| Effect | Cosmetic only — no stat, element, or skill change |
| Cost | Free with the event clear |
Cursed Student (Manga) is an Exclusive skin that turns the evolved Cursed Student unit into a stark black-and-white manga-panel version. It arrived with the game’s Release / Update 0 patch alongside a batch of other new skins, and it is free for anyone who finishes the event tied to it.
Before you start, make sure you have the event and the unit ready. This is a clear-to-earn reward, so the fight is the unlock.
How to unlock the Cursed Student (Manga) skin in Anime Expeditions
The unlock route is one event clear followed by a manual claim back in the lobby. Run the event first, then collect the skin from the rewards tab.
Open the Events menu
From the lobby, open Events and select the M.A.S.T.R.R.: True Love event.
Start the True Love expedition
Enter the event and begin the run with your team already set for the combo.
Clear the stage and beat the boss
Push through every wave and defeat the final boss to finish the expedition.
Return to the lobby
Head back to the lobby once the event is cleared.
Reopen Events and open the rewards tab
Open the Events menu again and go to the True Love rewards section.
Claim the Manga skin
Claim your reward to add Cursed Student (Manga) to the unit’s skin slots.
Claim the skin from Events → True Love rewards after you clear the run — it is never auto-granted, and leaving the lobby without claiming is the most common way players miss it.

Recommended teams for clearing True Love
| Approach | How to use it |
|---|---|
| Kenpachi core | Place one Kenpachi in the center of the map and every Cursed Student (Yuta) directly beside him, then max Kenpachi and stop Yuta at Upgrade 6. |
| Shop-heavy variant | Use the same Kenpachi and Cursed Student (Yuta) focus, then buy extra Cursed Students at Shop Stops to keep the combo’s damage stable into the boss. |
Whichever route you take, favor map paths with plenty of Shop Stops and Defense Stops and avoid Attack Stops. Extra Cursed Students from shops keep your damage stable through the final boss.
Common mistakes that block the skin
The biggest trap is treating this like a gacha pull. Players waste time checking banners and the shop for Cursed Student (Manga), but it only comes from the event clear. Rolling and spending will not make it appear.
The second trap sits right at the finish line: the reward is not handed to you automatically. After a successful run, reopen Events and manually claim it from the True Love rewards tab. A lot of clears get missed because players leave the lobby before claiming.
Go in with the right expectations, too. The skin will not boost your damage; Cursed Student plays exactly the same afterward because this is a visual swap and nothing more. The stage is also built around one combo rather than brute force, so walking in underprepared for the final boss stalls the run. A tight, correctly placed team beats a pile of high-power units that can’t chain the combo. A full party isn’t required either, so don’t skip the attempt just because you’re short on bodies.
Equipping the skin and what to chase next
Once it’s claimed, open Cursed Student’s cosmetic menu and equip Cursed Student (Manga) from its skin slots. The look only applies to the evolved form, so if you’ve grabbed the skin but can’t show it off yet, your next priority is owning and evolving Cursed Student (True Love).
From there, chase the other Release skins: 8th Sword (Thug), Elf Mage (Maid), and Ramen Guy (Sage) all come from their own activities. Future event rotations are also important because these Exclusive cosmetics are tied to short windows.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cursed Student (Manga) a banner or shop skin?
No. It isn’t in any gacha banner, drop pool, or shop — it’s a guaranteed reward for clearing the True Love event, so everyone who finishes the stage gets it, with no RNG involved.
Do you have to claim the skin manually after clearing the event?
Yes. Finishing the run doesn’t drop the skin into your inventory on its own; it waits in the Events → True Love rewards tab, so you can claim it there on a later session too, as long as the event is still live.
Does the Cursed Student (Manga) skin increase damage or stats?
No. It’s a purely cosmetic recolor. The evolved Cursed Student keeps the same stats, element, and skills whether the skin is equipped or not.
Can you get the skin solo?
Yes. A full party isn’t mandatory — the event can be cleared alone with a Kenpachi and Cursed Student (Yuta)-focused setup and a Shop-heavy route.
Is the Cursed Student (Manga) skin limited-time?
Yes. It’s tied to the M.A.S.T.R.R.: True Love event window, and no return date is listed once the event rotates out — so clear the stage while it’s available.
