I'll take a stab and say nitrogen. But I think that your best bet for reviving that plant is to prune off the dead/dieing leaves and put it in a well lit tank with a proper nutrient balance. Don't go oversupplementing or anything. Just put it in the tank that grows plants the best for you and give it a month and it should recover just fine.

if i prune the leaves... will the plant grow new leaves faster?really happy with this plant though...
its really hard to find anubias here
my other anubias are doing well
I can't really say whether it will accelerate growth, but the plant will stop pouring energy into dieing leaves, plus it will look better. Just prune off the really sad looking ones, the pic looked like the plant had several nice green leaves to work with. Anubia are slow growing in general, so be patient with it.
