The Anima affinity is one of several affinities in the Fire Emblem series. It gives a minor bonus to attack and defense, as well as a decent boost to avoid and dodge. Supports that include this affinity are recommended for giving an extra edge to good characters.
The Anima affinity is present in The Binding Blade, The Blazing Blade and The Sacred Stones.
