Introduction
Anna Niki is a student in the mobile game Blue Archive, voiced by Ms. Natsumi Takamori, implemented on September 23, 2026.
She is a student of Red Winter Federal Academy, and is currently under disciplinary action, staying out of trouble in the "Special Class 183" in the old school building, where she serves as the class representative.
Character Background
She was originally an elite researcher with a promising future, but because she pushed her research through by force, she caused an accident and was ultimately assigned to Special Class 183. Her specialty is mechanical engineering, and she has been appointed as the director within the class.
She likes being recognized and praised by others, and still wears the medal she was awarded in the past with great care. Deep down, she actually hopes someone will ask about the origin of that medal.
- Origin
- Red Winter Federal Academy (transferred to Special Class 183 as a disciplinary measure)
- Specialty
- Mechanical Engineering (Class Supervisor)
- Key Settings
- She was awarded a medal and still wears it to this day; she hopes someone will ask about its origin
Personality and traits
🏅 Cherishing That Medal
She still wears the medal she was awarded in the past. On the surface it's pride, but in reality she has been waiting all along for someone to ask about its origin.
✨ Loves Being Recognized and Praised
She loves being recognized and praised by others—this is both her source of motivation and the place where she is easiest to win over.
⚙️ Mechanical Engineering Expert
Her specialty is mechanical engineering, and she serves as the supervisor of Special Class No. 183; her exclusive weapon is the crystallization of this very skill.
♻️ Her Hobby Is Resource Recycling
Her hobbies are resource recycling and framing certificates—both hobbies point to the same thing: she is used to cherishing things that others consider useless.
Skill
EX Skill: Take a Look! (Costs 6)
Deals damage equal to 1176%～2235% of ATK to 1 enemy (Lv1→Lv5). If she holds 4 "Medals," this attack becomes a guaranteed critical hit.
Normal Skill: This Is Medal-Worthy!
When our side defeats 8 enemies, gain 1 "Medal" (limited to 4 times per battle). "Medals" can stack up to 4, and each Medal increases the damage she deals by 10%～19.1%.
Passive Skill: Heat Treatment Begins!
Increases Crit by 14%–26.6%.
Assist Skill: Feels Good!
Every 50 seconds, increases PEN 12.5%～23.8% (stacks up to 3 times).
※ Mechanic explanation:The "Medal" is her core mechanic—it must be accumulated by having allies defeat enemies. Once 4 medals are collected, her EX skill can deal a guaranteed critical hit.

Character Reviews
Anna is alight-armored single-target piercing damage dealer, and the core of her mechanics lies in "Medals": each time our side defeats 8 enemies, she gains 1 Medal (up to 4 times per battle), and only after collecting all 4 does her EX skill "Take a Look!" become a guaranteed critical hit.
This also determines how she is used—she is a classicslow-burn character. Collecting all 4 Medals requires defeating a total of 32 enemies, and stacking the Medals to full also takes about 2 minutes 30 seconds, so she can only truly perform in long battles that require clearing large numbers of enemies. Conversely, in short battles with few enemies, she struggles to unleash her full firepower.
Her support skill stacks a piercing effect every 50 seconds (up to 3 times, for a total of up to 71.4%), and combined with her passive crit value increase, this gives her quite good compatibility against heavily armored targets. In terms of development, if you want to use her as a main damage dealer, you will usually aim for her innate ★4.
As for her character setting, her "Medals" are not just a skill mechanic but also the core of her personality—someone who cherishes past glory yet hopes someone will ask about its origins. The mechanic and the character design are consistent here, which is a rather elegant piece of design for her.
"Her Medals are both a damage bonus and the very thing she most wants to be asked about—a person who wears her worries on her chest happens to also be the one who needs the most time to unleash her full power."
